Brainspotting
Dr. Deborah Vinall
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LMFT
Trauma can leave you feeling disconnected—from your body, your emotions, and the life you want to live. You may know you’re safe now, yet still feel stuck, reactive, or overwhelmed in ways that don’t make sense. Therapy can be a place where this begins to change.
My work goes beyond talking, supporting your brain and nervous system in processing and releasing traumatic experiences at a deep level. I use EMDR and Brainspotting—powerful, trauma-informed approaches that help access the parts of the brain where trauma is stored—so healing can occur in a way that feels natural and lasting.
Equally important is the therapeutic relationship itself. I offer a compassionate, attuned space where your experience is met with care, respect, and pacing that honors your nervous system. Together, we work toward greater ease, resilience, and a renewed sense of freedom in your life.
If you’re considering trauma therapy and wondering whether I might be the right therapist for you, I invite you to reach out for a phone consultation.

Brainspotting
Hilary Stokes
Therapist, PHD, LCSW
In this life one thing we know for sure is that we can’t go it alone. Compassionate support and a trusted guide on the path can make all the difference. I know it did for me many years ago. My own journey of healing from complex post-traumatic stress disorder has most influenced my practice over the past 25 years. I spent many years trying to talk and analyze my way through trauma. It was only when I found mind body approaches such as brainspotting, somatic therapy and EMDR that I experienced deep healing. My practice is dedicated to sharing the power of holistic approaches to heal, restore and reclaim your life. I am a licensed psychotherapist in the state of California with master’s degrees in both clinical social work and kinesiology specializing in sport psychology and a Ph.D. in transpersonal psychology specializing in Tibetan Buddhism. I am also certified in a number of mind body approaches to healing.

Brainspotting
Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Even with insight and past therapy, you may still feel caught in patterns that leave you depleted—overextending yourself, avoiding conflict, striving to get everything “right,” or feeling disconnected in your relationships and from your own body. At some point, coping strategies that once protected you can begin to feel constricting.
In our work together, we delve into the deeper emotional and relational roots of these patterns. I bring 18 years of direct experience into the room, helping clients cultivate greater clarity, steadiness, confidence, and self-trust so they can move through relationships with more authenticity and assertion. My approach integrates experiential and depth-oriented therapies—including psychodynamic psychotherapy, ISTDP, EMDR, Brainspotting, and EFT—to support meaningful, lasting change at both the emotional, physiological and spiritual levels.
I see this work as especially important in a society that often prizes productivity over presence and autonomy over connection. By questioning dominant cultural narratives and inherited systems of disconnection, therapy can become a space for reclaiming connection, dignity, and care—within ourselves and across differences.
It is a privilege to accompany clients into their most tender and defended places. I trust that through this process, you can cultivate deeper self-understanding, greater inner coherence, and a more grounded sense of safety and belonging—within yourself and in the relationships that matter most.

Roopa Cantu, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I provide individualized therapeutic services to youth and adults. I am loyal, dedicated, caring, compassionate and personable. I have navigated many of the issues you probably have as well and feel comfortable and confident supporting you through them. In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions, and discuss confidentiality, and other guidelines I want to make sure you are aware of as a client. Then we will dive into your needs and how I can support you with them.

Emily Curley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I build my practice on the foundation of respecting client autonomy. I may know therapy, but only you are the expert on you. Respecting the client's right to choose their care and how they best receive support is my highest priority.
