Hello! My name is Joey Ritkes (he/him) and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I received my Masters from San Jose State University and my PhD from Alliant International University. I primarily support the LGBTQ+ Community, particularly children and adolescents. Although I do work with clients from various backgrounds and identities. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families.

I was born into this calling and continue to choose it from a place of love and passion. I have been walking paths of healing as a licensed marriage and family therapist since 2016, and have been gathering learning and community ever since to formally apply research backed science with intimacy and caring to provide and environment where people want to grow and embrace the changes they’ve wanted to make.

Hi there. My name is Jacquelyn Najera and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. I obtained my Masters from Portland State University in Oregon and have been practicing in Los Angeles, CA for the past four years. I believe in the boundless potential of each and every human being and I feel truly honored to support folks on their journey to healing and fulfillment.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California . I specialize in Early Childhood Trauma, PTSD and LGBTQ issues and have been practicing for 8 years. I help adults to better understand their trauma, develop coping skills to better resolve your activated nervous system, and help to create a better relationship between your self and the past life events that are holding you back.

I approach our first session with wanting to know exactly where you are and what you need today. This is because people usually book a therapy session while in some kind of emotional pain, or with a problem to solve. I assure you that you will feel more peaceful and calm with just one session, and you will leave knowing that you will be able to solve what is going on. We tend to be harsh and critical of ourselves thinking that will promote change when that only causes us to procrastinate and feel depression and anxiety. To address this I offer you my book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on self-forgiveness- just ask me about it if you are interested! I offer you my podcast- All Things Therapy, which can be found everywhere podcasts are streamed. It is a mental health and wellness-focused podcast with over 360 episodes that may address something you are dealing with. I would love to work with you here on Grow, so please schedule.

*Currently not practicing Couples Therapy* Welcome! My name is Alex Andrade-Lozano and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #142659, practicing in Fresno, CA. For the past 7 years I have worked with children and adults in individual, couples, and family therapy. I primarily practice Dialectical Behavior Therapy. One of my greatest takeaways from DBT is that each client has a unique life that they want to be living. As your therapist, I hope to help you discover what that life is and help you make the necessary changes to achieve it.

As a Black trans woman that has had to navigate her own transition, I incorporate lived and professional experience to help folx tap into their own strength and resilience and become improved versions of themselves. Treatment modalities that I use include TFCBT, CBT, EMDR, Solution Focused, Schema Therapy and elements of Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, and Narrative Therapy.

Hi there, I’m Manny. Are you currently searching for a sense of meaning and purpose in your life? Do you find yourself in an existential/spiritual emergency? Are you exploring your personal identity, expression, or sexuality? I help people of all ages increase self-awareness and decrease symptomology by bringing unconscious material into conscious awareness. Trauma combined with an emotional core (experiences of intense fear/guilt/shame) commonly splinters parts of our personality and represses such into the shadow/unconscious realms of our psyche. In response, many of us have adapted and survived by putting on masks in hopes of fitting in and being accepted by the people around us. Mental health concerns eventually arise because deep in our mind/body/soul we yearn for authenticity/individuation. Clients may also experience suicide ideation and/or self-harm because there are parts of themselves that no longer serve them. Together we can explore which aspects of ourselves to let go, in order to make space for something new to enter. I am a Doctoral Candidate from Pacifica Graduate Institute, my studies focused on Depth Psychology with a specialization in Integrative Therapy and Healing Practices. As a Holistic practitioner, I believe that each individual already possesses what is needed for their healing and it is my duty, as a guiding witness, to help the client navigate, process, and integrate such.

Welcome! I am thrilled to connect with you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California, I bring a wealth of experience and compassion to my practice. With a decade of involvement in the mental health field and five years as a practicing therapist, my journey has been dedicated to understanding and supporting individuals who are navigating questions about themselves, their relationships, and their life experiences. Above all, I believe in the transformative power of therapy to foster resilience and inspire positive change. Every individual's journey is unique, and I am committed to helping you navigate yours with empathy, understanding, and respect. I invite you to take the first step towards greater insight and healing. Together, we can explore the complexities of your experiences, illuminate new perspectives, and embark on a path towards a more fulfilling life.

I am an autistic, disabled, queer licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I live in rural Northern California but am available to work virtually with any client living in California. I discovered that am autistic (and that I have ADHD) as an adult. Viewing my life through that lens has had a big impact on how I see myself and the way I relate to the world. I have a special interest in working with autistic and ADHD clients, as well as with people who are exploring those identities. I also have a lot of experience helping people navigate life with the depression and/or anxiety that so often come with being autistic and/or having adhd.

You are here for that sense of belonging & connection, especially when multiple global crises have left communities hopeless, and in a constant state of vigilance. While some anxiety/depression is a normal response to the hyper-violence we are facing as a collective (on screens or in reality), it can feel extremely overwhelming to experience this every day, on top of expectations from work, family, and other relationships. As a child of the Lao Isaan/Southeast Asian diaspora, my passion is working with fellow children of refugee/immigrant diasporas to feel seen + heard + validated through an anti-oppressive framework.

Are you trying to untangle a personal and/or relational challenge where your sexual behavior is a factor? Maybe it is an affair that just got found out and you have been accused of being a sex addict. Perhaps you are struggling with mismatched sexual desire with your partner, so you supplement with porn and masturbation (in secret)! Maybe your goal is to solve the dilemma of how to come out as gay, lesbian or some other important identity in the LGBTQ+ rainbow? Is religious shame and guilt making you feel horrible for what are actually normal sexual interests and desires? Is past trauma impacting your sexual health?

25 years as a clinical social worker has taught me that finding the right therapist is like trying on a pair of shoes. It has to be the right fit for you to start the journey of self-exploration.

I have the most experience working with anxiety disorders, self-confidence issues, and challenges around gender and sexuality. I use a very humanistic approach in my practice, and I am human with you in the room. You do not need to feel talked down to or be told what to do in therapy.

You will be encouraged to use your own strengths to push through the hurdles and you can expect warmth from me throughout this process.

Anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, lasting effects of past trauma, and other sources of upset and stress can be challenging to handle. Left unaddressed, these issues can overwhelm our coping skills. Choosing therapy is a self-honoring step in support of relief, healing, and reaching important life goals. Therapy often includes working together to identify and change habits, thoughts, actions, and relationship patterns that are holding you back from making progress in your life. In addition, we may find that current issues trace back to old wounds that need to be processed and healed in service to greater freedom in the here and now. Through therapy, clients often reconnect to themselves, who and what they love, and regain a sense of purposeful direction. I work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Mindfulness Techniques, as well as many other relevant and helpful tools to assist you in reaching your goals. I am a strong believer in tools and offer as many helpful tools and practices as I can to benefit you.
