I'm Chloe Ragusa, an LCSW based in SoCal. I am an eclectic therapist and use techniques from many different schools of thought to provide care tailored to each of my client's needs. I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community and am proud to be part of it. I use an eclectic approach to therapy. Each person is a unique and complex blend of emotions and experiences, and I believe the techniques I use should be fitted to the person rather than taking a "one size fits all" approach. I like to let my client set the tone, and weave technique into our session so that the focus is on the person and not the treatment type.

Hi. My name is Luis Maimoni. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in relationships of all kinds. Relationships with partners, with friends and family, and with co-workers are vital parts of our lives. When our relationships are great, we feel great. When our relationships are "having difficulties" or "experiencing challenges", so are we. If you're reading this, my guess is that one or more of your relationships is not in the "great" category. I can relate.

Are emotional roadblocks hindering you from being your authentic self? Are you overwhelmed by past traumatic experiences? Have you always taken care of everyone but yourself? My ideal client is ready to release that mental/emotional pause button (sadness, anger, regret etc.) and engage with life. This includes individuals, couples, family units, or a parent who notices the emotional challenges/struggles of their child and they are seeking help for them. I understand that ones quality of life starts with being emotionally and mentally sound.

You're doing it all - online yoga classes, meal-prepping, killing it at work, and making the best sourdough starter on this side of the Colorado River. But when you hit the pillow at night - there's a loneliness, a deep dissatisfaction, anxiety, a stirring discontentment. On the surface, you've got your shit together, but deep down - your life is being hijacked by your self-judgment, anxiety, negative beliefs, and the inner saboteur. Are you ready to get out of your own way so that you can finally enjoy relationships, work, and family? Your heart wants to be held and we were never meant to do this alone.

I entered this field because I want to help people experience more joy, connection, and freedom in their lives. Life is going to hand us difficult things and some of us carry extra burdens. Often, we get stuck. Some of us need to get out of our own way. Others need to redirect away from the destructive patterns we keep repeating. Or maybe we just need guidance in finding solutions that will bring us some relief from the struggles we feel trapped beneath. There are ALWAYS new skills we can learn and action we can make to improve the quality of our experiences and outcomes. Sometimes we can’t or shouldn’t do this work alone.

Most of the individuals and couples I work with are all experiencing some version of the same thing: unmet emotional and/or physical needs. The same fights over and over again. Feeling frustrated because their significant other just doesn't understand! Are you walking on eggshells? Having the same fight over and over again? Wondering if things will ever change?

Looks like you have reached the tipping point! Whatever has you searching for help, you're already creating change simply by being here. Sometimes all you need is to learn and practice more effective ways of communicating. Sometimes it's an issue of healing from catastrophic wounds, but it's often a complex and intricate combination of things. Regardless of the reason(s), you wouldn't be searching if you didn't already know you may benefit from personal therapy. I firmly believe that most human suffering is learned, and anything that has been learned can be unlearned with the right support.
