I am Yadira Ramirez and I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the last 9 years, having received my Master of Social Work from California State University Los Angeles. My life and professional experiences have made me an empathetic, compassionate, non-judgmental, and relatable therapist.

Please note I am fluent in Spanish.

My passion is to help those who feel weary and lost. It is difficult to be present and live a fulfilling life when the chains of past events hold us back. As hard as we run and distract ourselves, we also run away from our sense of self. Avoiding pain can grow into unhealthy behaviors and addiction. My intention is to help build a foundation for a meaningful life. Core pieces of the foundation include insight, communication, emotions, and connection. These pieces are vital to maintaining healthy relationships and attaining the love we want. Other important areas to consider are cultural identity, spirituality, and our past.

Specializing in resolving loss and trauma, I've been a psychologist for 25+ years. I journey with clients through the tumultuous feelings of grief and trauma to a place of freedom, hope, and new capacity for closeness--experiencing with them the tears and laughter, "Aha's!" and "Oh No's!" that lead to change, growth and liking themselves and life. For helpful, hopeful blogs on resolving depression, grief and anxiety as well as tips on how good therapy works, see www.drmaribeth.com.

I practice a style of therapy that is both strengths based and solution focused. It is my belief that people have within themselves and the environment the ability and resources to heal and lead meaningful lives. Traumatic life events have the potential to keep individuals feeling stuck. It can prevent us from realizing our full potential and maintaining a healthy self -esteem. During the course of treatment EMDR therapy may be utilized to resolve those issues and facilitate solutions that work best for you based on your own life experience, beliefs and personal strengths.

I believe in the adaptive healing power that is innate in all of us. A large part of our negative reactions and self-defeating behavior come from the unconscious, that is outside of our reasoning and willpower. By tapping directly into the unconscious and changing the way some memories are stored in the brain, we can stop reacting and begin responding in an adaptive manner. As a licensed psychologist, I have worked with children and adolescents and their families for the past 20 years. I would love to guide you in your journey of self-discovery and wellness.
