Hi, I'm Ann Whittington, I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been in private practice for more than 25 years. I meet clients where they are and help them feel safe in the context of a therapeutic relationship that honors gifts and strengths, as well as challenges. I begin with honoring the client by starting where they are with a deep respect for the courage it takes to develop insight and make the changes that they want to make. These are the theories and modalities I use.

Sometimes difficult moments leave us feeling stressed, depressed, anxious, angry, and at times, all of those emotions at once. But you do not have to face these challenges alone. Through therapeutic support and guidance, these same challenges can be approached as opportunities for growth and positive change.

Hi there, I'm Leslie. Do you often find yourself overwhelmed by the demands of a busy life? Maybe you feel like something is "off" that you cannot quite identify. You may feel disconnected and experience frequent low moods. You might be someone who has been diagnosed or self-identified as neurodivergent, or you may be raising a neurodivergent child and feeling lost in coping with your feelings about how to navigate that challenge. You might be stuck in (or exiting) a romantic relationship that does not serve you, but you are struggling to find your path forward. Whatever the source of your anxiety, I am here to help!

Hi, I'm Jennifer. I became a therapist by first being introduced to therapy as a client myself. I had difficulty finding a good fit and felt I could be an effective therapist myself. Are you feeling anxious about the prospect of beginning or resuming therapy? Maybe you fear judgment in telling your story to someone else? I found it exhausting to retell my story each time I began with a new therapist, but I eventually found a good fit and was able to get the treatment I needed. I use a nonjudgmental stance in my approach in order to optimize healing and allow for personal growth in a safe space.
