About

Ocean Air Counseling in Encinitas provides licensed clinical social work psychotherapy from Suite 200 on Encinitas Boulevard, operating under California LCSW license 87259. The practice draws on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and solution-focused modalities for teens, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions — an evidence-based clinical scope that complements the acupuncture-based anxiety protocols at AIM Integrative Medicine. Specialized treatment tracks address suicidal ideation and self-harm safety planning, grief processing, relationship conflict, low self-esteem, and anger regulation. The practice also maintains clinical competency in faith-transition counseling, supporting individuals navigating spiritual identity shifts alongside standard mood and anxiety treatment. That integrative orientation toward mind-body connection parallels the meridian-based nervous-system work at Chong Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine on Encinitas's behavioral health corridor. Highest-acuity cases involve structured crisis-stabilization protocols pairing real-time safety assessment with ACT-based psychological flexibility training to reduce acute distress.
