Sometimes, the most profound connections are formed when someone truly listens.I’m Cintia, here not just to hear, but to deeply understand you. In a world where trauma and anxiety often drown out our inner voices, I know that beneath the spoken words, lies a heart’s true narrative. What a degree in Clinical Psychology and a seven-year journey as a therapist has allowed me to is delve deep into the realms of trauma, anxiety, and depression. While these are my primary focuses, I also bring profound insights into PTSD, intricate family dynamics, relationship challenges, and concerns faced by the LGBTQ community.

Trauma and PTSD
With ten years of psychotherapy experience, I’m passionate about helping people heal from trauma, manage anxiety and depression, and build more confident, fulfilling futures. My career has included community mental health, day centers for adults with severe mental illness, crisis shelters for youth, and an elementary school. For the past two years, I’ve had the privilege of providing focused, personalized care in private practice. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and have been using this approach with clients for over a year while actively working toward certification. EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based method that helps people process and release distressing memories, creating more peace and resilience in the present. For clients not yet ready for trauma reprocessing, I also provide resourcing and stabilization techniques to strengthen coping skills and emotional regulation. While EMDR is a central part of my work, I also draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and other evidence-based methods to ensure each session is tailored to your needs. My approach is flexible and collaborative—we adjust our work together based on what feels most supportive in the moment. I specialize in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and self-worth work. My background includes eight years in community mental health, more than two years working in a youth shelter supporting teens through family conflict and major transitions, a year in an elementary school, and two years in private practice. At the heart of my practice is a safe, non-judgmental environment where your voice matters. I believe in meeting clients where they are and working together toward meaningful, sustainable progress—whether that means processing the past, feeling grounded in the present, or moving forward with confidence.

My experience covers adults and adolescents in areas of trauma, anxiety, self-esteem, grief/loss, infertility, adoption, life transitions, and suicidal ideation/attempted recovery. I know therapy can be scary and intimidating, however with me you will feel like I really do care and understand what you are trying to say.

Are you tired of the non-stop chatter in your head judging every move you make? Is the constant loop of negative thinking making you feel like you are not good enough? No matter how many times you try to talk yourself out of this—you just can't seem to shake it. You are doing all the things you’ve been told to do and yet something is missing. You feel alone. You feel misunderstood. You feel anxious. You turn to food, alcohol, Netflix, or whatever else that can make these feelings go away. You promise yourself that next week will be different. You will start the new diet or the new program, you will commit to being a new you. What if there is another way? I work with women to get this cycle can end. There can be freedom from the despair caused by believing that you are not good enough. You want a deeper connection in your relationships. You want more joy in your life. You want less stress and worry. I can help you get there. There is a different path.

Hello! I'm Gustavo Olvera and I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT), serving clients via telehealth throughout the State of California. My long-time approach to therapy is to meet the client where they are and work with them to identify goals that will help them improve their quality of life. I believe that we all have the potential to succeed in life and the potential to achieve greatness. A healthy mind is key to success, as we often have to make critical decisions daily. I believe we can all achieve our desired goals by increasing and maintaining a positive outlook on our mental health. What attracted me to wanting to become a therapist was my true and honest desire to help others. Seeing how clients benefit from therapy, seeing how clients can truly overcome their mental illness, and seeing how clients can return to normal and healthy day-to-day living is what drives me to continue to do the work that I do. Today I invite you, to allow yourself to start your journey to a better tomorrow; I am inviting you to take a chance. Sadly we can't change what happened yesterday, nor do we know what will happen tomorrow, but we can hope for a better tomorrow by making positive decisions today.

Hello. I am a licensed social worker in California. I began practicing in the mental health/behavioral health field in 2011. I originally was licensed in Maryland in 2015 but then returned to California in 2016. Since starting in the field, I have worked with individuals ranging in age from 4 years old to 75 years old; most experience working with individuals between the ages of 10 and 35. I have experience working with individuals experiencing homelessness, depression, anxiety, parenting problems, and relationship issues. I am an ally of the LGBTQI community and can provide a safe, telehealth space for them. Unfortunately, at this time, I cannot accommodate individuals seeking letters for emotional support animals or those mandated by the court or legal system for therapy. With that said, my goal in being a counselor, is to assist my clients in meeting their identified treatment needs. I am flexible and willing to do whatever I need to do to assist you and help you in any way that I can. If when viewing my profile, you feel as though I am a good fit, but my schedule does not meet your scheduling needs, please feel free to send me a message as I may be able to fit you in at a different time.

Parenting can be tough. You wonder if your child will ever grow out of their excessive worries, meltdowns, or tantrums, and you become exhausted and feel guilty for being frustrated with them. The nightly battles with homework and reports from school are wearing you down. The power struggle with your spirited toddler or your strong-willed adolescent may leave you overwhelmed and wondering what you can do differently. Communicating and feeling unified with your partner or caregiver may be difficult or your styles may be different, creating a state of uncertainty or chaos in the home. It is okay to feel overwhelmed. It is also okay to strive for more. You know the potential your child has, and living in a world where you can better help them navigate their development is possible. My goal is to empower you and your child by finding effective parenting strategies and coping skills that work for your family, allowing your child to thrive. I work with children, families, parents, and caregivers to ease the tension that emotions, outbursts, tantrums, and anxiety can bring children and their families. Parents are welcome for parent support as well as for individual therapy to improve their emotional response when triggered by parenting issues. Children are welcome between the ages of 2 and 7 years for Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). Let's begin working towards a more peaceful and intentional parenting experience. I welcome all families from all walks of life.

I am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice, in California. My therapeutic approach is grounded in commonsense, honest dialogue, reflective listening, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. I incorporate breath work, journaling, dream exploration, and present-moment awareness to support deeper self-understanding. Our personal stories—full of both gratitude and regret—offer insight into the choices we make. In therapy, we explore those patterns, discover new options, and move forward with courage and compassion. Clients leave with practical tools, greater self-awareness, and a foundation of personal responsibility that supports lasting freedom.
