New Beginnings Counseling Center (NBCC)
Pre-Licensed Professional
At New Beginnings Counseling Center's (NBCC) Donald J. Willfong Community Counseling Center, we are deeply committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges with compassionate, accessible, and culturally attuned mental health care. For over 50 years, our nonprofit clinic has been a cornerstone of the Santa Barbara community, offering confidential counseling and therapeutic services that empower people to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Our diverse team of masters- and doctoral-level counselors — supported by experienced clinical supervisors — provides evidence-informed therapy in a traineeship setting, helping clients explore life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, compulsive behaviors, substance use challenges, stress, anger management, isolation, and more. We offer individual, couples, family, and group counseling, available both in person and through telehealth to meet the varied needs of our community.
We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of financial means. That’s why we provide one of the most affordable sliding-scale fee structures in the region — many clients pay less than $15 per session — and we never turn anyone away due to inability to pay. Counseling is available in both English and Spanish.
In addition to our clinical services, New Beginnings is dedicated to fostering community well-being through training the next generation of clinicians, integrating trauma-informed practices, and ensuring that our services are responsive, respectful, and strength-based. Our mission is to help individuals not just cope, but truly thrive, by supporting their emotional growth, resilience, and overall wellness.
We warmly welcome you to begin your journey toward healing and self-discovery with us.

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!

Our goal is to meet clients where they are in their journey and empower them to work toward their goals. Personally, I specialize in working with children and teens, helping them navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience. One of the greatest privileges of my work is collaborating with our incredible team of therapists—an inspiring group of compassionate, dedicated, and knowledgeable professionals who are deeply committed to supporting our clients, their families, and the community as a whole.

Abigail (Abi) Zarate Ramsay
Pre-Licensed Professional, Marriage and Family Therapist Trainee, Professional Clinical Counselor Trainee
I became a therapist because I believe that healing happens in relationships where we feel truly seen, heard, and honored in our full complexity. As a first generation Filipino American woman, I know what it is like to navigate the tensions between culture, family expectations, and your own emerging sense of self. I am particularly drawn to working with people who carry a lot quietly: caregivers, chronic illness warriors, neurodivergent folks, and those living with the impact of generational and systemic trauma. I see therapy as a place where you can set down some of that weight, even briefly, and explore who you are beyond survival mode. My approach is person-centered, which means I center your voice, your pace, and your values, and I bring in tools and frameworks that support your goals rather than asking you to fit into a rigid model. My hope is that therapy with me feels like a steady, grounded relationship where you can be honest about the hardest parts, celebrate the small shifts, and practice new ways of relating to yourself and others. I feel honored every time someone allows me into their story, and I hold that trust with great care.
