Carlos Alcántara, LCSW
Carlos, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker, was born in Los Angeles and raised in El Monte, Ca. Throughout his childhood he was exposed to a lot of brokenness, addiction, violence, and dysfunction that led to both healthy and unhealthy habits.
Carlos had to go through his own transformative journey in order for him to have freed himself from the many obstacles intended to keep him stagnant and discouraged. It has been his pursuit with his relationship with God that has helped him re-define who he is, and although Carlos is nowhere near the end of his transformation, he has a passion for those seeking complete wellness.
Through weekly counseling sessions Carlos Alcántara will explore patterns of behaviors (both past and present) and help you identify the underlying reasons for your choices. As a licensed clinical social worker, Carlos has over 15 years of experience helping people from age 5-85 years old redefine their lives.
Carlos will be available via telephone (text or call) in case of emergencies, and additional sessions are available at the standard rate. Carlos can provide individual, couple, group, or family sessions. Each session will be experiential and Carlos will work with you through exercises, homework assignments, reading material, and challenging shifts in perception that will redefine your truth.

This journey had an additional obstacles when she battled with several physical ailments such has herniated disc, lower back pain, sciatica, and endometriosis all at the same time.
Bianca gained over 50 pounds during each pregnancy, but it has been through her intimate relationship with God that has helped her understand the true beauty of her mind, body and soul. That journey has led her to have a deep compassion for those people seeking to lose significant weight, battle with physical disabilities, and older adults seeking to improve overall fitness.
