Cybil Gilbertson, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #149705

Are you in a marriage or relationship that feels disconnected or trapped in repetitive cycles of miscommunication and conflict? You want to rekindle your bond, deepen your trust, and learn to communicate openly. Your goal is to restore intimacy, develop mutual understanding, and build a partnership that feels safe and fulfilling, creating a lasting, meaningful connection. Therapy with me is a partnership—a shared journey toward a place within your relationship that feels more like home. I am here to meet you where you are, without judgment, and to support your unique journey. 

I specialize in supporting couples in reshaping their relationship dynamics through a blend of somatic, psychodynamic, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approaches. I provide tools to foster empathy, trust, and secure emotional bonds, guiding couples toward authentic and resilient relationships. 

If you're ready to strengthen your relationship, I invite you to take this courageous step together. Therapy can provide a safe space to explore, heal, and rediscover each other. I am here to support your journey toward a more fulfilling and connected partnership.

I offer therapy sessions in-person in Santa Barbara or online via telehealth, serving the state of California.
