She completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where she received a BA in Psychology and a minor in Philosophy.

Victoria views the therapy room as a powerful and sacred space—one for self-discovery, growth, and healing. Her approach is eclectic, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities tailored to meet each client’s individual needs. Her primary frameworks include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to examine and reshape patterns of thought and behavior
  • Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) to enhance emotional attunement and understanding

Elizabeth Tang

Elizabeth Tang

ASSOCIATE MFT# 147262

Hello, I’m Elizabeth Tang, your fellow traveler on the path to healing! As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I’m thrilled to be by your side as we uncover the layers of your story together. I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology at California State University, Northridge and my master’s degree at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Counseling Psychology, with emphasis in Depth Psychology.

My journey as a therapist has taken me through a variety of settings, from working with children, teens, and adults in schools and Telehealth, to helping those in crisis at a psychiatric hospital. I started at an all-male high school, then moved to community mental health, where I served at-risk youth and underserved communities. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of watching how the power of empathy and a safe space can spark transformation in people’s lives.

As a second-generation Asian American, I’m especially passionate about how culture shapes mental health. I know firsthand the weight of feeling “different” and how shame can push people toward unhealthy coping strategies. That’s why I take a collaborative approach, meeting my clients exactly where they are emotionally—no judgment, just a lot of compassion.

My therapeutic style pulls from Psychodynamic Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Depth Psychology, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with a growing interest in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Together, we’ll process your pain, unravel past traumas, and pave the way for a happier, healthier life.

In my spare time, you can find me reconnecting with nature on a hike, nurturing my houseplants, or spending time with my family, friends, and my mischievous cat, Ziggy.

ASSOCIATE MFT# 141510

My name is Carmen Liu, I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist.

I believe that all relationships with others are equally as powerful as the relationships with oneself and in therapy. I am dedicated to providing a safe space and comprehensive support for individuals, couples, and families. With a Master’s degree from Pepperdine University, I integrate various therapeutic approaches into my practice, ensuring a diverse and tailored experience for each individual.

As your therapist, my commitment is to facilitate transformative growth, addressing challenges that span from everyday stress to profound deep-seated traumas. I am passionate about empowering individuals to cultivate self-awareness, attunement and confidence. Exploring past experiences and addressing maladaptive thought processes may be essential at times. Bringing my authentic self, I aim for a collaborative environment that encourages self reflection and growth.

My therapeutic approach draws upon principles from Attachment-based/Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based interventions. It is essential to emphasize that my approach is grounded in cultural sensitivity and empathy. With my expertise, I have assisted individuals with depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, life transitions, self identity issues and more.

Together, we can embark on a therapeutic journey towards a more peaceful life aligned with your true desires and goals.

Hello, I’m Austin Johnson, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) deeply passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life’s trials. I earned my master’s degree in clinical psychology, specializing in marriage and family therapy from Pepperdine University. My professional journey has been enriched by experiences at Inspire Malibu, a dual diagnosis treatment center, and OPICA, a therapeutic haven for older clients coping with dementia.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and fostering authentic connections. I draw from client-centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to create a nurturing space where clients feel empowered to begin their journey towards healing and self-discovery. I am excited in joining Revive Wellness Counseling Center as an associate therapist because it offers a dynamic environment where you can make a meaningful impact on clients’ lives while being part of a supportive team dedicated to personal growth and well-being.

Outside of my clinical practice, I find peace in the rhythm of sports, particularly tennis and basketball, and solace in the melodies of the piano. However, my greatest joy comes from the moments shared with loved ones and friends, as I believe deeply in the transformative power of human connection on well-being and resilience.

With a heartfelt commitment to guiding individuals and families towards holistic wellness, I stand ready to offer a compassionate hand to navigate life’s challenges with courage and grace.
