As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.
As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.
I am a licensed clinical social worker, with over 10 years of experience in working with adolescents and adults with major focus on anxiety and depression. I am determined to help you find a balance in your life where you can learn to prioritize your mental health. Prioritizing yourself can be hard, so congrats for taking that first step.
Throughout my three decades as a therapist, I have discovered that one of the most important skills I have developed is the ability to listen deeply. Along the way, I have gained a broad range of therapeutic tools and approaches, but I have learned that meaningful change begins when people feel truly heard. My mentors are the horse whisperers. I believe they listen with their whole body. They trust the intuitive nature of their horse. I like to think that I use some of this as I work with each client, trusting their intuitive nature. Together we are learning what is present in the room, gaining new insights and feeling more empowered.
Hi, I'm Noel, and I'm glad you're here. I'm a psychologist who works with adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and the stress that comes with major life changes. I've spent 16 years sitting with people through some of the heaviest moments of their lives, and one thing I've learned is this: the people who feel the most overwhelmed are often the ones carrying the most strength they haven't yet had room to use. That's where I come in. I work entirely via telehealth, so you can connect with me from anywhere in California — from the comfort and privacy of your own space.
I work with women of color who are tired of always being the strong one. If you’re carrying old wounds that still feel fresh, stuck in patterns that don’t even feel like yours, or wondering when it’s finally your turn to be cared for; I’m here for that. You won’t have to code-switch with me. Let’s set down the masks you wear just to move through the day.
In this space, you get to be fully seen--the soft parts, the angry parts, the parts you’ve hidden just to keep the peace. All of you is welcome here. Together, we’ll make room for the messy, the painful, and the hopeful parts of your story, at a pace that feels right for you. Healing doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to start with a space where you’re safe to be real.
I’m Antionette Sob, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to empowering individuals to live fuller, more balanced lives. With over a decade of nursing experience and advanced training in mental health, I aim to provide safe, supportive, and compassionate care. I believe that everyone can heal and grow — sometimes we need the right tools and guidance.
Welcome and congratulations on beginning your therapy journey! I'm here to support you as you take steps toward your goals and develop into your best possible self. I hope to create a safe space for you to find relief, healing, and develop meaningful insight to reach your fullest potential.
Hi, I’m Amaris, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes healing happens best in a space where you feel safe, understood, and never judged.
I work with children, teens, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, emotional overwhelm, grief, and major life transitions. Whether your child is having big feelings they don’t know how to manage, you’re feeling stuck in patterns that don’t serve you, or your family is walking through the heartbreak of dementia or loss, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
My style is supportive, down-to-earth, and collaborative. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you, it’s about helping you understand yourself, build practical tools, and feel more confident handling life’s challenges. I blend evidence-based approaches with compassion, creativity, and sometimes even humor, because growth doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time.
Parents appreciate that I help kids build emotional regulation skills in ways that make sense to them, and I make sure caregivers feel supported too. Adults often come to me when anxiety, emotional ups and downs, or grief feel overwhelming. I also have a special place in my heart for working with older adults and families facing Alzheimer’s, dementia, and end-of-life changes.
At the core of my work is this belief:
You are not broken, you’re human, and you’re capable of growth.
If you’re ready for a space where you can show up exactly as you are, we’ll work at your pace, together.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 4 years of experience. I have experience working with clients facing a variety of emotional and life challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, adjustment difficulties, trauma-related concerns, and postpartum disorders. I provide evidence-based psychotherapy that supports emotional wellbeing, healthy coping skills, and personal growth in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment.
My therapeutic approach is integrated and tailored to meet your unique needs. I often draw from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational interviewing.
I believe therapy is most effective when you feel accepted, understood, and empowered. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself while also feeling challenged to grow. I meet clients where they are, recognizing that everyone comes to therapy with unique experiences, strengths, and goals.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Torrance
Searching for therapists in Torrance starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Many people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress at work or home. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to address. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, what sessions may focus on, and whether their background aligns with your preferences.
Torrance has local therapy options, but availability may vary by schedule, neighborhood, and appointment format. Virtual therapy can expand your search beyond offices near Downtown, Seaside, Old Town, or nearby South Bay communities while still keeping care connected to California-licensed therapists. As you narrow your options, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, provides in-person or virtual sessions, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in the first session.
Therapy in Torrance can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can browse therapists in Torrance, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
