Hello! My name is is Sehaj Grewal and I am so glad you are taking the first steps to healing. Whether you're struggling with overwhelming thoughts, emotions, past trauma, anxiety, or depression, my goal is to help you reconnect with yourself in a meaningful and lasting way. I offer a compassionate space where you can process your emotions, rebuild trust in your body, and foster an authentic life. My approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, which means I prioritize creating a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your experiences without fear or judgment. I believe that our past experiences, especially in relationships, shape how we respond to the world and ourselves. Through the lens of attachment theory, I help you understand how early relationships impact your current patterns, and we work together to heal those relational wounds. Additionally, I integrate a somatic approach to therapy, which focuses on a mind-body connection.

Life can be difficult and, at times, feel overwhelming. When navigating depression, anxiety, or trauma, our perspective can become blurred, making it hard to see a way forward. During these moments, having someone who is nonjudgmental and understanding can make a meaningful difference. I believe we are all capable of growth and everyone deserves a life filled with hope, purpose, and a sense of belonging. It will be a privilege to walk with you through this journey of examining your inner self, breaking generational trauma, overcoming anxiety/depression, and improving your relationships. Please note, I currently only see individuals no couples or families.

As a proud first-generation Latina, I bring both personal and professional insight to the therapy room. I understand the unique challenges that can come with navigating multiple identities, cultural expectations, and the pressure to succeed while carrying the hopes of those who came before us. My passion lies in helping individuals tap into their resilience, heal from past wounds, and grow into the best version of themselves. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, build healthy coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or intergenerational issues, I’m here to walk with you every step of the way. Therapy isn’t about fixing you — it’s about helping you remember who you are and empowering you to live more fully and authentically.

I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT) with 6 years of professional work experience. I earned my Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from California State University, Bakersfield. Over the past few years, I have had the privilege to support individuals who are experiencing symptoms of depression and anxiety, guiding them on their journey of healing and empowerment. I also have experience working with transgender individuals and individuals from the LGBTQ+ community and I am an ally. As an immigrant myself, I enjoy working with individuals from different cultural backgrounds and have an understanding of their experience. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Nice to meet you! My name is Claudia Ceron, LCSW. Im a bilingual therapist (English, Spanish) based in Southern California with 20 years of experience working with children, families and those involved in forensic settings. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, and challenging life events. Getting to the point we realize we need help can be the first hurdle, the next one is to make sure the relationship you have with your therapist is the right fit for you. Nobody knows you better than you, trust your gut and do what feels right for you. Hopefully, that's a journey we can take together.
