Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Laguna Hills, CA

Some of the hardest moments in life are invisible. The world doesn't always know what to say, how to respond, or awareness something even happened. Perinatal mental health lives in that space: the longing, the loss, the love tangled up with overwhelm. Whatever you are carrying that led you here, know it is real, it matters, and you do not have to navigate it alone.

I'm Salvina, an LPCC specializing in perinatal mental health, with a foundation in early childhood mental health and family counseling. I work with individuals and couples navigating infertility, miscarriage, pregnancy, child loss, the transition into parenthood, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum depression. I'm certified in Motivational Interviewing, trained in Gottman Therapy, and currently completing my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International. I've been practicing full-time for almost four years.

I am a bicultural, 55-year-old and very proud father of two adolescents. In this growing age of isolation and need for sincere, genuine human connection, it has never been more important to regain our sense of control and serenity. The foundation of our work together is based on restoring this basic human need. I believe the answers lie in the path itself, not just in reaching the destination. Together, we will learn to welcome challenges as opportunities.

I specialize in helping children, families, and adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, family stress, and men's mental health.
