It's so nice to meet you

Hi there, I'm Kami Guevara, a Registered Associate Marriage & Family Therapist. 

​

I was born  in the beautiful and multicultural environment of Hawaii, which instilled in me a love for different cultures and perspectives. Moving to southern California during my childhood, and coming from a multicultural home myself, I understand the importance of honoring and valuing diversity in all its forms. Being a first-generation college graduate, I am incredibly proud of my journey in education, and being able to use it to help others experiencing mental health struggles.

 

My passion for helping others led me to work in mental health with the incredible individuals and families of the United States Air Force AFSOC Airmen. It was through this experience that I realized the power of therapy and its ability to heal and transform lives. I went on to complete my Master's in Clinical Psychology, specializing in Marriage & Family Therapy.

 

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working in various settings, including an Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization Program for Eating Disorders, as well as a, internship at an Intensive Outpatient Program for Adolescent Substance Abuse. These experiences have shaped me and deepened my understanding of the unique challenges faced by many individuals and their families.

 

My therapeutic approach encompasses various modalities, with a particular focus on EMDR therapy. I strongly believe in the principles of anti-diet and Health at Every Size, valuing each person's unique journey towards physical and mental well-being. Additionally, I bring a multicultural lens to my practice, celebrating the richness of our different backgrounds.

 

Above all, I pride myself on being a empathetic and inquisitive therapist. I strive to provide a warm and friendly space where you can explore your challenges and discover your own strengths. No matter what you're going through, I'm here to support you. Let's begin this journey together towards healing and growth.
