I am a mother, a healer, an ally, a CrossFitter, Jewish-American, CIS-gendered, queer woman.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hi, my name is Monica Huston. I feel genuinely driven to help individuals, couples, and families work through the challenges that can feel overwhelming or hard to make sense of on your own.
My approach to therapy is thoughtful and grounded in understanding what’s beneath the surface. I pay close attention to patterns, relationships, and the ways past experiences continue to shape the present. I aim to create a space that feels both steady and honest—where you can slow down, explore what’s really going on, and begin to experience yourself and your relationships differently over time.

Dr. John Severino
Life Coach, PsyD
ADHD is best understood by those who deal with the disorder on a daily basis. I have coached many ADHD clients who are looking for help with their personal and professional lives. I have studied the science and look forward to the day when the stigma related to ADHD dissipates. If you would like to work with a professional that gets it when it comes to ADHD then I am the coach for you.

Salinas is the county seat of Monterey County and the birthplace of John Steinbeck, a city with a majority Latino population deeply rooted in the agricultural economy of the Salinas Valley, and a mental health landscape shaped by the significant challenges of agricultural labor, immigration stress, gang violence in some neighborhoods, and limited access to culturally and linguistically appropriate care. Spanish-language therapy is essential here, and the demand for bilingual practitioners who understand the specific stressors of farmworker and immigrant community life significantly outpaces supply. Natividad Medical Center, a county-run hospital, provides some behavioral health services, and community health organizations supplement what is a relatively limited private therapy sector. Common therapy concerns include trauma, family separation stress, anxiety, depression, and the intergenerational challenges faced by a community navigating the intersection of a demanding agricultural economy and evolving cultural identity.
