Hello, my name is Jeannie Umanzor, and I am a DNP prepared Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Prctitioner (PMHNP-BC) with 8 years of experience in the field. For the past 8 years, I have been dedicated to working in a federally qualified health clinic serving the unhoused population. I have encountered some of the most complex illnesses, addictions and mentally ill patients. In my role, I have had the privilege of seeing a wide variety of diseases and mental health disorders. My passion for mental health is unwavering, and I firmly believe in a whole person, patient-centered approach to care. This approach allows me to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to all of my patients, ensuring that their physical and mental well-being are prioritized. My experience in working with diverse populations has equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to address the unique needs of each individual I encounter. I am committed to continually expanding my expertise and staying up-to-date with the latest developments in the field in order to provide the highest quality care possible.
I believe therapy is a space where you should feel heard, understood, and accepted for who you are. My role is not to tell you what choices to make, but to walk alongside you as you better understand yourself, explore what matters most to you, and find a path that feels right for you.
I value building a genuine connection with my clients and creating a space where you can be open and honest without fear of judgment. Together, we can work through the things that may be weighing on you and develop tools that help you feel more confident in navigating life, relationships, and the challenges that come your way.
I primarily work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties, including challenges with family, friendships, and romantic relationships. I have worked with youth and families since 2016 and have provided therapy since 2022. My experience also includes supporting individuals impacted by domestic violence and working in crisis settings, which has shaped my belief in meeting people with compassion, patience, and understanding during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
Most importantly, I believe you are the expert on your own life. My hope is to help you feel empowered to make choices that align with your beliefs, values, and the life you want to create.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who began her career in 2016 supporting children and families through the foster care system. In2024 I shifted my focus to working primarily with adults, and I now specialize in anxiety, depression, coping skills, and the life challenges that can feel overwhelming even when you are doing your best. I believe the fact that you are looking for therapy is already a win. Life brings on challenges and different seasons, and my goal is to help you focus on the moments you can control, develop positive coping skills, and work through past patterns getting in the way of the life you want. I offer telehealth sessions throughout California.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in community mental health, co-occurring substance use treatment, and residential care settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use challenges, mood disorders, relationship stress, and major life transitions.
I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and supported without judgement. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build insight, emotional stability, and healthier coping strategies.
I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and OCD in adolescents and adults. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring more than 20 years of nursing experience, including extensive work in critical care and neuro-trauma medicine. My approach combines evidence-based medication management, psychotherapy, and practical lifestyle interventions to help patients achieve meaningful and lasting improvement.
Welcome! Seeking help is the first step and sometimes the most difficult. Over the last several years, I have had the privilege to work with adults struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grief. My work has centered around helping adults process and express painful emotions that may never have been shared with others.
I am a somatic therapist specializing in trauma and relationship issues, and my focus is helping clients heal and integrate the mind/body/spirit connection to experience the deeper meanings and intentions of their life. I provide a warm, compassionate space for inner exploration so clients feel seen and accepted. Transformation and healing are then possible. I am a certified Brainspotting therapist and have level 1 training in Internal Family Systems (IFS).
I genuinely love helping people and being a source of support during the times when they need it most. I believe having someone who will truly listen, understand, and walk alongside you can make a meaningful difference, especially when life feels overwhelming, uncertain, or difficult to navigate on your own.
I'm a licensed psychotherapist and I've been working clinically since 2015. I use David Burns' TEAM-CBT approach (he has several great books you might be familiar with). However, sometimes CBT feels too focused on thoughts. In those cases, I tend to use DBT interventions which include more emotional awareness and regulation.
Life can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re juggling high expectations, major transitions, or the constant pressure to show up perfectly in every role you play.
I specialize in supporting teenagers, young professionals, and adults who struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, and navigating life’s many changes.
My work is grounded in behavioral therapy, and a firm belief that people can change. I prefer a flexible and collaborative approach that evolves as we work together. Though the foundation of my work is behavioral, I develop integrated treatment plans for each new client, drawing on other evidence-based modalities and new research.
I am a therapist with 7 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I consider it a privilege to be a part of my client’s personal growth and enjoy seeing individuals and families move toward creating a fulfilling life that they can move through with ease. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral issues and parenting issues.
