Hello and thank you so much for having enough courage and honesty to take the first big step. My name is Erlynn Cabarles, LCSW and I have a Master’s in Social Work from SFSU.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with a trauma-informed, somatic & relational approach to therapy. I work with thoughtful adults who want to understand themselves more deeply, reconnect with their bodies, and create more ease and clarity in their relationships. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in nervous system education—supporting meaningful, lasting change rather than quick fixes.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with adults and children who feel overwhelmed, emotionally worn down, or disconnected from themselves. Many people I meet are doing everything they can to keep going—showing up for work or school, caring for others, and managing daily responsibilities—while quietly carrying, or sometimes openly expressing, anxiety, anger, sadness, or a deep sense of exhaustion inside. At times, life no longer feels familiar. Reactions may feel bigger than expected. It can be hard to recognize yourself or understand why things feel so difficult. As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that these experiences are not signs of weakness. My work is grounded in the belief that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and supported at their own pace. I offer a calm, steady presence and a space where adults and children can begin to feel more regulated, more connected, and more like themselves again. Therapy is not about pushing through or forcing change. It is about slowing down, listening to what the mind and body are holding, and gently creating space for relief, clarity, and growth. My role is to walk alongside you—helping you make sense of what you’re experiencing, restore a sense of inner stability, and reconnect with the deeper “heart” of who you are: the part that holds resilience, self-compassion, strength, and the capacity for joy, even when it doesn’t feel that way yet.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, integrating modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you untangle unhelpful patterns, build resilience, and develop practical tools for lasting change. Together, we’ll work to strengthen your self-awareness, enhance your coping skills, and empower you to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and well-being.
