Daicy Magallon

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 26 mi away • Colton, CA


I am a Latinx therapist who specializes in trauma and the healing journey that follows. My approach is grounded in both professionalism and personal experience. Having done my own therapy work, I understand the courage it takes to face painful experiences, navigate life's challenges, and commit to personal growth.

I recognize that healing is not always a linear process. Growth often involves discomfort, vulnerability, and persistence. Because of this, I strive to create a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful change.

Whether you are processing trauma, navigating life transitions, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, authenticity, and respect for your unique experiences.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Menifee, CA

Searching for therapists in Menifee starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. If you are considering marriage counseling in Menifee, CA, look for a therapist with experience supporting couples, such as a licensed marriage and family therapist or someone trained in couples therapy approaches. Reading therapist bios can help you see which concerns they list, how they describe their style, and what you can expect in a first session.

Menifee is a smaller city, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of Riverside County. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while keeping care tied to your schedule, location, and preferences. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and whether they are accepting new patients. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their communication style and whether their approach feels like a practical fit before you book.

Therapy in Menifee can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare options based on specialty, availability, and session format. You can browse therapists, review bios, 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.
