My name is Gillermina Alvarado and I go by Mina. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Riverside, CA, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I received my Master's from the University of Phoenix and have been practicing for 9 years.
I work with young children, adolescents, young adults, and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief and loss, behavioral challenges, and life changes. My communication style is calm, accommodating, and personable — I want my clients to feel comfortable speaking with me about anything and feeling safe, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment.
Above all, I believe that you are the expert of your own story, and that you have many strengths that will help you overcome what's challenging you. It takes courage to take the first steps toward change, and I'm here to support and empower you in that journey.
Becoming a mother changes everything — your body, your identity, your relationships, your sense of self. But even before motherhood, life has a way of piling on. Maybe you’re a college student juggling everything at once, a working woman with too many open tabs and not enough hours, or a mom running on empty wondering when it became this hard. Whether you’re navigating postpartum anxiety, pregnancy loss, burnout, life transitions, or just that feeling that you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the way — you deserve more than just getting through the day. This space is for you!
As a therapist, it is my passion to support women navigating challenges related to different life stages. I provide a compassionate, safe space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to explore their emotional and physical well being.
I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) who helps people heal from the inside out.
I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults for years, and one thing I’ve learned is that healing happens when we feel seen, safe, and accepted exactly as we are. My style is warm, real, and collaborative. I meet you where you are, and we go from there.
Hey, I'm Kacey and I am passionate about working with people in their 20s and 30s who are looking to build confidence, cope with life transitions, and challenge negative self-talk.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in California. My approach to therapy is client-centered; that is, I want to work on what you want to work on! You are the expert of your own life, and I am here to offer insight to help you meet your goals.

At this time, I would like to work with both youth and adults who are motivated to engage in the therapeutic process.
I’m a first generation Latinx/e, bilingual, and LGBTQ+ affirming therapist creating space for clients to experience radical self-compassion and express themselves fully. I invite clients to discuss, in English, Spanish, or spanglish, how their worldview and relationships are influenced by their culture. I believe radical self-compassion involves affirming all types of identities. I value authenticity, knowing neither clients nor myself, need to be perfect.
I graduated with a master's degree from Chapman University in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2019. Since 2018, I have worked with clients in community mental health and private practice settings. Clients have been a part of the Latinx/e community, young adults in college, and young professionals.
Trauma leaves us feeling broken, unhappy, and disconnected from our true selves. You may be fed up with feeling anxious and overwhelmed in your relationships, feeling hopeless or not good enough. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to rediscover yourself and find out who you are. You’re ready to have freedom from your past trauma. Most of all, you’re ready to experience fulfilling and healthy relationships!
I have been a licensed marriage and family therapiist for over 30 years. I have had many years of experience working with clients in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
