The clients in my practice describe my style as warm, thoughtful and creative. I work in a relational style, where I believe in tailoring each course of therapy to the needs of each individual.
I earned a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and a Master of Art Therapy from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
I work most frequently with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, parenting/post-partum, creative blocks and existential issues.
Anxiety and perfectionism have turned your mind into a battleground. Your inner critic nitpicks every interaction, leaving you exhausted by thoughts of “Damnit, why can’t I just be better!” Painful memories get louder, no matter how hard you try to ignore them. Daily invalidations of your Latina, queer, or immigrant identity sting, and you feel isolated as you keep your suffering to yourself. You’ve tried everything: doom scrolling, drinking, and self-help books, but nothing has worked. You're left feeling hopeless and weighed down.
Pregnant or a new mom and find yourself saying, "I need sleep and I can't stop thinking about all this!", "What is something happens?", "No one else can take care of my baby better than I". Does your child or teen struggle with stress and worry? If this is you, you are not alone. Your day does not have to be filled with countless hours of worry or uncertainty. Schedule a consultation today and let's get brighter days ahead! This space if for you!
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real-life understanding. I’m not only a clinician—I’m also someone who has personally experienced anxiety, panic, and grief. I believe deeply in the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility for meaningful change.
Parents often find comfort in learning more about their child’s development while gaining practical tools to support them at home. Children benefit from a safe, engaging play space where they can express themselves and grow.
If you're ready to feel more connected, confident, and supported, I invite you to take the next step. Schedule a consultation today, and let’s begin your journey toward hope and transformation.
Hi! I’m Reina and I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I’m also a Bay Area native, an unapologetic cat lover, a self proclaimed expert of silly reality tv shows, and mom to a sweet, silly little 5 year old.
I work with awesome, fierce women at various stages of motherhood who look like they have it all together on the outside but internally feel like they're consumed with spinning thoughts and worry they're doing it all wrong.
Hello, I'm Mindy. I'm a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 16 years of clinical experience. My path has included military service, community health work in rural Morocco, and care across many settings, from intensive care to hospice. These experiences shape how I show up: with warmth, curiosity, cultural humility, and respect for everyone's story. I treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.
That means taking time to dig into your history, what has worked, what has not, and what you actually want from your care. Whether that is medication management or medication management with therapy, we figure it out together.
I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and life transitions including loss, chronic illness, major life changes, and times when you just cannot name what is wrong yet.
With over 15 years of experience, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and other emotional challenges. My approach is grounded in compassion, mindfulness, and neuroscience, and I am certified in trauma-informed care.
I came to therapy first as a client, hoping to get rid of difficult feelings. Instead, I discovered that healing comes from learning to understand and make space for them. That experience deeply shaped the way I work today.
My style is active, collaborative, and experiential. Rather than only talking about problems, we'll pay attention to what is happening in the present moment—including thoughts, emotions, and body sensations—to create meaningful and lasting change. I believe therapy should help you build a different relationship with yourself, not just gain insight.
I'm passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves, cultivate self-compassion, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling. I also maintain a regular mindfulness practice, which supports the grounded and attentive presence I bring to my work. It is a privilege to accompany clients through the process of healing and growth.
I'm an open minded individual and welcome any topics in treatment
Some seasons of life ask more of you than you ever expected, and somewhere along the way you stopped feeling like yourself. I work with teens, parents, and adults who are moving through anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and the heavy stretches that come with big life transitions. I care deeply about supporting LGBTQIA+ and transgender clients, and families who want to understand and show up for one another a little better. So much of this work is simply remembering that you do not have to carry any of it alone.
I am a Psychologist who is passionate about helping women through life transitions and reproductive challenges, including pregnancy, motherhood, infertility, loss and trauma.
