If you opt into trying ti online, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based treatment.
Coronado means crowned on in Spanish and that is why it is nicknamed the Crown City. It is actually an island that is connected to California by a small piece of land called a tombolo and is considered a vacation town. How could you feel sad if you live in a vacation town? Easy.
Depression has nothing to do with the town you live in. It can be a chemical imbalance in the brain, hereditary, or it could even be caused by an underlying physical illness. Luckily, the City of Coronado has a plethora of counselors who can help with depression and other mental health conditions.

Our challenges can sometimes be simple, but other times, they can be like puzzles. Multiple factors and layers can play a part to produce complicated issues that are difficult to unravel. Ultimately, our mental health boils down to our world-view and how we perceive the events we experience. It’s important to remember that it’s not that our problems are unsolvable, it’s just that the solutions haven’t been identified or manifested yet. Further exploration may be needed. I am able to use a variety of treatment methods to support you in creating the life you want. I have my LCSW in Texas and California and have worked primarily in mental health and healthcare. I’d love to join you on your path towards a fulfilled and abundant life.
Galina Zlotnikova
I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in California. I have an MA in counseling psychology from Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (now Sofia University) in Palo Alto, CA. I practice a holistic and somatic form of psychotherapy. That means that in my work I integrate traditional focus on thoughts and feelings as well as the body and the nervous system. I have extensive training in Sensorimotor psychotherapy aimed at helping people overcome effects of developmental trauma and PTSD and develop inner resources for emotional well-being and self-regulation. I have pursued this training, because research and clinical experience show that trauma, especially early childhood trauma is often a root cause of many challenges that we all face at one time or another in our lives, including relational, family and social conflicts, depression, anxiety, addiction, mental and physical illness and many others. I specialize in working with people living with chronic and invisible illness and their caregivers. Both through my work at a hospital and county clinic settings and personal experience I am familiar with the plight of people who are disabled because of chronic illness, or are caregivers to someone living with chronic illness. Many people live with debilitating and/or gradually worsening physical symptoms caused by a variety of medical conditions that often make them unable to work full time, engage in social activities, or sometimes leave their homes or even their beds. Physical illness is often accompanied by emotional distress from living with difficult symptoms, chronic pain, fatigue, uncertainty about the future and erosion of social connections and intimate relationships. People living with these circumstances for a long time may experience gradual disappearing from society and often feel “invisible”. If that has been your experience, I am here to provide support and advocacy for your journey towards regaining your health. Additionally, as a first generation immigrant from the former Soviet Union I understand the challenges of acculturation, loss of home, and the legacy of transgenerational trauma that many first generation immigrants have to face adjusting to life in the USA, and the long lasting effects of this significant life transition. I love helping people develop resilience and discover ways to live fulfilling lives no matter their history or current circumstances. Foundation of my work is in the warmth of human connection and respect I have for my clients, their lives, experience and wisdom. I offer support and practical tools to deal with stress, overwhelm, anxiety, grief, loss, depression, anger, and difficulties with relationships. My goal is for us together to discover what what works for you and to support you in using this knowledge and any new skills you learn in the course of our work together in your life going forward.
Aviva Euripides
Hello, I am Aviva Euripides and I am pleased to meet you here. Our clinical work involves tracking and assessing how it assists you in meeting your goals. This solution focused work is thus overall practical but is rooted in academic and clinical rigor. I graduated from the University of California at Berkeley and attended New College of California where the focus was on meeting the clinical needs of a diverse community with relevance and meaning. I have supervised and trained clinicians in treatment settings ranging from the counselor's office to acute mental health facilities. This has led to a deep understanding of clinical work. My specializations include depression, anxiety, life changes, self esteem, career and relationships. These are all human issues and are in need sometimes of clinical intervention as a tool and resource. The work begins with me listening carefully to where the pieces are at in your puzzle at this time. This allows for us to consider rearrangement and repositioning to best work for you. I have extensive experience providing counseling via telephone and online platforms and thus feel quite comfortable doing so. While this may be new to some it may resemble other aspects of life online in significant ways. Like counseling, it just takes some getting used to. I typically have appointments available via live chat between 10 am and 4 pm Monday-Friday and appointments available early mornings and weekends via video/phone session.

I believe in you and your stories. We each hold the power to define our story, identity, and sexuality. Sex, love, gender, relationships, and romance—these topics can be tricky to navigate and often uncomfortable to address. I am here to assist you (and your partners) in tackling these concepts and conversations with affirmation, validation, and a little humor. I am dedicated to helping you develop the skills needed to live your most authentic life. As a member of the LGBTQ, non-monogamous, nudist, kink, and neurodivergent communities, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with expressing your true self. Navigating these complexities can be difficult, but you are not alone—I am here to support you on your journey toward a more fulfilling and joyful life. Together, we will address issues by focusing on your successes and how you want your story to be understood. Whether you need support with gender, men's and women's issues, non-monogamy, kink and BDSM dynamics, relationship concerns, societal stressors, or LGBTQ concerns, I provide a safe space for exploration within the spectrums of Gender, Sexual, and Relationship Diversity (GSRD). I am trained in Sex Therapy, including Gender-Affirming Sex Therapy for those reacquainting with their bodies during or after gender transition. My approach is informed by social justice. I draw from Narrative therapy, postmodern, and sex-positive feminist theory. I believe the problem is the problem and that you are never the problem, and that you are the expert of your own life and the shared expert of your own relationship. I am an active observer who offers kind feedback to help you establish the preferred life you want to be living. I am here to help you highlight your power and navigate life's challenges. I am exceptionally excited to work with you!

Sometimes it takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take those steps, I am here to support you. I am a Clinical Psychologist practicing on the BetterHelp internet platform. My approach to becoming a psychotherapist has been influenced by many years of formal education in psychology, exposure to multiple clinical training perspectives, and perhaps most importantly, my inherent curiosity toward understanding how and why I, and my fellow humans, behave and feel the way we do! When I begin working with you, I will gently attempt to understand how you are feeling both physically and emotionally. You and I will discover how you are feeling in a given moment, with emphasis on the importance of remembering that "feelings change." This will help if, or when, you may feel overwhelmed and alone with depression, anxiety, loneliness, or sadness, etc. You will gradually begin to notice that your feelings, and relationships with family and friends can improve! Over all, this process will enable you to develop greater appreciation for yourself, which naturally leads to greater enjoyment and attachment to others. If this description of how I work as a therapist resonates with what you are looking for as a client, let’s meet in the mode with which you are most comfortable (Text, Chat, or Virtual) and see how it goes. I look forward to meeting you! Dr. Sam Hopper
