Bianca Garibay

Bianca Garibay

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am an LCSW who is passionate about helping individuals navigate anxiety, trauma, and life transitions while building a stronger sense of self. I specialize in working with Women of Color, Millennials, and Gen Z individuals who often feel pressure to appear strong and put together on the outside while struggling internally with self-doubt, stress, or past experiences.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Some have grown up in chaotic or emotionally challenging environments and are now ready to understand how those experiences continue to impact their relationships, confidence, and overall well-being.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered.

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to have a therapist who is truly in your corner, celebrating your wins while holding space for your most difficult chapters?

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work, I’ve spent my career navigating the complex intersections of mental health and substance use, and I’ve learned that the most powerful tool for change is an affirming, open-minded partnership. I’m here to offer more than just clinical expertise; I’m here to provide an empowering environment where your identity and experiences are validated without judgment. My background has taught me that resilience is often a quiet force, and my goal is to help you amplify that strength so you can navigate life’s challenges with a renewed sense of agency and hope.

Michael Christian Cilnis

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • California


Therapy is serious work, but it doesn’t always have to feel heavy. Real change happens in a strong, trusting relationship where you feel safe, supported, and maybe even able to laugh along the way. I help clients struggling with self-image and self-esteem, and am especially passionate about working with people in all stages of recovery—whether newly sober or years into sobriety. Additionally, I'm EMDR trained and use this modality to guide clients in processing past traumatic experiences that negatively impact daily life. I also hold an MBA and incorporate financial psychology to explore the emotional impact of money on well-being.
