Hi, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in Northern California for 20+ years. I believe everyone has inner wisdom that is often difficult to access when we have dealt with trauma, fear, shaming and abuse. My goal is to help clients access the parts of themselves that they feel disconnected from or would like to develop further. I believe very strongly that healing and change are possible at any age! I like to teach skills that help with finding the strong parts of each person, that may have been suppressed or cut off, due to life circumstances.

I am a bilingual LMFT. In 1991 I obtained a B.H in Social Psychology from The Universidad Autonoma de Baja California (Mexico). In 2008, I graduated from University of Phoenix with a M.A in Marriage, Family, and Child therapy. I have more than 20 years working with patients (adolescents, parents, adults, and couples) to improve relationships, mental and/or emotional issues related with depression, anxiety, phobias, traumas, psychosocial stressors and life challenges and goals.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and my approach is rooted in warmth, empathy, and respect for each client’s unique experience. I aim to create a supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment. I use an integrative approach, blending CBT, ACT, CPT, and Exposure Therapy. These evidence-based methods help address issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress, fostering resilience and personal growth.

Kelli Lundin is a trauma informed yoga teacher, writer, Land protector, and mother of 4. Trained by Gabor Maté and Sat Dharam Kaur in the Compassionate Inquiry process, Kelli's intention as a psychotherapist is to bring awareness to all facets of ourselves. When we witness these parts with compassion, we become whole, liberated, and restored to our True Nature. As we become more present and connected with ourselves, there is safety and space for authentic expression through our body, psyche, life, and community. Kelli specializes in Complex Trauma; "a psychic wound that hardens you psychologically and then interferes with your ability to grow and develop. It pains you and now you're acting out of pain. It induces fear and now you're acting out of fear. Trauma is not what happens to you, it's what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you." This is often revealed through symptoms of depression, anxiety, and addiction. Our emotions are not tangential to our health. They are a signaling intelligence that can alert us to all sorts of phenomenon in our experience.

Hi, I’m Kristine Asatryan, LCSW. Life can be overwhelming at times, and it takes courage to reach out for support. My goal as a therapist is to help you reconnect with your inner strength, find balance, and create a more peaceful, fulfilling life. My philosophy is simple: yesterday is gone, today is what matters, and tomorrow is out of our control. I help my clients focus on the present moment, build self-awareness, and make meaningful changes that lead to lasting growth. I strive to provide a warm, compassionate space where you feel safe to explore your emotions and challenges without judgment. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship stress, trauma, or simply feeling lost, therapy can be a powerful path toward healing and clarity. As a mother, wife, daughter, sister, and friend, I understand the importance of human connection and the many roles we juggle in life. My approach blends empathy, mindfulness, and cultural sensitivity with practical tools for emotional wellness. My work is guided by the values of respect, kindness, love, family, service, and integrity — the same principles that shape who I am both personally and professionally. If you’re ready to rediscover your confidence, calm, and purpose, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Please note: Sessions are scheduled on the hour (e.g., 3:00 PM), not on the half-hour (e.g., 3:30 PM). Thank you for your understanding as we improve our scheduling system.

Do you suffer from constant anxiety and or panic attacks? Do you have a history of loss, difficult relationships and other traumatic experiences that hurt when you think about them today?

I am trained in a few research-based treatments for trauma and parenting. I am a Faith Based Christian Therapist. I received my Bachelor's in Social Work from Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland and my Master's in Social Work from Stanislaus State in Turlock, California where I served 5 years as a Professor in the MSW Department teaching on The Effects of Childhood Trauma.

You may not have the words for it yet—but you know something needs to change. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I specialize in working with adults who are high-functioning on the surface but silently struggling underneath. My clients are often caretakers, overthinkers, and perfectionists who carry a lot of shame, self-doubt, or old wounds they’ve never been given the space to process. Many of them don’t realize how much pain they’ve been holding for years—until they finally slow down and begin to feel it. In our work together, we won’t just talk about what’s going on—we’ll explore what’s underneath it. I use EMDR, parts work, and trauma-informed care to help you untangle the beliefs, patterns, and protective strategies that are keeping you stuck. Therapy with me is honest, grounding, and deeply compassionate. I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll go at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. This is a space where you don’t have to be the strong one. You don’t have to make sense of it all before you show up. You just have to be willing to start. I’d be honored to walk with you through the healing process.
