Hello and Welcome
I am Gamalia, but most people call me Mila.
I believe in meeting individuals where they are by being genuine, compassionate, empathic, and providing a nonjudgmental space where clients feel free to be themselves, express themselves and discover all that they are. I aspire to support and empower individuals throughout their mental health journey.
I have work with all populations and identities including those who identify as LGBTQ+, people of color, youth, and young adults. I provide support with a variety of mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, self-esteem development, family conflicts, stress, trauma, and substance abuse issues.
My approach to therapy is to utilize evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focus Therapy tailored to your specific needs.
I have a background in community mental health therapy supporting underserved communities, children, and families. I obtained my Associate's Degree in the State of Alabama, Bachelor’s in Sociology from Texas Tech University, and Master’s degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix and Education Counseling with Pupil Personnel Services Credential from National University.
About me: I am a California native. I enjoy riding my Harley, crafting, watching college football (I’m an Alabama fan “roll tide”), being with my family and friends.
Hello and welcome! I’m Isiah Green. I am a Black Man with a passion for working with individuals and couples including Men/Women/Trans and Non-Binary clients ranging in age from 13-80. The choice to begin therapy is a testament to your strength and courage. The weight of your issues at times can be tough to carry; especially when it’s too heavy or no one has taught you how to bare it. Some of us have been taught to “be strong” and just “make it work”, and to never complain. However, this can leave you feeling overwhelmed or confused about your own emotions.
My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space that will allow you to openly express your thoughts and feelings.
I specialize in assisting clients with relationship/couples’ issues, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, domestic violence, trauma, and grief.
My therapeutic approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused, and Gottman’s Couples Therapy. I believe that there is no straight path to fixing all our problems as we are all unique. I use all my knowledge and resources to assist every type of client I encounter.
A little bit about me: I am a father, who has spent 8 years serving as a member of the United States Navy, with combat-trauma-based experiences; 4 of which were spent working as a Sexual Assault Victim Advocate for members and families of the armed services. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of La Verne, and my Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Pepperdine University.
Hello there and welcome! You have already begun a courageous step in your journey by seeking out counseling services. My name is Sarah and I am passionate to help individuals find their inner strengths as well as find ways to protect their inner peace. I have experience in working with a wide variety of ages ranging from eighteen to seventy-five. I have learned over the years as a training professional that mental health has no bias against: age, sex, gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and religion. Therefore, I am devoted to helping individuals create a path of hope, success, love, and growth.
My specialty is marriage, couples, and family counseling. When asked by others why I specifically chose this direction, I simply stated 'because in one way or another, we all yearn for a relationship.' We seek relationships with others whether it be through friendship, romance, co-workers, family, within ourselves, or just a smile from a stranger walking down the street. I have found that if I can help facilitate mending a broken relationship, ending one peacefully, or working on strengthening the relationship in oneself, that is the greatest reward of all. I also have experience working with clients with anxiety, trauma, depression, psychosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
My therapeutic approach consists of Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, Family Systems, and Rapid Resolution Therapy. It is also important to build a trusting therapeutic relationship that consists of empathy, a non-judgemental atmosphere, and a supportive space. By utilizing several different techniques it allows the capacity for each client to have their own individual needs met.
My background in the mental health field consists of obtaining my associates of arts in psychology from Citrus College, where I then went to Cal State Long Beach to obtain my Bachelors. From there I further pursued my masters of marriage, couples, and family counseling from Walden University. Since obtaining my masters, I have experience in private practice as well as a mental health hospital.
I look forward to helping you find your inner strengths, peace, and balance.
My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and comfortable environment that allows for personal growth and self-awareness. I am devoted to helping individuals overcome relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, grief, and loss.
I specialize in working with latino/a individuals as well as individuals from all ethnicities, ages, and backgrounds. I am driven to make a difference in my clients’ lives by providing support and collaborating with them to improve their situations.
The different approaches I use are motivational interviewing, empowerment, narrative, and person-centered therapy.
Here’s a little about me: I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Human Services from California State University, Fullerton. I then went on to earn my Master of Social Work from Arizona State University. I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker in the state of California.
During my downtime, I work on improving my cooking skills, trying new hobbies such as knitting or painting, traveling, and spending time with my family.
I would love to help you overcome and better understand what you are going through.

Change is possible when we have the tools to create that change.
My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space that will allow you to open and express your thoughts and feelings freely, with a mission to support you in achieving the life and things you desire.

