Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Your career plays a significant role in your overall well-being, identity, and sense of purpose. When work becomes overwhelming, unfulfilling, or uncertain, it can contribute to stress, anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, and difficulty maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Whether you're considering a career change, navigating workplace conflict, recovering from burnout, or feeling stuck in your professional life, therapy can help you gain clarity and move forward with confidence.
At Holding Space Therapy, together, we'll explore your values, strengths, goals, and the patterns that may be impacting your professional growth and satisfaction. We work to identify barriers such as perfectionism, imposter syndrome, fear of failure, people-pleasing, anxiety, or unresolved experiences that may influence your confidence and decision-making. Using evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, strengths-based interventions, and trauma-informed care, you'll develop practical tools to manage workplace stress, improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, navigate difficult transitions, and make decisions that align with your personal and professional goals.
We have extensive experience supporting professionals in high-stress careers, including first responders, healthcare workers, and individuals in leadership or helping professions who often carry significant emotional demands. Whether you're seeking greater balance, preparing for a new opportunity, or rediscovering purpose in your work, therapy provides a supportive space to explore your options and build a career that aligns with the life you want to create. A fulfilling career isn't just about professional success—it's about creating a life that supports your mental health, values, relationships, and overall well-being.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in Cambodia Town along Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
