Life Transitions
Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
Big life changes can disrupt our sense of stability and identity. Whether you’re adjusting to new parenthood, navigating relationship changes, moving, shifting careers, or entering a new stage of life, transitions can bring unexpected stress, grief, or self-doubt.
Therapy offers space to process what’s changing while strengthening your ability to adapt and move forward. As an LCSW trained in EMDR and certified in Perinatal Mental Health, I help clients work through difficult experiences, release old patterns, and navigate life transitions with greater resilience, clarity, and self-understanding.

Chris 'Bucky' Bateman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Major life transitions ; a new marriage, a career change, the loss of a relationship, becoming a parent, or simply the quiet sense that life needs to look different can shake even the most grounded person. Therapy provides a steady space to process what's changing, clarify what you want, and move forward with more intention and confidence. Transitions are hard. They're also an invitation to grow.

Together, we'll identify your strengths, clarify what matters most to you, and help you embrace this new chapter with greater purpose, balance, and hope.

Even welcome change can unsettle our foundations. Career shifts, relationship changes, an empty nest, retirement, relocation — whatever transition you find yourself in, we will seek God's guidance together, attend to what you are leaving behind, and move forward with clarity and confidence in His purpose for you.

Life Transitions
Alexis Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMHC, LPC
I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my California Licensure (c;) I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present.

El Cajon is a San Diego County city home to one of the largest concentrations of Iraqi Christians (Chaldeans) outside Iraq and one of the most significant Somali and East African refugee communities in California, as well as substantial communities from across the Middle East, making it one of the most culturally distinctive cities in Southern California and creating specific demands for culturally and linguistically competent mental health services. The trauma of displacement, war, and refugee journeys is a central concern in the local mental health landscape, and finding therapists who speak Chaldean Neo-Aramaic, Arabic, or Somali and understand the cultural and religious dimensions of these communities' mental health experiences is essential but consistently challenging. San Diego County Behavioral Health provides public services, and community organizations serve immigrant and refugee populations. Common therapy concerns include refugee trauma and PTSD, acculturative stress, religious and cultural identity in diaspora, family and intergenerational conflict between refugee parents and American-raised children, and the grief of displacement and community loss.
