I’m Elaine, a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, clinical supervisor and mental health trainer, passionate about helping individuals and families heal, grow, and honor their unique stories.

With over a decade of experience, I specialize in supporting first-generation, BIPOC, and (im)migrant communities to embrace cultural strengths, interrupt cycles of trauma, and navigate life’s complexities.

Wherever you are on your journey, I am honored to walk alongside you. I look forward to connecting and supporting you as you take the next step toward healing and growth.

Hi there, I'm Raquel! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I want to celebrate you for taking the courageous step toward prioritizing your health and well-being. For over 25 years, I have had the honor of walking alongside individuals, couples, and families on their journeys of healing, recovery, and restoration. It is a privilege to support those navigating life’s challenges, and together, create a personalized roadmap to nurture the mind while strengthening resilience to weather life’s storms with greater confidence, ease, and clarity, so you can embrace life with renewed strength and purpose.

I have worked in behavioral health for over 15 years and have learned that listening to patients and understanding their unique goals is essential to achieving positive outcomes.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Berkeley, CA, and I’ve worked in mental health care since 2012. My background includes community-based work, trauma-informed care, and leadership in training and clinical development. I earned my MSW from NYU and specialize in treating anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I enjoy working with adults navigating changes - career shifts, identity questions, or simply trying to feel more at home in themselves. Clients often say they feel safe, understood, and more at ease after we talk. I believe therapy works best with a good sense of humor - even in hard sessions, there’s room for relief and laughter.

I am a licensed therapist who has been working in the field since 2014 with diverse individuals in different settings. I attended California State Polytechnic University for my Bachelors Degree in Psychology and the University of Southern California for my Masters in Social Work. I specialize in working with individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues and grief and loss issues. On a personal note, I love to hike, cook and watch movies.
