Hello, I'm Sonia Torres, a Marriage Family Therapist licensed in California. I believe we are all resilient beings and I am passionate about supporting my clients through their healing journey with compassion and encouragement. I received my Masters' degree from Pacific Oaks College in Pasadena, CA and have 20 years of experience in the therapeutic field, working with children, adults and families.

Hi, I’m Angie. Are you ready to make some positive changes that will improve your life? Maybe you’re suffering from depression, or anxiety is imposing limitations on how you live your life. Your journey and the life experience that led you here can be complicated, multidimensional, and diverse. I believe the approach to your psychotherapy should be as dynamic as you are and shouldn’t be limited to a “one theory fits all” methodology. You don’t have to face these challenges alone.

I am the kind of clinician who will utilize real-life references and examples of how the interventions work, I am transparent, and nonjudgmental and will share with you the exact intent of my interventions. I have been working with children, adults couples and families throughout my career, I've been practicing for 26 years. I tailor my interventions to clients' expressed needs and goals collaboratively as I believe the client is the expert of their own lives, and my job is to help reframe and redirect self-awareness to ones existing strengths and to build upon them.

I understand that making the decision to start therapy can feel overwhelming and intimidating. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma or everyday life struggles; we can work together to help you reach your highest potential. I know we can feel stuck, our minds constantly overthinking, which leaves us feeling emotionally exhausted. I aim to help adults on this journey called life by learning coping skills, changing negative thinking patterns, and improve self-esteem. I believe in using a whole-self approach, finding the connection between the mind, body, and spirit. I focus on creating a safe space for you to truly heal, grow, and build insight. Through compassion, reflection, and evidence-based strategies, I will walk along side you every step of the way.

Mental health is more than just managing symptoms. It’s about fostering overall well-being, inner peace, and resilience. I have ten years of practice using a holistic approach that integrates mind, body, and spirit, offering you personalized care that honors your unique experiences, culture, and values. I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health services that empower individuals to achieve emotional well-being and personal growth. Through a client-centered approach, I create a safe, supportive environment where each person is treated with respect, empathy, and understanding. My goal is to help individuals and families overcome life’s challenges, foster resilience, and promote long-lasting mental health and wellness.

With over to 20 years of experience working alongside children, teens, adults, and families, I’ve learned the importance of meeting people exactly where they are, whether mentally, emotionally, or sometimes even physically. My “out-of-the-box” approach is flexible and adaptable to each individual's unique needs, offering creative, client-centered strategies where you can feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore at your own pace. My journey began in community-based settings, working with individuals and families often navigating complex systems. That foundation shaped my core belief: to show up to each session with curiosity and deep respect for each person’s unique story. My approach has always been to meet clients where they are, helping them discover healthier coping mechanisms and become more effective in their daily lives. Therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all. I tailor each session to your unique needs, integrating different modalities to support your growth in ways that feel natural and accessible to you. As your therapist, I show up as my authentic self, with the intention of creating a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore at your own pace. I offer an environment where you can express yourself freely, gain deeper insight into your thoughts and emotions, and develop tools to navigate life’s challenges more effectively.

I am a first‑generation, bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 15 years of experience providing trauma‑informed, culturally responsive mental health care. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating acculturation stress, complex family dynamics, anxiety, trauma, and high‑pressure roles—including first responders, healthcare professionals, and those experiencing maternal and perinatal mental health challenges.

I integrate Brainspotting for trauma processing and nervous system regulation, along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution‑Focused Therapy to help clients reduce anxiety, build coping skills, and create meaningful, sustainable change. As a culturally attuned therapist, I believe therapy should honor your lived experience—not a one‑size‑fits‑all model. I strive to create a supportive, affirming space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped to navigate life’s challenges with resilience, clarity, and confidence.

My name is Arakel Aristakessian and I am a first generation American of Armenian immigrants. There is never a lack of drama in my family and I think it is important to be mindful of cultural expectations and norms when navigating conflict. In this fashion, I use an individualized approach to meet my clients' needs. My style of therapy is grounded in the person-centered approach. I practice listening with empathy to my client’s lived experiences. I remind myself that it is not my place to judge anyone for their past choices. It is my responsibility to respond honestly and respectfully. My hope is to mediate shame, so that people feel comfortable and safe in opening up about what is troubling them. Once the therapeutic space feels safe, only then can various treatment methods truly be effective.

It takes courage to accept and seek help and set out on your recovery journey. My focus in our work will be on meeting you where you are at and in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we can collaborate and explore what can be helpful in addressing your needs, wants, and barriers to getting them met. Together, we will challenge ourselves to show up authentically in relationship so we can examine the areas of your life that you would like support in. These areas can often include examining how systemic and cultural factors influence our perception of ourselves, others, and the world. My hope in our work together is that you'll come away with a renewed sense of self and identity that not only addresses the hardships and challenges you have endured, but also empowers you to affirm your sense of agency, and make your mark on the world.

I’m a Latino therapist who specializes in working with trauma, identity, and the emotional weight that comes from growing up in high-stress environments. I help people make sense of patterns rooted in past experiences — whether that’s family dysfunction, grief, street violence, or cultural pressure — so they can move through life with more clarity and less emotional reactivity. My style is honest, direct, and grounded. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods and listens — I’ll challenge you when needed and help you get to the core of what’s keeping you stuck. I work especially well with first-generation men, individuals processing childhood or gang-related trauma, and those navigating the tension between cultural loyalty and personal growth. I’ve spent the last five years working across community mental health, jail reentry, and school-based settings — including the LA County Department of Mental Health, homeless outreach in South Central, and now as a therapist in a middle school. My approach is shaped by both clinical training and real-life experience supporting clients in some of the most challenging situations.

