I am a dedicated mental health professional who supports children and adults through life’s challenges. I currently provide individual therapy only and do not offer couples counseling. My background in behavioral health and social services, along with hands-on community experience, has shaped my practical, compassionate, and solution-focused approach.
I have worked with individuals involved in the justice system, people living with serious mental illness, children in foster care, and families navigating behavioral or developmental concerns. My experience includes case management, crisis support, employment readiness, behavioral coaching, and coordinating care with medical providers, mental health facilities, and community programs to ensure consistent, long-term support.
I help clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, behavioral challenges in children and teens, parenting and co-parenting concerns, and reintegration after legal involvement. My approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I believe everyone has resilience and the ability to grow with the right support.
My style is warm, honest, and structured. I value accountability while always leading with empathy and respect. I focus on building coping skills, improving communication, setting clear goals, and developing practical strategies that support emotional balance and independence.
Ready to feel more connected, confident, and in control of your life? Whether you’re facing relationship struggles, overwhelming emotions, or challenges around identity, you deserve a space where you feel truly seen and supported.
I’m Rocio Vaca, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 17+ years of experience helping couples, individuals, children, and teens create meaningful, lasting change.
For couples, I help turn conflict and disconnection into stronger communication, deeper friendship, and emotional intimacy.
I provide an affirming, judgment-free space for those exploring identity, preparing to come out, building self-acceptance, or navigating gender-affirming care. Together, we can strengthen resilience and address anxiety, depression, and stress.
I strive to provide a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment for my clients. I am passionate about helping clients find support and tools to navigate life's challenges, release emotional burdens, and reconnect with their own strengths and values. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, understood, respected, and empowered to move forward through life's challenges.
I did my training with adoptees, foster care, and attachment trauma. I specialize in trauma and how early childhood trauma continues to effect us into adulthood. Since becoming a therapist, I have continued my training with trauma and have extensive experience with positive parenting, managing work/life balance, managing life's challenging transitions, managing trauma reminders, and anxiety.
Hello, my name is James. I’m a California-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience providing psychotherapy to youth, adults, and families, to help them feel empowered, engaged, and most of all, accepted in this world.
Some of what you are carrying has never fit neatly into words. I'm Richard, a licensed marriage and family therapist in California and a working artist with a master's degree in fine art. Over twenty years in mental health, across inpatient units, day programs, and skilled nursing, I have sat with teens, adults, and seniors through anxiety, depression, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, family conflict, stress, and the weight of chronic illness. I am patient, open-minded, and inclusive, and when talking stalls I bring in expressive art. You do not need to be an artist for that to help. Come as you are.
You don't have to arrive here put together. Whatever you're carrying right now belongs in this space: anxiety, grief, relationship stress, a shifting sense of who you are, or something you haven't quite found words for yet. I work with adults and older adults navigating the full range of what life brings, with a particular passion for supporting BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities and people who are questioning or deconstructing their faith. My work spans trauma, identity, women's issues, OCD, depression, and the anger or sadness that accumulates when you've been holding too much for too long.
I’m a psychiatrist who practices from a psychodynamic perspective, with attention to emotional depth, meaning, and the ways our histories shape how we experience ourselves and others. My work focuses on understanding symptoms in context — as expressions of what is happening within your mind, your relationships, and our society.
If you're a woman feeling stretched thin by the relationships in your life — a partner, your family, the demands of parenting — you don't have to sort through it alone. I help women navigate relationship stress, anxiety, grief, and the harder seasons of life: losing someone you love, adjusting to a health condition, or facing a change you didn't choose. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Social Work from Azusa Pacific University, and my goal in every session is simple: you leave feeling heard, understood, and a little more capable than when you arrived.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fontana
Searching for family therapists in Fontana starts with finding someone whose training matches what your family is navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. A family therapist is trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, parent-child relationships, conflict patterns, or other areas that connect to your goals.
In a mid-sized city like Fontana, the right fit may depend on both clinical focus and practical details. Some families prefer in-person therapy in Fontana, while others choose virtual sessions to make scheduling easier across school, work, and caregiving needs. Session attendance may also vary by therapist and goal — sometimes the full family joins, and sometimes a parent, child, sibling, or smaller part of the family attends. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how each therapist structures family sessions, communicates with family members, and approaches concerns like marriage counseling, parenting, or behavioral health.
Therapy in Fontana can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists in Fontana who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person availability, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can review therapist profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
