Our Team

LPCC No. 14498

Following a 35-year career in corporate America, I pursued my lifelong dream of working with others in a relationally healing capacity. I received a master’s degree in clinical counseling from The Townsend Institute at Concordia University and an undergraduate degree from Seattle Pacific University. Through my education as well as through experience counseling others over the years, both in a lay and professional capacity, I have witnessed the transformative power of safe relationships in the healing process. My passion is to help relieve burdens and remove obstacles in life that keep us from realizing our full potential and becoming all we are meant to be. My focus is on helping to heal wounds that hinder our ability to give and receive love and journeying with the grieving toward renewed hope. I work with clients in the areas of self-esteem and worthiness, empowerment and fulfillment in career and personal life, and I relate to many phases of a woman’s life, including single, married, divorced and remarriage, and widowed. Over the years I have worked with grief and loss, anxiety, depression, irrational thought patterns and other mental and emotional health issues. Whether working through problematic relationships or situations or dealing with long-held irrational and negative core beliefs, my style is very relational and focuses on individual needs and personal growth toward mental, emotional and spiritual health. It would be my privilege to meet with you for a consultation to determine your short or long-term needs.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist no. 149534 

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. My hope is to offer a space where your most authentic self feels seen, known, and accepted. I believe that while relationships can bring our deepest pain, they also hold our greatest potential for healing. Through trust, collaboration, and genuine connection, therapy can become a space to explore your story, find understanding, and nurture lasting growth. 

My approach is warm, grounded, and emotionally attuned—inviting laughter, tears, and everything in between. I work with individuals navigating the echoes of the past, life transitions, or seasons of uncertainty that feel hard to name. Often, what we need most in these moments is an empathetic presence and time to explore what we are truly feeling. It’s an honor to walk alongside individuals as they rediscover their sense of self and create relationships rooted in security and authenticity. 

Part of my work has involved supporting children, teens, and families through the joys and challenges of growing up in both the private practice setting as well as on campus at K-12 schools. My work is rooted in attachment theory and neuroscience, and I creatively and relationally tailor therapy to meet each child’s unique needs. I’m passionate about early intervention and helping families build strong, connected relationships from the start. 

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in ministry and non-profit settings, including serving as a house parent for teenage girls in foster care. Those experiences deepened my empathy for caregivers, parents, and helpers—people who give so much to others that they sometimes lose sight of themselves. I treasure the opportunity to support those learning how to refill their cup and care for themselves with the same compassion they so freely give.

Welcome! I am so glad you’re here. My passion is to help people live authentic, meaningful, and connected lives. It’s an honor to therapeutically partner with people on their journey to health and wholeness. I received my MA in Clinical Psychology: Emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University and am currently a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist. I have experience in working with minors, adults, and families with a wide range of issues and specialize in working with trauma, mood disorders, parent-child relationships, identity formation, and spirituality. To bolster my work with these specialties, I have received training in evidence-based approaches including Gottman Level 1 and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Using warmth and empathy, I provide space to explore relationships and process experiences that have left people feeling disconnected from the lives they desire. I address areas of deep hurt holistically by incorporating cognitive, relational, somatic, and trauma-informed interventions to restore clients’ connectedness on every level. I look forward to partnering with you to create a safe, compassionate space for you to experience growth and healing!

As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about supporting individuals,  children,  adolescents, and families as they navigate life’s challenges and build meaningful, secure relationships.  Rooted in  attachment-based relational approach, my work centers on helping clients gain deeper insight into their emotional worlds, strengthen connection with themselves and others, and foster lasting patterns of safety and trust. I create a collaborative therapeutic space where clients feel seen, valued and empowered to explore their story.

I earned my MA in Clinical Psychology: Emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University. I desire to help clients understand how early relationships shape patterns of connection- and how healing and change are possible. I  bring a background of experience working with college students, as well as church ministry, offering support for those navigating faith and community dynamics. As a mother, I bring a grounded, compassionate presence to my work with parents and families. Whether supporting a child through big emotions or helping couples and individuals move toward deeper connection, I offer a space that is warm, steady, and attuned.

