Heidi Taugher, LMFT

I have been helping others heal from emotional pain and reach their personal goals for over 10 years. I specialize in the treatment of complex trauma, PTSD, substance use, and mood and anxiety-related disorders. I have extensive experience working with interpersonal conflict including domestic violence. I practice with the knowledge that everyone has their own life-experiences, inner wisdom, and ultimate goals. I remain flexible in the therapeutic process and listen with an open mind and heart. I pay attention to what makes you comfortable regarding the pace of therapy and your ability to disclose your innermost feelings. In addition to my private practice, I work as the Clinical Program Manager for a residential treatment facility for co-occurring mental health and substance use issues in Oakland, CA. There, I have the great privilege to work alongside physicians, psychiatrists, licensed clinical social workers, Collaborative Court representatives, attorneys, and child-welfare workers. Working in this capacity has provided me with unique insight into the world of trauma and addiction and afforded me the opportunity to expand my knowledge base in ways that benefit all of my clients. You have choices when it comes to selecting a therapist and I am honored you are considering me.
