Hi! My name is Alexis Sutherland and I am from Corona, CA. I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT148985) as well as an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC17445).

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a Minor in Education from UC Davis, where I also competed as a Division-I Track and Field student-athlete. I then earned my Master of Science in Counseling (Marriage and Family Therapy) from CSU Fullerton.

My therapeutic style is primarily guided by Narrative Therapy with influences from Person-Centered and Multicultural approaches. I have experience in addressing mental health challenges such as identity development, life transitions, neurodivergence, anxiety, and depression. I believe in fostering a safe, nonjudgmental, and welcoming environment that encourages clients to trust the collaborative process of therapy.

My name is Amber Gordon (she/her/hers), and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW115164) and EMDR Certified Therapist. I received my master’s degree in social work from the University of Southern California and bachelor’s degree in English from the University of California, Irvine. I developed my clinical skills in various mental health settings, including community mental health, substance use treatment, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization settings. I have prioritized working with marginalized communities, such as communities of color, LGBTQ+ identified folx, HIV+/at risk populations, and those experiencing houselessness.  

My goal is to help guide folx through discovering their own power and potential. By utilizing a low barrier and anti-oppressive approach that focuses on the humanization and empowerment of the individual, I hope to reinforce that everyone is worthy of healing. My work is informed by critical race theory, queer feminist theory, and ecological systems theory. I am committed to delivering high quality mental health services through a trauma-informed and focused lens.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #101011 with a primary focus on BIPOC folks of all genders and those in the LGBTQIA+ community.  My approach to therapy is meeting the client where they are and forming a healthy and safe working relationship. I believe therapy is not "one size fits all" and will utilize different techniques and therapeutic modalities depending on my client's needs.

My areas of clinical focus are anxiety, women's issues, men's issues, depression, behavioral health issues, parenting, LGBTQIA+ issues as well as providing mental and emotional support to transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary folks as they start their journey in gender affirming healthcare.

As a black and transgender therapist, I understand the need for someone who identifies similarly and has a deeper understanding of the issues marginalized communities face. I strive to make sure every client is heard and understood.
