Welcome! I'm John Dias. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Working through the lens of the effects of trauma and shame; I have helped these populations to manage and/or alleviate psychological and emotional struggles that result in anxiety, depression, and poor coping skills. I use an integrative approach to find what model suits each clients needs. In doing this, I have helped clients feel more apart of their journey in therapy. Helping them feel more secure and safe in a process that can be scary to some.

Hello there, I am Jamey. Do you feel like there are just not enough hours in the day, or that you are being pulled in a million different directions? Do you feel like you are struggling to keep up with your relationships, your work, or your health? Sometimes when this happens, we tend to blame the person in the mirror. Fortunately, I am here to help you get over that hump. I strive to help you manage anxiety and avoid burnout. My goal is to help work together with you, and identify what is working well, and not so well, and help you find that balance you and so many others are looking for.

Whether you are overwhelmed, having relationship issues, dealing with trauma, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I am here to help.

Las citas los Sabdos son iniciales solamente. Las demas citas seran agendadas durante los dias de semana por las tardes. Gracias y Bienvenidos. @@@@@@@ I am so glad you are reaching out for some assistance with your challenges. My name is Blanca, and I can provide you with some feedback and objectivity when it comes to dealing with everyday emotional challenges. I am proud to have been certified in cognitive Behavioral Therapy to treat depression, anxiety, and trauma by the Los Angeles County Dept of Mental Health through the Beck Institute. This manner of therapy challenges recurring negative thoughts that tend to influence mood and behaviors. I obtained my Doctorate in Social Work in 2022 from Tulane University, Louisiana, to further understand society and its effects on all of us. The depth of this degree allows me to fully understand other dynamics affecting the "masses", in other words, a macro perspective. I also supervise social workers needing to meet licensure hours. I am originally from Argentina, and I speak fluent Spanish. I came to the US when I was very young and remember struggling until I found my "space" in a new country with a new culture. I have two grown sons who, I feel, are amazing. We are very close and talk every day. I also have two cats and a small dog I adore! You might meet them over telehealth soon :) I hope to be of assistance with your challenges.

Hello. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who studied at UCSB, Pepperdine and California Southern Universities; I hold a bachelors, masters and doctoral degree.

I am a very open minded and non-judgmental therapist with a lot of personal life experience and a high level of education.

Hi there, I’m Manny. Are you currently searching for a sense of meaning and purpose in your life? Do you find yourself in an existential/spiritual emergency? Are you exploring your personal identity, expression, or sexuality? I help people of all ages increase self-awareness and decrease symptomology by bringing unconscious material into conscious awareness. Trauma combined with an emotional core (experiences of intense fear/guilt/shame) commonly splinters parts of our personality and represses such into the shadow/unconscious realms of our psyche. In response, many of us have adapted and survived by putting on masks in hopes of fitting in and being accepted by the people around us. Mental health concerns eventually arise because deep in our mind/body/soul we yearn for authenticity/individuation. Clients may also experience suicide ideation and/or self-harm because there are parts of themselves that no longer serve them. Together we can explore which aspects of ourselves to let go, in order to make space for something new to enter. I am a Doctoral Candidate from Pacifica Graduate Institute, my studies focused on Depth Psychology with a specialization in Integrative Therapy and Healing Practices. As a Holistic practitioner, I believe that each individual already possesses what is needed for their healing and it is my duty, as a guiding witness, to help the client navigate, process, and integrate such.

Im a Bilingual English/Spanish-speaking therapist with a Marriage and Family License, with 18 years of clinical experience, 12 years licensed and in private practice.

Transitioning from one culture to another with seemingly different values, beliefs and language. I can easily understand the struggle that maintaining, and existing in both, can sometimes be. I've come to perceive and appreciate it as the gift of having a "bridge" that allows connection to, and understanding of, different aspects of people and life. My education has a foundation in Clinical Psychology, woven with holistic transpersonal themes, the connection between mind, body, and spirit, and just plain down-to-earth common sense. Always keeping in mind the client's personal beliefs and values.

I am Dr. William A. Lambos. I am dedicated to providing quality care that emphasizes treating you as a whole person. In my treatment model, medication is a last resort and utilized only after other options have been fully explored. My approach differs in that I recognize the role of the brain in mental health. I recognize that problems in one area of a client's life impact other areas, and so my philosophy is designed to integrate all aspects of functioning. I am committed to helping you achieve balance and harmony in every area of your life by reducing stress and teaching independent self-regulation. What makes me different is that my approach "Leads with The Brain," and finishes with how you achieve balance and self-awareness. Many behavioral health issues have brain-based components that are usually ignored. Once these are identified and handled, therapy can do its job as it was always meant to work. In today's hectic, busy world, the keys to a peaceful and prosperous existence include the ability to manage stress caused by demands on our time and energy. Our unique selection of resources combine effective traditional approaches with innovative methods of treating the brain and body.

