Silvana Beville

Hi, I’m Silvana Beville, a bilingual English- and Spanish-speaking Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and the founder of Rise & Rooted Therapy. My professional background includes community mental health, supporting children and families, and supervising clinicians. I now focus on helping adults and couples navigate anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the impact of past trauma. I offer a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where we can build on your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your needs, with space for both reflection and practical tools. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and Motivational Interviewing to help you understand the connections between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I support adults and couples navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and past trauma. Together, we’ll work toward goals that matter to you, such as building healthier boundaries, strengthening communication, and feeling more confident in how you respond to challenges.

During our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’re experiencing, and what you hope will change. I’ll ask questions about your background, relationships, and current concerns while giving you room to share at a pace that feels comfortable. My goal is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and can ask questions openly. Together, we’ll identify initial goals and discuss how we can work toward them, without expecting you to have everything figured out right away.
