About

HELLO, I AM DR. CHARLEANEA ARELLANO

I help individuals break through limiting beliefs, unearth what life has intended for them, and discover what makes them thrive.

Inspired by the beautifully powerful resilience of the human spirit, I started this business in 2004 with the intention of supporting people in their quest for more–achieving, experiencing, and being more. Over the years, my heart has been deeply moved by the stories of people who have overcome personal adversity and courageously used it as a springboard into greatness. These stories of courage, hope, and strength have fueled my desires for helping and supporting others as they heal themselves, expand and deepen their life experience, reclaim their personal power, and create incredible lives.

THE REAL HEALING HAPPENS IN MOVING FORWARD

With over 30 years of experience as a Clinical Psychologist and a Board Certified Life Coach (along with my own lived experience of childhood neglect, abuse, and abandonment), I know firsthand what it takes to overcome hardship. I believe that gathering valuable insight into our pasts can propel us forward and lead to measurable healing and transformation.

My approach combines an ideal balance of expertise, compassion, and wisdom as I support you in transforming your life. I strive to provide emotional safety for my clients and create an environment that is compassionate, encouraging, and supportive. I want to show you what is possible by helping you transform limiting beliefs into empowering ones so you can live the life you’ve always wanted—one full of happiness, joy, fulfillment, and purpose.

TESTIMONIALS

“She brings an insurmountable amount of knowledge, joy, and laughter to every session and challenges me when I need it. I was at the lowest point in my life when I ended up in her office. From the first day she helped me to self-reflect in an environment free of judgement. She would help me lean into the pain, giving me time and space to find the true undercurrent of the issues at hand. She would recommend books, give me homework and I felt like I had an incredible ally in the crazy journey of finding my way back to myself. She guided me on the spiritual journey outside of religion, to help me reconnect to a higher understanding and clarity of why we are here and how to use the gifts we are given to improve our life instead of self-sabotage. I feel like she saved me, or rather she helped me to save myself.”

“In less than a year my life was completely transformed! When I began working with Dr. Arellano, I was in experiencing depression, stress, and anxiety in nearly every aspect of my life. Although I had a relatively comfortable life and had much for which to be grateful, something was missing. I felt I was on the wrong path, primarily, my life in my chosen profession. I was uninspired and unfulfilled.

Dr. Arellano helped me recognize my situation and gave me a simple, yet profoundly powerful structure in which I could chart a new path in life. At first, I did not see how her advice and guidance could possibly work for me - It was so simple and subtle! Yet I followed it to a tee and it did not take long for me to see actual results!”

“I am profoundly grateful to Charleanea for helping me to awaken my true self and encouraging me to follow my dreams.

Despite many years of therapy to heal past trauma, I still felt tied to the past. Old ways of coping, and old perceptions of myself led me to repeat self-defeating thought patterns and behaviors. Charleanea helped me to find my true self and trust my inner wisdom. She connected deeply to both the spiritual and emotional parts of my being. With great insight, warmth, nonjudgmental compassion and wisdom she encouraged me to find and follow my own path. I now feel free to strive to my fullest potential. I feel a deep joy in living.”

“My experience with Dr. Arellano was life changing in every sense of the word.

I had the great pleasure of working with Dr. Arellano while I was on a six month sabbatical. Of course, at the time I thought I was the only 47 year old dad who doubted his place in the universe. With great compassion, insight - and fun - Charleanea taught me practical skills to assess and manage my life. I recently returned to work invigorated and in control. (Ask her about dragging your boxes out into the light!).”

“She has always been a non-judgmental voice of wisdom and solace in the midst of many storms, and has helped me to reach the centered, grounded place I now live life from.”
