I am a licensed Marriage Family Therapist.

I have worked in the mental health field for about 19 years. I have worked with individuals struggling with mood and anxiety disorders, somatic disorders, trauma issues, stress management, divorce recovery, anger issues, and grief. I worked with couples and families struggling with conflict, communication challenges, child rearing, and relationship issues.

I received my Bachelor of Arts Degree, from Biola University, in Biblical Theology. I received my Master of Arts degree, from Pepperdine University, in Clinical Psychology, and recently a Master of Arts degree, from Dallas Theological Seminary, in Biblical Studies. I believe I brings a great deal of life experience to the therapeutic setting. I had a long career in Law Enforcement, retiring as a Police Manager/Lieutenant.

My main approaches to therapy are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Behavioral Modification Therapy, and Emotional Focused Therapy.

Mendy Rayford

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and create meaningful change. I believe that true growth begins when we feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and practical — I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, build insight, and move toward greater balance and fulfillment.

My clinical style integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Approaches, and Trauma-Informed Care. I also draw from strengths-based and person-centered frameworks to help clients reconnect with their resilience and inner resources. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, or past trauma, we’ll work together to develop strategies that feel authentic and sustainable for you.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University San Marcos and have worked in diverse settings, including community mental health, healthcare, and private practice. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting clients from a wide range of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, and I’m deeply committed to fostering inclusivity, respect, and cultural humility in my work.

Clients often describe me as warm, down-to-earth, and attentive. My goal is to help you feel empowered, supported, and capable of meaningful growth — not only in therapy, but in all areas of your life.
