Nichelle Alva

I'm an independently licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) serving the people of California. I'm passionate about serving multicultural and traditionally-underserved communities which may includes teens and young adults, folks with family issues, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, neurodivergent folks, and those w/ chronic health conditions. Treatment areas I specialize in supporting include relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma/grief, adjustment difficulty, and neurodevelopmental issues such as AuDHD.

I use a trauma-informed, integrative, strengths-based approach of a collaborative nature to help people change, grow, and improve as they very much deserve.

In our sessions together, we'll collaborate to establish the goals we'll work towards over the course of our time together. My goal is to help guide you in the direction you want to be in. I will validate and encourage you to recognize your strengths so that you can use them to help you to grow and move forward in your life.
