Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
I first got my start in ministry working as a worship leader and musician, and later in the private and public schools as a teacher. These experiences opened my eyes to the need for people of all ages to find healing through difficult experiences. My therapy career began in the private practice setting and then I worked at a clinic as a child and family therapist for several years before starting my own practice. My specialization and training is in working with couples, kids and families and individuals. Currently, I'm an EMDR certified therapist which is one of the best evidence based trauma recovery models for those wanting to move through painful experiences and find healing from trauma. My goal is to walk with you on the healing journey and help you understand how to have a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Dr. Lori Lynn Mann
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Psy.D.
Ever feel stuck? Maybe you are bogged down with thoughts, memories, or uncomfortable feelings. Or maybe you are just itching for a change in your life. I am a licensed psychotherapist with an additional doctorate degree. I help individuals, couples, and families throughout Orange County & LA County. My approach is one where I aim for you to feel comfortable from the very beginning. No cookie cutter model here...I will find a way to meet you where you are at and work toward your therapy goals. I'm an accomplice toward helping you feel heard and validated in your journey...because life, after all, through the good and the bad, is a journey, isn't it? We will work together through the highs and lows, the conflicts internally and externally, re-group when thought processes get us in a rut, and focus on full mind-body health. I walk the walk in wellness in that it is my life mission to help better the lives of others. I am a semi-professional marathon runner and creator of the mind-body wellness brand, TIER Wellness, that encourages others to reach the next TIER in their lives.

Iris Therapy Center
Psychologist
Young people deserve therapists who understand that adolescence isn't a problem to solve, but a profound developmental stage that requires specialized knowledge and genuine respect. At Iris, our role is to provide clinical expertise, developmental understanding, and trusted relationships so they can access their own wisdom. We offer both practical skill-building and deeper therapeutic work to understand the patterns and meanings that shape relationships and sense of self. We believe families are systems: when one person heals, everyone benefits.