I have worked with a range of populations, individuals as young as 4 years old to 55 years old, individuals of several different cultures, the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with developmental disabilities, families, individuals, and couples. My passion is working with children and adults who have experienced trauma. This being said, I have experience with a range of challenges from anger management, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, exploring healthy and unhealthy relationships, low self esteem and self confidence, parenting issues, LGBTQ+ issues, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and blended families.

Hi! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California with over 22 years of joy and experience working with clients in their difficult times.

With a background in neuroscience research, I approach healing through a brain–body lens, including the digestive system and gut–brain connection. My style is collaborative, compassionate, warm and thoughtfully paced.

Facing changes and challenges alone can be incredibly difficult. I believe everyone deserves a compassionate and understanding supporter to help during these times. I strive to offer my clients a safe environment free of judgement for gentle exploration of what is getting in the way of living an authentic, courageous, fulfilling life. I would be honored to accompany you on your journey to wholeness - so reach out, give me a call, and let's create a life you love.

Hello! My name is Ankita Mohanty (ahn-KEE-tha mo-HAHN-thee), and I use she/her pronouns. My work is informed by my training in relational psychodynamics, expressive arts, and Buddhist psychology, as well as personal practices in conscious dance, vipassana meditation, poetry, and nature-based ceremony/ritual. I received by BA in Psychology and Women's Studies from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and my Masters in Social Work from UC Berkeley.

I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist with 20 years experience working with individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, anger management, miscommunication in relationships, relational breakups, life transitions and LGBTQ+ challenges. I practice an eclectic combination of person centered, collaborative and goal oriented counseling approaches as we work together, learning to identify the patterns that no longer provide you with the life you desire. Identifying and practicing new skills to make the small changes allows you to find your strengths and solutions to return you to your best self.

I’m Melissa Lapides, and my work centers around attachment. If you’re dating or in a relationship, we’re going to look at how your early experiences shaped the way you connect, protect, pursue, withdraw, or repeat the same patterns over and over. Together, we make sense of why you’re experiencing the challenges you’re having — not from a place of blame, but from understanding. I work with both individuals and couples to help them build more harmonious relationships rooted in emotional safety, secure connection, and real love and intimacy. When you understand your attachment style and nervous system, your relationship patterns stop feeling confusing and start feeling workable. I’m warm, direct, and grounded — think compassionate but honest. I’ll hold space for your pain, and I’ll also gently call you forward when you’re ready. I believe most struggles make sense in the context of your story and your nervous system, not because something is “wrong” with you. My goal is to help you feel more regulated, more connected, and more empowered in your relationships and your life. Healing doesn’t have to be dramatic — it can be steady, real, and deeply transformative.

“The courage to change is the courage to be a stranger to yourself.” We say we want to evolve, yet we cling to habits that keep us small. Why? Because the "old you"—even if miserable—is predictable. Change is disorienting because it requires us to step into a life we haven’t rehearsed. If you sabotage your growth just as things shift, you aren’t "broken". You are likely operating on an internal blueprint designed to protect you from pain, abandonment, and conflict. Your brain is pulling you back to the "unhappy familiar" because it believes staying stuck is safer than moving forward. My goal is to help you uncover the invisible scripts that keep you stuck. We bypass the cycle of "trying harder" by addressing the identity your habits are fiercely protecting. Real change isn’t a cosmetic fix; it's the brave process of letting go of who you were to make room for who you are becoming. In session, we will work on: The Fear of the New: Navigating the "liminal space"—the middle ground where the old you is gone, but the new you doesn't feel like home yet. Identity Deconstruction: Identifying the stories you tell yourself and testing their validity. Nervous System Regulation: Learning to stay present when the "alarm bells" of change ring. Developing Sovereignty: Moving from victimization to empowerment, where you are finally the one making the decisions. Results for my clients often look like: The "Pause" Reflex: Noticing the urge to self-sabotage in real-time and choosing a new response before auto-pilot takes over. Narrative Shift: Moving from a language of past failure to a focus on current capacity. Tolerance for the Unknown: Feeling "steady ground" even when circumstances are shifting. Internal Alignment: The friction between your intentions and your actions begins to disappear.

Hello, I’m Cesar. Do you feel overwhelmed with life’s challenges and feel you are being pulled in a million directions? Are you looking to restore balance to your life and mind? Has your self-esteem taken a hit due to the constant changes and expectations of society? Are you looking to improve or change the trajectory of your life? I work with adults who experience mental health concerns that range from anxiety, depression, impulse control, inattentiveness, trauma, behavioral concerns, relationship challenges and difficulties with establishing healthy boundaries. Together, we can restore your psychological and emotional health along with devising a plan to help achieve your goals. We will explore underlying concerns that are driving destructive behaviors and develop effective ways to improve overall functioning in all environments.

Therapy can be a unique opportunity to work through and resolve obstacles that are preventing you from leading the life you truly deserve. I provide a safe and supportive space to facilitate emotional well-being, healing and growth. I utilize an interactive approach and will challenge you when needed. Therapy can be short-term or long-term depending on your specific needs. I work with individuals, couples, and families. My areas of speciality include anxiety, complex traumas and chronic pain.
