Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
I love working with women, especially women of color. When working with women, I try to understand both the client's unique experience and the greater societal factors that often impact a woman's mental health. I work with women struggling with many issues including anxiety and depression, parenting, codependency, body image, sexual abuse, and relationship violence. I also work with many high-achieving, successful women who are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, perfectionism, shame, and relationship issues.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Women's mental health encompasses a uniquely complex set of experiences — shaped by biology, relationships, identity, cultural expectations, and the relentless pressure to manage everything without showing the strain. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I work with women navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, reproductive mental health, postpartum depression, infertility, perimenopause, relationship issues, trauma, and the particular challenges of being a woman in high-demand personal and professional roles. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I help women build genuine resilience, reclaim their sense of self, and live with greater clarity and intention. Telehealth therapy for women available across 40+ states.

Women's Issues
Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Women often carry multiple roles and responsibilities, balancing careers, relationships, caregiving, family expectations, and personal goals while trying to care for everyone around them. Over time, these demands can lead to anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and feeling disconnected from yourself. You may find yourself putting your own needs last, struggling with boundaries, or wondering why you feel overwhelmed despite doing everything you can.
At Holding Space Therapy, we provide a compassionate, supportive space where women can openly explore the challenges they're facing without judgment. Whether you're navigating life transitions, relationship concerns, motherhood, infertility, pregnancy or postpartum adjustment, grief, trauma, workplace stress, or questions surrounding identity and self-worth, therapy is tailored to your unique experiences and goals. Using evidence-based approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, we'll work together to process difficult experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, develop healthy boundaries, reduce anxiety, and build greater confidence and resilience. If past trauma or unhealthy relationship patterns continue to influence your present, therapy can help you heal those underlying wounds while creating new ways of responding to life's challenges.
Our approach is collaborative and culturally responsive, recognizing that every woman's experiences are shaped by her personal history, relationships, culture, values, and identities. We strive to create an affirming environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to make choices that align with your authentic self. You deserve support just as much as the people you care for. Therapy offers an opportunity to reconnect with your strengths, prioritize your well-being, and create a life that reflects your values, needs, and goals. Healing is possible, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.

Huntington Beach — 'Surf City USA' — cultivates a strong outdoor and athletic identity that creates particular mental health dynamics around body image, performance anxiety, and the psychological costs of a lifestyle culture that prizes youth and physical capability. The city's predominantly White, affluent coastal character contrasts with pockets of economic precarity and a substance use landscape connected to its beach culture and proximity to the broader Orange County recovery community. Hoag Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Huntington Beach and the surrounding South Orange County coastal corridor. The city's proximity to both Los Angeles and the Orange County recovery ecosystem means therapists here frequently work at the intersection of addiction, identity, and the particular stresses of competitive coastal California life.
