Welcome! I'm Andrea Irvine, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I work with adults struggling with the impacts of a life transition or ADHD and are ready to understand how their nervous system shapes their mood, habits, and coping with day-to-day challenges. Has your life changed in such a way that your happiness, sense of self, or health is now affected? Are you feeling overwhelmed, cycling through feelings of anxiety, depression, or grief? Life changes and challenges can negatively affect our overall well-being, relationships, and work and it's not uncommon to feel stuck, fearful, depleted, or disappointed. Seeking support through therapy can be an important resource and an opportunity for you to make positive, long-term changes in your life. I am committed to providing you with a safe, compassionate and collaborative space where you may bring your whole self and we can focus on the interconnection between your mind and body. Together, we will explore your concerns, identify your needs and goals, and practice skills to support your healing and personal journey to wellness. I bring over 15 years of clinical experience working with adults from various backgrounds and cultures. In addition to therapy, I worked in large hospital systems as part of the medical team and specialized in crisis intervention and support services for patients and their caregivers in the Intensive Care Units. I have a passion for helping others and I'm here to support you. I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) with a concentration in Health from UC Berkeley and a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Alcohol and Drug Studies from Loyola Marymount University. I am an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider with specialized training in ADHD focused care. I am also a Clinical Supervisor for Associate Social Workers.

Welcome! My name is Sheri and I’m glad you’re here. Starting therapy can be a big step, filling you with a sense of hope, nervousness, or something in between. Taking this journey to help yourself feel better in your own skin, or to function better in relationships, is a huge act of self-care. Sometimes our old wounds, that have yet to heal, play an unsuspecting role in our lives today. Other times, we might feel stuck or get anxiety at the thought of certain changes – even those we want to make. I really enjoy working with clients to help them better understand themselves, feel better individually and in relationship and move towards the version of themselves they want to be. You being here means that you’re taking steps in this direction. My door is open when you’re ready to begin. Feel free to schedule a 15 minute phone consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.

I am a born and bred L.A native. Born into a family where there was so much intergenerational patterns that were passed down. As I placed my faith in God and I allowed him to heal me and show me my true identity in him I was able to experience life changing breakthrough. My hope is to help anyone who is seeking to incorporate faith, regardless of where you are in your walk with God (committed or questioning). God met me at my lowest, showed me his love and compassion that truly changed me for the better. I hope to show others how God is the ultimate healer of the mind, body, soul and spirit. Healing is an ongoing process and it takes daily renewing of the mind.

I primarily provide talk therapy, which I find most clients prefer; however, I specialize in and frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which works well in almost all cases. I typically work with clients over the age of 18. I have the most experience and comfort working with those with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and seeking to improve communication skills. I attempt to create a comfortable and open environment for my clients. I don't believe a client should feel as though they are sitting in a 'clinical' or 'stuffy' setting.

For the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside children, teens, young adults, and adults as they navigate life’s many challenges. I use an eclectic approach, which simply means I pull from different types of therapy models depending on what fits each person best. No two people are the same, so together we’ll find tools and approaches that work for your life and goals. Sometimes that looks like building new coping skills, sometimes it’s unpacking trauma, and sometimes it’s just having a space where you can fully be yourself. My goal is to create a safe and collaborative space where clients feel truly heard, seen and understood. Together, we can explore patterns, uncover strengths, and build strategies for lasting change. I believe therapy is not just about addressing struggles, it’s about cultivating growth, resilience, and self-discovery. If you’re ready to take that step, I’d be honored to walk with you on your journey.

Maybe you’ve done a lot of thinking about yourself or your relationships, but still find yourself falling into the same patterns, or feeling stuck in places you can’t quite explain. Maybe you’re tired of overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or trying to hold everything together on your own. I work with individuals and couples who want to understand themselves more deeply, heal what’s keeping them stuck, and feel more connected to themselves and the people they love. My approach is warm, relational, and rooted in attachment. I believe therapy isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about getting curious about the patterns you’ve developed, understanding why certain things feel so difficult, and making sense of the experiences that shaped you. Together, we’ll explore what’s underneath the ways you think, feel, and relate to others, so you can move through your life with more clarity, self-trust, and freedom.

