Therapist

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Southern California, and have extensive experience in the mental health field. I have a strong and diverse background working both with veterans at the VA, and entertainment industry clients at the Entertainment Community Fund. I have been in private practice for the past several years. I enjoy helping adults at different stages to navigate life transitions and challenges. If you are a college student entering adulthood needing support, a young adult in your 20s or 30s trying to forge your path, or an older adult adjusting to retirement, I can offer skills, insight and a helping hand to empower your personal growth. I can work with you on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems and chronic health conditions, and also have specialized training to help you process trauma and address PTSD, often stemming from childhood and family experiences.

Samantha Houda

Therapist

Virtual • California


Some of the hardest things to carry are the ones that have become part of your daily routine. The stress that keeps building, the grief wrapped up in a medical diagnosis, the family dynamics that nobody talks about but everyone feels. I have 11+ years of experience helping adults navigate exactly those kinds of struggles: chronic illness, PTSD and trauma, relationship difficulties, and the kind of ongoing stress that quietly shapes how you see yourself and everything around you.

Have you ever heard the saying "the mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master?" Many people find themselves caught in patterns of thought that feel automatic and hard to step away from. Rather than trying to eliminate these thoughts, we change how you relate to them. This happens in two main ways. The first is through mindfulness. Not mindfulness as meditation or yoga, but as intentional awareness of your patterns of thinking and feeling. The second is values, meaning what matters most to you and what you want your life to stand for. These values serve as a compass to guide your decisions.

Therapist

Hi, I'm Anne. I'm a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who has been providing therapy to individuals, couples and families since 2013. I graduated from California Lutheran University in 2008 and worked in drug/alcohol treatment & with a school district in order to complete my intern hours after graduation. Right now, I most enjoy working with adults who want to work to find a new and brighter way to face life by dealing with past hurt and negative experiences, as well as any adults who feel they want guidance with typical life stressors and finding better ways to progress in life. My favorite approach to therapy currently is EMDR. I received training in this treatment modality in 2023 & have been finding it beneficial for my client's since I started using it during the training months. I also like to use a combination of CBT, solution-focused, person-focused, DBT & family systems theories in my sessions. I am an inquisitive therapist who likes to ask a lot of questions to get to know my clients & can also be sarcastic, challenging, funny & direct. I am also happy to work with clients looking for a Christian based therapist.
