Online Therapy Services Offered in San Jose, CA

  • Grief and loss counseling: Therapy for coping with grief aims to help people process the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive burdens that accompany loss.
  • Family therapy: Therapy can be a family affair! Family therapists specialize in strengthening communication and resolving conflicts between loved ones. They offer a neutral, third-party perspective for families handling complicated disagreements.
  • Anger and stress management: With the help of a licensed counselor, you can learn to process feelings of frustration and work through them productively.
  • Life coaching and career counseling: Life coaches can help you set professional and personal goals, reach new opportunities, and live your best life.

I have had excellent help from Thriveworks. Administrative assistance has been prompt and courteous; even when circumstances necessitated a provider switch (due to my provider leaving the business for another opportunity), this change was handled efficiently. Meetings have brought me to a much better place than I was at a year ago. Thanks for everything!
