Welcome, for the past 14 years I have supported clients with processing through difficult thoughts and emotions associated with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, childhood complex trauma, adult traumatic experiences, self-esteem issues, grief and loss of persons or pets as well as many other concerns. I have supported clients with gaining insight into themselves and their circumstances/life events as to gain perspective, heal and live life more settled and balanced. I value using a variety of therapy modalities, such as Psychodynamic, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral (DBT), Compassion Based Therapy, Mindfulness and Somatic Therapies. I also come from a personal background of trauma and loss, which has informed my work as a therapist. I have gained first hand experience of how transformation and healing can happen with the right supports and guidance. I hope to bring both my academic understandings and learnings as well as real life experience to our work together to enable you to learn, grow and thrive in the ways you are hoping for.

If you feel anxious, sad, or irritable, I will help you find skills to regulate your nervous system. If you’ve experienced trauma, I will help you process or re-process your trauma. A few things about me: I am a first generation Mexican American. I am a lover of nature. I am a mother and dog mom. I am a law enforcement and combat veteran spouse. I too have experienced obstacles, grief, and stresses in my life. I too understand that change, making time for a therapy session, incorporating daily coping skills and self care can be challenging, however, necessary. Congratulations on taking the first step.

Hi, I'm Mysty. Are you struggling with emotions that you don't know what to do with? Are you stuck in thought processes that are unhelpful, yet you are not sure how to change them? Do you want to learn how to regulate emotion, reduce stress, improve relationships, improve communication, reduce unwanted emotion, and feel comfortable in your own body? These are just a few of the things that I work with clients on, and I can work with you as well. I believe we are all humans doing the best that we can, and sometimes the best thing we can do is ask for help. I work mostly with anxiety, depression, panic, trauma, grief, and stress, although there are many additional stressors and diagnoses that I have been successful at helping clients with. If we work together, we will set goals and I will help you find ways to achieve them using new skills and shifting perspectives. The most important part of working with clients is understanding this is your journey. I'm not here to judge or tell you what to do, I am here to listen and help you gain perspective, make adjustments, learn about yourself, and find practical ways to implement the change you are looking for. I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your journey.

Do you wonder if your life could feel better than it currently does? I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, including postpartum anxiety and depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, and other life challenges. In this therapeutic process, we work together to help bring you closer to what truly matters to you and help create change and healing in your life. I use evidence-based techniques, which includes EMDR along with a variety of other treatment modalities. Therapy can help you create a sense of safety and nurturing within, whether you’ve lost that feeling along the way or never had it to begin with. I strongly believe in the brain’s tendency towards resilience and its innate ability to heal itself with support. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, open-minded, and respectful environment, and I believe that a collaborative relationship is critical to therapeutic success. Let’s work together to help you find the healing you are craving.

Life can lead us down some pretty confusing paths sometimes, leaving us feeling crazy, unsettled, and totally lost. You don't have to feel like this forever. I work with individuals, couples, and teens who are really going through it - anxiety, panic and stress, relationship issues, PTSD, and unresolved issues that continue to impact current life. Many of my clients are insightful, curious, growth-oriented people who are seeking meaning and a more fulfilling relationships. My focus is on helping you to come to a deeper sense of meaning on all that is weighing you down and freeing up whatever it is that seems to be stuck. I cultivate a warm, nurturing presence so that my clients can feel firmly held and supported. My areas of focus include: managing anxiety, depression, stress-related conditions, life transitions, trans-generational trauma, cultural mistreatment, career/academic issues, authentic self expression, conscious relationship, transformation of life, relational trauma, body image issues. My work focuses on fostering in clients a mindful presence, attuned connection, conscious communication, and a path of deep intimacy.

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.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), based in California. I received my MSSA in "Mental Health" from the Case Western Reserve University, and I have been practicing for the last eight years. I help clients who are struggling with stress, anxiety and/or depression, heal and become the best versions of themselves. I also have extensive experience in working with adults who are survivors of domestic violence (DV), intimate partner violence (IPT), and those who are suffering from symptoms of PTSD. I also enjoy working with families who may be experiencing triangulation and communication difficulties. My preferred clinical approach includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness meditation embedded in DBT, Narrative Therapy, and psycho-dynamic therapy. Finally, I view my clients from a holistic perspective so that we can understand what barriers may be restricting them from experiencing true happiness in life.
