Greetings! My name is Angelica, and I am grateful to be a part of this team and to assist you with addressing and fulfilling your mental health and treatment needs. I hold a blended educational background (MPH, MSW) which has allowed me to obtain duality of experience in terms of social work and public health as impactful avenues of study and intervention. My background currently leads my approaches to therapeutic interventions with elevated consideration to the interplay between individual, societal, and environmental factors and how these variables affect mental health, access to quality healthcare, and ultimately one's well-being. My current experience stems from both fields and spans clinical settings, hospital settings, substance abuse, and rehab facilities where I have conducted biopsychosocial and psychiatric diagnostic assessments, treatment planning, and both individual and group therapy in these settings. My therapeutic approach consists of collaboration and helping clients feel safe, supported, and above all, for them to feel seen and heard. Conducting a robust assessment, tailoring appropriate interventions, and utilizing respect, tact, and authenticity are at the heart of my values for optimized therapeutic outcomes.

Do you struggle with people-pleasing, anxiety, depression, internalized and/or externalized anger, or managing emotions in general in a healthy manner? Did you experience childhood trauma and feel like you grew up too fast? Were you labeled "different," "the "caretaker," "black sheep," or "troublemaker"? I teach people how to prioritize and honor all parts of themselves, not just the "desirable" ones. We will work through parts people generally dismiss and ignore such as anger, resentment, shame, and disgust, and learn how to embrace them gracefully. I'll teach you the skills to feel more at peace. As your therapist, I will be challenging and direct, yet empathetic and compassionate. I will challenge you through introspective questioning that will lead you to your own answers. I help you take what you've learned and apply it to your own life by giving you things to think about and work on between sessions, along with resources and handouts to remember. I hope you'll witness yourself feeling more empowered, confident, and more at peace with yourself as my other clients have. You will notice your relationships evolve and change, which can be scary! Rest assured, you will be provided with skills to gracefully go through them. Everything you seek is already inside you. All I’m doing is helping you remember.

Whether you are struggling with sadness, finding the energy to do things in life, low self-esteem, anxiety, anger, trauma, unhealthy coping, or even masking your emotions; you are capable and you can heal. I truly believe that most people will do well when they know how to do well. It's hard to ask for help and it's hard to accept the help. We just get stuck in the quick fix, easiest option, or the least emotionally draining route. My style towards therapy is direct, relational, and authentic. I won't sugar coat things or tell you what you "want" to hear, and I hope the same from you. This is about you and for you.

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” M. Angelou Hi, I'm Penny! This quote has been posted in my office for decades, and guides my therapy practice. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over twenty years of experience working with children, youth, and adults. I am passionate about supporting clients recovering from childhood trauma, anxiety, and depression while on their path to wellness. My faith and personal journey with healing drives my desire to serve others. As a survivor, I understand how we feel when we don’t address our traumas, how we isolate ourselves, how our feelings of disconnection can get in the way of feeling fully present. I know with guidance, support and compassion, we can integrate our parts into wholeness again.

You're not your thoughts, feelings or traumatic experiences, you are what you choose to be! You deserve to be free from your trauma! I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), serving in all areas of California. I specialize in supporting adults who are struggling with traumatic experiences. My main focus includes Childhood Abuse Survivors, Sexual Assault Survivors and Culturally Specific Trauma. Trauma can subconsciously have an effect on an individual and prevent him or her from properly treating the issue mentally. However, not all who experience trauma are necessarily traumatized. I am here to assist you in processing trauma in ways that aren't too discomforting. You will learn ways to transform shame and guilt into self compassion by soothing your inner child. Let’s look at your old story with a different perspective and try to discover the cause of your internal struggles and recreate a new story, where you get to choose the ending. I look forward to joining you in your journey!

Hi! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California, passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. I earned my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Loma Linda University, where I deepened my understanding of human emotions and relationships. Over the past three years, I’ve been honored to support adults who are struggling with anxiety and depression, guiding them on a journey toward healing in both the private practice setting and hospital setting. In my practice, I focus on empowering individuals to become the best versions of themselves. Many of the clients I work with feel weighed down by past traumas or overwhelming stressors. I use a compassionate, evidence-based approach to help them identify and challenge the maladaptive beliefs that keep them stuck. By replacing these beliefs with adaptive ones, my clients are able to rebuild their self-esteem, cultivate self-love, and approach life with a renewed sense of purpose and confidence. I understand that seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. Together, we can work to uncover the root causes of the struggles, develop healthier coping strategies, and implement practical tools that foster long-term well-being. Whether it’s learning to manage anxiety, overcoming depression, or simply finding clarity in a difficult situation, I am here to provide guidance and support every step of the way. My ultimate goal is to help clients transform their lives for the better. Through therapy, clients can gain greater insight into themselves, improve their emotional resilience, and build fulfilling relationships—both with themselves and with others. I am committed to walking alongside my clients on their unique journeys toward healing, growth, and happiness. If you’re ready to take that step, I would be honored to support you in achieving the life you deserve.

