I hold the sacredness of authenticity, humaning alongside other humans. I focus on working with women, particularly women of color, to show up to the brutal, sweaty, and liberating work of tending to your life while challenging oppressive systems that want humans to stay small. Together, we examine trauma and pain with self-compassion, address avoidance, build vocabulary around emotions to expand your knowing, and work together to enrich relational bonds. I would love to hold space for you! I am licensed and available to work with residents of California and Washington.

Sleep problems require specialized treatment. A board-certified sleep psychologist, I help improve insomnia naturally and efficiently for those who struggle to turn off their minds at night, are wide awake at odd hours, or who have sleep anxiety. Many feel unrefreshed and tired all day yet can't drift off at night, or they wake too early each morning. I treat nightmares and upsetting dreams, unusual sleep behaviors, travel concerns like jet lag and sleeping away from home, and difficulties like waking on time for school or work. A significant part of my practice is helping folks reduce reliance on sleep aids and medications.

Finding the right therapist can feel like a vulnerable and overwhelming step. I approach therapy with the belief that change happens through relationship—by feeling heard, understood, and met without judgment. My role is not to tell you how to view your experiences, but to listen closely and create space for reflection, conversation, and new perspectives to emerge.

I offer a warm, honest partnership for anyone who is struggling emotionally. People come in feeling alone in some way: overwhelmed, unfulfilled, blocked creatively or convinced that everyone else in the world is different from them. Or, maybe you are grieving the break-up of a relationship, marriage, or the death of someone close. Feeling alone in your pain is often the worst part.

If you're having difficulty navigating some of your relationships and feel stuck in certain aspects of your life, let's explore what's holding you back . Through a spontaneous and highly interactive therapeutic relationship, you'll discover correlations between your personal history, any traumatic events and your present reality. Combining EMDR, positive psychology and specific strategies to re-direct your neural pathways, I'd like to help you separate what was from what is, and where you'd like to be, so you can stop repeating destructive patterns and become available to live the life you love.

I became a certified hypnotherapist after my bout with stage 3 non-hodgkins lymphoma. I was told I'd never be cancer free and am now coming up on 10 years of remission. I practiced hypnosis and other healing modalities to help me through my cancer journey. I believe in what I do and the power we all hold within ourselves to make the necessary changes in creating a healthier, happier, more fulfilling lifestyle. I enjoy working with clients, empowering them to create a new self-confidence and peace in their lives they might otherwise never see possible.

Throughout my extensive experience in the realms of child welfare, family conflict resolution, and youth development that spans over 10 years, there’s one life lesson that has stuck with me: while no child can grow up twice, everyone–at any stage in their life–has the innate capability to start anew each and every day. Hello, my name is Juan R. Napoles, and I am an associate clinical social worker in Southern California. I specialize in working with individuals going through life transitions, who may be undergoing gender identity issues, as well as relationship issues and are affected by symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Anxiety called. It wants to keep running the show. I told it we’re in therapy now. Let’s be honest, life can feel like trying to juggle flaming swords while riding a unicycle through a fog of self-doubt, worry, and old pain. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like your inner critic deserves a raise, you're not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it all by yourself. Together, we’ll identify the patterns that no longer serve you and work to create new ones that feel more authentic, empowered, and aligned.

Life can present challenges that sometimes feel too difficult to manage alone. If you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, I’m here to walk alongside you and help you reconnect with your strengths and capacity for change. I use an integrative approach that combines top-down strategies (cognitive and behavioral) with bottom-up, body-based methods to support meaningful, lasting change. My practice focuses on creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore challenges and move toward the life you want to live.

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. So why therapy now? What are your hopes and dreams for the future? Problems only survive when they are supported by particular beliefs and principles. This can feel like a relentless need to escape a moment that never ends. Exploring the details and effects of these obstacles will help lead to different outcomes not yet discovered.
