Hispanic and Latino Therapists in Newbury Park, CA

We understand that becoming a new parent, whether a mom or a dad, can bring about a range of emotions and challenges, including the prominence of anxiety during pregnancy or postpartum. It's important to recognize that mental health is crucial for new moms and dads, and seeking support is a brave and necessary step toward finding balance and regaining confidence. Parenthood is a transformative experience that sometimes leaves you feeling disconnected from your pre-parenting self.

I work with adults over 18 years old. I help with finding ways of coping with, navigating and finding solutions to many of life's difficult situations that arise during the course of adulthood and may cause overwhelming feelings of insecurity, depression and anxiety. I can help with improving self esteem, confidence, and overcoming depression, anxiety and stress. I can help with issues that arise from old or newer difficulties related but not limited to family, romantic, work, college, career and parenting issues. My goal is to help my clients find the solutions or coping mechanism that works for them.

We will focus on your strengths and your current ways of coping and use that as a foundation to build upon and create an action plan. It is normal to experience those emotional ups and downs. It is my hope to have the opportunity to help you in this process in learning to manage and reduce those symptoms so that you feel more resilient and prepared to handle whatever stressors come your way.

My name is Tanya Ridaura and I am a bilingual Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with experience working alongside individuals who suffer from anxiety and depression so that together we can work on an approach that is tailored to each individual’s needs. The majority of my work is with adults who suffer from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, interpersonal challenges, attachment, life transitions, anger management, stress, trauma, and adoption issues. I believe clients are capable of making changes to gain control of their lives with guidance, support, empowerment, and faith.

My clinical practice is focused on meeting you where you are at, respecting boundaries and encouraging you to explore your past while building hope for your future. Having worked with diverse populations with varying emotional needs, I understand that building trust, providing safety, and being open is imperative to promoting change.

Psychotherapy is a learning process in which you come to better understand yourself and your relationships so you could promote change in the areas you would like to improve. As a therapist, my role is to help you explore destructive patterns and develop more positive ones in order to address life issues and transform daily experiences. Life is a journey, I meet people where they are at and work collaboratively to create a road map to make life more rewarding.

Some are burdened with a sense of disconnection from others. Many come to believe that they are isolated without hope. Joining the tapestry of humanity, learning about the beloved, and understanding the language of relationships are some of the benefits of insight oriented psychotherapy. Often depression, anxiety and fears, loneliness and even psychosis begin with isolation.This isolation is made intolerable by disappointments and trauma. Self-knowledge is the beginning of healing. From self knowledge comes self-control, humility, and a sense of purpose. The staff at New Dawn Psychology Center strives to help you overcome life's trials and tribulations.

Everyone is different, and therefore, requires a therapist who is tailored to their individual needs. I am dedicated in helping you through challenges you may be experiencing, whether this is something new for you, or has been attached to you for some time. My down to earth personality will help you feel comfortable and generate a dialogue that will bring you through life's difficulties. As a licensed therapist, I will aid in identifying challenges, and provide feedback to work towards positive change, thus enabling you to find inner strength and peace in your life.
