About

The Halliday Center for Psychotherapy and Wellness in Encinitas operates as a women-owned clinical psychology group practice from Santa Fe Drive, serving children as young as three through adults and seniors. Established in 2009 under California psychology license PSY23206 with PsyD training from the PGSP-Stanford Consortium, the practice integrates CBT, psychodynamic, ACT, and DBT modalities alongside the acupuncture-based stress interventions offered at MK Integrative Wellness. The LGBTQ+-affirming and transgender-safespace designated center maintains BBB A+ accreditation and operates from two San Diego County locations — Encinitas and Carmel Valley — with both in-person and telehealth session formats. Group therapy programming addresses adult interpersonal process, emotional resilience, and self-worth development, complementing the somatic stress-relief work at Balanced Body Therapeutic Massage Encinitas. Clinical evaluation protocols incorporate pre-surgical psychological assessments for bariatric candidates, alcohol misuse screening instruments, and structured adjustment disorder diagnostics across the developmental lifespan.
