Find a Therapist in California IG

Hello and welcome! I’m Isiah Green. I am a Black Man with a passion for working with individuals and couples including Men/Women/Trans and Non-Binary clients ranging in age from 13-80. The choice to begin therapy is a testament to your strength and courage. The weight of your issues at times can be tough to carry; especially when it’s too heavy or no one has taught you how to bare it. Some of us have been taught to “be strong” and just “make it work”, and to never complain. However, this can leave you feeling overwhelmed or confused about your own emotions. 

My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space that will allow you to openly express your thoughts and feelings.

I specialize in assisting clients with relationship/couples’ issues, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, domestic violence, trauma, and grief. 

My therapeutic approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused, and Gottman’s Couples Therapy. I believe that there is no straight path to fixing all our problems as we are all unique. I use all my knowledge and resources to assist every type of client I encounter. 

A little bit about me: I am a father, who has spent 8 years serving as a member of the United States Navy, with combat-trauma-based experiences; 4 of which were spent working as a Sexual Assault Victim Advocate for members and families of the armed services. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of La Verne, and my Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Pepperdine University.

 Many couples and individuals come to therapy feeling stuck in the same painful relationship patterns, wanting closeness but somehow ending up disconnected.

You might notice emotions escalating quickly, conversations going in circles, or a familiar pursue-withdraw dynamic showing up in your dating life or relationship. Over time, these cycles can feel exhausting and disheartening.

I specialize in working with couples and individuals navigating anxious-avoidant dynamics, communication breakdowns, emotional overwhelm, and recurring relationship stress. My work is strongly informed by attachment theory and emotional regulation science, helping clients understand the deeper emotional and nervous system patterns that drive disconnection and conflict. I also support clients who are dating and noticing familiar patterns showing up again and again. Together, we slow these moments down, build awareness of what your system is doing in real time, and develop tools to help you respond more intentionally rather than react automatically.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I integrate attachment-focused therapy, nervous system regulation, and evidence-based strategies to help clients build insight, strengthen communication, and create more secure, grounded relationships. I work with couples, individuals, teens, and families navigating emotional regulation challenges, identity development, and major life transitions.

Clients often appreciate my genuine, relational style and the balance of compassion and honest reflection I bring into the room. While I lead with empathy, I also offer direct, thoughtful feedback when it supports your growth.

If you’re feeling stuck in dating, in your relationship, or overwhelmed by patterns that keep repeating, therapy can help you move toward a more secure and regulated way of living.

 My mission as a therapist and veteran is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to both veterans and civilians navigating substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, and related mental health challenges. I work with adult and geriatric populations, providing support for concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, relationship issues, and PTSD. Drawing on my military background, I am committed to fostering resilience, accountability, and personal growth within a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment.

I integrate a range of proven therapeutic approaches—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Person-Centered Therapy—to tailor treatment to each individual client’s needs, preferences, and personalized treatment plan.

With experience working across both veteran and civilian populations, I bring a culturally responsive and adaptable approach to care. I strive to empower clients to regain control of their lives, develop healthier coping strategies, and rediscover a sense of purpose and connection. Through collaboration, integrity, and a deep understanding of trauma and recovery, I work with each client to develop and implement treatment plans that support their goals and promote lasting healing and well-being.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Fresno State University between 2017 and 2019. I then continued my education at Fresno State, where I was accepted into the Master’s program in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling, completing my graduate studies from 2019 to 2024. This academic training has provided a strong foundation in evidence-based practice, clinical assessment, and therapeutic interventions.

Outside of my professional work, I value maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle. I enjoy hiking, visiting museums, and spending time at the gym, all of which support my commitment to overall wellness. I believe in practicing what I encourage in others—prioritizing self-care, physical health, and activities that promote both mental and emotional well-being.
