I am a licensed therapist with extensive experience working with first responders and their families. I understand the unique stressors that accompany careers in emergency services, including exposure to trauma, high-stakes decision-making, shift work, and the impact these demands can have on personal relationships and overall well-being.

I have worked in the field of social services for over 31 years. I have experience working with adult survivors of child abuse, child neglect, domestic violence, commercial exploitation, and rape. I have experience working with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, divorce, family separation, and caretaker fatigue.

Jessica Correa is a psychologist and licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in complex trauma and fostering meaningful relationships. With a warm yet focused approach, she integrates trauma-focused care, attachment work, EMDR, and Brainspotting. Jessica is deeply committed to creating conscious spaces where clients feel empowered to heal, grow, and thrive.

Understanding ourselves is one of the hardest and most meaningful parts of healing. After years working in community mental health and now in outpatient therapy, I've come to believe that many of the stories, beliefs, and survival strategies we carry once made sense, but no longer fit the life we want to live. Sometimes, those stories didn't even begin with us. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions, helping them better understand themselves, reconnect with their own voice, and move toward the life they want through a trauma-informed approach that integrates CBT, mindfulness, and somatic awareness.

Hi there!

My name is Angelica Sanchez and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California. My experience in community mental health for several years has allowed me to gain experience in working with a wide range of individuals. In working with children, adolescents, and adults I have learned how important it is to be caring, flexible, and nonjudgmental for my clients. I am passionate in helping my clients cope with life's challenges and reach their personal mental health goals. If you're dealing with stress, trauma, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help.

Hi there! My name is Gina, and I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. I have 6+ years of experience helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship concerns, helping them build greater self-esteem and discover their authentic sense of self-worth.

I support clients who want to better understand attachment patterns, communication difficulties, and recurring relationship dynamics, as well as individuals coping with chronic illness, pain, disability, cancer-related concerns, and questions of meaning and life purpose.

I use an integrative approach, that fosters insight and provides practical tools for growth by combining evidence-based mental health practices with holistic methods to support mind-body wellness, which helps you overcome challenges and achieve your highest potential. Along with my specialized training in Depression, Anxiety, Autism, ADHD, and a wide range of other conditions, my multicultural training provides an additional edge in working with diverse populations.

With 16 years of experience in the field, I bring a wealth of knowledge, expertise, realness to my practice including working with individuals, couples, and families. I am passionate about supporting my clients in creating lasting change, whether it’s through improving mental health, deepening personal relationships, or building stronger family connections. My goal is to guide you in finding the clarity, strength, and solutions needed to thrive.

Hi there! My name is Jackie Arceo and I am a Filipino-American Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and am currently residing in San Diego. I received my Master's in Social Welfare from UCLA. I have worked in residential settings, schools, as well as outpatient clinics. I am trained in CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, and EMDR. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my partner and going on regular foodie adventures.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and accepted. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, and I work with each client to understand their unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I strive to create a space where you can be open and honest without judgment, while working together to better understand yourself, develop practical tools, and create meaningful change.

Before becoming a social worker, I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. My background in dance has shaped the way I think about the connection between the mind, body, emotions, and overall well-being. I value the role that creativity, self-expression, and awareness can play in healing and personal growth. I also believe that humor, honesty, and authenticity have a place in therapy, and I want you to feel comfortable being your whole self in our work together.

Two decades of clinical excellence.

Dr. Cindy Ruelas-Tafolla's path to becoming a clinician began at age 13 with the sudden loss of her father — an experience that planted the seed of her life's purpose: to be the kind of support she needed during her own darkest moments.

She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Law and Society from UC Santa Barbara, her Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California, and her Doctorate in Social Work (DSW) from USC.

Over two decades, she has served as a Medical Social Worker, Case Manager, and Behavioral Health Therapist — bringing doctoral-level depth, board-certified credentials, and genuine compassion to every client she works with.

All roads lead to Rome! It doesn't matter where we jump in, if you’re ready, we’ll get there. My POV is through a Neurodiverse lens and incorporates Attachment Theory and C-PTSD with the idea that much of our conflict and distress stems from old wounds & unmet needs that can often be traced back to necessary adaptations needed to survive not only our families of origin but also societal norms and expectations. The gig of being human is hard and de-coding this blueprint can provide a path toward understanding, healing and, fulfillment. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities including Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
