Marriage & Family Therapy – Betty Readle Therapy
Auburn, California is the base of Betty Readle Therapy, a counseling practice serving adults, couples, and families. The clinician is Betty Readle, M.A., LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist). The practice describes itself as a space where clients can access “a safe place to heal” and engage in work oriented toward genuine personal growth and transformation.
Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) is the primary clinical modality for couples work at this practice. The site describes EFT as having a proven track record of helping couples identify and shift the communication patterns that create obstacles to intimacy. Sessions explore what underlies relational distance and work toward building greater connection and mutual understanding between partners. The practice frames this work as a process of relationship enrichment and growth, not only repair.
For individual clients, the practice addresses a range of life stressors and relational patterns. Readle describes working with clients who struggle with coping, task completion, social isolation, difficulty setting limits with others, and a pervasive sense of being overwhelmed by the demands of daily life. Her clinical philosophy centers on the belief that “people can grow, heal, and transform if the desire is there.” She describes bringing sensitivity, compassion, and humor to the therapeutic relationship, and frames the clinician’s role as one of guide rather than director in a process that ultimately belongs to the client.
Session formats include both in-person appointments at the Auburn location and telehealth options for clients who prefer remote access. Clients interested in telehealth are directed to contact the practice directly for scheduling details and to discuss how virtual sessions would be structured for their specific situation.
Contact information on the site includes a phone number at 530-305-6131 and an email form accessible through the website’s contact page. No accepted insurance plans, self-pay rates, or year of establishment are listed on the page.
