I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have been a therapist dedicated to supporting diverse communities for over a decade. My theoretical orientation is evidence-based practices (ICBT) Individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. I have clinical experience in working with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I primarily work with adults, children, adolescents, and their families. I believe that by working together there is a hope about changing behaviors, thereby leading to desired quality of life.

I love supporting people as they discover their passions, break through blocks, and step into the life they’ve always dreamed of. I’m a first-generation, cisgender Latinx woman, born and raised in the Bay Area. I’ve been a licensed therapist for four years, and I’m proud to have recently started my private practice where I get to bring my whole self into the work I do.

Hello and Welcome! I am a social worker who has been in the field for over 20 years. Early in my career, I was fortunate enough to work with a psychiatrist who believed there was more to treating mental health than medication. I participated in a training with him and I was transformed as a therapist. I was trained in the relaxation response and mindfulness meditation and using the body to help heal people who have had significant trauma and mental health challenges. From there, I went on to get my yoga teaching certification from Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Since then, I have been helping children, adolescents and adults learn more about themselves and help them connect with the truest part of themselves. I believe my purpose is to help people learn to love themselves. I lived in CA for a long time and still hold my LCSW license. I was fortunate enough to study with a number of teachers at Spirit Rock Meditation Center who have influenced my work. I blend a number of different frameworks into my practice including trauma-informed CBT, DBT, somatic psychotherapy and self-compassion. I am mindful and respectful of all differences (racial, ethnic, cultural, religious, economic, gender, sexual orientation, ability etc.) and strive to understand each person within the context of their life history. Every person who seeks treatment has unique needs and goals. I strive to work collaboratively with you to keep your goals at the center of our work together. I stand in solidarity with the BIPOC community and all those impacted by systemic racism and oppression. I will uphold my own values and ethics and support all those who are speaking out against injustice of any kind. As a therapist, I am committed to creating a safe space for all.

My name is Marissa Ruiz, Licensed Marriage and Family therapist in California. Some of my other titles include mother, wife, sister, daughter, niece, grandmother and friend. Sharing these titles are important to me because they represent current relationships and past relationships. My past relationships include grief, trauma and growth.

We will be working together with to make a goal. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles.

As an Authentic Relating Facilitator, Nonviolent Communication Practitioner, and Licensed Therapist, I have a deep desire to attune to you and your world.

Once we have a map of where we are headed, we will practice the skills needed to get to your desired life. Some of the skills we will use to navigate the terrain are mindfulness, somatic and mind-body practices, written word exploration, feelings and needs awareness, and vision/goals work. Ready to take the journey? Schedule a free consultation to answer any questions you may have. You know the way, and I’d be honored to accompany you.

Hi, I'm Amanda, and I help people who are exhausted from fighting their mind finally find some peace with it. By the time most people find me, they're worn down — not just by the symptoms themselves, but by the effort of holding it all together. Capable on the outside. Exhausted on the inside. Wondering if this is just who they are. That’s not the whole story I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in individual work with adults, parents, and caregivers. Over the past 15 years, I've had the privilege of walking alongside hundreds of people as they moved from survival mode to a life that actually feels like their own. I hold a Master's degree from the California Institute of Integral Studies, and I bring both the clinical depth of that training and the wisdom of real-world practice to every session. My approach is collaborative and personalized — because you're not a diagnosis or a checklist, and therapy shouldn't feel like one. I'm a creative thinker by nature, and I use that to bring fresh perspectives to our work together, while also providing the structure and direction that meaningful progress requires. In our early sessions, we'll take time to understand what's really going on and build a clear, intentional plan that makes sense for your life. Most of my clients notice a real, positive shift within the first month. A steady, meaningful life isn't something other people get to have. It belongs to you, too. If you're ready to stop managing and start actually living, I'd love to connect.

