I help my clients realize their personal goals through a trauma-informed and empathic approach. My expertise is working with people who have experienced a traumatic event and/or are experiencing mental health struggles/issues, helping them uncover obstacles that hinder their ability to reach their fullest potential. My lived experience brought me to help others as I would have loved to be helped: someone to tell me I’m not alone. Life is hard, and traumas become unbearable without someone in your corner to help process what you have been through.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. I strive to bring a calm, non-anxious presence into the room while keeping therapy warm, conversational, and human. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety and panic disorders, OCD, ADHD, relationship concerns, and sexual dysfunctions. I also enjoy working with healthcare professionals and people who tend to overthink or feel like they don’t quite “fit in.” My approach is person-centered at its core, meaning I believe therapy works best when clients feel accepted and supported as they are. I then integrate different therapeutic approaches depending on each client’s needs and goals. I believe effective therapy is both human and clinical — connection matters, but so do practical tools and evidence-based strategies. In working with OCD and anxiety, I often remind clients that growth takes practice and consistency. Healing is possible, but it requires learning how to tolerate discomfort rather than avoid it. For couples, I view the relationship as a team. Therapy can help partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and better understand one another. Faith-based or Christian counseling is also available for clients who would like to incorporate spirituality into therapy.

I’m a Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) who offers a warm, grounded space to slow things down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and create meaningful change. My style is relational and attachment-informed—meaning we pay attention to patterns that show up in relationships, and how earlier experiences may shape the way you cope, connect, or protect yourself today. I’m also strengths-based and practical: we’ll build on what’s already working while using CBT tools to reduce overwhelm, challenge unhelpful thought loops, and practice skills that support steadier mood, boundaries, and healthier relationships. The impact my clients often experience is feeling more emotionally stable and confident in themselves, with a clearer understanding of their triggers and patterns. Over time, many people report improved self-compassion, stronger communication, more secure attachment in relationships, and an increased ability to tolerate difficult emotions without shutting down or spiraling. My goal is for you to leave therapy with both deeper insight and real-life tools so you can feel more connected, empowered, and able to live with authenticity and intention.

I’m a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a warm, direct, practical, and collaborative style. I try to create a space that feels human rather than overly clinical, where clients can be honest, use humor when appropriate, and feel understood without being judged. My work is structured and goal-oriented, but I adapt therapy to the individual rather than expecting every client to fit one approach. I often help clients recognize patterns, understand where they come from, challenge beliefs that are no longer helping them, and translate insight into realistic changes in relationships, work, emotional regulation, and everyday life. My approach integrates CBT, DBT-informed skills, attachment and family-of-origin work, trauma-informed care, strengths-based therapy, motivational interviewing, and practical life-skills interventions. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, substance-use and recovery concerns, relationship difficulties, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, life transitions, emotional regulation, and self-esteem. My background includes telehealth, private practice, outpatient and residential behavioral health settings, working with diverse adults, adolescents, couples, and families. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and particularly value helping clients build self-awareness, confidence, healthier boundaries, stronger communication, and a life that feels more aligned with who they actually are.

Many of my clients have been challenged with OCD, Anxiety , Depression, Grief, Chronic Illness and Bipolar Disorder and addictions.

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.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California with 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life's challenges and transitions. I work primarily with adults navigating relationship stress, communication difficulties, grief in its many forms, burnout, identity development, and the emotional weight of trying to "hold it all together." Many of my clients are asking themselves questions like: Who am I outside of survival mode? How do I show up as my best self? How do I communicate my needs more clearly and create healthier relationships? My goal is to provide a supportive space where clients can better understand themselves, build practical tools for navigating life's challenges, and create meaningful, sustainable changes that align with the person they want to be.

Welcome! ¡Bienvenido! My name is Silvia and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the State of California. My mission is to create a positive, supportive space where you feel truly empowered. Therapy should feel like a meaningful conversation—one that helps you breathe a little easier and feel a little lighter each time we meet. I strive to offer an environment where you feel heard, supported, guided, and safe. Through a humanistic approach, I focus on making our time together feel valuable, collaborative, and deeply meaningful.

Hi, I'm Patricia Scheldrup, LCSW. Welcome to Conscious Counseling, where everyday reality and higher states of consciousness meet. Healing through holistic care: mind, body and spirit. Like the lotus flower, you too have likely survived harsh conditions, only to rise again. I will honor your resiliency, accentuate your strengths and help you build new pathways to calm. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience. I provide teletherapy services to adults throughout California and Texas. I have a broad range of experience, having worked in a variety of settings, including hospitals, foster care agencies and hospices. During my career I have helped individuals facing a multitude of challenges, from anxiety and depression to death and dying. I have also assisted people struggling with various life transitions, family/relationship issues, grief and chronic pain. I enjoy working with people from diverse backgrounds and acknowledge each individual's intricacies and unique life experiences. Diversity is honored, respected and celebrated.

I approach our first session with wanting to know what prompted you to book the session. This is because people usually book a therapy session with an issue in mind, or with a problem to solve. I assure you that if you are motivated to change your mindset and ready to work on yourself, that you will be able to feel more peaceful and calm with just one session, and you will leave knowing that you will be able to solve what is going on. We tend to be harsh and critical of ourselves thinking that will promote change when that only causes us to procrastinate and feel depression and anxiety. To address this I offer you my book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on self-forgiveness- find it on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble, "The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness." I offer you my podcast- "All Things Therapy," which can be found on iTunes and Spotify. It is a mental health and wellness-focused podcast with over 425 episodes related to mental health, fitness, and personal transformation for you to dig into. I intend that the show augments therapy and gives you a resource to look for topics you are facing in the show titles and then listen and apply what is offered and see how that changes things for you.

You’re doing your best to hold everything together—but you’re exhausted. Maybe everyone turns to you, yet your mind won’t shut off. If you're navigating anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, or past trauma, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and create space for the person you are beneath all that pressure.

Hi, I’m Norma Elia Luna, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the therapist behind Sol de Luna Therapy. I provide warm, collaborative, trauma-informed therapy that integrates attachment-focused and somatic perspectives. I believe the patterns we struggle with often make more sense when we understand what they have been trying to protect us from. In our work, we may explore how past experiences, relationships, emotions, and nervous system responses continue to shape the way you experience yourself and the people around you today. My goal is not simply to help you manage symptoms, but to help you understand yourself more deeply, reconnect with your own needs and strengths, and develop new ways of responding that feel more aligned with the life and relationships you want.

I work collaboratively with clients to strengthen their resilience, reconnect with their inner strengths, and cultivate meaningful emotional healing and personal growth. At the heart of my practice is the belief that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, validated, and genuinely understood.
