About Mariel Alejandra Ross, LCSW

http://www.marielrtherapy.com

You’re the one everyone relies on; the strong one.
Even when you’re overwhelmed or running on empty, you keep showing up for everyone else. On the outside, you look calm and capable. Inside, you may feel anxious, exhausted, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode.

I’m a Latina therapist serving adults in Santa Clarita and online throughout California who struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, trauma, burnout, perfectionism, and low self-esteem. Many of my clients grew up in families where they had to be “the responsible one” or carry emotional and cultural expectations that left little room for their own needs.

I help clients unlearn survival-mode patterns, rebuild self-trust, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with their emotions in a grounded, authentic way. If you’ve been dealing with overthinking, emotional fatigue, childhood trauma, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can help you finally make space for your own healing.

My style is warm, relational, and culturally attuned. Just real human connection, steady support, and a space where you don’t have to explain your culture or minimize your story.

I was born in Bolivia, and my journey as a Latina immigrant raised in Los Angeles has shaped not only how I understand the world, but how I show up for others. Growing up navigating cultural differences and challenges within my own family helped me develop a deep sense of empathy especially for those who feel caught between worlds or unseen in theirs. These experiences allow me to connect with clients from all walks of life with compassion, curiosity, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story.

I am available to schedule a free 15-20 minute initial phone or video call to further understand more about your therapy needs. Rest assure that our consult call is hassle free; I welcome you to take your time to decide whether to move forward with me after our call. I have a current waitlist for in person appointments at this time, you may message me to inquire more.
