Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parents of tweens and teens rarely call because of one clear problem. They call because something shifted, their kid stopped talking, and the house feels tense in a way it did not last year. I work with tweens and teens between 11 and 18 who are anxious, down on themselves, quick to anger, or struggling with friendships, and I work with their parents at the same time. Before joining Evidence Based Psychological Care I spent a year and a half as a school-based therapist, which means I have watched these patterns play out during the school day and not only in a parent's description of them. In session I am active rather than quiet. We name what sets a teen off, we build skills they will use, and we work on what happens at home. I have appointments after school, in the evening, and on Saturday mornings, and I can usually see a new family within the week.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
If you’re looking for a therapist who can help you strengthen your relationships, reconnect with yourself, and feel more confident in who you are, you’re in the right place. I have specialized training in working with relationship challenges, sex addiction, sexual concerns, trauma, and identity-related stress, and I work with both individuals and couples who want meaningful, lasting change.
I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and support clients in a wide range of relationship styles, including non-monogamous relationships. Offering online therapy allows me to work with clients who might otherwise struggle to find the right fit.
Whether you’re working to improve communication, heal from past experiences, or better understand yourself and your relationships, I’m here to offer a supportive space where real change can happen in your personal life and in your relationships.

Amanda Hagos, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PPSC
Finding a therapist that is the right fit can be hard. I partner with families to support their children and young adults through challenging times. With a focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, and disordered eating, I support you or your family in developing resiliency and thriving. By partnering with families, I believe that we can work together to support your child in overcoming struggles and develop a resiliency that can benefit them the rest of their lives. I am strength-based, trauma informed, anti-racist, ally to LGBTQ+ community and Health at Every Size aligned.
I specialize in working with kids and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression or disordered eating and partner with the family to support the client in reaching their therapeutic goals.

Tandra Froehlich Childress
Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
Every person has the potential and inner knowledge to overcome hardship. It is my passion to help others create connections that facilitate that ability to heal. I provide a safe holding space where people can explore what is blocking them from enjoying their lives to the fullest. Life is going to present challenges, there is no getting around that. What we do now and how we move forward is what matters. I welcome you to come explore your negative beliefs and strengthen new positive adaptive beliefs that allow you to thrive in your daily life.

Karina Baltazar-Durán LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Therapy isn't just what I do, it's my calling. I’m an original Texan but fled to California to live the California dream for 18 years. In California I was trained with the highest standards in marriage and family therapy, skills I would love to share with you. I work with people from vast backgrounds and experiences. Working with children and adolescents was the foundation of my career for a long time. Currently I specialize in Women's Issues, Couples/Families, LGBTQIA and Latino/a/x populations. I believe we never stop growing, learning, or having fun!
