Seeking therapy takes courage. As a psychologist with over 20 years experience, I try to make the experience as easy as possible for my clients. It is my goal that you feel comfortable, safe and understood. I want to get to know you, your life experiences and challenges. Together, we take this information and develop a plan for creating the life you want. My clients frequently use therapy to help with problem solving and decision making. I believe my training and depth of experience make me uniquely able to understand the painful struggles my clients face.

Hi, I'm Claudia Calderon at Align Wellness, and offer services in Spanish and English! We all want to live rich meaningful lives. You’ve heard the phrase, “it’s about the journey not the destination.” All people, regardless of race, gender, geography, income, religion, experience moments in their lives when things become tough to handle,when no matter what resources or emotional fortitude we may have we are unable to manage. While some problems are more challenging than others, we all experience times in our lives when we begin to lose hope and doubt that a resolution will emerge.

Hi, I'm Melanie Storrusten, LCSW. My specialties are in guiding you as you work through trauma, shame, and the deeper, more complex issues underlying your symptoms (anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, relationship challenges, etc.). I work in modalities that improve and utilize the mind-body connection to access healing at more subtle, energetic levels. The work I love most is walking alongside brave journeyers who are ready and willing to face both their shadow and their light - both are already present, even if currently hidden. If you are ready for this work of deeper healing, I would be honored to work with you.

My goal in therapy is to facilitate the learning of new coping skills to result in a new way of living and a more satisfying and productive life for my clients.

Together we will work towards growth by identifying the issues involved, establishing goals, and becoming increasingly aware of reoccurring patterns that prevent growth. As awareness of one's fears, perception, desires and strengths increase, we are able to make successful life changes. Self-awareness by becoming more honest with ourselves, can initiate the authenticity that often results in healing, transformation and a fuller life. As individuals exist within cultural contexts which heavily influence all facets of who we are including our world view, relationships, decision making and identity, I strive to utilize cultural sensitivity in my practice.

I am an experienced and empathetic therapist and I believe that individuals have the capacity to understand and change the aspects of their lives that are unsatisfying.

Working through this paves the way for more satisfying relationships and overall contentment in life. I love my work!! My commitment is to provide support, encouragement, and honesty, along with proven strategies to help you find real solutions.

We are all living a story, and like any good narrative, our chronicles are filled with various characters, diverse settings, and twists and turns of the plot. Along the way, we face conflict - with those closest to us, with the workings of the world, and within ourselves. We long for understanding, resolution, and realization of the intention and purpose of our design. The human story can be one of freedom and flourishing, but flourishing is only possible if we are free, and breaking free can be challenging and wearisome on our own.

Do you struggle with compulsive pornography use, sexual infidelity, or out of control sexual behavior?

A sense of well-being, that is the goal that I want to achieve in clients. Combining physical, mental, and emotional well-being becomes a balancing act in today's world.

Addressing issues surrounding these common needs create the atmosphere for personal growth. My desire is to work together to find out where it is that my client wants to go, and discovering how to get there.
