Grief counselors and therapists in Redding, CA

Hi there, I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner whose practice is rooted in one foundational belief: every person deserves compassionate, individualized mental health care — regardless of background, circumstance, or the barriers and challenges they've faced along the way.

I focus on the treatment of depression, anxiety, and life's traumas, with a particular dedication to individuals from underserved and marginalized communities who have historically faced systemic barriers to quality mental health care.

All care is grounded in evidence-based practice, blending the most current clinical research with individualized judgment and patient-centered values. As a lifelong learner, I actively pursue continuing education and emerging best practices in psychiatric care — because excellence in medicine requires ongoing growth, humility, and a willingness to be taught by both science and the patients who make this work meaningful.

I welcome patients of all backgrounds and identities, and I am honored to walk alongside each person on their journey toward healing, wholeness, and hope.

In our life, it's natural to encounter deep-seated questions, concerns and sometimes struggle. I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 20 years and specialize in helping clients navigate a variety of issues. This includes, but is not limited to strategies for managing anxiety, reducing rumination, and coping with feelings of being overwhelmed or depressed.

I’m Elba Alvarado, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My work is rooted in the belief that healing begins in relationships — with ourselves, with others, and with the stories we carry. I hold space for people navigating the quiet weight of expectations, the complexity of identity, and the patterns that shape how we show up in the world.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Vanguard University and my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Azusa Pacific University and I have been providing therapy since 2018.

Whatever you are struggling with, you don't have to work through it on your own. The answers are within reach and therapy can provide a meaningful way to heal and connect.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing online telehealth and outdoor therapy, including Walk and Talk therapy. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist and a certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist.

• Complex, single-incident, and developmental trauma

• Anxiety, depression, stress management, and work-life balance

• Grief, loss, and life transitions

• Domestic violence and women’s issues
