Grief counselors and therapists in Simi Valley, CA

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Master Degree from California State University and I've been practicing therapy for over 12 years. I grew up in Italy and moved to the US 42 years ago. I'm a mother and a grandmother and I love to support the community where I lived for 30 years. In my personal life I've experienced losses, single parenthood and the challenge of acculturation. I work with adult men and women struggling with trauma, grief, anxiety, life transitions, and relationships. I'm passionate about helping them live more fulfilling relationships and peaceful life. My practice is guided by my professional experience and education, as well as loving kindness and compassion.

I’m a licensed therapist who understands that life’s journey can be filled with both joy and challenges. With experience working with clients facing anxiety, depression, and identity struggles, I prioritize creating a safe, judgment-free space where you can feel heard and validated. My passion lies in guiding individuals through their emotional landscapes, helping them find purpose and self-confidence to handle life’s challenges.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, certified in Spiritual Guidance and Expressive Art, with a multi-cultural background. I bring a warm, person-centered approach to my practice. I have a passion for working with older adults, especially those navigating life transitions, and I offer therapy in Farsi, Turkish, and English. My focus is on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood.

Welcome. I'm a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to supporting people who are going through a tough life transition, whether it’s a diagnosis, relationship loss, other loss, or it’s you who have changed. You may be stressed, burnt out, depressed, anxious, and/or traumatized by what you are going through and carrying. You don’t have to do this alone. You can find your spark again. I have specialized training in somatic psychotherapy and evidence-based mindfulness therapies. As a person living with T1D, I love working with others in the diabetes community, and I understand the mental load and energy it takes, every single day.

Hi! My greatest passion is working with individuals who wish to free themselves from trauma patterns, negative self-image, dopamine-seeking patterns, and depression. I'm certified in hypnotherapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, and EMDR, and use a client-centered, trauma-informed approach.

I specialize in couples sex therapy, and I understand that love can be the most challenging -and- the most rewarding part of life. I'm passionate about helping you have a healthy, satisfying intimate life and to make your relationship amazing.

I'm glad you're here. I provide an environment where you can share your experiences and current stressors while shedding what no longer serves you to become your best self. I work with individuals impacted by trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
