About
As someone who has experienced personal trauma and loss, I have an authentic understanding of how painful life circumstances can impact us, and I believe that building new life skills within a safe, compassionate space can empower us to heal, grow, and create meaningful change.
I’m Ghadia Ilham, MSW, ACSW, and I provide compassionate, person-centered therapy grounded in trauma-informed care. My clinical experience includes supporting adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, chronic illness and adjustment, life transitions, and emotional challenges. I work with clients who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain and are seeking a safe space to process their experiences, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen emotional well-being, and create meaningful change.
I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach, drawing from CBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to meet each client where they are. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, chronic illness and adjustment while developing coping skills, emotional awareness, and practical tools for lasting growth.
You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I’m here to offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, explore your experiences, and move toward greater confidence and well-being. When you’re ready, I invite you to take the next step and begin your journey toward meaningful change.

Everyone has the capacity to heal, and it is my honor to help you find your path back towards presence, passion, and fullness.
I’m Anna, an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW). I became a therapist after nearly a decade studying and teaching literature at universities. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing issues such as anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma/PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, relationship conflicts, and life transitions. I’m passionate about the mind-body connection and spirituality in psychotherapy, and enjoy supporting individuals with chronic illness/pain; body image issues; facing challenges in parenting or pregnancy; and those exploring religious/spiritual belief and/or trauma.
I empower you to find your own unique path to healing in mind, body, and spirit. I often use methods from ACT, DBT, MBCT, and CBT, especially those drawn on mindfulness traditions and somatic awareness. My approach is collaborative and trauma-informed. I am also EMDR-trained, using it to help clients process traumatic experiences big and small.
I arrive at each session in a spirit of openness, curiosity, and non-judgmental compassion. I will follow your lead, helping you explore thought patterns and emotional reactions that no longer serve you; gain insight into dynamics past and present; and develop habits and lifestyle adjustments to help you live more fully in between sessions.

I believe creativity can give us a language for experiences that are sometimes too difficult to put into words, and that everyone deserves a space where they feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted as they navigate grief, loss, and healing. I strive to create a compassionate and supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences through conversation, creativity, and self-expression while discovering their own path toward healing.
Hi, I’m Anna Mansour, ASW, and a therapist who believes in creating a warm, compassionate, and affirming space for clients to feel seen and supported. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating grief and loss, trauma, identity development, emotional regulation, and life transitions. My approach incorporates evidence-based practices alongside play, art, and creative expression to help clients process difficult experiences, build coping skills, and feel more empowered in their lives.
I offer a compassionate, creative approach that allows clients to explore difficult emotions in ways that feel natural and meaningful. Through art, play, conversation, and reflection, I help clients process grief and loss, make meaning of their experiences, and develop tools for navigating change while honoring their individual journey.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin. I’m here to meet you where you are, without judgment, and support you along the way. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

I believe that every person deserves to be seen, heard, and welcomed without judgement, and I strive to meet each person where they are in order to empower them to feel confident in shaping their own path.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW) with a Masters from Cal State Fullerton. I have experience with children, adolescents, and adults faced with anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, poor self esteem, and loss. My goal is to create a safe space for all to feel supported and empowered to create the change they wish to see.
I utilize a client centered and strengths based approach to promote trust and collaboration that works towards long term change. I also support clients in identifying and changing negative thinking patterns, practice mindfulness, and creating positive coping skills so they may feel confident navigating future challenges.
No matter your age, race, background, or circumstances, I believe everyone deserves to feel supported, respected, and heard. It would be a privilege to walk alongside you and support you as you navigate your own unique journey.

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
