Depression Therapists in Business District, Irvine, CA

Hi there, Thank you for checking out my profile. First of all, I want to let you I truly admire your courage to seek therapy because I know how hard it is to ask a stranger online for help with personal issues. Also because I was once in your position, I can tell you that it was one of the most life-changing decisions I have made. I was so glad for the help I received. From my personal journey, experiences and training with therapy, my belief for my work with the clients is this; I will never take my client to places that I am not willing to go. That being said, I consider this opportunity to work with you as my honor.

I am a clinical therapist that has been in the field of mental health for many years. I have a specialized knowledge of trauma, depression, and anxiety disorders. Some clients have high levels of anxiety that makes them feel uncomfortable. Or, they have been struggling with certain thinking patterns that are cyclical and come to no resolution. Sometimes, they are struggling with relationship conflicts that keep bringing up things from the past. Examples, such as these are often trauma related. Having a therapist who understands traumas can make the difference.

Hi! My name is Naomi. With over 20 years in the field of psychotherapy, I bring the education, experience, and skills to help you through the issues you're facing. I treat people, not symptoms, by addressing the whole of you with mind and body interventions. After our first conversation, I will tell you if I'm not the best person to help you and suggest a referral if we don't "click". I do not work with any one specific group or symptom and would never want to limit my practice to one specialty so my profile may sound a little different.

I am passionate about helping clients through their journey. Knowledge is transformative in healing past generational traumas and guiding us through our recovery. It is important to develop positive coping skills that will take the place of negative coping strategies that only elicit new problems. I am bicultural and bilingual in Spanish. Coming from immigrant parents, I am sensitive to multicultural issues. I enjoy working with a variety of issues, however, my specialty areas include anxiety, depression, body image, and generational trauma.

We all have a story... a story to tell of where we come from, where we've been, where we are and where we want to be. The reality is that life comes with struggles and sometimes these struggles have a way of catching up with us. So whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, career/academics issues or relationship conflicts and feel stuck, worried, scared, sad, confused, lost or so much more, well then you've stopped at the right place. I am here to support you and help you better understand what you're experiencing by gaining insight, developing self awareness, and gaining healthy skills so you can thrive.

Hi, I'm so glad you are here! I believe that stories have immense power to influence the way we see ourselves, others, and the world. Sometimes the stories we carry with us are uplifting and hopeful. However, far too often the stories we hear in our families and culture relay a message that there is something wrong with us, that we are broken, flawed, or unworthy. I also believe that we each have a Self that is unflawed and enduring, and often what we need most is to reconnect to our Selves through healing practices, deep conversation, and re-authoring our stories in a way that is more authentic to who we are.

As a parent, we know our children better than anyone else. Even so, there are times when behavioral, emotional, and cognitive challenges don’t seem to make sense. You may be noticing these problems interfere with areas such as academic success, relationships, and self-esteem. My goal is to help discover areas of strength and of potential growth by providing psychological assessments for children, adolescents, teens, and adults. I use comprehensive, research-based psychological evaluations with a therapeutic approach and strive to ensure testing concludes with a solid understanding of the issues, process, and next steps.

If you suspect your child may have a learning disability such as Dyslexia, ADHD, difficulty with Executive Functioning, Autism, Anxiety, Depression, or other challenges keeping them from learning in school and reaching their potential, a psychoeducational evaluation can provide you with a great deal of information to help guide what types of supports and/or services they may benefit from. Evaluations can include assessing a person's cognitive abilities, processing skills, academic achievement, social/emotional functioning, and/or adaptive behavior. Counseling services can help build capacity based on those needs.

For the past two years, I have been in the outpatient therapy setting, specializing in the treatment of OCD, Social Anxiety Disorder, Specific Phobias, and Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors. More recently I was trained in the treatment of Depression. Before this, I had six years of experience working within the acute care setting in which I provided clinical intervention for life-threatening illnesses, death/dying, substance abuse, traumatic injuries, suicidality and self-harm, and adjustment issues. My therapeutic style is solution-oriented, outcome-based. I also really emphasize self-compassion.
