Our Values
Written by: Dr. Karla Heredia, PsyD, LMFT
Heredia Therapy Group is a collaborative, family-friendly mental health practice dedicated to providing the best care for our clients.
Our team reflects the rich diversity of our community here in California, with people of many different colors, creeds, sexualities, and worldviews.
We are directed by women-identified leaders who guide our expert team of clinicians, technicians, and administrators as we strive to meet the standards set for our practice.
We stand for social justice, respect, and excellence in service.
We believe that everyone deserves to have a sense of belonging, and we strive to provide a space for that in our clinical work.
And, we hope to do our part by providing healing and love to a world filled with suffering and hate.
These are our values.
Social Justice & Equality
Our world is wrought with injustice and inequality. The protests of 2020 made us aware, more than ever, that there is still work to be done. Civil rights leader John Lewis once declared that “We are one people, one family, the human family, and what affects one of us affects us all.” We recognize that so many of us suffer the effects of injustice and inequality, and that all of us have the ability to try to make things right.
We believe that you deserve the resources you and your family need to thrive. We know that all people have innate worth. We hope for a time where the marginalized will be welcomed in, the oppressed will be empowered, and the silenced will be given a voice.
You deserve a place at the table. You deserve justice, fairness, and respect. And you deserve a space to heal and grow without facing fear, judgment, or disregard.
Respect for All People
We recognize the power of identity. Some identities come with incredible privilege, while others must work tirelessly to be seen as equals, as human. Some are afforded unconditional acceptance from society, while others are marked as outcasts. Too many feel alone and unloved. Too many are dismissed and written off. Too many must face hatred, violence, and abuse because of the way they look, the people they love, or if and how they choose to worship.
To those who are marginalized for your gender, sexuality, faith, country of origin, language, or abilities, we know that you deserve to belong.
If we do the hard and humble work of seeking equality, our differences can be recognized as elements which spark inspiration. Our unique qualities can be truly appreciated and utilized, thus elevating our society to the next level. But most importantly, we can recognize that we all share the same inherent worth by virtue of our humanity.
Quality of Care
Whether you are seeking answers through gold-standard testing, healing through compassionate therapy, or simply aren’t sure where to turn, we are here for you.
As stewards of healing and science, our practice strives to provide the highest quality of psychological services to our community. We utilize a wide range of evidence-based assessment, counseling, and skills training designed to meet the diverse needs of our community here in California.
We care because we have been there. We know what it’s like to deal with hardship, hurt, and heartache. Our hope is to offer the best possible healing to you and your family – you deserve nothing less.

Hi there, I think your blog could be having internet browser compatibility issues.
When I take a look at your blog in Safari, it looks
fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it’s got some overlapping issues.
I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up!
Aside from that, wonderful site!
