I work with individuals who grew up with a pervasive sense that they were “outside the box.” Sometimes that comes from being neurodivergent, navigating gender or sexuality, growing up in strict or religious environments, being home-schooled or always feeling different from the people around you. Many of my clients arrive with ADHD, autism, depression, anxiety, identity questions, or long-held patterns of masking to get through work, school, or life. It’s common for them to feel numb, lonely, misunderstood, or unsure about who they are and where they belong. If that resonates — you’re in the right place.

I support neurodivergent adults, ADHD/Autism, LGBTQIA+ and questioning folks, individuals exploring gender identity or transition, people processing religious trauma, chronic health struggles, grief, loss, and PTSD. I also love helping creatives, deep thinkers, and people who feel like they’ve spent years trying to “fit” rather than exist authentically.

I am Shaliss Padilla MA, LMFT, the Founder, CEO and Clinical Supervisor of group private practice MindbodyologyTM. I am also a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology. In addition, I am a Holistic Psychotherapist, (or what I have coined a MindbodyologistTM), also a Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Specialist. I offer live and online support groups and workshops for survivors of narcissitic abuse and toxic relationships.

I believe that the client, not the therapist, is the expert in their own life. My goal is to support and guide my clients see their strengths, increase self-awareness, and develop new skills to help them live a more satisfying life and build healthier relationships.

As a licensed therapist with experience supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges, including life stressors, work-related pressures, friendship dynamics, and finding joy in life. While I specialize in helping people navigate these areas, I believe that therapy is ultimately about understanding your unique experiences and working together to figure out what works best for you. Whether you're facing stress at work, struggling with personal relationships, or feeling disconnected from the joy in your life, my goal is to help you explore what's going on and how it's impacting you. We'll work together to identify strategies that make things feel more manageable, and most importantly, help you create a path toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