Feeling safe and comfortable is the most important part of therapy, and I strive to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to help. I take a down-to-earth, real-world approach to therapy because I’ve survived my own struggles, and I know what it’s like to fight for healing.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, or relationship challenges, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your emotions and create lasting change. I have worked in inpatient facilities specializing in substance abuse, mental health, and trauma, providing intensive support to individuals in crisis. In my private practice, I have worked with both survivors and perpetrators of domestic violence, as well as high-profile individuals in Hollywood who require a high level of discretion and specialized care.

Growing up as a first generation Latina, I always knew that I wanted to give back to my community. Working in the mental health field fulfills that for me. I strive to help people connect and improve the relationships that they have with themselves and others. My approach is eclectic; pulling from different modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused therapy and Mindfulness. I want to say that witnessing progress and being part of the mental health journey is what inspires me to do the work but in all honesty it is an honor to be considered to be part of your healing journey, it is not easy work and I am here to provide you with the tools and compassion to overcome challenges. Being a Therapist allows me to dedicate myself to my passion for supporting the community by providing mental health services that address anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, and relationship issues. When problems arise, we often forget about prioritizing ourselves and instead focus on beating ourselves down. Choosing the right therapist to embark on this journey is key to successful therapy. I provide compassion and remain curious to the thoughts, feelings and experiences so the challenges are not overwhelming and you can see light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. This mental health journey is not easy. I can provide you with unconditional acceptance, guidance so you achieve your goals and live your best life.

Hi, my name is Ariane and I am a California-based LCSW. I earned my Masters at the University of Illinois but returned to my home-state to further my career. I provide a safe space for clients to work through their struggles without judgement and guiding clients toward their goals. I meet clients where they are at and work together while providing an outside perspective and psycho-education as needed.

I bring many years of life experience to my work as a therapist: Knowing the pain and difficulties of maintaining a relationship, working on a career path that sometimes frustrates us, experiencing the stuck feeling of anxiety or depression, feeling the loss of a loved one, speaking different languages and understanding cross-cultural issues, wanting more out of life without knowing exactly what that is. I worked in a lot of different fields - along with my work as a psychotherapist.

Whether you’re working to improve a relationship, make a difficult decision, break unhealthy patterns, or face a personal challenge, you deserve support — and change is possible. I help clients identify patterns in their struggles and successes, so they can understand themselves more fully and move forward with greater clarity and strength. My therapeutic approach draws from evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, attachment theory, psychodynamic principles, and strength-based practices. Together, we’ll focus on building self-compassion while working through the areas that feel stuck or painful. In session, I am an active and engaged therapist. I bring warmth and compassion, and I’m also direct when needed — offering honest feedback in the spirit of growth and support. We will co-create a space where you feel safe, respected, and free of judgment — a space to explore, reflect, and begin to ease emotional pain. In addition to English, I speak and write fluently in Farsi. I work exclusively with individual adults.

I am a Somatic Psychotherapist, with a focus on empowering women to claim themselves in life. I focus on a woman’s relationship to herself (or their self) and how they respond to their inner child, inner self or selves, their inner experience, their close relationships, their community and the world. When our collaboration is working, between you and I, we can find the patterns in your life that keep you stuck in ruts outside your awareness. (Grow may report that I take insurances other than Kaiser, but I only work with Kaiser/Kaiser Permanente at this time.)

Do you often feel missed by the people in your life? When you look forward does it sometimes feel impossible to experience something new? As an Authentic Relating Facilitator, Nonviolent Communication Practitioner, and Licensed Therapist, I have a deep desire to attune to you and your world. Together we can illuminate the patterns and roads blocks that you have been experiencing. You need to know where you are to get to where you want to go. We can build a map to get you there. Once we have a map of where we are headed, we will practice the skills needed to get to your desired life. Some of the skills we will use to navigate the terrain are mindfulness, somatic and mind-body practices, written word exploration, feelings and needs awareness, and vision/goals work. Ready to take the journey? Schedule a free consultation to answer any questions you may have. You know the way, and I’d be honored to accompany you.

Hi there, I'm Robin. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help people manage anxiety and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I believe that each person is a unique individual and therefore the style of therapy should be personally matched to be the best fit for the client. I integrate a wide variety of therapeutic interventions and techniques that come from multiple theoretical backgrounds. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hurt, hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!
