Hi! My name is Dana Barajas and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Practicing in California. I believe that we are all unique in the challenges that we face- we all come with our own histories, experiences, and life stressors.

Everyone deserves to find inner peace and I believe therapy is a wonderful tool to do so! At this point in time, I am best positioned to serve adults seeking therapy remotely.
