I have a strong track record of working with parents, building relationships and connecting with youth who are reluctant or nervous about therapy. I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Masters in Education and Childhood Development. I've worked as a therapist in Jr. High and High School settings and currently work in private clinic to heal family relationships.

Hi, I’m Victoria Gamboa Mejia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I support adults who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, and the challenges of living and loving in ways that don’t always fit the mold, or healing from systems that never quite made room for them. If you’ve been told you're “too much” or “not enough,” if your mind moves fast but you often feel stuck, or if you're trying to figure out how to live more fully as your authentic self you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out in isolation.

Being an LMFT is my second career, and the one in which I finally feel like my best self. Having been in the business world for 20 years before this has given me lots of great life experience. I bring all of this and my blended family life to the table when I'm in the room with clients. They deserve the whole person.

I do not believe in a cookie-cutter approach, and center my client in all things with regards to their treatment. I may have the tools to support you, but you are certainly the expert in your life.
