Welcome, welcome! I am an associate clinical social worker, and I am excited to help you find the comfort and strength within yourself to go on an incredible quest for growth and accomplishment. I have worked with a variety of populations as both a therapist and former fine arts schoolteacher, and I bring a wealth of skills to the table that can be of assistance to you in a safe, judgement-free zone. Life can be difficult, whether you’re working on trauma or wanting to work on goals to improve yourself in general. With a therapist, you won’t have to face it alone.

My name is Samantha Jacquin and I am an LCSW from Los Angeles, California. I have a passion for helping others achieve balance in their lives and create a space to share their feelings.

Hi I am Katie ! Throughout my life I've been driven by a fierce commitment to fostering positive transformations in diverse communities, advocating tirelessly for equal access to mental health resources and support. Guided by an unwavering desire to empower individuals to cultivate emotional resilience amid life's challenges, I've dedicated myself to creating safe havens where people can authentically explore their experiences.

My therapeutic approach is empathetic understanding, sincere, caring, and genuineness without judgment, guilt, or blame. Creating a safe environment where individuals can feel comfortable to be themselves. My passion is helping people overcome trauma through building resiliency and empowerment. Before joining Abundance, I worked in a school district, private practice, and residential dual diagnosis treatment and walked alongside clients toward wholeness and healing. I love working with all individuals, couples, and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma (PTSD), abuse, life transitions, grief and relationships & immigration.

I choose to practice trauma-informed care because intention and corrective experiences are important aspects of healing. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I provide psychotherapy for youth and adults of all ages in individual, couples and family sessions. I value helping clients identify strategies they can apply towards stressors that are impacting their lives in order to experience relief from suffering, develop communication skills, practice healthy coping skills, and improve confidence. I love championing my clients towards their best selves, while contributing encouragement, empathy, and hope for a bright future!

Dealing with life, the every day “stuff,” and emotions can be tough. Don’t be so hard on yourself—healing is a process. I see therapy as a joint venture where our knowledge and skills are combined to create solutions. In my practice I bring kindness, humor, and authenticity with the purpose of creating a safe and nonjudgmental space for my clients to experience freedom. When it comes to treatment, no one size fits all. Because all my clients come from diverse backgrounds with various presenting problems, every therapeutic alliance is unique.

Are you navigating life's unexpected twists and turns? Feeling overwhelmed by past experiences that continue to affect your present? I provide guidance on how to navigate life's transitions and traumas. I also understand social media's impact on mental health, including feelings of isolation and loneliness. I provide a safe space where your cultural background is understood, including pressures of familial expectations, identity struggles, and acculturation challenges. Through our work, I aim to cultivate inner strength and find resilience amid modern pressures. Now seeing Teens and adults.

Hi im Melissa! I have worked with adolescents and individuals with special needs in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs, in the areas of trauma, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, most of which included dual diagnoses. I have also worked in residential care and treatment for those 18+ who sought relief and recovery from mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, trauma, complicated grief, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, psychosis, and co-occurring disorders of substance misuse, disordered eating, gaming, and social media addictions.

I utilize a strength-based and psychodynamic approach that will guide you in re-establishing an authentic relationship with yourself and others so that you may show up lovingly and mindfully to the life you envision.

My career in the helping professions started in 1997 at a residential program in San Francisco working with adults with substance use issues and co-occurring mental health disorders. This launched a long road of determination to attain a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2008 and then a Master’s in Social Work in 2010. I obtained my Clinical License in 2015. Throughout my educational years and afterward, I worked with many different populations such as children, teens, TAY, former foster youth, homeless youth, adults with mental illness, homeless adults, and those arrested for alcohol and/or drug related offenses.

I am licensed in California with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and parenting issues. I also have experience working with clients coping with life changes. I worked with children and their families for nine years, but I prefer to utilize play therapy, so the platform is not conducive to that. I have also worked with adolescents and adults and feel competent in treating them. Utilizing EMDR has been very effective with trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about me. I specialize working with children and adolescents who’ve experienced trauma and depression. I enjoy working with this population because preventative intervention can aid children in overcoming their adversities at a young age in order to become healthy adults. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my sessions to address negative thought patterns, anxiety, depression and anger problems.

“What is to give light must endure burning.” ― Victor Frankl. Everyone needs someone to hear them. I am here to lend an ear, be present when life gets tough, and assist you in finding coping skills to weather any storm successfully. Life can be confusing and stressful and we all need a helping hand in becoming the best version of ourselves. My practice consists of working with teenage and adult individuals that want to become stronger, feel better about themselves, and want to move past their past. I truly believe that our past holds us hostage and prevents us from being in, and enjoying, the present moments in life.

Sit down with a good psychotherapist and it can change your life. It changed mine. Maybe you are struggling with a seemingly unsolvable problem or a repeating pattern of behavior. You're not where you want to be in life or in work, you don't feel the way you want to feel, your relationships are troubled, or something seems to undermine your efforts. I work with adult individuals who feel stuck--sad, isolated, frightened, anxious, angry, confused, on the edge, in a panic, disconnected, hopeless, empty, unlovable. Sometimes you just need a hand finding the doorway to a better life.

We all face difficult issues and need someone to help us through these challenging times. Struggling with a relationship, anxiety, depression, bipolar, addiction, substance abuse, co-occurring disorders, work/school issues, life changes, marital, domestic and family issues or any other issues we are here to help you. 12-Step meetings may not be enough to overcome the underlying issues that lead to substance use and other disorders. If you're looking for extra support and guidance, we look forward to helping you achieve your goals. We offer a safe and supportive environment with an empathic therapist who understands.

As an empathic and non-judgmental psychologist with 13+ years in the field, I am passionate and love helping my clients progress toward optimal peace and wellness. I specialize in treating women, adults, teens and couples struggling with anxiety, stress management, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationships/dating issues and grief. Other focus: LGBT, healing past trauma, self-esteem issues, college/grad students, Executive Professionals. I actively work with you toward relief of your symptoms while we address the long-standing limiting beliefs and experiences that have been impacting your peace and wellbeing.