We will work with a humanistic approach, integrating evidence-based and mindfulness techniques that will bring a healthy balance and restore wholeness. I'm here for you! You don't need to tackle this alone. Let me assist you to bring about the changes and harmony you desire. I'll treat you with empathy and compassion while sharing the knowledge, skills, and strategies to help you conquer the obstacles on your life journey. Let's team up and work together!

I have a background in both medical social work and residential mental health, allowing me to build rapport quickly so you can feel safe in our sessions.

Do you struggle with people-pleasing, anxiety, depression, internalized and/or externalized anger, or managing emotions in general in a healthy manner? Did you experience childhood trauma and feel like you grew up too fast? Were you labeled "different," "the "caretaker," "black sheep," or "troublemaker"? I teach people how to prioritize and honor all parts of themselves, not just the "desirable" ones. We will work through parts people generally dismiss and ignore such as anger, resentment, shame, and disgust, and learn how to embrace them gracefully. I'll teach you the skills to feel more at peace. As your therapist, I will be challenging and direct, yet empathetic and compassionate. I will challenge you through introspective questioning that will lead you to your own answers. I help you take what you've learned and apply it to your own life by giving you things to think about and work on between sessions, along with resources and handouts to remember. I hope you'll witness yourself feeling more empowered, confident, and more at peace with yourself as my other clients have. You will notice your relationships evolve and change, which can be scary! Rest assured, you will be provided with skills to gracefully go through them. Everything you seek is already inside you. All I’m doing is helping you remember.

Hello! and welcome. I know that it can feel scary to do therapy, so congratulations on taking the first step! I have worked with people from diverse backgrounds in a therapeutic capacity for several decades. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), and although I have trained in various methodologies, I believe the key to therapy is a close relationship with your therapist. My goal is to make you feel safe to share your thoughts, feelings and experiences without fear of judgment. I aim to foster a space where you feel understood, supported and empowered on your journey. I’m passionate about helping people transform their lives.

I have had various jobs in my life in quite a few different fields but the common thread was that I enjoy empowering others and helping people figure out what they want and how to get that.

I am bi-lingual speaking (English and Spanish) and was raised in Los Angeles.

You deserve to feel better. If you've been feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that are hard to change, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out on your own. Hi, I'm Michelle, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Mindset Coach with over thirty years of experience. I help people feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their emotions. My goal is to create a space where therapy feels like a real, supportive conversation—one where you can better understand yourself and begin to move forward with clarity. Many of the people I work with are dealing with anxiety, stress, or emotional patterns that leave them feeling overwhelmed or disconnected. Together, we take a closer look at what's happening beneath the surface—not just within you, but within the context of your life, your relationships, and the situations you're navigating every day. We explore how your thoughts, emotions, and stress responses are connected, and we build tools to help you respond in healthier, more empowering ways. I believe there are two important relationships worth understanding: the relationships you have with other people, and the relationship you have with yourself. A question we'll often explore is, "What happens to you when...?" Whether it's conflict, criticism, disappointment, or uncertainty, understanding how you respond under different circumstances helps you recognize patterns and make choices that better reflect the person you want to be. My approach is collaborative, practical, and down-to-earth. Together, we'll focus on the parts of your life that are within your influence… strengthening communication, setting healthy boundaries, and making changes that help your relationships feel healthier while allowing you to feel more like yourself.

Hola! My name is Brianna and I’m so glad you’re here. The decision to begin therapy is a big one, and I feel honored that you are considering doing that with me. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. On our therapeutic journey, I welcome you just the way you are so that we can work to create an authentic life balance that will support your success, wellness and happiness. Whatever it is, telling your story to someone who cares and accepts the most authentic version of you, is the first step toward healing. I want to work with you to help you figure out how to solve challenges and find the most authentic version of yourself so that you can live the life you’ve always envisioned. I received my Masters from CSU San Jose State and have been supporting clients for 8 years.

I am a licensed professional clinical counselor licensed in California with over seven years of experience working as a psychotherapist.

