With over 20 yrs experience in the mental health field, I believe it shouldn't be so complicated to live outside of the survival-mode loop. Now more than ever, people have been bombarded with a lot of negative and fear-driving events that only add to their individual life stressors. Let's stop the overflow of stress together. I take a "make it make sense approach" and between laughter and even some tears, I enjoy helping my clients create a new path that may have once seemed impossible. From personal to professional thriving, I get exciting seeing you enter uncharted territory that lasts a life-time.

I identify as queer, fat, femme and have a mixture of indigenous and colonizer DNA. I share this first because the way we identify matters. Many reasons and factors stop us from being ourselves around others and often, when we can't fully live who we are, our mental health suffers. If that's you, I'm here to help. We can work through body image issues, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, trauma, conflict management together if you're willing to do the work of honestly engaging in therapy with me. I grew up on the East Coast to immigrant parents from Colombia and lived in SoCal for 15 years and recently moved back home to be near my parents. I have a rescued pitbull that brings me lots of peace and joy and you might see him napping behind me via telehealth sessions. I enjoy hiking, cooking, reading (fiction for fun), and taking care of my indoor plants. I love learning about indigenous wisdom/practices from all over the world, herbalism, tarot, and other healing practices and beliefs that folks use to find meaning and wellness. Last but not least, I really love my job! And I do it because I believe in it and have witnessed many people shift, grow, break patterns and learn new ones that significantly improve quality of life. If you're curious but unsure if I'd be the right fit for you, email me and we can schedule a 15 minute chat (free of charge) where you can get a better idea and ask a few questions to find out if this would be a good option for you. Please keep your email short and only include your interest in scheduling a 15 minute call and 1 or 2 sentences of what you're looking for. My email is: ericaarizalcsw @ gmail.com

Psychotherapy relies heavily on the rapport between therapist and client, without it growth and trust cease to exist. I work towards understanding your needs and wants in a nonjudgmental safe, supportive, and empathetic environment. I believe mental health issues are a symptom of deeper, unresolved emotional issues and childhood wounds. I work with teenagers 13+ and adults. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify irrational thoughts and faulty thinking that are the main culprits behind anxiety and stress. I also utilize psychodynamic therapy to help uncover past issues, such as family dynamics and childhood issues. My full fee is $200 for individuals and $250 for couples, however I do work on a sliding scale as well.

Welcome! I'm Khusbu. I want to take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life.

I started my career as a marriage and family therapist working in residential settings with youth in the foster care and juvenile justice systems. As a child, I experienced trauma when my family had to flee as refugees from a war-torn country. Applying my own history and experiences, I am able to connect with my clients, understand their experiences, and help them deal with their trauma head-on. As a clinician, I try to understand each individual holistically, including their background and the strengths they already possess, to provide an individualized approach.

Hello, and welcome! First, let's acknowledge that taking the first step toward bettering your mental health is both empowering and courageous! I know initiating the process can feel intimidating, but it’s also the start of a transformative journey. While I may be new to Grow, I'm certainly not new to providing therapeutic care. With over 11 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I have helped countless individuals and families from various walks of life over the years. In my private practice, Therapy with Krystal, I focus on supporting millennial women as they navigate tough life transitions, and as they're ready to begin healing from complex trauma. While I prioritize women of color (WOC), I'm open to working with all allied races and genders. Through a holistic approach, I aim to create a safe space where you can cultivate a deeper connection with yourself. Together, we’ll foster growth, healing, and meaningful change by approaching your story with curiosity, compassion, and positive regard. I invite you to show up as your imperfect, unfiltered self—so that, over time, you feel safe expressing your true self in every area of your life. You're the expert on your own journey. My role is to walk alongside you, offering insight, support, and encouragement as you move forward. My goal is to help you establish more balance, peace, and fulfillment in your life- whatever that may look like for you. If you're feeling called to work me, I encourage you to book a session to determine if we would be a good fit.