Hi there! Do you ever feel pulled in a million directions? Maybe it's hard to finish tasks, or you're struggling with relationships, work, or your health, and being kind to yourself feels impossible. You're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out by yourself. My goal is to walk alongside you as you face life's challenges, discover your strengths, and move toward real change, healing, and a greater sense of well-being. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist with more than 14 years of experience, and I help people with depression, anxiety, and addiction. I'm speak fluently three languages, English, Farsi, and Pashto. I've traveled across Europe and lived in Asia and South America, and those experiences taught me how much a person's background and life story shape the way they think and feel. I bring that understanding into every session. Clients often describe me as thoughtful, caring, creative, and reliable, with a calm and steady presence. I take a relaxed approach to therapy, and you lead the way. In our first session, we'll start with a quick hello and get to know each other. Then we'll talk about a few of the challenges you're facing. I'll ask open questions and listen closely so I can understand what matters most to you. There is no pressure to have everything figured out. Sometimes it takes a few sessions to understand what is really going on underneath and that's perfectly okay.

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 support individuals across a spectrum of ages and circumstances to understand how to find their footing in their daily lives. I use a unique person-centered behavioral approach that is affirming and includes action steps to access change.

Hello, I am a psychotherapist, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has 30+ years of experience. with children, families, adults, and veterans. Many of my clients have been challenged with OCD, Anxiety , Depression, Grief, Chronic Illness and Bipolar Disorder and addictions. In addition I have worked with children and adults in the autism spectrum (mainly high functioning/previous Asperger's disorder). I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with supportive and psychodynamic techniques to help clients develop a new skill set that can be helpful in their lives. You can experience less anxiety and increased confidence and self esteem. CBT can strengthen your ability to take charge of persistent negative thoughts and reframe their negative perspective taking by substituting a healthier understanding of their life. I implement a strong Cognitive Therapy Approach because research has shown the benefits and success of "CBT" as a framework for treatment planing in threading. I use worksheets, supportive therapy, talking therapy, and book reviews for you to better understand your journey are helpful avenues in counseling. Therapy can be an intimidating thought if you have never experienced and received the benefits of developing skills to work through the issues that are bringing you to therapy. In working together we can find the tools that are helpful to you for successful therapy.

Understand, Reframe, and Navigate Human Behavior. Human behavior is rarely random. The way we communicate, react, withdraw, persuade, accommodate, or push back usually serves a purpose, even when the pattern is creating problems in our lives. I work with people navigating complicated relationship dynamics, particularly when boundaries, persuasion, control, or manipulation have become part of the equation. Sometimes that means recognizing how someone else’s behavior is influencing you. Other times, it means taking an honest look at patterns in your own behavior and understanding what keeps them going. You may have noticed that you’ve already considered change. Maybe you understand what you should do but find yourself responding the same way anyway. Maybe you keep giving in, questioning yourself, or getting pulled into interactions that leave you wondering what just happened. Therapy with me is about looking beneath the behavior rather than reducing it to a label. We’ll examine what drives the pattern, what it accomplishes, and how you can respond more deliberately.

You love your kids, but you’re exhausted from being needed all day. The noise, the mess, and the never-ending to-do list leave you feeling overstimulated. You snap, then lie awake feeling guilty. You may wonder, “Why is this so hard for me?” or miss the version of yourself who had more patience, energy, and time. I’m Yadira Reyes, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a fellow mom with ADHD, and the therapist behind Serene Space Wellness, LCSW Corp. I help moms navigating pregnancy, postpartum depression and anxiety, mom rage, burnout, and ADHD. With over 16 years of clinical experience, I bring warmth, understanding, and practical support to the parts of motherhood that can feel hard to say out loud. Working with me means having space to slow down, sort through conflicting feelings, and talk honestly without worrying about being judged. We will explore what is underneath your feelings of overwhelm, whether that’s anxiety, overstimulation, pressure to do everything, or putting your needs last. Then, we’ll build tools and routines that fit your life. I’ll help you recognize your triggers, calm your body, communicate what you need, and set boundaries that make room for you. If ADHD makes everyday tasks feel harder, we’ll create strategies that work with your brain and feel manageable. You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel steadier, more connected to yourself, and more present with your family with room for your needs, too.
