My goal is to be your partner in finding the change you desire.

I have completed a MA in Counseling Psychology. I have worked with diverse populations covering many issues. My approach is client focused through active listening skills and empathic support.

I believe meaningful change happens when we work together as equals. My path to becoming a therapist wasn't a straight line; transitioning from the corporate world to clinical care allows me to blend evidence-based theories with practical, real-world application.

Hello! My name is Michelle Garza-Rodriguez, LCSW. If you are reading this, you may be at a point in your life where you are overwhelmed, struggling with past or current difficulties or symptoms, or just need someone to listen. I have close to 20 years of experience in mental health treatment, which has allowed me to meet my clients where they are at, use evidence based practice to diagnose, treat and assist in improving many patients' lives. If you are struggling with anxiety, anger, trauma, mood disorders, or life challenges, don't struggle alone. Set up an appointment and we can begin the process to help you feeling better. If you are in the process of making sure we make a good fit, we can meet for an assessment and discuss your needs. I provide sessions in both English and Spanish. At the end of the day, I want you to feel you have a good match with your therapist. I look forward to meeting with you, and working together on your treatment goals.

Sometimes you don’t need someone to simply ask, “And how does that make you feel?” You need a therapist who can listen, understand the bigger picture, help you connect the dots, and work with you on what to actually do next.

That’s the kind of space I strive to provide.

I work with adults who may look like they’re holding everything together while privately feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, angry, disconnected, grieving, or simply tired of carrying so much. Some of my clients come to therapy because of a specific crisis or life transition. Others arrive saying, “I don’t even know where to start—I just know something needs to change.” Both are perfectly valid places to begin.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My clinical background includes supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and eating disorders. I also have experience incorporating play therapy when working with children and developmentally appropriate interventions for adolescents.

I believe therapy should be individualized rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand your experiences, concerns, strengths, relationships, and goals for treatment. From there, we work collaboratively to develop a treatment plan that feels meaningful and realistic for you.

My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative while also providing structure and guidance when needed. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed interventions, and other therapeutic modalities based on your individual needs. Whether you are working through past experiences, navigating current challenges, strengthening relationships, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, my goal is to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.

Hi, I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience. I provide thoughtful, personalized care for individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other common mental health concerns. My approach is warm, respectful, and judgment-free — I believe real healing starts with feeling heard and understood. I work closely with each client to create a treatment plan that feels supportive, practical, and tailored to their unique needs.

Life can throw a new challenge that we need help from a third perspective. That is why I like helping people to empower themselves with what's needed in order to fill the gap and reduce barriers to next level of success in their treatment goal(s)! Often than not, our environmental or relational dynamic in life is the most difficult matters to change or resolve. My clinical work focus on the important subjects that often trigger and precipitate mood symptoms from those relational and environmental disruptions in life.

My communication style is direct - meaning using open-communication and empowerment to the core issues or reason that you are facing the obstacles in life to help you stabilize your life and mental health as prompt manner as possible. I also practice open-communication style by allowing people to ask questions when you have a question about the therapy process or me as your therapist. I will try to answer the best way I can with respect to healthy therapeutic boundary as applicable.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, or carrying the impact of past experiences, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist (Ph.D.) from UCSB with a postdoctoral fellowship in integrative health from VA West LA- UCLA affiliated. I have experience working in public mental health, large healthcare systems, and the private sector. I’ve worked with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, and major life stressors.

My approach is holistic, trauma-informed and culturally responsive, and I integrate evidence-based practices to help you better understand how your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system interact. Clients often share that they feel both supported and gently challenged in our work together. I aim to meet you with empathy while also helping you move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I am Amina Hosaini. I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have obtained my master’s degree from University of Connecticut with a concentration in group work. I obtained my bachelor’s degree from the Eastern Connecticut State University.

I have been working in private practice for the past 5 years primarily with adults struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma. I have extensive experience in residential, group homes and with adults struggling with addiction and co-occurring disorders. I have experience working with high-risk children who receive special education in a clinical day school. I have worked youth age 3-15 years of age of varying academic levels, learning abilities, and behavioral and emotional issues.

I am trained to utilize specialized de-escalation strategies that ensure the care, welfare, safety of others. I have experience working with adults in the criminal justice system. I have also worked with juvenile delinquent youth providing individual and family therapy. I am trained in evidence-based practices such as Motivational Interviewing (MI), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Attachment, Regulation and Competency (ARC). I am trained in evidence-based group interventions such as Trauma Affect Regulation Guide for Education and Therapy (TARGET), Aggression Replacement Training (ART) and girls empowerment modality called VOICES.

I work primarily with young adults who are feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck — especially when it comes to anxiety and relationship challenges. Many of my clients are used to holding it all together on the outside, but internally feel lost or unsure of how to move forward.

I bring a calm, grounded presence to the work, even in high-stress situations. Much of my background is in working with clients in crisis, which allows me to help you navigate difficult emotions without things feeling out of control. At the same time, I’m warm, relatable, and honest — I’ll meet you where you are, while also gently challenging patterns that may be keeping you stuck when or if needed.

it takes courage to take the first step to search for help and you've done it! I want you to know that at times when we are not feeling our best its ok to reach out for help. Sometimes depression, anxiety, family conflicts, questioning life goals can get on the way of enjoying life and we might need someone to help us through those times.