When I went through my own therapeutic journey, it was as if someone handed me a set of keys—keys that unlocked healing I didn’t know was possible, freedom from wounds I’d carried for years, and entirely new ways of moving through the world.

That experience changed everything. It’s why I became a therapist—and it’s what I hope to offer you.

I work with adults, teens, college students, couples, and families navigating life’s most pivotal moments: anxiety that won’t quiet down, grief that lingers longer than expected, trauma that still shapes how you show up, relationships that feel harder than they should, or the simple question of "what comes next"?

My approach is relational and integrative. I meet you exactly where you are—no judgment, no agenda—and together we discover which doors need opening. I have a particular heart for teens navigating new changes, young adults launching into new chapters, couples preparing to build a life together, and anyone wrestling with questions of meaning, faith, or identity.

What I want you to know: therapy can be life-changing. Sometimes, it’s life-saving. And you don’t have to walk this road alone.

Callandra earned her Master’s in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University. She practices at The Paved Road in Newport Beach, California, under the supervision of Doug Hutchinson, LMFT.

Whether this is your first time in therapy or you've been on this journey before, I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the step to prioritize your healing is both courageous and meaningful.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming or even frightening to face head-on. But I believe therapy offers us a sacred and safe space—a space to summon the courage to explore even the deepest and most difficult parts of ourselves.

As a licensed therapist, I hold a deep belief that vulnerability is the gateway to transformation. I'm passionate about helping people feel more deeply connected—to themselves and to others—so they can build healthier, more authentic relationships.

My approach is holistic and integrative, focusing on the connection between mind, body, and soul. Together, we’ll work on cultivating self-compassion, awareness, and acceptance.

I specialize in:

• EMDR and trauma work (including religious and spiritual trauma)

• Racial identity exploration

• Navigating life transitions and feeling "stuck"

• Relationship challenges

• Working with teens/adolescence 

I believe in a collaborative, individualized approach to therapy—one that helps you move toward your goals and find deeper fulfillment. Sessions may include talk therapy, mindfulness practices, or therapeutic exercises tailored to your needs.

Whether you're going through a tough season, feeling stuck, or simply want someone to process life with, I'm here to support you. Let’s walk through this together—with courage, vulnerability, and hope for transformation.

If you'd like to connect, I offer a free 10-minute consultation. Feel free to reach out by phone, text, or email (linked below). Sessions are available both in-person and via telehealth. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #155613) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC # 14614) supervised by Susan Beisner. 

I seek to step into the trenches with those navigating the pain of relationship distress, trauma, identity issues, anxiety, and loss, believing that healing begins when another bears witness to our deepest fears, hopes, and longings. With a psychodynamic lens, I help untangle the unconscious patterns that shape relationships and foster cycles of disconnection. For both individual and couples therapy, the work of understanding, creating safety, and accepting support can lead to profound transformation. Therapy is a space to slow down, process deeply, and step into greater awareness and healing—and I believe it’s work worth doing.

I have specialized training in anxiety, spirituality and identity development, and emotionally focused couples therapy. I am particularly interested in identity, shame, couple’s therapy, pre-marital therapy, anxiety, spirituality, loss, intimacy issues, trauma, and personal depth work. I work with teens, young adults, couples, and adults.

Let’s see if we could work together toward your goals. Whether you are looking for yourself, you and your partner, or your child—reach out. I’d love to see if it’s a good fit. I am currently taking new clients for virtual and in person appointments. 

I bring the insight of a physician, the heart of a therapist, and the wisdom of a spiritual guide. I walk alongside people from all walks of life on their journey toward healing, grounded in the biopsychosocial–spiritual model and shaped by my global life experiences. As a Marriage and Family Therapist Associate with backgrounds in medicine and theology, I offer a deeply integrative approach to care. My work is trauma-informed, spiritually sensitive, and culturally attuned. I believe healing is a sacred journey of becoming whole when mind, body, and spirit come into alignment, empowering you to live with clarity, purpose, and peace.
