Ravina Wadhwani

Ravina Wadhwani

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.3 mi away • Aliso Viejo, CA


Hi there, My name is Ravina D. Wadhwani, M.Ed, LPCC, a licensed therapist with a deeply personal mission for curating a therapy space where individuals feel brave to heal, grow, unlearn and embrace alignment with their authentic selves. .

I learned (in my own journey) that silencing myself was safer, people pleasing was favorable, and putting myself in the back row was more acceptable, rather than being my authentic, full self. I learned that it was normal to live in the shadows with anxiety, trauma and depression looming in the shadows. In my own healing journey, I’ve been fortunate to access spaces in which I could unlearn cultural trauma, and conditioning, process my wounds and center my voice. As a professional artist and therapist, I learned to embrace the fact that my story matters --and I just know that yours does too.

As your therapist, I strive to create a warm, purposeful space where therapy can feel authentic to your vibe. Therapy is not a one size fits all journey and it shouldn’t feel cold, rigid, or orchestrated by someone with their own agenda. I strive and take pride in developing our therapeutic relationship. I understand and respect the value of your time and know that it takes an intentional choice to be here- one I do not take lightly.

I cannot wait to work with you as a witness in your healing journey as you navigate life, your symptoms, diagnoses and more. Together we’ll explore, identify, unlearn, re-learn, embrace, and go from surviving to aligning.

Michael Christian Cilnis

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 3.8 mi away • Irvine, CA


Therapy is serious work, but it doesn’t always have to feel heavy. Real change happens in a strong, trusting relationship where you feel safe, supported, and maybe even able to laugh along the way. I help clients struggling with self-image and self-esteem, and am especially passionate about working with people in all stages of recovery—whether newly sober or years into sobriety. Additionally, I'm EMDR trained and use this modality to guide clients in processing past traumatic experiences that negatively impact daily life. I also hold an MBA and incorporate financial psychology to explore the emotional impact of money on well-being.
