About Bayridge Effective Therapy
Virtual Therapy Services Available Across California
Who We Are
BayRidge Effective Therapy is a California-based mental health practice providing virtual therapy across California for teens and adults. We offer evidence-based, trauma-informed care through secure telehealth, supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions and relationship challenges.
Therapy at BayRidge is structured, collaborative, and personalized. Our clinicians focus on helping clients understand patterns, develop effective coping strategies and create meaningful, lasting change through intentional, goal-oriented care.
We serve individuals throughout California, including clients in Los Angeles, South Bay, San Diego, San Jose, Orange County, Sacramento and surrounding areas.
Our Approach to Therapy
Personalized. Evidence-Based. Adaptable.
Therapy at BayRidge is not one-size-fits-all.
Our clinicians draw from established, evidence-based therapeutic frameworks and tailor care based on each client’s goals, experiences and progress. Rather than relying on a single method, therapy is adapted thoughtfully to support the individual and the challenges they are facing.
Approaches that may be integrated into treatment include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills
- Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
- Client-centered and strengths-based care
- Trauma-informed therapeutic practices
This flexible, integrative approach allows therapy to remain responsive, intentional and aligned with what will be most effective for each person.

About Jennifer Seidner, MA, LMFT, LPCC
Why I Chose Therapy
As a dedicated mental health provider in the South Bay, I’m here to support you through life’s challenges with compassion and expertise. Your well-being is my priority and I strive to provide high-quality, personalized therapy that meets your unique needs—all with a supportive and welcoming approach.
With a strong foundation in organizational psychology, gained through decades of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, I made a meaningful mid-career transition into clinical psychology. This journey has given me a unique perspective, blending corporate insight with compassionate, client-centered care in private practice.
Personal Life
Growing up, I worked alongside my mother in her travel agency, immersing myself in different cultures and perspectives from an early age. These experiences shaped my deep appreciation for human connection, personal growth and the diverse ways people navigate life’s challenges.
For the past 16 years, I’ve been grateful to call the South Bay home. You might find me biking along the Strand, enjoying live music outdoors, hiking in Big Bear, paddleboarding alongside sea lions or unwinding at brunch with my husband, Steven, and our beloved pup, Brody Bear.
