About Me

I’m Bobbi Ebsen, a LIcensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years of experience working with adults who carry the impact of trauma, chronic stress, and complex relational patterns. I practice trauma therapy in a way that fits real life - especially life in a place where many people are outwardly successful while internally exhausted, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. My clients are often thoughtful capable people who have learned to function at a high level while carrying more than their share beneath the surface. I have been in clinical practice since 2001 and am EMDR Certified. Over the years, my work has included private practice, community mental health, federal systems, and international humanitarian settings, including service in the Peace Corps and work with UNICEF in Sri Lanka. These experiences have shaped a grounded steady approach to therapy that values depth, pacing, and nervous system regulation over quick fixes. In my work, I focus on complex trauma, developmental trauma, attachment wounds, and the long-term effects of chronic stress. Many of my clients have tried therapy before and are looking for something more integrative - work that addresses not just thoughts and behaviors, but the body, emotional patterns, and relational dynamics that keep them stuck. My style is collaborative, calm, and respectful. I do not rush the process or push people faster than their system is ready to go. Therapy with me is thoughtful and contained, designed to help you feel more regulated, present, and able to engage fully with your life - rather than constantly managing or enduring it. I work well with professionals, caregivers, helpers, and creatives who value depth and are ready to engage in meaningful change. I offer telehealth therapy for adults located in California and several other states. Feel free to contact me at: 510-391-4099
