Maryana Helu

Maryana Helu

Therapist

Virtual • California


My name is Maryana Helu and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I have been licensed since 2016, with a Master's in Marital and Family Therapy from Loma Linda University.

My work centers on adults whose childhood experiences resurface in their partner, parenting, or work relationships. What shows up as depression, anxiety, or stress in your day-to-day life often has roots that go back what you learned about relationships as a child. Traumatic childhood experiences have a way of coming up in the present, especially when you are under a lot of pressure or stress.

My goal is to help you process what is coming up at the source, not just manage the symptoms. My practice is telehealth-based and serves clients throughout California.

I look forward to seeing if we are a good fit.

Hello, I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) serving clients in California.

While I received my higher education in VA, I completed my supervised hours in CA. I began at Trinity Ministries Group as an Associate in 2019 and became licensed in 2024. I will be meeting with clients at Trinity Ministries through online sessions.

Areas of interest that are dear to me are working with military members and their families, eating disorders and their families, and perinatal clients.

Sarah Chavez

Sarah Chavez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with over 10 years of experience in various mental health roles supporting teens, adults, and families through stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative—therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all. I use a mix of approaches like CBT, trauma-focused care, DBT skills, mindfulness, solution-focused work, family systems, and humanistic therapy, tailoring sessions to what actually works for you. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and more confident navigating real-life challenges.

As a first-generation Latina, breaking generational stigma around mental health is deeply important to me. I’m passionate about providing culturally responsive care that honors identity, family values, and lived experience while creating safe space for healing and growth.

Pamela Yunga

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Torrance, CA


You deserve care that is thoughtful, evidence-based, and deeply personalized.

My approach is collaborative and holistic. I look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of your life - including stressors, relationships, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, diagnostic clarity, or a more integrative approach to healing, we will create a plan tailored specifically to you.

Clients often describe my style as compassionate, thorough, and grounded. I believe in clear communication, shared decision-making, and ensuring you feel informed and empowered about your treatment options. My goal is not simply symptom reduction - it is helping you restore balance, confidence, and a meaningful quality of life.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. Together, we will build a path toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
