Getting to know Maria (Chay) Tanchanco

Hi! I'm Chay, and I am here to help you find your confidence again. When I first meet my clients, they feel stuck. They remember what it was like to feel productive, effective, and able to take on the world. But, without realizing it, the busy life on the surface had been masking feelings of overwhelm, frustration, and resentment. As helping professionals, we aren't used to putting ourselves first. We feel selfish, guilty, and ashamed when it feels like we have to choose between ourselves and the needs of others. As a helping professional myself, I know firsthand how intense the conflict can feel, and I empathize every day with navigating the complex emotions. I hold a Master's in Counseling from Saint Mary's College of California, which has deepened my understanding and skills in supporting others. As a therapist of helpers, I have seen time and time again how a safe space and the right tools can empower each person to direct their gifts of supporting others towards themselves in a balanced and healthy way, finding their way back to the life they love. Working with a therapist who sees you, understands what you've gone through, and provides high-quality care is essential to you reaching your goals. I am honored to be that person for you, and I will walk alongside you every step of the way.
