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.

I'm Tene Rodgers, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience in mental health and social services. I made the decision to become fully licensed five years ago because I wanted to go deeper in the work I've always cared about, and I haven't looked back since. I'm a Black woman, and that lived perspective shapes how I show up in the room. I offer culturally affirming care to adults, teens, and families, with a particular focus on trauma, grief, women's issues, relationship dynamics, and substance use.

Hola, Soy Christina Zapata, mi pronombre es ella. Hello, I'm Christina Zapata, my pronouns are she and her. I am bilingual (English/Spanish), bi-and pan cultural. My professional training is in clinical social work. I started out in depth-oriented psychotherapy in 2012, moved to family work with foster and adoptive families in the middle part of my career and have returned to psychodynamic, systems-oriented psychotherapy with individuals and families since 2017. I have experience working with Transgender individuals, those in current or former relationships where intimate partner violence is present, foster and adopted youth, and Spanish speaking political and economic refugees and immigrants. I am trained in EMDR. I have undertaken a three year grief training to help people stay connected to, sit with and move through pain. More recently, I am adding to my practice work around supporting individuals who are experiencing stress and confusion in their workplace.

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 Mental Health Therapist in West Covina

Searching for therapists in West Covina starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.

West Covina is a smaller city in the San Gabriel Valley, so the number of nearby in-person therapy options may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Virtual appointments can expand your search to therapists licensed in California who may be a better fit for your availability, preferences, or care needs. Before booking, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios closely can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, structure, and experience.

Therapy in West Covina can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new clients, and offer clear profile details, so you can compare your options and book directly when you’re ready.