Hi I’m Whitney,
I commend you for choosing to heal and evolve. I know that starting therapy can often feel scary and/or exciting so I acknowledge your courage for taking this leap of faith. I also know what it feels like to be searching for a therapist, someone to connect with, someone who just gets you so I’d be happy to confirm if we’re a good fit.
I believe that we have everything we need inside of us and it’s the inner work that heals us so that we can align with our higher self and embody our fullest potential. I also believe that it’s through the inevitable difficulties and challenges that motivate us to make the necessary changes in our lives that lead to self transformation.
My goal is to guide you to that place of healing and personal liberation within you so that you may experience harmony in all your life’s affairs. I utilize an integrative approach with therapeutic interventions such as (CBT, psychodynamic) and holistic practices such as (mindfulness, breath work, sound healing, self-care) to support your overall wellness. Together we will explore and identify unproductive behaviors, limiting thoughts/beliefs and replace them with healthier coping skills.
My personal experiences and professional background have been divinely set up to facilitate my own healing journey and have equipped me with the ability to support yours, especially if you have concerns regarding: depression/anxiety, relationships, spirituality/religion, childhood trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, overall self discovery and sexuality/gender identity.
A little bit about me, I earned my BA in Psychology from Cal State Long Beach and my Masters in Social Work from Cal State Dominguez Hills. I am trained in sound healing and breathwork.

Hey I’m Ace and I’m glad you’re here.
Life isn't always easy and sometimes we find ourselves feeling lonely, confused, and unsure about the future. Dealing with feelings and balancing the pressures of life can be overwhelming at times, but if you are reading this, you are taking a step toward relief. Breath. You’ve arrived at a safe space where you are free to come as you are. As your therapist, my purpose is to support your journey toward mental wellness. Together we will explore, process, and dive into the challenges of your life to overcome obstacles that stand in your way.

I’m currently pursuing my doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Fielding Graduate University. I love traveling, reading, listening to music, and relaxing in front of the water as often as I can.
My purpose in life has been to heal myself so that I can assist others who seek to do the same. My personal experiences, cultural identities, and professional background have guided my own journey, and have equipped me with the ability to support yours, especially if you have concerns regarding:
· Sexuality · Gender Expression · Relationships (platonic, romantic, and non-monogamous)
· Family Dynamics · Trauma (personal and intergenerational) · Cultural Influences (ethnic/racial issues, immigration, first-generation American status, transracial adoption, privilege/oppression) · Academics/Career · Substance-use · Eating/Weight · Grief Loss · Dying
· Overall self-discovery
You are a unique person with personal experiences that make you who you are, so my therapeutic approach prioritizes acceptance, non-judgment, and growth by drawing from psychodynamic therapy and other evidenced-based practices with holistic/alternative frameworks.

Welcome! My name is Julia Curran. My approach to therapy is collaborative and focuses on insight, empowerment, and making meaningful changes in life. I offer support around anxiety, depression, grief and loss, managing chronic illness, navigating life transitions, sexuality and gender, traumatic experiences, improving relationships, and contemporary existential crises. I am particularly interested in mindfulness, attachment, and neurobiological perspectives in therapy. I am bilingual in English and French and offer sessions in both languages.
We are all still emerging from the difficult past several years marked by uncertainty and grief, and we could all benefit from some extra support. My goal is to help you lower your stress threshold, honor pain, find meaning, and build resiliency. I believe integrating emotional work into self-care is an important way to not only care for ourselves, but also for our loved ones and the greater collective. In a world that can feel increasingly isolating and hard, I hope to help you make space for connection and softness.
I came to my role as a therapist after working as an arts educator and artist for many years.

