My name is Jonah Givelber. I am a licensed social worker with many years of experience working with children and their families. Using kindness, support, and humor I try to guide my clients toward a resolution of their problems. I have worked with many children experiencing trouble following directions at school and at home. I have worked with many clients impacted by ADHD and anger-management issues. Many of the children I’ve worked with struggled with low self-esteem and feelings of hopelessness.

At Brighter Future, we are are passionate about helping kids to grow, learn, and heal so that they can experience a full and joyful life. Your kiddos and teens are uniquely special and I want to lessen their struggles so everyone can see that, including them! I truly believe that investing in therapy will create a lasting, positive impact for them, and for you. It may be time to make the decision to begin therapy for you or your child if they have: significant life changes; poor attention and concentration; traumatic events; defiant behavior; frequent worrying; depressed mood; issues with peers; or challenges with school.

Life doesn't have to be as hard as you are making it. You think you are doing what you are suppose to do but things aren't working the way you thought it would. You're feeling frustrated, irritated and sometimes ready to give up/ You think you've tried everything to make things work but it seems you're getting the opposite of what you want. You are blaming yourself. You are blaming others. But still nothing is working and at this point you feel unhappy, unsupported and exhausted. Life and relationships are not working out and you are at a loss of what to do. You just want to know how to fix it and get more of what you truly want.

Are you stuck trying to figure out how to feel "better"? I know what it's like to feel alone in what you're going through. Let me be the therapist to be alongside you in your healing journey. Common issues I work with but are not limited to, include anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, school-related issues, self-esteem, perfectionism, relationship issues, and relational and generational traumas. I am calm, empathic, open minded, and use my sense of humor. I strive to make my clients feel seen and heard through providing a positive and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship.

Anxiety can show up in many different ways in our life. It can make us work harder to prove ourselves or to have an unrealistic standard for ourselves. It can immobilize us and make us afraid to take any risks because we are fearful of potential outcomes. It can impact our relationships by leading to caretaking or people pleasing. It can lead us to try to control different areas of our lives and to avoid situations when we feel out of control. It may impact our ability to take care of ourselves, including effecting sleep and eating. Avoiding or attempting to manage anxiety can take a significant amount of time and energy.

Discovering ourselves can raise different emotions because as humans we tend to wear a mask to appear to others differently. Perhaps, we wear a masks as shields to protect us from others hurting us or wear masks because we are fearful to show who we really are as individuals. Are you are willing to heal those open wounds that continuously hurt you and stop you from moving forward? Do you want to stop listening to your inner voice and stop judging yourself (no one judges you more than yourself). This process could definitely be painful and it is hard work; however, you can make some changes if you are willing to do so.

I work best with anyone who is struggling to understand what the world is all about, why are we(me as a human/person) here on the earth, what is our/my purpose, how can I be happy and fulfilled, what are people all about, etc. The most difficult thing we will all be faced with is how do we deal/cope with people!

Hi, I’m Sierra! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I’m constantly evolving in this field to ensure I provide the most safe and supportive environment for my clients. I have extensive training and experience working with a multitude of diagnoses and life problems, my focus is being a tool to help you along your healing journey. I’ve worked with teens, young and older adults that struggle with symptoms of depression, anxiety, mania, trauma, and substance use.

Hello, my name is Jennifer Delgadillo and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 5 years of experience helping clients experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorder, and helping them to heal from traumatic experiences. I work with the young adult population and teenagers. I am comfortable working with veterans. I use Cognitive Behavior therapy and have been trained in trauma, and Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT). I provide a holding environment where patients feel comfortable sharing their emotions and processing maladaptive behaviors.

No matter what you are facing, the experience of being seen, heard, and understood are just as important as the skills you learn to navigate times of anxiety, depression, feeling lost, confused, needing to recover from trauma, or just plain overwhelmed. In working through these painful places, people experience me as being present with them in it; as caring, and compassionate, while jointly working to identify and address the individual or relational issues contributing to their current difficulty. It is a privilege to journey with you as you reclaim your authentic self, your power, and reestablished personal and relational health.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, loneliness, stress, guilt, grief, disappointment, sadness, displaced anger, intimacy issues, trouble with communication, disconnection in your relationships, being overwhelmed, or just a feeling of being stuck? Do you wonder if life could feel better? Now more than ever people are feeling uncertain about the future and wonder how to connect to others so they don't feel lonely and isolated. Not addressing these worries lead to more disconnect, sadness and feelings of aloneness. Talking to a therapist can help you start to feel better and not have to deal with these issues on your own.

For over thirty-five years I have been immersed in helping children, adolescents, and adults change the dysfunctional attitudes and relationship patterns that have interfered with their ability to live in fulfilling ways. My focus with clients is on promoting their psychological healing and development, integrating their whole person--mind, body, and spirit. I am passionately committed to supporting others on their courageous journeys from woundedness to wisdom.

I have years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families within the schools, community non-profits and in their homes. My experience consists of assisting individuals coping with issues of abuse, trauma, life stressors, depression, fear, anger along with other emotional challenges. If you're looking for support and guidance through a challenging situation, I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your goals. I understand that at times seeking therapy is a challenging and scary experience but it is also a brave decision to make; it is usually your first step to healing and getting the help you need.

As a 2nd through 4th generation Mexican-American, first generation college graduate, and eldest daughter, I am passionate about the healing and restoration of myself, community, and those seeking to reconnect with themselves. I love working with people who are ready to put in the work, are in the beginning stages of their healing journey or are looking for someone who can provide insight as they continue to explore areas they’ve yet to uncover. I believe each person is the expert of their own story and my role is to serve as a support as they meet themselves on a deeper level and find meaning in their experiences.

Often, individuals enter therapy feeling overwhelmed by various stressors in their lives. These stressors can manifest in different forms, such as life transitions (work, school, loss, relocation), challenges in relationships, parenting, dealing with a loved one's illness or disability, financial strain, exposure to community violence, housing issues, & more. Many individuals may not initially realize the profound impact these stressors can have on their overall health. Therapy provides a safe & confidential space for self-discovery, reflection, and the development of coping strategies to navigate life's challenges.

While I believe that all of us have the strength to overcome our own struggles, I also believe that therapy makes that process easier. With professional help, you can overcome issues with less time, less strain on your relationships, and less impact on your overall well-being. I personally and professionally, believe in the power of this process, and look forward to meeting you where you are to face your struggles together.
