Jared Roehrig, LMFT

Jared specializes in using art and depth psychotherapy to help people process emotional blocks, build self-discovery and a more fulfilling life. He is fully trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) and has worked with trauma survivors from all walks of life. Jared particularly likes working with dreams and helping clients listen deeply to their inner story and discovering their personal myth. 

Jared helps adults and children at the Healing Center and in private practice in Santa Barbara.  Jared also works part-time at Mission Harbor Behavioral Health in Santa Barbara where he leads groups on shadow work and family dynamics.  “I’ve learned that the best healing is done with a collaborative spirit, harnessing one’s humor and creativity to nurture, grieve, and grow.”

Jared received his Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute.  His prior clinical experience includes working at Sanctuary Centers of Santa Barbara where he worked with clients with thought disorders, PTSD, and substance use.  He holds an additional Master's of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and Poetry and a Master's of Arts in English from San Francisco State University. He enjoys writing, tarot reading, and music from all over the world.
