I first and foremost adapt my style of therapy to meet your needs. We work together to identify what best supports you toward your goals or areas of focus in therapy. Some clients progress through insight and understanding about an issue while others progress through tangible present-moment skills and tools, all of which I can provide support you with. I also feel that Identity (race, gender, sexual orientation, etc) plays an important role about how we experience the world and how the world views us and I incorporate this into therapy. I see therapy as an equal and collaborative effort between us. I offer a broad range of personal experiences and clinical background to therapy. I enjoy working with people of color and I identify strongly with them. I have extensive experience working with couples, mixed race individuals, inter-racial relationships, the LGBTQQI community, and athletes. I believe I have a great feel for supporting you to be comfortable entering into therapy. Finding a balance of acceptance of you and where you are at in your life while also supporting you with the change you want to make. I offer inquisitive questions to inspire critical thought with tangible actions and tools that you can use.

Hello there - my name is Helen, and I'm a board-licensed, poly/ENM-friendly COUPLES/romantic relationships psychotherapist. My primary modality is Transformative Couples Therapy, where I guide couples to deepen their ability to feel, receive, and show love to their partner(s). Please note that due to insurance limitations, I am only able to offer 30 MINUTE FOLLOWUP SESSIONS. Don't worry, we will get a lot done in this time! My work is trauma-informed and grounded in psychodynamic theory training, relational group work, and liberation psychology practice. I am highly skilled in working with depression, anxiety, and stress, which are often variations of emotion dysregulation (fear, anger, sadness, dissociation; even personality disorders and complex PTSD). I am deeply curious and enjoy exploring and adventuring, which is reflected in the the way I work as a therapist. If something is new to all of us, I am committed to learning and growing with you - as a team.

Hi there, I'm Valeriya! I’m a trauma-focused psychotherapist who helps individuals move beyond survival mode and truly transform from within. Using holistic, integrative, and evidence-based approaches (such as EMDR, somatic therapy, DBT, or mindfulness), I guide clients to uncover root patterns, rewire the mind-body connection, and step into lives that genuinely fit who they are. My style is often described as “empathy with a backbone”—supportive yet empowering, so you leave each session with clarity, tools, and real momentum.

I am deeply committed to supporting those who serve our communities, including military personnel, first responders, and their spouses and significant others. I understand the unique challenges and pressures these individuals face, both on the job and in their personal lives, and I provide tailored support to help them overcome trauma, manage stress, and find emotional resilience. As the spouse of a firefighter and having been raised in a military family, I have a unique understanding of the emotional, physical, and psychological toll that post-traumatic stress injury (PTSI), physical injuries, cumulative trauma, and Emergency Responder Exhaustion Syndrome can have on both first responders and their families. These challenges often extend beyond the individual, affecting relationships, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life. This personal insight fuels my dedication to helping emergency responders, their spouses, and their significant others heal and thrive.

I am a 74-year old cisgender white woman who grew up in the midwest. I've entered the field of marriage and family therapy after many other careers. I was drawn to this work through my own personal work with therapists I loved and admired. For me, the process is the very "meat" of life. Seeking to release old stuck patterns, seeking to understand, seeking to become all that we can be! We are born to be connected to others, yet we are taught in many cultures to be fierce individuals. We are born into a gender with expectations for what that means from ourselves and others--and our physical gender may not even match our inner experience! It's no wonder that we struggle to find our way through our biographies. Before becoming a therapist I worked for 25 years as a Waldorf educator. I worked with all ages--Kindergarten through high school. This is a developmental education and an artistic one. I am always informed by our developmental tasks through life, well into our final years. I also enjoy stepping into creative, imaginative when clients are open to it, even if just to think about a problem in a new way. My imagination serves me when I am with someone. I have experienced a great deal of trauma and loss, but my experience is never the same as yours. With your help I can step into your experience through my capacity to imagine.

Life Transitions: When big changes leave you uncertain, I help you reframe anxious thinking, strengthen resilience, and trust yourself as you step forward. Grief: When loss feels unbearable, I provide space to honor your emotions, gently challenge painful thought patterns, and help you find moments of relief without rushing the process. Parenting Challenges: When guilt and stress feel heavy, I help you regulate your nervous system, shift expectations, and respond with patience and connection. Trauma & PTSD: When memories or beliefs keep you stuck, I use trauma-informed, somatic, and CBT approaches to restore safety and self-trust.

*I only work with individuals, no couples, no minors (under 18)* Trained in a range of therapeutic approaches, I am available to help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, relational issues, communication skills, depression, and stress management . As a first generation Eritrean American born and raised in the Bay Area, I struggled with a sense of belonging throughout my adolescence, often straddling the line between multiple identities and insecurities surrounding the idea of not being “American enough" and not being “African enough.” Early on in college, I took a psychology class that helped me further understand the human condition and its applications in my own life. I learned transformative concepts in terms of moods, relationships, and behaviors, prompting me to further pursue the field of psychology. Since then, I have taken it upon myself to get advanced training in various therapeutic approaches, which I believe help clients get the most out of their therapy experience.

I am a caring loving therapist who wants to get to know you and help you feel like your most authentic and healthy self. I love to listen and laugh with my clients. I am a mother and a wife. My goal is to help my clients know that they are not alone, and often just sharing emotions can feel like a big relief. I want to encourage you to seek out the things you love to do and spend time with the people who make you feel most loved and accepted. I want to empower my clients to give and accept the love they deserve. I see all of my clients from California and have lived in Long Beach and Anaheim areas.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you’ve been carrying a lot on your own for a long time. I believe therapy works best when you don’t have to pretend you’re okay or have everything figured out. Together, we create a space where you can show up honestly, make sense of your experiences, and explore meaningful change at a pace that feels grounded and supportive. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to your individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all process.

I am a therapist with over seven years of experience in community mental health, where I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals of all ages, backgrounds, identities, and mental health challenges. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued as they share their stories. Clients often describe me as warm, empathetic, and—when appropriate—a bit sarcastic. I strive to meet people where they are while also helping them recognize their capacity for growth and change. My goal is to support clients in building insight, developing healthier patterns, and moving toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when you’re carrying challenges on your own. You may want support but hesitate out of fear of being misunderstood or judged. Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to hold everything together by yourself. I believe that every person’s story deserves to be heard with care and respect. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where your story is heard and your strengths are honored.
