Patricia Alba
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You can’t bring yourself to face your past trauma. You’ve been to countless self-help programs and created a self-care routine, but the past still torments you. Deep down, there’s something you can’t confront, a darkness that won’t relent. You’ve been isolating yourself from your friends and family because you’re afraid you’ve become a burden. You feel alone, tired all the time, and annoyed at yourself for not being “over it.”
Sometimes, we need to look backward in order to move forward. I can be your guide, bringing over 20 years of experience resolving past traumas. Using DBT, IFS, EMDR, Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy and psychodynamic treatments, we will explore why the past is still present for you, and through this exploration, we’ll find a new path forward. Find the path to peace you’ve been searching for. Learn how to build resilience and establish healthy connections with your loved ones. Call today for a free consultation to free yourself from the pain of the past and look forward to a better future.

Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
After 25 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CA, TX & FL. I know conflict is not the problem. Conflict is natural in close relationships. What matters most is HOW couples talk to each other when emotions run high. That’s why I created the research-based Happily Partnered Playbook — to help couples end negative cycles and grow closer.

“I would rather be whole than good.” – Carl Jung
If you’re ready to move beyond performing, pleasing, or simply surviving and step into a more whole, honest version of yourself, I’d be honored to work with you. My approach blends psychodynamic depth, relational therapy, Gestalt awareness, and certified sex therapy to support meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in working with Black and POC adults and couples who want deeper connection, authenticity, and fulfillment. When you’re ready to choose wholeness, I invite you to reach out.
