Hi, I’m Desiree, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who appear capable on the outside but internally struggle with chronic self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing. Many of my clients worry they are “too much” or not good enough, even while managing a lot in their lives.
In therapy, we focus on understanding these patterns and where they come from, while building self-trust, stronger boundaries, and more confidence in your decisions. My approach is relational and person-centered, and I see people as whole humans, not diagnoses.
Clients often share that they feel comfortable opening up with me quickly and that they feel genuinely heard. I believe that kind of connection is a key part of meaningful change.

I tailor treatment to your specific goals and experiences, and I honor the courage it takes to begin therapy and invest in your own well‑being. I look forward to working with you to meet your goals.
Does this sound like you?
On the outside, you appear capable, driven, and responsible—the person who consistently meets every expectation. But internally, you may feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or weighed down by past experiences. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, these challenges can leave you feeling stuck and questioning your sense of balance.
I work with teens and adults who are ready to look beneath the surface. Together, we work to better understand your experiences, heal from the past, and develop practical ways to cope so you can feel more grounded and aligned with the life you want to create.
Struggling to "fix the issue" on your own isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a sign that you’re human. I believe therapy should feel real, collaborative, and deeply grounded. In our sessions, you will find a steady, down-to-earth space where we work side by side to help you move forward with renewed confidence.

Our work is practical and action-oriented; we'll identify tangible coping skills you can apply to your daily life, while working to shift negative self-talk into a more supportive mindset. I believe the best work happens in an environment of trust, which is why I always welcome feedback and invite a spirit of shared accountability in our sessions.
I have been in the helping professions since 2005 and as a licensed therapist for 16 years. I’ve worked with a variety of clients of different cultures throughout.

I got my Master of Social Work at University of Southern California.

The one thing all my clients have in common is the opportunity to be truly seen and heard. Sometimes that is with quiet compassion and sometimes it's by having me cheer them on as they move toward their goals.
As a clinician, I am dedicated to achieving results for my clients. I believe my clients can find their best solutions, and my job is to help them navigate towards these goals. I take a collaborative approach, working together with my clients to explore and distinguish difficult emotions and their underlying story.

Hello, my name is Ruby Sanchez, and I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe life is made up of lessons—both good and difficult—and at times those lessons can feel overwhelming, confusing, and exhausting to navigate alone. Healing is a journey, and I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, build insight, and move toward meaningful change.
I came into this work not only through professional training, but through what I witnessed growing up in the people around me. I saw women in my life navigating major life transitions, including menopause, often carrying emotional and identity changes that were rarely spoken about openly. Those experiences led me to focus my academic work on menopause, and today I support women through menopause and post-menopausal transitions while also working with adults facing anxiety, stress, and other significant life changes. I also bring awareness to the pressures many men carry in silence, and I strive to create a space where all clients can feel supported, understood, and equipped to move forward with greater clarity and resilience.

I'm Jaclyn, an individual and parenting support therapist in Southern California. I love working with parents trying their best to do it all. I have 18 years experience working with neurodivergent populations (primarily Autism and ADHD), not in behavior training but in gaining self-understanding and in helping them to determine and work toward their own goals for themselves (not simply society's goals for them). As a therapist, infertility/donor IVF warrior, and adoptive mom I also bring personal and professional experience into supporting people as they figure out their path to parenthood and later process the journey they've made.
