Daicy Magallon

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Colton, CA


I am a Latinx therapist who specializes in trauma and the healing journey that follows. My approach is grounded in both professionalism and personal experience. Having done my own therapy work, I understand the courage it takes to face painful experiences, navigate life's challenges, and commit to personal growth.

I recognize that healing is not always a linear process. Growth often involves discomfort, vulnerability, and persistence. Because of this, I strive to create a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful change.

Whether you are processing trauma, navigating life transitions, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, authenticity, and respect for your unique experiences.

Gina Cole

Gina Cole

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Ventura, CA


I help clients break the cycle of self-defeating patterns by exploring the lasting impact of early attachment wounds—especially the often unspoken pain of under-mothering and emotional neglect. My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and the belief that healing begins when we de-stigmatize shame and make space for our unmet needs.

With certification in EMDR and advanced training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), I support clients in working through trauma, grief, and relational challenges. My background also includes working with first responders and professional athletes navigating high-pressure roles and emotional resilience.

Whether you're facing anxiety, grief, or feeling stuck in old patterns, I provide a steady therapeutic presence—offering insight, empathy, and deep respect for your healing process. Together, we work toward greater self-trust, healthier boundaries, and a renewed sense of wholeness.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in South Pasadena

Finding the right therapist in South Pasadena starts with getting clear on what you need. Consider whether you're looking for support with a specific concern like anxiety, depression, ADHD, or relationship challenges, or whether you'd benefit from a broader approach. Licensed therapists (such as LCSWs, LMFTs, LPCs, and psychologists) each bring different training and perspectives, so reviewing a provider's bio and areas of focus can help you narrow your search.

South Pasadena is part of the broader Pasadena and San Gabriel Valley area, where hundreds of therapists practice both in-person and virtually. Practical factors matter too: look for a provider whose schedule aligns with yours, who offers the session format you prefer, and who you feel comfortable speaking with. Many providers offer a free phone consultation so you can get a sense of their style before booking your first session.

Therapy in the greater Los Angeles area can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit depending on their coverage.
