Welcome! My name is Catherine Harris and I am honored to assist you with your healing journey. After 20 years of seeing clients, I still enjoy every day of this work. When off duty, I am usually hiking up a mountain, paddle boarding, or enjoying time with loved ones.

We often seek out therapy in the harder moments of life. These moments leave us feeling broken or stuck and can emerge as a result of anything from challenging personal relationships and life transitions to systemic oppression. I view my work as a therapist as an opportunity to enter these places with my clients—finding beauty in the shadows and guiding you back to remembering your inherent wholeness.

I'm a therapist specializing in working with teens and young adults, focusing on anxiety, perfectionism, addiction, and neurodivergence, particularly ADHD and concussion/TBI. In my practice, I help teens understand that anxiety is not an enemy to be feared but a signal to be understood and harnessed. Together, we work on strategies to manage anxiety effectively, allowing it to serve as a guide rather than a ruler. By shifting this perspective, teens learn to recognize anxiety's presence as a normal and manageable part of their lives, building resilience and gaining control over their emotional responses.

Sometimes anxiety, depression and trauma responses impact your relationships and work. My approach is to provide deep, abiding support to help you come back to center, allowing a more resilient self to emerge. Together we will build on your strengths to address life challenges with the aim that the consultation room is a safe space where actual life strategies are developed. You and I can address issues ranging from phase of life challenges, Work stress, relationship conflicts, trauma resolution, depression and anxiety management or the impacts of addictive processes in your life.

Hi, my name is Sheila Wallace, and my preferred name is Layla. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist in California; I have been licensed for 5 years but have worked in the Mental Health field supporting individuals from all backgrounds for 15 years. Currently, I provide individual therapy to adults ages 18 and up. I have worked with all ages and backgrounds dealing with a variety of needs. More specifically, I have supported individuals struggling with Depression, Anxiety, Panic Disorders, life transitions, and stressors, and Mood and Thought Disorders such as bipolar disorder or Schizophrenia.

I focus on relationships - and I don't just mean with significant others. What is your relationship with your anxiety or depression? What is your relationship with your trauma, your past? What is your relationship with your thoughts on a daily basis? And how does it all affect how you relate to others? I believe that I can help to untangle the mess and leave you with a deeper understanding of your self or your situation.

I focus on unlocking past disturbances from childhood through adulthood that inhibit one's relationships, work environment and overall goals. We will work with your current day stressors to help you feel more relaxed in life and less depressed. I will help you feel more empowered with deeper meaning and with more satisfying connections to yourself and others.

After 10 years of experience I can confidently share that my clients feel calmer, centered, and re-energized with a greater sense of control, direction and empowerment in their relationships with themselves and others. My goal is to help people better understand their past, present, and future in order to make changes that lead to fulfilling and meaningful life experiences. I provide a non-judgmental and supportive space which allows us to actively engage in core explorations where real and effective changes can be made. I additionally share skills and resources individual to your needs to support your growth and progress.

I'm a very experienced psychotherapist with over 30 years experience in many settings. I'm warm and compassionate, but also practical. I work from a growth model that helps you access your own wisdom and make a commitment to change. My background in the arts and Jungian psychology attunes me to the dreams and imagery that can inform you about your life course, but I also help you bring these dreams into action. My experience with mind/body can help you prepare for and recover from surgery, develop resilience, stress reduction, confront mortality and life changes, find meaningful work, and appreciate relationships.

Seeking support is an act of courage and strength. Life can be inherently stressful and sometimes can feel overwhelming. We will work together first to address your current symptoms and alleviate your suffering. As you begin to feel better, we can then shift into working with longer term patterns and challenges. As you embark on this journey, I offer a mindful, compassionate and collaborative container for our process together.

I help individuals and couples move past stuck points, ease anxiety and depression, heal past hurts and trauma, and transform relationship challenges. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, reflecting my commitment that therapy be a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel seen and understood. I work relationally, bringing my authentic self to our meetings, and offer gentle yet directive support that can help you address both day-to-day challenges as well as the deeper layers that lead to lasting change.

Life can feel like an uphill battle when you're constantly weighed down by overwhelming emotions, intrusive memories, or the relentless pain of chronic illness. You might feel trapped in cycles of worry, fear, hopelessness, or being disconnected from the people you care about the most. It's easy to feel lost, unsure of how to find relief or reconnect with a sense of normalcy. I am dedicated to helping you break free from these struggles and guiding you toward rediscovering your sense of peace, control, meaningful connections and relationships. Using EMDR, CBT, and Solution Focused Therapy, I am committed to helping you heal.

Hi there, I'm Phuong Nguyen. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). As a therapist, I am passionate about cultivating a safe space for you to examine the challenges and barriers that prevent you from living a joyful life. I hope to use therapy as a tool to help you find healing and growth in your own journey. During my clinical practices, I come to recognize that I work well with a wide age range (children to adults) but I do work best with teenagers to young adults who might be dealing with transitions, figuring out their values/identities, relationship issues, and social pressures.

I believe that there is great wisdom in our emotions. The feelings you experience are a valuable resource that only you have access to. And sometimes, those emotions can feel really uncomfortable, painful, and difficult to tolerate or understand. My style is nonjudgmental, warm yet direct, and collaborative. I provide an interactive and engaging space attuned to your needs and strengths, informed by modern neuroscience, evidence-based practices, and most importantly, our therapeutic relationship. Together, we will work to identify how past and current life stressors manifest in your mind, body, habits, and patterns.

As an intuitive therapist, my mission is to assist you in reconnecting with your inner wisdom and rediscovering your true Self. In this journey through life, it's easy to lose sight of who we truly are amidst the noise and distractions of the world. Our sessions offer a sanctuary for authentic self-expression, free from judgment. Together, we explore the tapestry of your life, forming connections between your present reality and the experiences of your past, as well as the generational patterns you might have inherited.
