Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
I’m an EMDR therapist with a PMH-C certification, specializing in trauma and perinatal mental health. I work with clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or impacted by past experiences, as well as those navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or the challenges of pregnancy and postpartum.
My ideal clients are open to growth and looking for more than just symptom relief—they want to better understand themselves and feel more at ease in their daily lives. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can process what’s been weighing on you.
Using EMDR and other evidence-based approaches, I help clients heal from past experiences and build resilience. I also welcome individuals with a wide range of mental health concerns.

Soma Aloia, SolDance Therapy & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, CYT, OrdM
I create a safe space for you to slow down, settle, and be yourself. Always an invitation. My work is deeply meaningful and something I am passionate about - knowing how we can come into our full potential given the right support - kindness, patience, acknowledgement, and deep listening. "Being-with" holds the greatest potential for transformation. I hold you in the place you need the deepest support. We sit and listen, together. Understanding our stories is important for starting healing, but learning to be with the body to allow the unspoken voice of frozen traumatic imprints to thaw and heal, is the only way to true behavior change and transformation. My work with you helps you do all this. Schedule a 15-minute complimentary intro call to find out more. https://www.somaaloia.com/contact-soma-aloia
While highly trained and educated, my greatest professional growth and abilities come from the Health of my own healing experiences - my inner laboratory - and from deep learning with my clients themselves. It brings me great joy to be of service to all ages, supporting and witnessing our "being and becoming" as humans, in spite of what is going on around us. Can we heal years and layers of deep wounding and hurt? Yes we can! Over and over again, I have witnessed it... yes we can! We create secure attachment in a turbulent world, one person at a time.
I dedicate my practice to my teachers who've come before me and to my precious clients - who always believe enough in themselves to be courageous... to trust their hearts even if "the seas catch fire". It is an honor to witness and support this, along with supporting the shift happening in the whole world because of this work, and because of love. I look forward to meeting you in the spaciousness of this work together.

New Beginnings Counseling Center (NBCC)
Pre-Licensed Professional
At New Beginnings Counseling Center's (NBCC) Donald J. Willfong Community Counseling Center, we are deeply committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges with compassionate, accessible, and culturally attuned mental health care. For over 50 years, our nonprofit clinic has been a cornerstone of the Santa Barbara community, offering confidential counseling and therapeutic services that empower people to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Our diverse team of masters- and doctoral-level counselors — supported by experienced clinical supervisors — provides evidence-informed therapy in a traineeship setting, helping clients explore life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, compulsive behaviors, substance use challenges, stress, anger management, isolation, and more. We offer individual, couples, family, and group counseling, available both in person and through telehealth to meet the varied needs of our community.
We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of financial means. That’s why we provide one of the most affordable sliding-scale fee structures in the region — many clients pay less than $15 per session — and we never turn anyone away due to inability to pay. Counseling is available in both English and Spanish.
In addition to our clinical services, New Beginnings is dedicated to fostering community well-being through training the next generation of clinicians, integrating trauma-informed practices, and ensuring that our services are responsive, respectful, and strength-based. Our mission is to help individuals not just cope, but truly thrive, by supporting their emotional growth, resilience, and overall wellness.
We warmly welcome you to begin your journey toward healing and self-discovery with us.

Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I believe that everyone is capable of change. However, we must believe in our worth and treat ourselves with kindness in order to create that change. If life feels hard right now, that's because it is! The bodies and brains that we have were not built for the world we currently live in. Everyone grows up in an environment where their needs were not perfectly met. The ways we dealt with those unmet needs as children become unhealthy coping strategies in adulthood. With conscious effort, reflection, and practice, we can heal those wounds and learn better strategies. That's what therapy is for and I am here to help!
