Family systems therapist Richard Bladh holds California LMFT license #41751 and NPI 1174945570, practicing in San Diego's Grantville through LifeStance Health at 6386 Alvarado Court, Suite 210, in the 92120 ZIP, with a second office on Fletcher Parkway in La Mesa. He earned his MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University and has held his LMFT credential for twenty-five years, treating clients as young as age three. Bladh's CBT and family systems framework addresses ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, OCD, domestic violence, anger issues, and attachment disruption across individual, couples, and family modalities, and somatic pain presentations that co-occur with psychiatric symptoms lead to coordinated care with practitioners such as DC Doctors: Chiropractic Wellness Center on the same Grantville corridor. His first responder stress specialty extends to military and veteran populations managing deployment-related trauma, moral injury, and reintegration challenges. Bladh's LGBTQ+-affirming practice covers gender identity exploration, body image concerns, and the intersection of minority stress with mood and anxiety disorders. The Alvarado Court suite sits near Mission Gorge Road, drawing clients from Grantville, Allied Gardens, and the broader SDSU campus community. Gambling addiction and behavioral compulsions round out a substance use practice that includes alcohol, drug dependence, and pornography-related behavioral patterns. Psychiatric medication management for his patients routes through the LifeStance psychiatry staff and community dispensaries including Alvarado Community Pharmacy for outpatient prescriptions. Bladh's treatment of children ages three through twelve uses play therapy and parent-mediated behavioral protocols, adapting the family systems model to developmental stages where verbal processing is not yet the primary therapeutic channel.
