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.

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 am an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW) with a Masters from Cal State Fullerton.

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.
