Hello! I am Dr. Efrain Zepeda. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Social Worker. In the past 23 years of working as a mental health professional, one important lesson I have learned is that the most powerful therapeutic intervention is found in the interpersonal connection that occurs in the client-therapist relationship. Together we can analyze the past to co-create a new meaning with the goal of achieving healing. I strongly believe that therapy is not about labeling or judging, but rather about personal discovery.

My clients are couples who want to feel confident without punishing themselves and build sturdy and sustainable self-trust. They desire closeness and the ability to lean on each other without being codependent. They value autonomy in their relationship while generating shared future dreams and meaning. We will navigate and explore the meaning behind feelings, behaviors, and challenges and observe possible differences between intent and impact. You can expect couples therapy with me to be tailored to you and your partner, structured with flexibility, and clear with tangible steps for the communication and dynamic change you want.

You’d say that you are observant, conscientious, and driven. You pride yourself in your successes so far but struggle to take credit for them. You're hard on yourself but the thought of self-forgiveness or compassion brings up guilt. You're really good at being there for others and notice not receiving the same back. Self-doubt and loneliness keep you up at night and bleed into anxieties about work, relationships, and your kids if you’re a parent. You're not looking for temporary bandaids and believe sustainable healing is continuous and worth investing in. In relationships, you desire restoration of connection with your partner.

I specialize in folks who are struggling with the impact of past relational trauma. This means you might have had a difficult relationship with a parent, struggled with friendships, or have a hard time feeling like you belong or are "good enough." This often shows up in your life today as chronic anxiety and worry, depression and low self-esteem, as well as unfulfilling relationships or a lack of direction in life. You also struggle with difficult emotions, noticing yourself getting triggered by seemingly mundane moments. Overall, you're feeling lost in life and unsure of how to get past this.

Life is complicated, and often very difficult. My goal is to help you deal with that. Relationships are so, so important to us yet they’re the hardest thing we do. Sometimes the people that love us the most, hurt us the most. If you feel that you need help in understanding relationships, you're dealing with anxiety or depression, you want to improve your communication, or you simply need a place to be heard, I encourage you to try therapy.

Hopeless, lost, depressed, overwhelmed, anxious? Maybe you feel like it's all your fault. It's easy to feel like there's something wrong with us when we need help, that we're not supposed to be vulnerable, that we're supposed to tough it out. Sometimes the bravest thing we can do is ask for help. There may be no perfect point where we can land on spectrums of intelligence, sexuality, gender, personality, or any of the identities we use to define ourselves. But our ability to move across these spectrums may make the difference between us feeling stuck in our day-to-day lives and being able to grow and change when we need to the most.

There is significant strength in seeking support and guidance when you need it. My clients are often those who reach a point of feeling lost or overwhelmed and understandably cannot move forward on their own. They might feel disconnected from themselves, feel stuck due to past experiences, or recognize that the way they are living their life does not align with what truly makes them happy.

Don’t recognize yourself in the mirror? Feeling out of integrity with who you really are? Struggling to come into your identity with confidence? Isolated and hopeless, or lost in your relationships? I deeply understand how painful these challenges are, and how awful it is to be misunderstood. As a queer, sober woman I've worked through many of these challenges myself. This is why I specialize in working with young adults, adolescents and couples. My goal as a transpersonal counselor is to guide you toward self-realization and freedom from the weight of your past, expanding beyond the traditional western framework of therapy.

If you're worried about your teen, I am ready to help. Having spent years working with young adults and adolescents who are struggling, I am skilled in providing support in a caring, non-judgmental way. Together I work with clients to lay down the groundwork of self-compassion to build healthier thinking, behaviors, and relationships. Over time, my teen clients have more insight and skills to use in their daily lives. My experiences working in residential substance abuse and eating disorder facilities have helped me connect with teens and develop an arsenal of skills to assist even the most withdrawn adolescent.
