Samantha Arreola
Founder & Therapist
My name is Samantha Arreola, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience in diverse therapeutic settings. I am the founder of Inward Healing Therapy, where I support individuals through processing their childhood trauma and breaking free of the burden this has caused in their lives. I am passionate about supporting people in re-establishing their self-worth, unapologetically setting boundaries, and practicing self-love. I offer a straightforward approach: addressing these challenges with empathy and expertise fosters genuine, lasting change. My mission is to provide a compassionate, judgment-free space that supports your journey toward a balanced and fulfilling life.
Vritika Parikh
Outreach Coordinator
Hey everyone! My name is Vritika Parikh and I am the Outreach Coordinator for Inward Healing Therapy. I am also a current senior at the California State University of San Marcos. I love every aspect of mental health and believe that the mind is a jelly that is constantly absorbing new information and growing beautifully. Self-care and self-love should be important parts of everyone’s life. One of the biggest tips I’ve learned while volunteering here is that you are deserving and worthy of rest - rest, but NEVER quit! In my free time, I like to go for long drives, shop with family and friends, and lounge on the couch.
