I bring a wealth of experience to my practice, having worked in a variety of clinical settings. My career includes significant time spent in residential programs for at-risk youths, where I developed a deep understanding of the challenges faced by this group. Additionally, I have experience in the K-12 educational setting, providing crisis support and guidance to students in need. In my career, I have taught numerous parenting courses across several schools, sharing valuable insights and strategies with parents to help them support their children's development effectively. My approach to therapy is rooted in individualized care. I believe that each client is unique, and I tailor my therapeutic methods to fit their specific needs. As a bilingual therapist, I have the distinct capability of conducting therapeutic sessions in both English and Spanish, broadening the scope of clients I can support effectively. I completed my master’s degree in Counselor Education at San Jose State University, which provided me with a strong foundation in counseling principles and techniques. I take great joy in working with children of all ages and backgrounds, as well as with adults. In sessions with younger clients, I often incorporate play therapy to encourage openness and engagement. This approach allows children to express themselves in a comfortable and natural way. For adult clients, I utilize talk therapy interventions, focusing on creating a safe space for dialogue and healing.

Hey, I'm Olivia! Are you ready to laugh, cry and create a connection with someone who is not going to give you cookie-cutter responses? Then keep reading. I am passionate about creating a safe space for my clients to throw it all out on the table, be met with compassion and validation and begin to piece together what they want to keep and what they want to toss. Many times in our lives, we put on certain identities and expectations that may not be ours but we keep them on out of comfort, fear, habit, you name it. I am here to help you sift through the pieces of you that you know but also become curious about the parts of yourself that you do not know. During that process, you can begin to find power in your choices and practice the art of being able to decide for yourself who it is you want to be. The stories you have come to believe about yourself are worth exploring and together, we can build a relationship where I will challenge those beliefs with you and assist you in building confidence to shift into your most authentic and understood self.

Do you struggle with people-pleasing, anxiety, depression, internalized and/or externalized anger, or managing emotions in general in a healthy manner? Did you experience childhood trauma and feel like you grew up too fast? Were you labeled "different," "the "caretaker," "black sheep," or "troublemaker"? I teach people how to prioritize and honor all parts of themselves, not just the "desirable" ones. We will work through parts people generally dismiss and ignore such as anger, resentment, shame, and disgust, and learn how to embrace them gracefully. I'll teach you the skills to feel more at peace. As your therapist, I will be challenging and direct, yet empathetic and compassionate. I will challenge you through introspective questioning that will lead you to your own answers. I help you take what you've learned and apply it to your own life by giving you things to think about and work on between sessions, along with resources and handouts to remember. I hope you'll witness yourself feeling more empowered, confident, and more at peace with yourself as my other clients have. You will notice your relationships evolve and change, which can be scary! Rest assured, you will be provided with skills to gracefully go through them. Everything you seek is already inside you. All I’m doing is helping you remember.

I am a warm, experienced therapist who helps clients heal and navigate life after traumatic experiences and toxic relationships. With extensive experience working alongside students, professionals and veterans, my approach is tailored to meet you where you are. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and EMDR helps you move through pain, regain clarity, and restore hope. If you’ve been carrying pain, shame, or uncertainty for a long time, it’s easy to believe that change is impossible. But I’ve seen over and over again that when someone is given the right environment—one where they feel seen, valued, and supported—they can rebuild, heal, and grow in ways they never imagined. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here to walk alongside you. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You don’t have to be “ready” in the way you might think. You just have to be willing to show up, exactly as you are, and let the process unfold.

Hi there, I'm Kristine. My philosophy in life is to live life knowing yesterday is gone, today is what matters, and tomorrow is out of our control. It is important to focus on life and be mindful and aware of ourselves. I use this in my practice to help my clients become self-aware and become their happiest selves. What I find most intriguing as a mental health professional is how therapy can be so empowering and life changing when the client believes and is open for a change. I believe strongly in my cultural values along with values of Social Work (respect, kindness, love, strong family values, gentleness, service to humanity, social justice, integrity, competence, human dignity and worth). The roles I play in life is of a mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend, licensed clinical social worker and a therapist. Someone who always has a leveled head and sees a way out. I pay attention to how I treat people in their most vulnerable times; hence, treat them as I would like to be treated. *** Please note that I am only able to schedule intakes on the hour (i.e. 3:00), and cannot accommodate appointments on the half hour (i.e. 3:30). Thank you for your understanding as we work to improve the scheduling platform. ***.

Hello there future client! Lovely to meet you! My name is Rachelle (pronounced rey-chuhl). I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a specialization in Art Therapy, bilingual English/Spanish speaking, a first gen Dominican-American, and former New Yorker living in SoCal. I specialize in supporting BIPOC experiencing chronic mental health issues define themselves as individuals and not by any trauma they may have experienced. In addition to applying a trauma-informed lens, psychology, and art, I integrate holistic approaches like Reiki, meditation, mindfulness, and sound therapy to create unique treatment interventions for my clients. I know that starting therapy can feel scary. Especially when you have been labeled as "the problem", think you are not good enough, or have been conditioned to suppress your emotions. This is why developing trust in the first stage of treatment is of the utmost importance to me. I apply a compassionate and non-judgmental stance to help my clients feel safe when sharing their stories and starting their therapeutic journey. Think we could be a good fit? Go ahead and schedule your first session. Let's work together to help you connect with your authentic self and improve your mental health! Looking forward to hearing from you! Please note - I am not a good fit for clients interested in couples therapy, clients engaging in self-harm, clients experiencing any type of suicidal ideation including thoughts of death/dying, clients who have been hospitalized for psychiatric reasons at anytime in the past 12 months, clients needing support with substance abuse, and/or children aged 8 and under.
