Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your new therapist. It takes a lot of courage to start something new. I am a licensed Clinical Counselor and credentialed Dance/Movement Therapist who specializes in working with adult children of immigrant families, those who struggle with anxiety, and intergenerational trauma. I look forward to connecting with you!

I am dedicated to helping individuals make meaningful, lasting changes by developing coping skills that fit their unique life experiences. With over 20 years of experience in addiction treatment and mental health services, I bring a grounded, compassionate, and client‐centered approach to therapy. I believe that you know yourself better than anyone else, and my role is to support you in uncovering your strengths, healing from past experiences, and building a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.

My specialties include substance use disorders, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, and co‐occurring mental health challenges. I am committed to helping clients improve their relationships, reduce stress, and strengthen their sense of self‐worth. I focus on the whole person—mind, body, and environment—because growth in one area naturally supports growth in all others.

I genuinely like people, have always love to help ,

Will take my clients through the therapeutic process, with empathy and care for their experience in therapy to be a positive one.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a specialty in maternal mental health — supporting people through pregnancy, the postpartum period, and the emotional transitions that come with becoming a parent. My background in home health, hospice, and hospital-based care has given me a deep appreciation for the whole person, not just the presenting concern. I see clients virtually in the evenings, so getting support that actually fits your life is something I take seriously.

I am currently accepting new clients!

If you’ve lived with anxiety or depression for a long time, it can be easy to wonder whether this is simply as good as life is going to get. I don’t believe it has to be. Even when a problem can’t be completely eliminated, there is often room for greater confidence, connection, enjoyment, and quality of life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than nine years of experience as an LCSW and several additional years working in mental health. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and Master of Social Work from California State University, Bakersfield. My background includes community mental health, crisis work, court-ordered programs, and working with people across the lifespan.

Today, I especially enjoy working with adults from their late 20s through their senior years who are experiencing anxiety, depression, loss, loneliness, life changes, chronic illness, or a reduced quality of life.

Clients often describe me as a safe and comfortable person to talk with. I’m warm, calm, patient, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I listen first. I’ll also be direct when I believe it can help you move forward. I don’t believe therapy should feel like you’re being analyzed, judged, or talked at.

Therapy can involve serious subjects, but every moment doesn’t have to feel heavy or clinical. There’s room for warmth, laughter, and appropriate humor, too. I want therapy to feel like a natural conversation with a purpose—helping you move toward meaningful, lasting change.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. We can start with where you are today and work together toward where you’d like to be.

Hi! I'm Ava, a licensed psychotherapist specializing in self-esteem, depression, and trauma in women. I earned my Bachelor's in Psychology & Education from UCLA and my Master's of Marriage & Family Therapy (clinical psychology) from USC.

Women who find me often describe feeling disconnected from themselves in ways that are hard to explain.

Most are in their 20s, many of whom are Latina, navigating identity shifts and redefining who they are after major life transitions. They may have ambition, potential, and clear goals, yet still feel held back by something invisible. That “something” often goes by many names: depression, low self-worth, insecure attachment, abandonment and rejection wounds, and unresolved relational trauma from childhood.

I earned my Masters in Social Work at Temple University in Philadelphia. I am licensed in NJ and CA.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Long Beach area, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel truly heard. I work with individuals who are ready to make meaningful changes in their lives, and I bring both professional training and genuine care to every session. I believe that the right therapeutic relationship can be transformative, and I'm committed to showing up fully for the people I work with.

Many of the struggles that bring us to therapy—anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, self-doubt, or feeling stuck—have deeper roots than we realize. Sometimes these patterns develop through painful experiences, major life transitions, or family systems that taught us to prioritize others, question ourselves, or adapt in ways that no longer serve us. Therapy offers the opportunity to understand these patterns and create lasting change.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the spouse of a retired Army Veteran, I've spent much of my adult life living in different parts of the country and world, continually building community and connection wherever life led. Those experiences deepened my understanding of resilience, belonging, and the many ways people adapt through change, loss, and transition. I bring that perspective into my work, creating a warm, compassionate, and collaborative space where individuals, couples, and families feel genuinely seen and understood.

Together, we'll work to understand the deeper patterns shaping your life, strengthen your relationships, and help you move toward a more authentic, fulfilling way of living.

I bring 20 years of experience in many areas of therapy including LGBT specializations, drug/alcohol issues specialization, and a client centered approach

You deserve therapy that’s tailored to you. Maybe you've tried therapy before, and it just hasn't clicked—you're not alone, and that's not your fault. Most therapy isn’t designed with men like you in mind. That’s why I specialize in guiding men toward real growth and empowerment.

My name is Joseph Burton, LCSW. I am a trauma-informed and culturally responsive therapist who specializes in supporting individuals living with blindness, low vision, and other disabilities. I understand that adjusting to changes in vision, identity, and independence can bring up complex emotions—grief, anxiety, frustration, or feeling misunderstood or isolated. You deserve a space where your lived experience is honored, and where healing can happen at your pace.

Hi, great to have you here! I know it can feel overwhelming to seek out therapy and find a good fit, and hope we might take that next step together! Many clients have described my personality as warm, not clinical, and intuitive to their emotions.

While I have worked for years with diverse clients, I specialize and work with people-pleasing women who want to increase their confidence, Christians who want to integrate faith + mental health, and individuals who feel the weight of their past impacting who they are today.

What started as an interest in human behavior and Psychology, blossomed into empathy for the human experience and learning what an incredible privilege it is to hear and witness the vulnerability of others. While obtaining my MA in Marital and Family Therapy, I worked in Community Mental Health, primarily serving low-income families. I have gained a wide range of experiences with many diverse populations. Maintaining cultural competence, and open-mindedness to all is crucial to my identity as a therapist. A safe and supportive environment is the foundation of the therapeutic relationship.
