Types of Therapists Available Through Sierra Meadows
At Sierra Meadows, we employ a diverse team of licensed professionals so you can receive care that fits your goals and personality:
Psychologists (Ph.D. or Psy.D.)
Education: Doctoral-level training in psychology, including extensive study in assessment, research, and psychotherapy.
- Strengths:
- Highly skilled in psychological testing and diagnosis, helping identify complex or overlapping conditions
- Trained in a wide range of evidence-based modalities such as CBT, ACT, and trauma-focused therapy.
- Limitation:
- While they provide therapy and assessments, psychologists do not prescribe medication (unless holding additional medical credentials).
Psychologists are often a great fit for clients who want a deeper understanding of their patterns, behaviors, and emotional processes.
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs)
Education: Master’s degree in marriage and family therapy or counseling psychology, plus clinical training in relationship systems.
- Strengths:
- Experts in relationship dynamics, communication skills, and family systems.
- Provide both individual and relational therapy, addressing how interactions impact emotional well-being.
- Limitation:
- LMFTs may have less emphasis on psychological assessment or testing than psychologists
LMFTs are an excellent choice for those navigating conflict, couples counseling, parenting challenges, or family-related stressors.
Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs)
Education: Master’s degree in social work with specialized training in mental health and community-based care.
- Strengths:
- Combine psychotherapy with practical problem-solving, resource coordination, and crisis intervention.
- Excel at helping clients navigate life changes, build coping skills, and access external support systems.
- Limitation:
- LCSWs may focus less on formal psychological testing and more on behavioral and situational support.
LCSWs are a strong fit for individuals facing emotional distress tied to life transitions, trauma recovery, or social/environmental stressors.
Therapy vs. Counseling: What’s the Difference?
While the terms therapy and counseling are often used interchangeably, there are subtle differences between the two.
Therapy typically focuses on exploring deeper emotional patterns, past experiences, and long-term behavioral change. It’s ideal for those seeking to understand the root causes of anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship difficulties
Counseling, on the other hand, often emphasizes short-term support and practical strategies for specific challenges — such as stress management, grief, or life transitions.
At Sierra Meadows, both therapy and counseling are offered by licensed clinicians who use evidence-based methods to help you heal and grow.
