There may be times when you wish you had someone who truly listens, deeply and without judgment. Let me be that person for you. I work with adults across California on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, family and relationship strain, stress, and the pressures that come with new motherhood. I also support women, transgender clients, and people navigating cultural and identity questions, in English or in Spanish. Whatever you are facing right now, I am here to help you move toward the next chapter of your life with clarity and confidence. Together, we will honor your unique story and set clear, achievable goals that actually feel within reach.
If you're a woman feeling stretched thin by the relationships in your life — a partner, your family, the demands of parenting — you don't have to sort through it alone. I help women navigate relationship stress, anxiety, grief, and the harder seasons of life: losing someone you love, adjusting to a health condition, or facing a change you didn't choose. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Social Work from Azusa Pacific University, and my goal in every session is simple: you leave feeling heard, understood, and a little more capable than when you arrived.
Asking for help can feel harder when you've spent most of your life being the one who holds things together. I'm Neydi, a bilingual English and Spanish speaking Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. I work with individuals and families navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and substance use. These challenges rarely arrive alone and almost always connect back to our relationships, our families, and the communities we come from. Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and genuinely invested.
I’m a licensed therapist in California with 7 years of professional experience, supporting clients through life’s challenges, including anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, and major life transitions.
Whether you’re navigating change, building confidence, or seeking support, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and strength. Taking the first step can be hard, and I’m proud of you for starting.
Hi, I'm Felicia Ige, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of nursing experience in mental health, public health, acute care, and education.
I hold a Post-Master's Certificate in Psychiatric-Mental Health Nursing from Walden University and a Master's degree in Nursing Education. I specialize in psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and personalized mental health treatment.
Above all, I believe everyone deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.
You've done meaningful therapeutic work and you're ready to go deeper. You're successful in the external markers of your life, but you know there's more—greater depth, connection, and purpose waiting for you. You've addressed foundational trauma, and now you want to explore subtler patterns: how you hold back in intimacy, the meanings you're searching for, the fuller expression of yourself you sense is possible. You may be curious about psychedelic-assisted therapy as a tool for profound insight. You're not dealing with crisis, but are looking for a guide who can support you in moving from survival to fully living in your wholeness.
Go beyond coping and create real, lasting change by transforming the patterns at the root. Less time circling the problem. More time transforming it.
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.
