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

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.

Calming an activated nervous system is one of the most valuable things you can learn for your mental health. It is extremely helpful to manage triggers. It can also be used to retrain your nervous system that it no longer needs to be on high alert. Hi, my name is Cathy and I am grateful to be able to teach you about that as well as help you release energy from past trauma that is triggering you in the present. ImTT, Image Transformation Therapy, along with mindfulness and other somatic and self-care tools help my clients reset their nervous system. This helps you choose to be present in the world in a safe and gentle way. Most of my clients are women in their 40’s and better who are wanting to transform their fear and increase their capacity for more. More love, more joy, more peace, more pleasure. I work with women who have lived with trauma over time; many have also experienced single incident traumatic events. Both experiences can color how you see the world and your experiences with people in it. Reseting your nervous system can help you see your experiences without the past superimposed on it. I also work with professional women with ADHD. It’s not uncommon to have the symptoms of ADHD with a history of trauma. There are a lot of similarities. The tools I work with are extremely effective for ADHD symptoms with trauma history. Does this speak to you? If it does, reach out and schedule a time to meet and see if we are a good match. I am currently taking new clients and would love to work with you.

Do you have a history of attracting relationships where the other person is emotionally unavailable? Have you experienced gaslighting, manipulation, blaming - what's otherwise known as narcissistic abuse? You may feel as though you are all alone and that no one understands the relationship. What's even worse, people may think you are imagining or exaggerating the abuse that you are experiencing because the other person is so charming to everyone else. You have done everything from crying to begging, offering to go to couples counseling, to even taking the blame for the problems that occur in the relationship. You are unsure of what else can be done to salvage the situation, so you have finally decided to take the next step to work on yourself. You have experienced everything from anger, depression, anxiety, crying spells, to questioning your sanity. Something has got to give. While you may feel alone, the reality is that you are not. There are a lot of people who experience narcissistic abuse. Whether you experienced in your family, your intimate relationships, at your job, or with your friends; I can be of help.

Hi I am Kao, I firmly believe that as humans we have an innate desire for growth and balance. Unfortunately, often we physically respond to ingrained negative cues and messages that get stuck in our body. Many times these old cues manifest themselves in our body as anxiety, depression, and other trauma responses. It can feel like we are living life just trying to cope with the loudness of these negative messages. What if instead of just gaining tools to “cope” with these trauma responses, we could eliminate them all together? How might your life look? My hope is that in our work together we will be able to address wounds and move towards healing so that you don’t have to “cope” anymore. Instead you can thrive and have a sense of self-awareness that brings constant peace and clarity.
