Hello. My name is Ana and I am a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (128445), in the beautiful state of California. I have been in the counseling and social work field for 25+ yrs. Simply stated, I was born to do therapy, it is a gift and an honor. I am a safe, trusting and caring person, that is able to connect with a diversity of people. I have worked with children, teens, elderly, foster care, gang members and most recently, death row inmates in prison.

I have found, through many of those experiences that emotional pain, feeling alone and experiencing anxiety or depression, is common even amongst many variables. I know that the desire to live a deeper, peaceful and meaningful life can also be a motivating and driving force. I too have done much of that internal work and reflection in my life. I have learned that it is OK to be just me without pressure, more compassion and living the authentic life I deserve. I would love the same for you.

Welcome to Couples Therapy! Are you having the same argument over and over? Did your relationship experience betrayal and loss of trust? Or are you simply living as roommates or logistical partners who run a family, bussing kids across various sports/schools events, with little to no passion toward each other? I am here to help! I work with couples to identify the patterns that block connection and to rediscover the emotional bond that brought you two together. My goal is to create a calm, supportive space where both of you feel heard, respected, and understood. Change begins when we learn to understand - not fix - each other.

Happy patient looking away

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 Tustin

Finding the right therapist in Tustin starts with getting clear on what you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship challenges, or postpartum concerns, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about their approach, specialties, and what to expect in sessions.

Tustin is home to a range of mental health providers, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists, many of whom offer both in-person and virtual appointments. Consider what matters most to you — a specific therapy style, availability that fits your schedule, or a provider who speaks your language. A free phone consultation can help you decide if a provider is the right match before you commit.

Therapy in the Orange County area can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs vary based on your location and exact coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
