Roya Candia, AMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Life may feel heavier or less familiar than it once did. Amid change, grief, uncertainty, or disconnection, you may find yourself wondering why familiar patterns keep returning and longing to reconnect with yourself or discover a new way of being. Therapy can offer a place to slow down, listen to what your mind and body are communicating, and find steadier ground as your relationships, identity, or circumstances evolve. You do not need to know exactly what you need or where the process will lead. We can begin with what is present and allow the path forward to take shape together. My work with adults and teens is informed by over 20 years of experience in somatics, behavioral health, youth development, and body-based healing. Guided by cultural humility, I integrate relational, attachment-based, emotionally focused, and parts-work approaches to honor each person as a whole, recognize patterns, develop skills, and deepen connection. Beginning therapy can feel vulnerable. I will meet you with warmth, curiosity, and respect for your pace. Together, we can explore what you have been carrying, strengthen self-trust, and find practical ways to meet life’s challenges. If you think we may be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I bring over 20 years of study and experience in somatics and body-based practice, along with an MA in Counseling Psychology with a Somatic Specialization. Since 2015, I have supported adults, adolescents, groups, and families seeking healing, growth, and meaningful change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I offer affirming, trauma-informed somatic psychotherapy for adults and teens navigating emotional, relational, identity, and life challenges. Drawing from EFT, AEDP, somatic awareness, parts work, and relational exploration, we work toward building capacity for emotional regulation, self-trust, resilience, and lasting change.
