Therapy for Immigrants Across California from
Moving to a new country can be one of the most courageous acts a person makes. It can also bring unexpected emotional challenges—separation from your home culture, pressure to adapt, the weight of others’ expectations, and often, the quiet stigma around mental health. At Jabali Behavioral Health Nursing, Inc., we know this path intimately because our founder‑consultant, Veronica Kamau, is a Kenyan immigrant, and she understands firsthand how daunting it can be to build a new life in the U.S. while carrying your past, hopes, and a longing for belonging.

We offer culturally‑sensitive online therapy for immigrants across California—designed to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to thrive.
The Hidden Stress of Immigration
So much of your focus may have been on practical “survival” after arriving: finding a job, adapting to a new culture, learning new norms, managing finances, and often bearing responsibility for loved ones back home. But underneath it all, there can be a quiet—and powerful—emotional story:
You may feel caught between two worlds—the one you left and the one you’re forging.
You might experience isolation or lack of community as you rebuild.
You could face language or cultural barriers, discrimination, or internal pressure to succeed.
You may struggle with seeing mental health needs in your community and not getting support because of stigma or cultural beliefs.
You might carry grief for what you left behind—and guilt for wanting something different for your future. Jabali Health
These experiences are real. They matter. And they absolutely impact your mental health. But with the right support, they can also become sources of strength, understanding, and renewal.
