Grief counselors and therapists in La Jolla, CA

Hi there! My name is Gina, and I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. I have 6+ years of experience helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship concerns, helping them build greater self-esteem and discover their authentic sense of self-worth.

I support clients who want to better understand attachment patterns, communication difficulties, and recurring relationship dynamics, as well as individuals coping with chronic illness, pain, disability, cancer-related concerns, and questions of meaning and life purpose.

I’m Michele Ellis, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about helping individuals improve their mental health and overall well-being. With over a decade of experience, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the social, emotional, and psychological challenges people face. My approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs—meeting you exactly where you are in your journey. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, build on your strengths, and create a path toward meaningful, lasting change.

My name is Vester L Bradshaw Jr and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist. As a therapist, I operate under the premise that I am not an expert in someone's life, but gear the session towards self-discovery and walking along side of people to assist with implementing changes and obtaining goals. Also, my treatment philosophies are “Hope empowers individuals to make effective and needed changes in their lives” and “We are not defined by our past, but how we invest in today, lays the foundation for our future.”

I believe therapy works best when it’s grounded in understanding who you are as a whole person. Everyone comes to therapy with their own story, background, and way of communicating, and I take time to really get to know each client as an individual. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable being yourself, sharing openly, and feeling genuinely heard and supported as we work through what brought you to therapy.

I hold a Doctorate in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I’ve been working as a therapist since 2015 and independently licensed since 2018. I primarily work with adults (18+) and support individuals navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, brief grief experiences, life transitions, and women’s issues.
