Mental Health Practice – Inspired Life Counseling
Inspired Life Counseling is a multi-clinician mental health practice with offices in Chico and Redding, California. The Chico location is at 1025 Village Lane, Chico, CA 95926, and the Redding office is at 1388 Court Street, Suite B, Redding, CA 96001. Secure telehealth services are available to clients throughout California.
The practice is owned and directed by Jessica Darling, LMFT #104464. The clinical team includes 13 therapists holding credentials such as LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, AMFT, ASW, and APCC. All clinicians are EMDRIA-trained in EMDR, and all therapists receive mentorship training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, reflecting a practice-wide commitment to these two modalities.
Services offered include EMDR therapy for trauma and PTSD, Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples, individual therapy for teens and adults, and grief and loss counseling. Specialty areas listed on the site include trauma, anxiety, PTSD, relationship concerns, life transitions, and teen mental health. The practice welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds and states an affirming stance toward LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities.
Sessions are available in-person at both California office locations and via secure telehealth for those who prefer or require remote access. Smaller caseloads and personalized, strength-based care are described as central to the practice’s approach, distinguishing it from higher-volume clinical settings. The practice’s dual emphasis on EMDR and Emotionally Focused Therapy, with all clinicians trained in both modalities, reflects a deliberate effort to maintain consistency in the therapeutic tools available across the full team. This means clients seeking trauma processing or couples-focused work can access these services with any clinician at the practice rather than being routed to a specialist subset.
The practice accepts Partnership Health Plan of California, Anthem Blue Cross Medi-Cal, and Tricare West as in-network insurers. A Medicare application is noted as pending on the site. Clients with out-of-network coverage receive courtesy billing assistance. Multilingual services are available in Filipino (Tagalog) and Russian. Appointments may be requested by phone at (530) 809-1702 or through the online scheduling system listed on the website.
