Hello, I'm Jane Jacob, an LCSW practicing in California and offering telehealth services statewide. My academic journey, which includes graduate studies at the University of Southern California (USC), is complemented by a profound interest in neuropsychology, supported by years of dedicated research. I specialize in working with children (0-17), adults, and geriatrics, focusing on anxiety, depression, and stress. Using evidence-based modalities, I tailor therapeutic approaches to empower individuals on their journey to positive transformations and improved well-being.

I believe in every human beings capacity to change and evolve.I feel honored to bear witness to my client's life story and to be a part of their journey to make meaning of their suffering.

My name is Katherine Tessler, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked in outpatient settings for the last 7 years, with children, adolescents, and adults. I now focus on helping adults struggling with symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, often due to recent life changes or stressors, and who just want to feel better on a day-to-day basis. Many of my clients have gone through recent transitions, such as graduating college and entering "real world", changing careers, getting married, having their first baby... I am here to support you in adjusting to your new normal.

A main focus of my therapy is joining clients in what they are going through. Therapeutic workbooks are great, but there is a big difference between opening up to a workbook versus opening up to a human being. When we open up to another person we make ourselves vulnerable. That is when true growth begins. I set out to try and help people deal with the core issues, as well as enhance their core strengths. When there is a recovery in the core, the symptoms can be dealt with. Our problematic situations and behaviors are but a symptom. Website: jeremyharveymftcom

A key step is developing insight, combined with a willingness to accept increasing levels of personal responsibility. As a therapist and coach, my orientation is holistic. I incorporate a whole-person approach that emphasizes physical, mental, emotional, and interpersonal factors. I view human experience as an inherently creative process, and work to empower clients to harness their innate potential to create meaningful and fulfilling lives through committed action based on personal values.
