Trauma-Informed. I specialize in treating adults with unresolved childhood traumas / C-PTSD. I deeply understand how early life experiences shape present-day struggles—I specialize in helping people heal from those roots, not just manage surface-level symptoms.
I am trained in powerful, evidence-based and experiential modalities like EMDR, IFS-informed parts work, Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Safe and Sound Protocol, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. Not one-size-fits-all—I tailor treatment to each individual’s nervous system, attachment patterns, and inner world.
Most importantly, I show up as a therapist: I provide a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where clients can be fully seen, heard, and validated. I understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, and I meet clients with compassion, patience, and respect for their pace.
I am committed to helping clients work through inner emotional conflicts so they can move toward a more stable, fulfilling, and connected life—not just symptom relief, but real, lasting transformation.
If you are navigating the quiet weight of relationship wounds, identity
questions, or emotional patterns that have followed you for years without
fully understanding why, I specialize in exactly this kind of work. I am a
Latina therapist who provides services in Spanish and English, bringing a
culturally affirming lens to every session. I practice in Santa Clarita with
specialized tools including Brainspotting and IFS for deeper healing.
I’m passionate about helping people restore healing, hope, and mental well-being. I’m energetic, down-to-earth, and committed to guiding, supporting, and encouraging you through whatever life has thrown your way. Together, we’ll create a safe space to heal, grow, and move forward with confidence.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have invested in clinical training as a graduate professor for the past 11 years, helping students move through their education into their careers. In addition to serving as an adjunct faculty member for Pepperdine University’s Graduate School of Education and Psychology, I also held the title of Lead Faculty and Faculty Advisor for the University of Phoenix, providing expertise in clinical supervision, assessment, and treatment planning.
I have a wide breadth of professional and personal experience with different age groups and populations, allowing me to easily connect with clients from the first interaction with warmth and compassion. I am highly adaptable in session, with a mix of humor, as well as softness with vulnerable and intimate spaces, in order to find connection and attunement with each client.
I specialize primarily in the treatment of eating disorders, as someone in recovery myself. My overarching goal for my clients is to encourage empowerment and self-compassion through autonomy and accountability. This is especially important in regard to your body and what you allow into your physical and emotional space. My priority for my clients is to nurture you. I want you to find ways to sustainability nourish yourself and those around you.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a PhD and 34 years of experience, offering telehealth therapy to clients in California. I'm most in my element with people who are learning their needs, what's getting in their way and feel ready to meet their challenges. My clients come from all walks of life. I help those who are too hard on themselves to become their own best friend.
Great to meet you! I'm Ryan Carr, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and psychotic disorders. My background includes years of psychiatric nursing in both inpatient and outpatient settings, caring for individuals with a wide range of mental health needs. I believe the best treatment starts with feeling heard, respected, and involved in your care. Together, we'll create a personalized plan focused on helping you feel better and achieve your goals.
I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself, explore what's holding you back, and build the tools to create lasting change.
