Much of my professional experience has been working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. I enjoy helping each family member find their voice and improve their communication and functioning as a family. I aim to help them to lift their depression and anxiety, communicate better in their relationships, and figure out who they are and what they stand for. In addition to individual and family therapy, we also offer numerous group therapies. I also provide Clinical Supervision to pre-licensed therapists and Associate positions.

When someone is in our corner and believes in us, I believe we are capable of overcoming any obstacle and of fulfilling our desires; we are capable of creating a satisfying life. I try to be that person as a therapist, offering interest, care, concern and compassion. I also challenge my clients to be their best selves. I have learned that each of us has a higher, deeper self that we can draw from. I see my work with you as helping you to connect with this part of yourself. I am down to earth, fully human and present with you as we work together. I offer safety, warmth acceptance and honesty to help you grow.

Do you constantly doubt yourself or feel unseen and misunderstood? Do you feel like everyone is ahead of you and you fit in nowhere? I know firsthand how exhausting it can be to quiet down the inner voice and feel secure in who I am. When you're a part of multiple culture as I am, the voice can be more confusing and insidious. I'm dedicated to understanding the way you see yourself and experience your pain from your culturally unique lens. I specialize in a range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, maternal mental health, racial/cultural issues, and attachment trauma with a special focus on cultural sensitivity.

Most of my clients are seeking to feel better, to accept themselves, to feel empowered, and to truly enjoy their lives. I am licensed in OR and CA. I utilize a holistic approach to healing that addresses people on all levels (body, mind and soul). I offer a safe, non-judgmental environment for you to explore your feelings and develop a stronger relationship with yourself. I have clients ranging from age 12 to 81 including men and women. I invite you to visit my website to find out more about me and my approach to therapy. If you think we might be a good fit I would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have.

Hi, I'm Magda! I am a culturally-sensitive Latina therapist and really love what I do. I am ready to help you work through the underlying stuff that may be holding you back from living the life you dream. Life can sometimes feel hard and overwhelming, but when we practice connecting and investing in ourselves, a world of possibilities naturally opens up. I'm passionate about helping you explore this space on a deeper level to provide a greater understanding about present issues. Together, we can shine a light on a world of possibilities. I work with adolescents, individual adults, couples, and families.

I am an experienced bilingual clinician who works with adolescents, adults, couples and families dealing with a variety of mental health issues. I utilize a number of therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, clinical hypnosis and hypnotically-facilitated psychotherapy. My areas of specialization include addiction, depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, grief/loss, and bipolar disorder. My life experience has given me broad exposure to divorce, blended families, bi-cultural families, midlife career changes, families with special needs members, special needs advocacy, and sports performance.

I provide a safe space for clients to speak openly and honestly, especially those who are not always seen or heard. I enjoy collaborating with my clients to set the path towards progress and growth. My multiple intersectional identities allow me to remain open and curious about each client’s unique background and needs. I have specialized training in college/university-aged individuals, identity exploration and formation, substance use, family of origin distress, work burnout, anxiety, and mood disorders.

If you're struggling with marital/relationship problems, addiction issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or a traumatic experience(s), I'm here to help. I also provide therapy for those having difficulty coping with a crisis, a stressful life transition, or a painful loss due to a break-up, divorce, or death. As a psychologist, I embrace the traditional values of developing a comfortable and trusting relationship with clients. The relationship I build is my priority and the primary means to help you feel better. Together, we'll help you develop greater self-awareness and a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Life is an amazing gift. It brings excitement and adventure but also can be quite frustrating and overwhelming. My approach to therapy is transparent, curious, and compassionate. I specialize in treating eating disorders, anxiety disorders, depression, relational issues, and pre/postnatal maternal mental health. I use a combination of different therapeutic approaches which depends on needs. If you are struggling with an eating disorder/or unhealthy relationship with food or exercise, anxiety, substance abuse, low self-esteem, restricting, binging, purging, and/or other destructive patterns, you have come to the right place.

One of the most important aspects in therapy is for patients to feel heard, respected, and understood. Given that each individual is unique, and no one issue is ever the same among different people, my approach is integrative and tailored to meet the needs of the person, not the "problem". I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgemental environment for patients to learn, grow, explore, challenge, and to live the life they want to be living. I specialize in working with adults - individual, couples, and family - with anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, relationship problems, substance abuse, ADD/ADHD, and LGBTQ issues.

I am deeply committed to helping people create the most fulfilling lives possible, as they move through and beyond challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, work/life balance, grief reactions, as well as relationship and self-esteem issues. When life has thrown you off your path, I work with you to restore your natural capacity for self compassion and healing, and provide unwavering emotional support as you create a thriving life with healthier relationships.

We all face moments of change and transition. Sometimes we need help getting through them. Maybe it came out of nowhere, maybe it’s something you’re anticipating, or maybe, now that you’re in it, things just aren’t going as planned. Everything around you feels different, and you’re struggling to find a sense of balance. Or maybe you’re different, but no one seems to have noticed, and you feel disconnected in your relationships. You may even be wondering how you got here, where you’re going, and who you are. I want to help you feel more grounded and less alone as we seek answers to these questions and make sense of your new reality.

The word "metamorphosis" refers to the process of transformation, a transformation of both mind and spirit that can lead to positive and often dramatic changes in one’s life. Here at metamorphis-therapy, it is my belief that the relationship that develops between client and therapist is the foundation on which all else is built. My genuine empathy and compassion, combined with my intuitive and nurturing approach, create the safe space for us to uncover blockages and heal past wounds or traumas, thus allowing individuals to flourish.

Imagine the freedom of living without constant worry and anxiety. As an Asian American therapist, I offer culturally responsive care addressing intergenerational trauma, stress and depression. Together we'll work towards unlocking your unmet needs, discover purpose and restore balance back into your life. Do you find yourself lost in responsibilities for others; whether its your partner, work, family, church or even your child? This can lead to a loss of self and identity, overwhelm, low self-esteem, and a relentless pursuit of perfection. Hardship and pain can often feel lonely, but you don't have to face these challenges alone.
