Hi there, I’m Dr. O.
Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed by worry, or caught in patterns of overthinking—about yourself or your relationships?
Do you find it difficult to extend patience and compassion toward yourself?
I provide therapy for adults (18 and older) navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward—especially after experiencing significant loss or major life changes.
With over 10 years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping individuals rebuild, heal, and reconnect with themselves after difficult experiences, including relationship distress, grief, and family conflict.
I believe that you are the expert of your own story. My role is to support you in uncovering your strengths, deepening emotional resilience, and creating meaningful, sustainable change. I use a collaborative, evidence-based approach tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Together, we will work toward helping you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned in your life.
Let’s begin.
As a therapist, I join my clients in a warm, challenging, accepting way, which allows you to express a range of emotions, so that you may learn and grow. I am there to support you in exploring all parts of yourself, which we often hide from others because of early experiences, shame, and trauma. In exploring, you gain a deeper understanding of the life you desire. I am trained in a multitude of modalities, I work with an attachment based, trauma informed, culturally attuned, psychodynamic lens. I am also trained in EMDR.
I have experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma and adults experiencing acute emotional distress or psychiatric episodes. I also understand the Latinx and first-generation experience. I grew up learning the power of strength and resilience, but also how easily we forget to care for ourselves. That's part of what inspired me to become a therapist. I understand that you are carrying a lot, sometimes from past generations. It's okay to reach out for help. I can help you navigate through generational trauma, cultural identity struggles, and the internal tension between honoring family sacrifices and pursuing personal independence. I can also help you navigate life transitions, grief and loss, and family conflict. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I offer a warm, collaborative space for you to seek deeper understanding and meaningful change. Healing happens in connection with others, and together we can cultivate the path toward growth, resilience, and wholeness. Healing is not only possible, but it's also a brave and powerful thing to do.
Hi, I'm Casandra, and I'm glad you are here! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with a master's degree from the University of Southern California. I decided to become a therapist because I love being able to help others. One of my favorite things is getting to know others and helping them to discover (or re-discover) who they are. Getting to help others realize their potential and overall improve their mental and emotional well-being is something I enjoy doing and consider it such a privilege.
I am an empathetic, strengths-based, client-centered therapist who values meeting people where they are and working collaboratively at a pace that feels supportive and manageable. I have experience working with adults, children, couples, and families addressing concerns such as anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, self-esteem challenges, and relationship difficulties.
My therapeutic style is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I focus on helping clients increase self-awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, build healthier boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic selves. I draw from an integrative approach including CBT/cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT/dialectical behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and IFS/internal family systems-informed work to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals.
I believe meaningful change happens within a safe, respectful, and trusting therapeutic relationship. I value creating a space where clients feel supported in exploring both immediate concerns and deeper emotional patterns, while also developing practical tools they can apply in everyday life.
I am a a culturally competent, trauma-informed therapist who has worked with adults and adolescents in homeless shelters, community resource centers, mental health residential, and intensive outpatient programs. My goal is to offer a supportive environment where you can fully express yourself, gain insight, and take steps toward whatever your goals are. I'm focused on collaborating with you to foster their self determination and agency to support their most authentic and genuine growth and change.

Therapy is my passion! I absolutely love to watch my clients grow and change before my eyes.
Hi, I’m Lois, Mother of 3 amazing boys, business owner and lover of life. I have learned so much through my years of working with clients individually, in groups and with families and couples. What I have learned is that as humans we are resilient! We have been given this life to have joy and life lessons. I have been honored to guide and encourage many clients over the last 20 years. It is my life purpose to help others especially when they cannot see the abundance and joy that is around us. I use many different modalities to guide clients on their journey. One of my main modalities is EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) which are both very effective healing modalities. I'm always excited to learn new techniques and offer a variety of modalities to assist my clients in their healing journey. I also use short-term solution-focused therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness among others to bring about change.

I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where your story is heard and your strengths are honored.

I integrate modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, strengths-based therapy, and trauma-informed care to support meaningful and lasting change. I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and empowered throughout the process. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don’t have to navigate things alone. I look forward to walking alongside you in your journey toward healing and balance.

Something meaningful in your life isn't working — even though on the outside, things look fine. You've tried therapy, you have insight into your patterns, but something still isn't shifting. That's exactly who I work with.
I'm a licensed therapist in Pasadena, California. Before becoming a therapist, I spent most of my adult life as a successful executive in investment management — driven, accomplished, and always moving. What I didn't realize until my 50s was that the constant motion was keeping me from slowing down enough to feel. Therapy changed that profoundly enough that I left my career, went back to school, and became a therapist myself.

Reaching out for help can be a very vulnerable experience, but also a great attribute of strength and resilience. I work with individuals who have experienced trauma in their life. Whether it's from childhood neglect, sexual assault, natural disaster, sudden death or other life circumstances. Trauma often creates patterns and loops that extend into many areas of a person's life, and can be challenging and painful to navigate.

I work to empower clients to understand and alter unhealthy cycles to strengthen and better their lives.

Trauma can hurt long after the painful events are over. It creeps into our relationships and makes it hard to love and trust others. Often, even more painfully, it makes it hard to love and trust ourselves. Often we try to ignore it, avoid it, try to forget it, but the hurt and memories always seem to come back. Maybe you find it hard to trust others, unsure if they are safe. Maybe you notice you are a "people pleaser", worried about making others happy but not happy yourself. If people in your life have hurt you, I want you to know that you are not alone, and healing is possible.
As a trauma therapist, I will help you connect how the story of your past echoes into your present. I will support you in identifying the hangups that get you stuck and help you to get a foothold in your life. As you heal from your past and harmful coping, I will support you with taking control of your life and moving towards the goals you've hoped for.
I have the best job in the world. It's an incredible experience to connect to people, many whom have never been able to safely share about themselves, and help them feel heard, validated, and supported. Starting therapy can be nerve-wracking, but if you are interested, or even curious, I'd be happy to work with you.
