Reba Machado

I am an LMFT and EMDR Therapist and EMDR Consultant in Riverside, CA. I am developing a specialty in working with postpartum mothers and families, particularly those who have experienced birth trauma, and have extensive experience supporting women through various life transitions. In addition to my clinical work, I supervise MFT Trainees from California Baptist University at a nearby non-profit, guiding their growth as EMDR-trained therapists. I have also been an adjunct professor at CBU for 14 years for their College of Behavioral and Social Sciences, teaching in their MFT program and their Sport and Performance Psychology program, where I have been able to introduce EMDR. I also own and operate a group practice of EMDR clinicians called Raincross Family Counseling, where I provide supervision to AMFTs and lead our supervision team, fostering their professional development and expertise in trauma-focused care.

As a proud Filipina-American, I hold strong family values and cherish time spent with my family and extended family. I have three young kids who keep me on my toes, and I love making memories with them—whether at home, at Disneyland, or exploring our Inland Empire community. My family and I are deeply involved in our local church and community. My husband is also an MFT and is the full-time Women’s Golf Coach at CBU. Together, we serve in our church’s marriage and soul-care ministries. My faith in God is a cornerstone of my personal and professional life.
