Change at any stage in life can cause a whirlwind of emotions—such as excitement, joy, relief and hope; but also worry, fear, concern and uncertainty. The change can be a new job, a new school, a new relationship, a new city, a new identity or a new experience. Therapy is a place that can help you navigate these changes—including the unanticipated stressors, challenges and adversities that you may experience along the way. Therapy is an opportunity that will empower you and mobilize you to reach your goals, dreams and aspirations; and lead you on a path towards a purposeful and meaningful life.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I provide services in English or Spanish. My goal is to help you identify your strengths, goals and abilities—and teach you the skills that you need to adjust to the unforeseeable circumstances that life may bring to you. For the last 6 years, I have served multicultural and diverse populations, of all ages, in a variety of settings—including K-12 institutions, forensic mental health, integrated health, inpatient psychiatric care and hospital emergency care. My leadership style is deeply rooted on that values and ethics of the social work practice; and I intend to provide you with a safe, supportive, welcoming and nurturing environment.

When we experience severe trauma or life stressors, our lives can start to collapse into a day-to-day struggle. Our normal coping mechanisms and our support systems can start to fail or no longer be enough to help pull us through the difficult time. The truth is, we cannot change our life experiences, but we can search to find solutions to help us overcome depression, addiction, anxiety, relationship difficulties. We can grow and become aware of our own strengths as we face our struggles. Sometimes we need that extra help to aid us in regaining life balance in our journey of self-discovery.
As a licensed family therapist with eight years of experience, I am passionate about helping adults navigate & explore complex challenges in order to work towards positive changes that are solution based.

¡Hablo Español! Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. My name is Roxana,
and I’m a first-generation Mexican-American, born and raised in Southern California. I proudly
served in the Marine Corps and have been working in mental health since 2012, providing case
management to individuals facing homelessness and severe mental illness. Over the years, I’ve
had the privilege of working in diverse settings throughout Riverside County, including Domestic
Violence and Forensic Mental Health, where I worked closely with men in the Criminal Justice
System.
During my practicum, I provided individual counseling to military members, veterans, and first
responders, helping them address relationship conflicts, PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
My therapeutic approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief
Therapy (SFBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), as well as Gottman Relationship
Method (Level 1). However, I believe that effective therapy begins with a genuine,
person-to-person connection—one that builds trust, fosters open communication, and creates a
sense of safety and mutual respect. My goal is to create a space where clients feel truly seen
and valued, and I occasionally use humor to support meaningful therapeutic work that fosters
long-lasting growth and change.

We'll collaborate on identifying your strengths, as it's important to recognize how your current mindset and decisions are impacting the challenges you face in life.

Hello, I’m Maria Fernanda Perez, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have worked in a helping capacity for over 19 years. I specialize in working with violence and trauma survivors, teens, adults who have experienced challenges in their lives. I support couples and families who desire to develop a deeper connection to their body. For many of my clients this looks like symptoms of high sensitivity, anxiety, depression, and trauma interfering with their ability to connect with themselves. My traditional mental health background has given me a solid foundation in helping others to better finding their inner self.

With over 25 years of experience working with people from all walks of life, I offer guidance to those feeling stuck, hopeless, or helpless. If you feel as if no matter how hard you try, your mind continues to bombard you with negative feedback, I can help you. Through a methodical approach to thought identification, you can learn to pinpoint the thoughts that trigger negative emotions and keep you trapped in a cycle of despair. My goal is to empower you to reclaim control over your mental state and find meaning in your life. Together, we will work towards a brighter and more fulfilling future.
I can also teach you how to live a meaningful life based on your values and goals. If you are suffering from PTSD, I can help by providing you with the tools needed to challenge the thoughts that you may have developed as a result of your trauma. If your relationship is suffering due to PTSD symptoms, I can help you develop healthy coping mechanisms that can improve your relationship.
I began my career working with undocumented single mothers in need of financial skills to support their families. From there I worked with the undocumented population helping them secure resources for their basic needs and empowering them to become self-sufficient. I also worked with the LGBTQIA+ community in three different roles: providing psychoeducation to newly HIV diagnosed individuals and their families, as a case manager providing resources for newly HIV diagnosed undocumented citizens, and finally, as a clinician providing individual therapy for those with depression, anxiety, or PTSD.
Later in my career, I worked with the Forensic Juvenile Department providing in-home family therapy to families involved in the criminal justice system. I have also worked with individuals suffering from personality disorders. Currently, I provide individual and group therapy.

I get it, life can be freaking hard sometimes — full of highs, lows, and everything in between. It’s completely normal to feel like it’s all too much. But here’s the truth: there is nothing wrong with you, and you don’t need to be “fixed.” Feeling lost or stuck doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It simply means you’re navigating the complexities of life and your human experience.
You are worthy of support as you move through life’s challenges. Whether you’re seeking relief from trauma, ADHD, anxiety, burnout, struggles with self-esteem, or a major life transition—or simply trying to find yourself again—you deserve the space to do deep inner work and uncover what is waiting to heal within you. I know it can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone
I’m here to offer a safe space where you can show up as your full self and feel truly seen, heard, and held through it all. I’ll hype you up, keep it real, and probably make you laugh—all while helping you connect the dots in ways you have not explored. I'll encourage you to feel because healing isn’t just about talking—it’s about feeling, releasing, and reclaiming your power.
As a holistic therapist, I see you as so much more than a set of symptoms.I see the whole you. Your mind, body, soul, and spirit are all deeply connected, and true healing happens when we honor all parts of you. Together, we’ll develop compassion and resilience while creating space for healing and lasting change.

"Hola!" Hello! My name is Mitzi (she/her), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Orange County, CA. I am happy you are here. I know that deciding to take the first step to seek help or support can be very scary, especially if you feel like your family or culture does not understand or approve of asking for help/ receiving mental health services. I can relate! I hope that together we can get you to a place where you grow and heal from past experiences. I hope to provide a safe and respectful space to engage in meaningful conversations with you.
I have been a mental health therapist/clinical social worker for about 9 years now. I currently work in a community mental health program as a Bilingual Clinical Supervisor and started there as a Bilingual Clinician after graduating with my MSW degrees in 2015.
I love helping to empower others and I really do consider it a passion of mine. I really enjoy building relationships with my clients and being there as support through whatever life stressors they are going through. I enjoy using humor when appropriate. I want my clients to feel comfortable and like they can be themselves when we work together. If this sounds like something that you might be looking for in a therapist, I look forward to connecting with you.