Good to meet you! Please, call me Annita. To begin with--therapy means something is "right" with you, as you listened to your heart asking to be heard by someone in a safe, non-judgmental place of acceptance. Now let me ask: anxiety or depression, histories or memories of childhood or adult traumatic events, grief and loss of a beloved family member, friend, or pet to whom you were closely connected, navigating chronic illness--have any of these challenges disrupted your life so it feels intolerable? Let me hear your heart--not with a stethoscope, but with listening to you. My 30+ years of previous career in nursing taught me that 'listening' to words from the heart is one of the most important aspects of a relationship--not just hearing the words but feeling the emotional impact as well. Having worked in adult and pediatric populations, I understand that all ages and populations deserve respect, kindness and compassion. I have worked as a mental health clinician with teens ages 16-24, with children 4 years old and up, young and older adults. From a nursing perspective, I am acutely aware of medical issues that often affect our mental health and need assessment by a physician to provide the best treatment, while I offer the skills that increase abilities to cope with those needs. I provide experiences in your session to help you realize your worth, build coping skills, regain confidence as well as compassion for all you have experienced in life, continue to grow through challenges, and progress toward the goal you desire.

I am a certified trauma therapist and certified child and adolescent trauma therapist. I also hold certifications in both somatic therapy and child and adolescent grief. I am a trained and experienced Brainspotter. If you like talk therapy we can do that. If you have tried talk therapy and feel the need to go deeper then "bottom-up processing" may be the answer for you; that is what trauma therapy is all about. You don't have to tell me your story unless you want to, we can work with silence. I am a retired law enforcement officer and have extensive experience working with people in crisis and chaotic situations. Though I never served in the military myself, my family has a very deep military history and there are many parallels between the careers. It is very important for military and first responders, including dispatchers and emergency room personnel, to have a support system in place BEFORE the 'numbness' sets in. It would be my honor to be a part of your support system. I may not wear the same size, but I have probably taken some steps in your shoes.

Hi there, I'm Andrea. Have you been feeling stressed and overwhelmed? Have changes or new challenges in your life evoked feelings or thought streams difficult to manage? Does it feel harder to know how to communicate what you need or feel supported by someone in your life? My goal in working with you is to develop trust and connection; to team with you so that we can identify what is not working and build skills so that you can feel more satisfied in your life. I have over 20 years experience working with adults, couples, adolescents and families. My approach is collaborative and individualized to meet your specific needs for support. I believe that improving the way we connect with each other and care for ourselves will support effective communication that leads to more supportive relationships. Together, we will utilize your strengths and practice new ways to manage stress, emotional difficulties, and the challenges life can bring. I have decades of experience helping clients with anxiety, mood issues, trauma, relationship problems and major life changes. I am straightforward and I want you to feel empowered and confident to enact the changes you seek. I want you to feel that the therapy process can be productive and helpful. You are not alone!

Hi, I'm Dr. Holly Siegrist, and I am a psychologist licensed in California with 15 years of experience. I take a strength-based approach, and I work with clients on spirituality and meaning making, creativity, dream analysis, relationship issues, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress related to disability and other discrimination, grief, chronic illness, losses, and life change. My interests are in social justice, coping with discrimination, health and wellness, and resilience. My therapy style is warm and welcoming. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion, and providing a safe space to listen to clients. I have a Ph.D. in Psychology with Specialization in Existential, Humanistic, and Transpersonal Psychology from Saybrook University. I also hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University, an M.S. in Rehabilitation Psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, an M.A. in Disability, Health and Illness from the University of Leeds, and bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Comparative History of Ideas from the University of Washington, Seattle. I specialize in dream analysis and lucid dreaming therapy. What drew me to therapy was my interest in social justice work while I was attending the University of Washington for my undergraduate education, and did peer counseling with students. I have always been interested in helping people, I enjoy hearing people’s stories, and I also find that in the therapeutic process I learn more about myself. Through my therapy journey I have gained much experience in working with diverse people. In addition, during my time at Saybrook University, I received training in spiritual approaches in therapy, and dream analysis and lucid dreaming therapy. I'm glad you are moving towards living a more fulfilling and happier life, and I am here to support you so you can empower yourself on your journey of transformation.

Hello, it's a pleasure to "e-meet" you! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California and I have been working as a therapist for over 25 years. I enjoy teaching and utilizing different methods of therapy to provide psycho-education, increase insight and flexible thinking patterns, evaluate your symptoms that are unpleasant or unmanageable, monitor your progress (both short and long term goals) and practice applying your new coping skills to enhance your strengths and live a more fulfilling life. I do give homework so you can practice new coping skills and exercise self care throughout the week. Homework is strictly optional, but it's all for the "new you" and you deserve self care daily! *Let's talk and unpack your history and process more understanding during your "road trip" with me. I will be your co-pilot while you are behind the wheel- that way you manage the speed because it's all about you feeling safe, secure and trusting the process and feelings of leaving what doesn't work for you behind, staying present, taking deep breaths, feeling pride in your strength and positivity to hold that space as we then proceed and keep going. *We will travel to your destination(s): Feeling better and resolving conflicts and we will have to stop for "gas" to recharge/rest/review our progress and determine if we are going in the right direction. We will explore other ways of thinking and reconstruct new ways of thinking your destinations. We won't race to the finish line, and remember: You have your foot on the brake to slow down when needed. Remember: pacing, trust, monitoring energy and feelings, and practicing new routes will get us to your destination safely!
