I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) who helps people heal from the inside out.

I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults for years, and one thing I’ve learned is that healing happens when we feel seen, safe, and accepted exactly as we are. My style is warm, real, and collaborative. I meet you where you are, and we go from there.

Therapist

Virtual • Encino, CA


Hi, I'm Cristina Hodge, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) serving adults and couples in California. I help people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, and recurring patterns that leave them feeling stuck.

Many of the struggles people experience today are influenced by recurring patterns in the way they think, respond, and relate to others. Together, we'll identify the patterns contributing to your current challenges, develop practical tools for change, and create meaningful, lasting progress.

I am passionate about helping clients develop greater self-awareness, improve their relationships, and move toward a more satisfying and meaningful life. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, or a difficult life transition, therapy can provide a space for understanding, growth, empowerment, and meaningful change.

Hello, I’m Carmen Alegria, LCSW.

At times, life can feel heavy. You may be navigating the end of a relationship, coping with grief, managing work stress, or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or low mood. You may notice yourself overthinking, feeling emotionally drained, struggling with boundaries, or questioning how you got here. If you’re feeling stuck or disconnected, therapy can offer a space to slow down, reflect, and begin moving forward with intention.

Desire Rodriguez

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hi, and thank you for taking the first step toward prioritizing your mental health! I am based in Santa Barbara, CA, and I work with people who have spent their lives fitting into rooms that weren't made for them. My specialty is helping adults, teens, and couples reconnect with who they actually are beneath the roles they've been playing — whether that's a trauma survivor, a corporate burnout, or someone who has simply never quite felt like they belonged anywhere. I bring both clinical training and lived experience to this work, and I offer sessions in English and Spanish. Visit www.therapybydesire.com to learn more about me.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Idyllwild-Pine Cove, CA


Most of us aren't born knowing how to navigate relationships, understand our emotions, or process trauma. Many things influence how we react and behave, but that doesn't mean we can't grow. My goal is to help you build confidence through discovering your self-worth and practicing self-compassion. My priority is creating a safe, judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable. I show up as my authentic self to build trust with you. I'm an empathetic listener and communicate in a calm, gentle, respectful way. My job isn't to tell you what to do, but to help you process and explore topics to build self-awareness and confidence.
