Alejandra Kenia Ipina
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
You don't have to continue pretending you are perfectly fine. Whether you are an eldest daughter, only daughter, or mom, you may have learned early on to take on more responsibility in relationships. Deep down, you know it takes much self-talk to be present, to set boundaries, you find it difficult to answer phone calls because you are afraid, and you desperately want help, but don't know how to ask.
Carrying heavy family expectations, chronic guilt, and the pressure to be perfect takes a heavy physical and emotional toll. If you're exhausted from self-neglect and feel like your own needs are too much, no estas sola.
I'm Kenia an LMFT with 9 years of experience helping high achieving, first gen women heal from childhood trauma and break the cycle of survival patterns.
Working together we use somatic therapy to release stored survival tension and nervous system stress. Explore complex family dynamics without losing yourself. Rebuild self-trust, repair confidence, and feel secure in who you are.
My approach is grounding, nurturing and empowering. Ready to take the first step? Call me or text me to book your free 15 minute consultation.

Marysa Garcia
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Financial Social Worker
Hi, I'm Marysa. My approach to therapy is this: you are the expert on you. Our work together will be a grounding space for self-reflection, where we uncover your inner strength to cultivate hope and forge a path forward. Therapy is your process. I will always invite you to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable, going at a pace that feels right for you. As your therapist, I will support you in understanding the way stress and trauma show up in both the mind and the body so that your healing can be something you feel in your bones.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
Maybe you've become so good at holding everything together that you hardly notice how much you're carrying anymore. You're someone others can depend on, but they may not realize how much effort it takes to keep everything going.
You might overthink decisions, put pressure on yourself to get things right, worry about disappointing people, or find that you're much better at recognizing what everyone else needs than knowing what you need yourself. Even when you're exhausted, it can be hard to slow down or stop feeling responsible for everything.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, chronic stress, self-doubt, and the pressure of always feeling like they should be doing more. In therapy, we'll look at what's keeping you caught in these experiences and work toward helping you recognize your needs, trust yourself more, and feel less obligated to keep pushing through.

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.

Aimen Bukhari
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I help South Asian and Muslim women who feel responsible for everyone else but have no space left for themselves.
From the outside, you may look like you have it together. You are dependable, capable, and the person others turn to when something goes wrong. But privately, you are exhausted. You replay conversations, worry about disappointing people, struggle to say no, and feel guilty slowing down.
Many of my clients carry the weight of family expectations, caregiving roles, cultural pressures, and the belief that their needs should come last. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, burnout, resentment, and feeling disconnected from yourself.
In therapy, we look beyond surface-level coping and explore the patterns underneath, including over-responsibility, people-pleasing, guilt, and long-standing roles you have learned to carry. Together, we create space for your needs, your voice, and a way of living that feels more balanced and sustainable.
I offer private pay telehealth therapy throughout California.

Arazeli Wagner
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Many people seek therapy because they feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or caught in relationship patterns they don’t fully understand. Anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional reactivity often have deeper roots than what’s happening in the present moment. I work with adults who want to understand these patterns with compassion and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives and relationships.

Dr. M at Insight Thoughts Psychotherapy Services (ITPS) Inc
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPCC
You may be here because something “feels off”. Your thoughts run in circles. Your mood drops without warning. Old experiences still shape how you react, even when you want to move on. Therapy can help you make sense of all of that. I work with individuals who deal with anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, and stress tied to major life changes. The goal is not to label you. The goal is to understand what drives your thoughts, emotions, and actions so you can respond with more control and less pain. I use proven methods like CBT, DBT, and trauma-focused therapy. These approaches help us spot patterns that keep you stuck and build skills you can use in real life. We look at what is happening now, what shaped it, and what needs to change.
Your voice matters here. We decide together what you want help with and how we will work toward it. Therapy is not something done to you. It is something we do with purpose, guided by your needs. You do not need to have it all figured out. You just need a place to start.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Whatever the reason that brings you to psychotherapy at this time, I offer refuge in a confidential and nonjudgmental space where your story will be listened to with sensitivity and care. I am especially passionate about supporting people who are facing transitions: elders, people in midlife, students, artists, thinkers, and my fellow therapists. I am committed to helping couples manage conflict and envision new ways of communicating and being together. I specialize in accompanying you to those interior places that feel difficult, and in revisiting painful experiences that you can talk to no one else about. My practice is founded on our developing an authentic relationship of mutual regard. It will be my privilege to walk alongside you as we confront conflict, distress, and change to move together toward your healing, growth, and greater contentment in life. Please feel free to contact me for a brief complimentary online consultation.