“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.” - Maya Angelou
I believe in practicing a holistic approach and treating the whole person when comes to counseling. Our mental health is affected by a combination of physical, psychological, and environmental experiences. Addressing all aspects of a client’s life, allows me to personalize treatment specific to the client’s needs rather than focusing on only treating symptoms of a deeper issue. Ultimately, I work to create a positive, warm, supportive, and constructive environment where clients feel free to say whatever is on their minds without fear of judgment. I strive to create an atmosphere in which clients feel accepted, learned, protected, and understood.
My areas of focus are anxiety, depression, grief & loss, and trauma. I specialize in working with adolescents, teens, and adults of all ages and CBT, DBT, and strengths-based therapy. Currently, I am working toward certification to provide EDMR.
A little bit about my background is I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Arizona State University. I am now pursuing my Master of Social Work degree from the same university specializing in Health and Behavioral Health. In my free time, I like reading, painting, watching sports, and cooking.
My passion is to help individuals heal from trauma. By creating an open, safe, collaborative, engaging, and supportive environment the process of healing from trauma can begin.
I specialize in working with teens and adults from all walks of life. I work with individuals who have experienced trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, stress and anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders.
In my work, I utilize an array of therapeutic interventions stemming from evidence-based models such as cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, mindfulness, and dialectical behavioral therapy, while maintaining a culturally responsive, client-centered approach.
About me: I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology, a Master’s degree in Health Administration, and I am now pursuing a Master’s degree in Social Work. My previous work experience included teaching and mentoring individuals with disabilities.
When I am not working, I enjoy and participate in all things outdoors. I enjoy mountain hiking, biking, running, rock climbing, kayaking, and downhill skiing for sports. I believe that engaging in health and wellness empowers individuals and provides a guiding direction towards skillset development that then facilitates individual recovery and the change process.
I would be glad and honored to welcome you, to assist you on your path toward self-discovery, growth, learning, healing, and recovery.

About me: I enjoy spending time with my 7-year-old, Maltipoo, Mickey, and watching tv shows. Most of my free time goes into bettering myself as an individual and learning more about psychodynamic interventions. I enjoy hiking, viewing nature, listening to music, going to festivals, and tattoos!
It would be a pleasure to welcome you to The Center of Resiliency and support you on your path to healing and rediscovering who you truly are.
Hi there! I’m Michelle Santana. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor. I am an Orange County native and I have been in the field of social work for over 20 years. I began my clinical mental health career in school and home-based mental health. I later transitioned into community mental health care and currently run a part-time private practice specializing in the treatment of trauma survivors. In addition, I specialize in crisis counseling and support adolescents in secondary education while teaching masters-level counseling students as an adjunct professor.
I am most passionate about the restorative and healing aspects of mental health therapy and trauma-informed practice. I believe our most painful setbacks are the platforms for life’s greatest comebacks! I have had the sacred honor to witness the power of a healing environment and the radical impact therapy has on people's lives. I approach treatment holistically, using my training in TFCBT, EMDR, DBT, attachment-focused therapy, and mindfulness to develop a personalized plan to treat a variety of individuals and couples.
When I'm not working, I keep very busy running after my toddler as a new mom, enjoying lots of coffee, walks, and adventures surrounded by friends and family.
Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Human-Animal Interventions Specialist who specializes in working with individuals who have survived sexual assault, childhood abuse, and post-traumatic stress, as well as couples struggling with communication.
He conducts evaluations and provides letters for Emotional Support Animals and Gender-Affirming Intervention consultations. Jordan has been a clinical supervisor for 7 years, working in both community-based and outpatient settings.
Jordan’s aim in his work with individuals is to resolve and clear shame, guilt, grief, anger, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and chronic pain at their root cause, not to teach coping skills or give advice.
His aim in his work with couples is to provide evidenced-based tools and ways of thinking about things within the relationship which have been shown to work when applied effectively, not to point out who is right/wrong or referee arguments.
Jordan has a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California and a Bachelor’s degree in religion with a focus in Buddhism from the George Washington University in Washington, DC.
Hello There,

Here's a little about me: I have dedicated my life and mission to help individuals eradicate stress, worry, fear, sadness, guilt, regret, depression, trauma, and relationship problems. I have spent the last 10 years learning and implementing the best and most effective services to help women, men, and teens from many different backgrounds, cultures and identities. Over the last 10 years, I have helped hundreds of individuals, just like yourself, overcome difficult life circumstances, create the life they desired and achieve happiness.
Therapy is a journey that starts with creating a unique, individualized treatment program tailored to meet your specific needs and geared towards helping you transcend your life. Yes, we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalysis, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) interventions, as well as Acceptance and Commitment interventions. However, true relief begins when you feel heard and understood as well as when you build real self-confidence and strong, supportive connections and relationships with others.
My goal is to create a warm and inviting space of radical acceptance and empathy, where you can express your deepest thoughts, suppressed feelings, pain and true desires . My goal is to facilitate growth beyond your past and beyond your pain. My goal is to offer fresh, new perspectives and support change within you. My aim is to help you overcome all of your challenges and become resilient, plus happy.
