Donna M Torbico - HEAL & GROW for ACoAs
Counselor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 40 years
FREE INTRO Session - to see if we're a good fit. My main focus is working with ACAs - adults who were raised in an alcoholic / narcissistic family. The long-term goal is to uncover your True Self, develop a Loving Parent voice, heal the Wounded Child, & encourage the Healthy Child to shine.
Together we identify the harsh beliefs you absorbed from your family, school & religion, and work on transforming them into positive do-able ‘rules’ to live by.
EXP: “I know what I know”, “I have a right to my needs”, “”There’s no such thing as perfect”…..
I also provide a safe place for you to experience painful or joyful emotions you weren't allowed to feel growing up. ACA Recovery work is about facing the reality of early damage, and working to overcome the after-effects.
“Trying to flourish in an atmosphere of criticism is like trying to get sober in a bar.”

Nina Marikian
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Life can leave you feeling shaken—betrayal, relational abuse, or divorce can erode trust, shake your sense of self, and make relationships feel unsafe. It’s normal to feel hurt, frustrated, or unsure how to move forward, and you don’t have to navigate this alone.
I also specialize in sex therapy and intimacy work. Whether sexual desire feels distant, connection feels confusing, or intimacy brings anxiety, we can explore what’s getting in the way and work toward sexual confidence, satisfying closeness, and authentic connection.
In a supportive, nonjudgmental space, we’ll address the patterns holding you back, strengthen boundaries, improve communication, and take practical steps toward safer, more fulfilling relationships and intimacy—so you can feel heard, valued, and connected again.

Haley Rupe-Salazar
Marriage and Family Therapist, Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, AMFT
I have had a long-standing passion for psychology, which started in childhood. I have experienced challenges from early age including my parents' divorce, loss of family members and generational trauma coupled with my own journey through mental health, confidence and self-esteem. I have a passion to help people and understand the challenges and uncertainty life brings. I understand how important it is to provide compassion and understanding when processing life challenges. There are times when we believe that our past defines us, labels or that change is not possible. Currently, I work with children, teens, young adults and adults to identify their struggles and hurts and help them find out who they are, where that comes from and replace them with truths.

Michelle Bourgerie
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
When you lose someone, life keeps going and it seems cruel or unreasonable. The texts from friends and loved ones are frequent at first, but then they drop off. It's natural to feel alone even as you paste on a smile and act like everything is fine because you don't want more attention, or frankly, just to keep things "normal." Sometimes you are aware of a silent scream inside of you because it's not okay that your loved one is gone, and you don't know what to do now. Your loss and grief matter and they need to be fully expressed. I am familiar with working with grief and loss, and I am here to guide you through your grief so that you don't get stuck. I know the steps and phases, and I know how to help you express the inexpressible. I've made treating grief the focus of my work, and I'm here for you.
