Hello, I'm Danell.
Do you ever feel your past getting in the way of your future? Is it hard to be positive?
As a counselor, my role is to provide support and guidance to help individuals make positive changes in their lives. I’m ready to listen to your thoughts, fears, and concerns without judgment. I find that many times individuals already know the solution. My goal is to help you identify the barriers that are holding you back. My approach focuses on identifying past traumas that are affecting your daily life and helping you to process them.

Hello, I am Maritza!
Are you looking for a purpose or a sense of direction in your life? Perhaps feeling overwhelmed by your emotions and feeling as if you are unable to make decisions? Therapy can benefit and serve as a powerful strategy to learn tailored tools to help you navigate your emotions and put you back on track. As you may know, life has a way of presenting people with challenges they could have possibly not imagined would have to face. This can lead to anxiety, depression, grief, and ultimately a life transition. I believe that finding our purpose for life, can help us get through our lives with a more meaningful and mindful perspective.
My approach is a mindful one, in which I help clients explore their internal thoughts and emotions their body and mind provide and guide them so they can have greater awareness and make healthier conscious choices. I specialized in grief and loss, CBT, DBT . Clients who work with me tend to need support to break out of negative patterns, have a better understanding of themselves, have a need to find purpose in their life, be able to engage and have healthy relationships, and have a desire to achieve a higher quality of life.
I enjoy meeting each client where they are at, and together exploring what they enjoy in life to build on their strengths and empower individual mental health wellness. Whatever it is you are dealing with in your life right now, you do not have to go through it alone. I would like to help you, and in our sessions together I will meet you with compassionate perspective and ensure you a non-judgmental experience. Let's work together and get you to your max potential abilities. (I am Spanish speaking as well!)

I am happy to discuss in-depth but for now, know that I am most heavily oriented in the work of folx like Project Nia; Interrupting Criminalization; Equitable Care Certification, and Survived & Punished. Of course, I am still deepening my learning and praxis, as one ought.
As a RESOURCE MAVEN, I facilitate linkages to information & resources to support people’s wellbeing. Meaning I actually make the calls with you, etc., if wanted/needed. This type of support is a major source of joy for me & something that I’m happy to help with!
I’m a FACILITATOR of JOY because, as a Queer, Disabled, Neurodivergent, fat, Gender Nonconforming Black person, I place special emphasis on helping marginalized folx find and (re)create joy in a world that denies us joy.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my focus is on understanding the environmental and contextual factors at play in your life. I come to therapy with a trauma-informed/healing-centered perspective and work collaboratively with you on determining what kinds of interventions are best suited for your needs.
My approach is laid back and can be viewed as “coachy,” meaning I ask questions and provide feedback to help you figure out solutions that will work for your life. I also encourage you to bring your creative and spiritual practices to therapy, so if you want to include art, tarot, crystals, ancestor reverence, etc., we can do that!

My specialties include treating PTSD/trauma, mood disorders, attachment and relationship issues, addictive processes, Jungian/psychodynamic therapy, and psychedelic integration for individuals seeking out states of expanded consciousness. I am deeply passionate about helping clients access their Inner Healing Wisdom.
I believe that an individual’s encounter with their personal unconscious is essential for the healing process. Our unconscious is a sacred cave where we store our insecurities, fantasies, painful memories, deepest fears, and feelings of guilt and shame. It's also a place where we hid away aspects of our authentic selves that could not "fit" into our environment growing up. I believe that true healing happens when we feel safe enough to explore this hidden cave and integrate it’s contents into our authentic Self. My goal is co-create this foundation of safety and trust with you so we can explore the cave together with courage, compassion, and curiosity.

Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, grief, emotional numbness, or a lost sense of self, my primary goal is to help you reconnect with your authentic inner being. I empower individuals to realign with their core values, fostering a sense of strength and confidence to live as their truest selves.
I take a holistic approach, integrating mind, body, and spirit in my practice. In addition to Western psychology, I incorporate indigenous healing traditions to support the development of a whole and grounded sense of self.
Whether you’re looking to unpack years of complex trauma, build healthier relationships, or navigate cycles of depression and anxiety, I am here to walk alongside you with compassion and grace. Learning to love yourself and cultivate meaningful connections begins with honoring who you are at your core.
As your therapist, I serve as a teacher, a guide, and a facilitator of growth and healing—helping you step into the fullness of who you are.

Firestone Park, CA - Accepting clients in CA
I was born and raised in California, the daughter of immigrants from Mexico, they came to the United States hoping for a better future and opportunities. I am a first-generation college graduate and understand the sacrifices many parents make to give their children a better future. I attended California State University Dominguez Hills and have a background in Child Development and Human Services. I recognize that it takes courage and vulnerability to embark on a journey of self-discovery through therapy. I have a strong background in Critical Race Theory, which offered me a lens to analyze critically how systems of oppression affect people in underserved communities. I work from a trauma-sensitive, client-centered approach. I have worked in community mental health for six years, helping individuals recognize their potential and greatness. My values and beliefs embody my Mexican culture and spirituality. They align with the core values of the social work profession of service, respect, justice, dignity, the worth of a person, self-determination, integrity, importance of human relationships, and competence (National Association of Social Workers [NASW], 2017). I believe individuals can rebuild their lives, change, and recover. Effective helping constitutes the ability to believe that people can change by showing empathy, showing them that you care, respecting their culture, and by showing people that what you do is consistent with what you say.
