Jeanette Lopez-Urbina, LCSW #66090
Choosing the right therapist is an important decision and, in considering me, I would like you to know that I am committed to providing a level of care where I place priority in providing you with an experience where you may feel listened to, supported, and being in partnership with me towards your path to finding relief & wellness.
I have dedicated myself to providing services extensively to youth and families, especially in the area of trauma, which includes addressing issues, such as gang involvement, sexual exploitation, immigration trauma, and issues related oppression, racism, and acculturation issues. I am a bilingual Salvadoran-American practitioner who enjoys practicing mostly from a social justice, relational, and psychodynamic approach. In addition to my work in Private Practice, I am an adjunct faculty at a local mental health professional institute and provide trainings throughout the Bay Area on topics related to the LatinX population, trauma informed care, and cultural responsive services.
Zasharah Araujo,

Supervised by Jeanette Lopez-Urbina, LCSW #66090
I am a bilingual, bicultural associate MFT/APCC who has worked with children and families and provided services to LatinX, multicultural and Spanish-speaking families. I work from a psychodynamic, trauma-informed, culturally responsive lens. My hope is that I will be able to provide therapeutic services that will provide opportunity for reflection, insight, and growth, in order to evolve and heal from current and/or past experiences. I am a Bay Area native who takes pride in giving back and supporting my clients in their own personal journeys.
Jasmine Gonzalez,
LMFT#92237
Welcome! My name is Jasmine, and I know first-hand that finding the right therapist to work through life’s challenges can be hard; self-reflection and becoming vulnerable with a therapist can be even harder. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (#92237). As a bicultural, bilingual cis woman of Mexican American descent who was also the first in my family to graduate from college and become a professional, my experiences inform my holistic approach to therapy. I use a client-centered and relational approach with an equity and social justice lens; I believe that we all have an innate capacity to change, grow, and build resiliency.
I hold many years of experience working with diverse East Bay communities throughout the lifespan. Issues that I am especially skilled with are: the first generation experience (in school or professional life), parentification (role reversal where a child must act as a caretaker of their parent or siblings), anxiety, depression, work and career exploration, intergenerational trauma, and non-violent communication. I look forward to working with you on your path towards healing.
