I am a therapist for therapists specializing in complex trauma, low self-esteem, self-harm, substance use, and existential anxiety. As a mental health professional, you may present as successful, but you might feel ashamed or unsettled in life. You might also experience fears about your capacity to help clients or manage your emotional well-being. You probably "know" the right coping skills and "have the insight," but you're seeking deeper introspection and hoping to resolve deep inner conflicts. You're also open to engaging in a meaningful relationship where you can explore some of the more tender issues in life.

I provide holistic psychotherapy to help my clients create a more joyful and fulfilling life for themselves. I work well with a wide variety of psychoemotional problems. These include anxiety, depression, psychosis, and addictions. Relationship difficulties are a specialty of mine and I take a lot of joy in helping people improve their relationship life. My approach is different than most therapy and psychiatry in that it's not just about reducing symptoms, it's about each person's unique prescription for happiness.

I think that an egalitarian relationship is crucial to furthering therapeutic outcomes.
Hello! My name is Kameron "Kam" Kaveh, I am an LMFT licensed in California. My therapeutic approach is two parts, therapy should be something you look forward to, and should be a place where you can process the changes that you would like to make in your life. I specialize in LGBTQIA+ populations with a particular emphasis on advocacy and religious trauma. I tend to approach clients from an integrative standpoint. Starting with the initial assessment I look to understand developmental "stuck points" that inhibit forward progress.

I am most experienced in addressing clinical issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, and parenting, as well as broader concerns of meaning, growth, and personal potential.
Depression. Anxiety. Relationship and career problems. These very real difficulties of living represent potent opportunities for growth and transformation. In reality, this is not always easy to see. 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.

Hello, I am Dr. Nanci Carter and I am dedicated to working with adults and couples that want to make changes in their lives and improve their relationships. Depth work offers this help in a number of ways -- self-exploration and understanding, enriched relational skills, and space to grieve one's losses. Perhaps you wonder why you can't speak your truth. Maybe you experienced abuse or neglect as a child. Our ways of being with others, laid down in childhood, can be worked through, understood and reorganized within the psychotherapy relationship.
