Hi! I am an imperfect human first, therapist second. You will feel and experience my authenticity and heart in our work together. This a journey that we are embarking on and it will be based off of safety, joy, and connection. I have about 9 years of clinical experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and am finishing up my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. My passion includes supporting clients to embody more of who they truly are and find rest in their imperfection. I specifically work with high performers, creatives, and/or go getters who desire to be their best self but find themselves struggling with "getting there". I work with those who may struggle with the following: self-doubt, people-pleasing, shame, guilt, overthinking, stress, anxiety, control, codependency, and perfectionism.

It is my goal as a therapist to provide my clients with the utmost support during their most trying times. I have worked with children and adults as well as families in crisis. Asking for help should not be seen as a weakness but as a strength, and being strong enough to identify that you need emotional support to better your quality of life is something to be proud of. I thoroughly enjoy building relationships with my clients while supporting them on their journey to become their best selves. I started my career in this field after serving as a volunteer within the community providing emotional support to individuals who were nearing the end of life. These individuals experienced a range of emotions and I found the work to be extremely profound and rewarding; therefore, pursued a Masters Level Education in Mental Health. I have experience working with various populations and severity of illness and have over 9 years of experience in direct practice. I am also certified in perinatal mood disorders. I have experience in a hospital setting ranging from the emergency department to NICU, ICU, oncology, postpartum, as well as outpatient mental health crisis clinic. I found my niche in a therapeutic setting of direct practice, helping individuals grow and overcome emotional obstacles that are causing disruption in your life.

Hi, I am Aurora Packard. Thank you for being authentic and realizing you’re ready for a change. Inside every experience, no matter how dark or hopeless it feels, no matter how anxious, avoidant, empty or lonely we feel, there is a next step on our path.

I am trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy, applied behavioral analysis, neuropsychology, and psychoanalysis. My interventions tend to be inclusive and can involve one, or all of these methods depending upon what would be most beneficial for you. The fields of humanistic and Adlerian psychology have also greatly influenced my approach as a therapist. As a result, when I am asked what my theoretical orientation is, I identify myself as “eclectic.” My experience has taught me that there is no singular “best” approach. Only what would be best for the individual seeking help. The benefit of my diversified training is that I am able to cater my interventions to meet your unique and specific needs.

I am an older woman, who simply grew up confused within most of my own life. Things in my family were hard, and there seemed to be nobody who had any answers, so I grew up trying to figure things out, and I did not always do a great job. I now do a much better job in my own life, and here to help others with figuring out their own life paths, choices, anxieties/depressions/etc. My struggles eventually lead me to this role, as a therapist, a counselor, teacher, guide, support for the many others who are having a hard time figuring "it" out. I use a direct, honest, root-digging approach that seeks to heal at the core, allowing for release of attachments and agreements made long ago - many of these lead to feelings/thoughts/behaviors within shame, guilt, feelings of being a burden or just not good enough, codependency, anger, anxieties, depressions, people-pleasing - simply to just survive the day.

I have been trained to diagnose and treat mental, emotional and behavioral disorders. My goal is to help individuals lead healthier and more fulfilling lives. I make every effort to provide a safe and nonjudgemental space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings and experiences.

I have worked with underserved (Medi-Cal) trauma survivors from different backgrounds, ages, races, incomes, languages, LGBTQ, war victims, homeless, schizophrenic, bipolar, refugees, and individuals of several other countries and belief systems. I have learned that an "Eternal Curiosity" is the most helpful tool to serve our clients effectively. I have also discovered that clients of different cultures and countries appreciate having a clinician ask for their experiences. "Their way to see the world."

Having been a licensed therapist for over 12 years, I have helped many different types of clients navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, adjusting to a new career or family dynamic, trauma, grief and loss, and issues with their family. I applaud you for seeking guidance and I look forward to helping you. I am several different ethnicities and have worked with many different populations including couples; families; teenagers (sometimes in conjunction with schools to help students change their dynamics at school and garner the help of administrators and teachers, as I am a former teacher); children, elderly clients; clients who have been discriminated against; clients who have been bullied, and clients who are navigating career changes as well as medical issues.

In my practice, I help adults alleviate the mental health symptoms of anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and other common stressors. My clients become empowered to live the life they really want and to consciously evolve for their betterment as a person.

I care about my client’s wellbeing and I’m here to help you feel heard and your difficulties taken seriously, no matter your circumstances. My approach to treatment is collaborative, and each session is designed to provide a safe and reliable space for you to explore the depths of your thoughts, feelings, and concerns. I apply evidence-based therapeutic practices to help you construct inner resilience to eventually achieve optimal functioning, while preventing the development of other mental health disorders. When clinically indicated, I use therapeutic tools like diagnostic self-report scales for screening diagnosis and severity of disorder, and I diagnose mental health disorders with an inclusive mindset to support cultural beliefs and influences. My clients have appreciated my ability to make others feel good about themselves, their self-determination, culture, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. In addition, I’ll recommend beneficial resources to increase your self-understanding and offer you human connection to your community.
