Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Let's work through this together.
If you’re feeling worn out, anxious, and disconnected, and your current way of living feels off course, my therapeutic approach can provide the support you need. Much of our distress originates from deeply rooted, uncontrollable negative thoughts about ourselves and the world, embedded during our upbringing. Often, we remain unaware of what keeps us stuck, making it challenging to find a way out.
I've been fortunate to assist numerous individuals whose lives felt unsustainable and unfulfilling, guiding them to uncover their truest, most vibrant selves. This process is not about making minor adjustments; it's about profound transformation. The life you desire is closer than you realize, but the path to it isn’t always clear when traveled alone.
Together, we will explore evidence-based techniques, enriched with the wisdom of philosophy, the tranquility of Buddhism, the strength of Stoicism, the practice of Mindfulness, and the insights of the mind-body connection through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This isn’t just about self-improvement; it’s a deep awakening, liberating you from the negative thoughts and emotions that have held you back."

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 Californian identity, I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present.

Jessi Blank
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Seeking out professional support can feel hard, awkward, and even subtly intimidating. As a therapist, I dedicate my job to make sure all of my clients feel safe in the space that is created between us, allowing them to name and explore the various emotional pains that may have left them feeling stuck, derailed, angry, or even hopefuless. My therapy style is a mixture of soft tenderness that helps my clients feel seen and cared for, intentional questions of curiousity that helps my clients to expand their thinking and meaning making, while also, when appropriate, to subtly challenge any false beliefs or perceptions that may be playing into the role that may be keeping them adrift.

Anna Barrios
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I live in the beautiful Southwest, and I embrace my Hispanic heritage. My best childhood memories are family road trips between Mexico and the USA. I learned at an early age that diversity was something to cherish, and yet I realized that differences can lead to division. With this in mind, I decided to pursue a degree in social work. I chose to focus on mental health in order to be a catalyst for hope and healing in my community. I have worked with nonprofit organizations, schools, and State agencies delivering best-practice mental health services. Currently, I provide tele-health services in three States. I am a bilingual therapist- Spanish. and I specialize in helping adults process childhood trauma due to family substance use, domestic abuse and neglect. The focus is to treat the anxiety, depression, grief, difficulty with relationships, challenges in parenting, and a host of issues that may result from unresolved pain. I believe that healing is a journey we do not have to travel alone.

Glendale has the highest concentration of Armenian Americans of any city outside Armenia, with a community that brings a distinct cultural framework to mental health — including intergenerational trauma from the Armenian Genocide, strong family and community cohesion, and particular patterns of help-seeking that therapists need to understand to provide effective care. The city is also home to a large Iranian, Korean, and Latino population, giving its therapy community a genuinely multilingual and multicultural character. USC Verdugo Hills Hospital and the Glendale Adventist Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community concentrated in the residential hills and Brand Boulevard corridor. Glendale's proximity to the entertainment industry means some therapists also work with creative professionals navigating the psychological pressures of careers in film and television.
