I believe healing happens in the context of safe and supportive relationships. At Hope Restored Counseling, my goal is to walk alongside you with compassion and understanding as you work through life’s challenges. Whether you’re working through relationship struggles, stress, or personal growth, I provide a nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard. My clients often share that they feel encouraged, cared for, and empowered in our work together. I want you to know that you don’t have to do this alone—there is hope, and I’m here to help you restore it.

Therapist

I’m Elba Alvarado, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My work is rooted in the belief that healing begins in relationships — with ourselves, with others, and with the stories we carry. I hold space for people navigating the quiet weight of expectations, the complexity of identity, and the patterns that shape how we show up in the world.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Vanguard University and my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Azusa Pacific University and I have been providing therapy since 2018.

I am super passionate about providing affirming care to neurodivergent people. I received my Masters Degree from the University of Northern Colorado and have been working with neurodivergent adolescents and adults for my entire career. I think therapy should feel relational, and I aim to provide a space where clients feel seen, heard, and respected. Every person is the expert in their life, and I love helping people see their strengths and challenging areas that clients feel stuck in.

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I aim to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and understood. I believe mental health care should be collaborative, practical, and tailored to your unique needs. My approach combines evidence-based treatment with real-life understanding whether that includes therapy, lifestyle changes, or medication management when appropriate. I value honesty, cultural awareness, and meeting you where you are. My goal is to help you feel more stable, confident, and in control of your mental health not just during appointments, but in your everyday life.

Hi, I’m Elisa. I specialize in supporting women of all ages and stages in life, especially mothers and caregivers, through anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and the many emotional shifts that come with motherhood and womanhood. Whether you’re a new mom, returning to work, coping with postpartum changes, grieving a loss, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the many roles you carry, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m deeply passionate about supporting women through the emotional shifts that come with pregnancy, postpartum, identity changes, and the ongoing evolution of motherhood and womanhood.

If it feels like everything is falling apart, your emotions feel heavy or confusing, or you barely recognize yourself anymore, I get it, because I’ve lived it. I work with women who are exhausted from worrying, caregiving, and carrying it all, and who are ready to find steadiness, relief, and a sense of themselves again.

I understand firsthand how these seasons can bring both joy and overwhelm. From early motherhood to balancing career and family, to navigating hormonal and identity changes later in life, therapy can be a place to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself—not who you think you “should” be, but who you are becoming.

**I am bilingual and offer therapy in both Spanish and English