My name is Allison Contreras (she/her) and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT#150838), as well as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC #22251) in California. My goal as a therapist is to come alongside another's struggles and provide a space of empathy. I strive to ensure that I create a place to where my clients feel heard, seen, and accepted for where they are in the present moment. I seek to be a grounding presence for those I support. I have a wide variety of experiences in my initial work in community mental health, which has exposed me to a diverse population of clients. In terms of symptoms/diagnoses, I have a strong background with grief and loss, trauma/stressor-related symptoms, depression, and anxiety. I look forward to discussing your therapy goals with you and how I can possibly support! :)

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. I strive to bring a calm, non-anxious presence into the room while keeping therapy warm, conversational, and human. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety and panic disorders, OCD, ADHD, relationship concerns, and sexual dysfunctions. I also enjoy working with healthcare professionals and people who tend to overthink or feel like they don’t quite “fit in.” My approach is person-centered at its core, meaning I believe therapy works best when clients feel accepted and supported as they are. I then integrate different therapeutic approaches depending on each client’s needs and goals. I believe effective therapy is both human and clinical — connection matters, but so do practical tools and evidence-based strategies. In working with OCD and anxiety, I often remind clients that growth takes practice and consistency. Healing is possible, but it requires learning how to tolerate discomfort rather than avoid it. For couples, I view the relationship as a team. Therapy can help partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and better understand one another. Faith-based or Christian counseling is also available for clients who would like to incorporate spirituality into therapy.

I’m someone who believes that real healing begins with understanding — of yourself, your struggles, and your strengths. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years of experience, I’m here to help you uncover the deeper causes of your challenges and guide you toward meaningful, lasting change. Life brings many stressors that can affect your ability to cope — mentally, emotionally, and even physically. In our work together, whether individually or in a group setting, I take a holistic approach that supports your well-being in mind, body, and spirit. My practice is client-centered and rooted in mindfulness. Together, we’ll gently explore what may be keeping you stuck — whether it’s unresolved trauma, painful memories, life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or addiction. With compassionate support and practical tools, we’ll work to restore your sense of balance, build resilience, and help you reconnect with your full potential.

Hi, My name is Aaron and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who loves to see people start taking more control over their life and empowering them to become the mature, healthy person that they've always wanted to be. I've found that many people get bogged down by false lies/narratives that they have in their heads like, "I'm not good enough", "I can't handle it", or the all too common "I don't deserve ... ". These lies, whether we realize it or not, end up impacting many area's of our life, especially the way we view ourselves. With me, my hope is that you will have a transformative experience in the way you look at yourself and believe in yourself. My goal is for you to grow in believing, "There are many good things about me and that's enough", or "I actually can handle it, and I can figure things out" or "I actually do deserve ..." When you grow in actually believing these things, it's amazing how much more mature, healthy and confident you become. You can actually re-write the way you think about yourself and you can experience life to the fullest!

I’m a Latino therapist who specializes in working with trauma, identity, and the emotional weight that comes from growing up in high-stress environments. I help people make sense of patterns rooted in past experiences — whether that’s family dysfunction, grief, street violence, or cultural pressure — so they can move through life with more clarity and less emotional reactivity. My style is honest, direct, and grounded. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods and listens — I’ll challenge you when needed and help you get to the core of what’s keeping you stuck. I work especially well with first-generation men, individuals processing childhood or gang-related trauma, and those navigating the tension between cultural loyalty and personal growth. I’ve spent the last five years working across community mental health, jail reentry, and school-based settings — including the LA County Department of Mental Health, homeless outreach in South Central, and now as a therapist in a middle school. My approach is shaped by both clinical training and real-life experience supporting clients in some of the most challenging situations.

