Do you find yourself feeling fine one moment and suddenly you're overwhelmed by distressing thoughts or confusing emotions? Do you feel like your body has been hijacked by sensations that you can't identify or pinpoint? Do you find yourself disconnected from your life and those things you once enjoyed doing? Have you ever experienced or seen something in the past that now invades your life on a daily basis? Have you ever just wanted to hide away from everything? I know that feeling and I'm telling you right now, you're not alone.

ONLINE THERAPY is available to California Residents! It's not everyday that you muster the courage to reach out and try a new therapist or perhaps therapy for the very first time. Maybe you are hoping to move past old stories or challenge things that feel like they're holding you back? My clients teach me about their own life experiences in a safe, caring environment. I collaborate to help them rewrite empowered stories for the present and the future. All of my training includes a sensitivity to social justice. I have a curiosity and creative strength that's been helpful to people in discovering new ways of being in the world.

To promote the healing of trauma, I provide client-centered, compassionate care built on a relationship that allows you to be seen and heard. The past can not be changed, but together, we can work to reclaim our body, mind, and future. I work from a trauma-informed lens, and my mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment for healing and discovery. Symptoms of trauma can show up as anxiety, depression, codependency, lack of self-worth, shame, relationship issues, and destructive behavior. Adverse childhood experiences may contribute to the intensity of these symptoms and lead to a disconnection with your authentic self.

My goal in treatment is to provide tools and help guide people into healing from any wounds that may hinder them from fully walking in the freedom. I am committed to helping people obtain a healthy thought life and lifestyle by being renewed in the mind, becoming transformed and being set free on all levels so they may further pursue life goals and maintain healthy relationships without the hindrance of emotional burdens from the past. I am a born again Christian and I love integrating faith and spirituality in the emotional healing process.

The healing process and journey towards an integrated self begins within the structure of a safe and trusting relationship with your therapist. I provide a non-judgmental therapeutic environment in order to facilitate your self-exploration and help you return to vitality. I have experience working with children, adolescents and adults, with a focus on emotional distress, anxiety, depression, adjusting to life transitions (i.e. divorce, new baby), trauma and substance abuse. I utilize a pragmatic yet holistic approach which integrates empathy, psychodynamic theory, mindfulness as well cognitive behavioral therapy to promote change towards wholeness and authenticity.

Unresolved traumas can cause addiction and relationship issues. Learn how to take the control back, how to get your life back, and how to enjoy life again.

We live in a world of countless binaries, expectations, and assumptions about our lives, and escaping them in order to come into our own can be an incredibly difficult process. Perhaps you are here because you are struggling with obstacles in your life, or feel lost and unsure of what's next for you. Perhaps you are struggling with your identity or your personal relationships. Whatever the reason, you have already begun the process of seeking help and that means a great deal.

I am interested in your journey - where you have been and hope to go, what you have done and dream of doing, and who you are and have yet to become. Many of my clients are young adults, creatives, people in the helping profession, entrepreneurs, couples, Asian Americans + people of color, and mothers. Common issues include: relationship issues with loved ones, family of origin issues, dissatisfaction with current life/direction, depression, anxi, postpartum difficulties, life transitions, and trauma. You may find yourself stuck in your life, possibly isolated or feeling alone. You don't have to go through this experience alone.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Hypnotherapist who truly enjoy helping people live their lives to their full potential. I see challenges in life as opportunities for growth, and invitation to better ourselves. I have a masters degree in clinical psychology and working in the mental health field for over a decade helping clients achieve successful results.

Our walk as a human being can be both challenging and beautiful. Sometimes we want to prolong the status quo and sometimes we want to let go of that which no longer serves. Sometimes we resist feeling loss and grief, yet want to learn how to experience beginnings and endings simply as a part of our journey. Often we become distracted and find ourselves singularly focused only on what we feel is "wrong." Perhaps we are seeking a return to the center of our own being, to the expansiveness of our heart and to a place of self-authority in our life.

My style is loving, non-judgmental, and creative. My role is to help empower you to change. I do this by uncovering unconscious mechanisms that drive your current issues. Unconscious material comes into focus by our discussing your past relationships and life events. You will take an active role in therapy by looking inward. As your therapist I will assist you by promoting honesty, self-compassion, and self-acceptance in order for you to connect with your authentic self to come into your natural state of well-being.

Hello, welcome and congratulations for seeking therapy. Let's begin by dispelling a myth. The notion that therapy is for the weak and broken couldn't be more untrue. Therapy is for the brave and intrepid. Therapy is for those who are unwilling to accept how things are and want to take courageous steps towards their preferred ways of being. Whether your dissatisfaction lies in the patterns that you can't seem to break free of, the relationships that are most important to you, or the daunting challenges posed by depression, anxiety, or any other of life's difficulties, the fact that you demand something different is deeply admirable.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with stressful life transitions, anxiety, feelings of inadequacy, emotional connection, intimacy and sexual issues. I help clients identify and change the unhealthy cycles that may be creating feelings of being stuck. With respect, sensitivity, and expertise I will help you improve your relationships, create more meaningful connections and improve your life.

I take great pride in promoting the healing journey of my clients: partners (married/dating/poly + BDSM/kink friendly), individuals (I am anti-racist + LGBTQI+ ally), and families/friends/groups/co-workers. I collaborate with clients of all backgrounds and lifestyles in both English and Spanish. Having grown up in Argentina and worked in higher education and the entertainment industry, I am sensitive to the overwhelming impact that adverse life experiences, toxic environments, lack of appreciation/support, and daily stress can have on an individual's self-worth. (About me: ENFP Myers-Briggs, 2 cats, and influenced by Esther Perel)

I have a passion for seeing my clients have a transformational experience, evolving toward becoming more self realized persons. Let's talk about your difficulties, fears, or sadness. Let's understand your anxiety or anger. And let's do it in a warm and safe space where we will set judgment aside. We'll explore how you became who you are today, and perhaps along the way you'll discover a kinder view of yourself, capable of moving away from bitterness or anger, unleashing your creativity, and ultimately knowing yourself through your profound relationships with others.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is basically David Rose meets early-00’s Britney (with a dash of Drag Race & a pinch of recycled WeHo go-go boy,) you’ve clicked on the right profile. But please don’t let my humor undercut the reverence & respect I have for the therapeutic process. Self-empowerment, radical acceptance & authentic human connection will be the cornerstone of our work. I utilize strength-based, affirmative & neuroscientific theory to guide us...but healing doesn't happen via theory. It lies in you -- your hopes, hardships, successes & infinite wisdom. Sometimes we'll laugh. Often, we'll cry. But either way...

Exploring your life in partnership with a dedicated therapist can be a remarkable gift to yourself. I can help you gain insight into unhelpful patterns and difficulties in your life, and support you in realizing your hopes and goals. I view symptoms not merely as problems that need to be “fixed”; instead I seek to help you uncover their deeper causes. Problems then become opportunities for renewal and positive change. I believe a trusting therapeutic relationship is at the foundation of a successful therapeutic outcome. My goal is to provide a safe and collaborative environment in which lasting change and healing become possible.

Our goal is to provide a safe place for all who may be experiencing challenges due to trauma, family, work, or life. At Healing Counseling Center, Inc we strive to promote wholeness by healing one person or family at a time by developing inner strength through self-expression.
