Program Director

CADC-II

My name is Caitlin Garcia and I have been working in the substance use and mental health field for 17 years. I have experience supporting both adults and adolescents with mental health, substance use, and co occurring disorders.

She has served in various settings and populations. She has used different interventions and techniques (CBT, DBT, IFS, Narrative therapy, Reality therapy, Exposure therapy, Gestalt therapy, Gottman method, Betrayal trauma healing, and more). She has worked with clients with mental health disorders, trauma, emotional disturbances, addictions, personality disorders, special needs, couples with discord, etc. She has also facilitated various group therapy sessions, as well as, family therapy. Alina Nejadian is currently in a management position as a Clinical Director and oversees a staff of pre-licensed individuals. Training in the modalities listed above, catering them to client needs. Her belief is as follows: “We are all very unique, and our core needs may be similar, however, we like our needs met in varying ways. We have been clouded by the conditioning of our upbringing, life experiences, and so on. To undo some of the conditioning, reach our authentic self, and radiate at a higher plane may lead to healing, and if not, it shall lead to our genuine self making the determination of what is best for our healing. My intent is to be a tiny part of moving you into that direction.” On a more personal note: Alina truly believes in how much growth there has been and there is yet to be in the world of science, and she is also highly spiritual. Alina has shared that she has dealt with an extensive amount of hardships in her lifetime, and has thus become a huge fan of people like Thich Nhat Hanh, Richard Schwartz, and Carl Jung. What she has learned, experienced, in combination with her own healing to an extent, her faith, and her beliefs makes her passionate about sharing concepts through therapy that she hopes will work for you.