I'm so glad you found your way here. Seeking treatment is an indication of being ready for change and having a new experience of life. I'm an insight oriented therapist meaning I assist clients in illuminating their inner workings and wounds that have created struggles in their lives. I work at a level of healing and empowering with the intention to offer guidance rather than to instruct. You are the expert of your life. Together we take a look at what needs to be addressed and resolved then move into recognizing one's own strengths, value, and worth. This allows individuals to move into greater appreciation and acceptance of self. I have worked for several years with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families with a strong focus on personal acceptance, self-compassion, and resolution of internal conflicts based in trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, relationship strain, or lack of direction and focus in one’s life. I specialize in substance abuse and addiction treatment. Having been in recovery for 10 years myself, I understand the journey of ending the cycle of self destruction and moving to a place of healing and greater peace.

I provide individual and family therapy with a trauma-informed, culturally attuned approach. My work weaves together evidence-based methods like EMDR, CBT, and psychodynamics theory with deep compassion and intuition. As someone who values both emotional healing and spiritual growth, I help clients untangle the effects of trauma, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with their inner resilience. At the heart of my work is a simple intention to help you heal, grow, and move forward with more clarity, strength, and hope.

I am passionate about creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. I believe in meeting each person where they are and partnering with them to uncover their strengths, develop practical tools, and move toward a more fulfilling life. My goal is to help clients feel empowered, hopeful, and confident in their ability to create meaningful change.

Sometimes we all need a little extra support during tough times. Let me be that support for you. Therapy can be a very scary process for many people. My goal is to create a safe and comfortable environment for you and to provide you with the tools and resources needed to get through your day to day struggles. I strive to facilitate a space where clients can process shame, guilt, isolation, self-forgiveness and hopelessness. I am passionate about what I do. When you are ready to begin your journey and start your healing process, I would love the opportunity to walk along with you.

Are you always the go to person? Do people constantly comment on how you always know how to handle things? Or maybe that they don't know how you do it all! Maybe sometimes you don't even know how you do it, but you keep going. You keep showing up and doing it all. But when you need support, it feels like theres no one you can really lean on. It can be hard to know where to start to begin really take care of yourself, but it's possible to change things and create a life you truly love. I can help you find the answers you're looking for inside yourself and build a life you feel connected to and truly worthy of. If you're ready to stop putting everyone else first and learn how to show up for yourself and live a life where you are energized, I can help!

Are you feeling weighed down by unhealthy behaviors, anxious thoughts, or a critical inner voice that you just cannot seem to quiet? Often, the struggles we face today—like constant anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck—stem from the survival strategies and messages we picked up/leanred during a difficult childhood. If you are ready to redefine who you are on your own terms, create a new identity blueprint--you are in the right place. My career has been built on helping people navigate deep-seated trauma. I spent years working extensively with foster youth, which gave me a profound understanding of childhood trauma. Today, alongside my private practice, I work on a frontline crisis line triaging severe emotional distress and suicidal ideation. This intense work has made me highly adept at sitting with people in their darkest, and heaviest moments. I excel at helping individuals interrupt overwhelming, negative thought loops and gently guiding them back to a place where they can remember they are safe, loved, worthy, and valued. I am also a proud military veteran. This part of my identity led me to serve as a therapist in an inpatient drug rehabilitation center for veterans—a role that remains incredibly near and dear to my heart. Because of my lived experience, I understand the unique pressures, sacrifices, and invisible wounds that come with military life. In our sessions, we will work together to uncover the old narratives holding you back and consciously rewrite them into positive, empowering beliefs. I am a firm believer that "we are what we think." Using practical, evidence-based tools (like CBT, DBT, and Narrative therapy), we will actively reshape your thought patterns. You do not have to carry this weight alone. Together, we will set reachable, realistic goals to help you find relief, clarity, and a much happier path forward.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of mental health and relationships. For the past decade, I have worked in a jail setting, where I have gained invaluable experience in crisis management. My work in this challenging environment has honed my skills in de-escalation and conflict resolution, and has taught me the importance of compassion and empathy in even the most difficult of situations. In addition to my work in the jail system, I have also maintained a thriving private practice, where I take an eclectic approach to therapy.
