Are you anxious, depressed or sad? Have you experienced a traumatic event? Are you finding yourself stuck in unhealthy patterns in your relationships/career ? Recognizing that you need help, can be difficult as well as intimidating. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I have had extensive training and experience working with adults (individuals and couples), children and adolescents for over 10 years.

Hi there, I'm Kelly! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of California, Utah, and Maine. As your therapist I will support you in building the skills you need to navigate everyday life stressors. I have years of experience working in the areas of anxiety, trauma, suicidality, depression, PTSD, adjustment disorder, and relationship issues. I also have had the opportunity to work in diverse settings both inpatient and outpatient programs, long and short term, and with various populations of different cultural, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds.

There is no such thing as an 'ideal' client. There are only those who want to learn, explore and discover fresh ways to take on life. I like working with men and women who have "flat-lined"/ "red-lined"/ or "topped-out" in their primary relationships- marriage, adult children, adult friends and/or their personal creativity. I resonate well to people who take their willingness and need to grow seriously. I take my own very seriously.

I have a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology and a Doctorate in Psychology, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences. It is my belief that it is vital to lead life comfortably in one’s own body physically, spiritually, and emotionally. This includes exploring and learning the skills necessary to achieve good emotional and mental health. I enjoy collaborating with clients to find the right skills that will help them achieve their goals.

Haruki Murakami writes, "And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in". You likely find yourself in a storm of your own.

Are you open to the possibility that there is purpose in your pain and it can be used for your spiritual and personal growth? Let's navigate life's waters together and uncover meaning as you become who you really are.

I understand that we are more than physical–we have complex dimensions, including mental, emotional, sexual, relational, and spiritual parts that may need support and healing.

Hi, I'm Avrille Birnbaum! I'm a Clinical Psychologist, practicing therapy via video for clients who are in need but might not be able to take time off weekly to come to an office. I am a believer in doing what I can to make self-care accessible and relevant for each client, and I strive to make each person feel that they are having a conversation in which they feel supported, heard, and receive tools to use in their daily lives. Most often, my clients come to me struggling with issues regarding neurodivergence, depression, social anxiety, living with bipolar disorder, chronic pain, and autoimmune disorders.

Maybe you’ve been asking yourself, “Am I broken?” “What’s wrong with me?” You’re stuck between unbearable emotions and trying to maintain control…But it’s not working. You're likely having overpowering emotions of intense anxiety, depression, or rage. Holding on to trauma is crippling. When left unattended it can start tearing away at your physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual life. Are you or your spouse experiencing these feelings based on current or past trauma from childhood, adolescence, or adulthood? I invite you to a safe space where you can feel at ease to begin looking at where these difficulties began.

I am passionate about working with teens and adults to help navigate those challenges and guide you on that journey. I got into this work because I believe everyone deserves a safe space in which they can navigate their inner and outer worlds, overcome barriers, and be heard and valued. I believe by offering unconditional acceptance and empathetic listening, I can help you find your unique strengths which can move you towards healing and growth.

I have been working in the Mental Health field for about 15 years where I gained valuable experience working in various settings, including clinics, schools, and private practices. My approach to therapy is client-centered, meaning that I work collaboratively with my clients to identify their unique goals and needs.

I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to express themselves freely and work towards healing and growth.

Are you exhausted, constantly worried and overwhelmed but don’t know how to put yourself first? You are not alone. If you are someone who is trying to find balance and joy in your life, you are in the right place.

My approach to therapy centers on recognizing your strengths & guiding you toward enhancing your connections. I cultivate a safe space where you can freely express yourself & explore your vulnerabilities.

Are you feeling like something just isn’t working? In fact, maybe it feels as if nothing is working. Are you waking up each day feeling drained, adrift, and distant from the things that once brought you happiness?

My name is Jose Mejia I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 134857. My approach towards therapy is empowering the client and exposing their strengths.

For those seeking a clinician for themself: Life is hard. It seems like everyone received a playbook and your copy never arrived. In our work together, we’ll navigate understanding how you process the world and your inner self. We’ll gently unpack the anxiety and loneliness that are inherent to living in environments meant for neurotypical folx. There will be space to celebrate what makes you unique and space to process the pain of life’s challenges. Our work together will be individual to you, but I provide all clients affirming care that honors your identity as valid and enough.

My goal is to help guide those that have lost their way, to help them build or rebuild the relationship with themselves that will allow them to make better choices. To help change negative thoughts to positive and to learn that they deserve to walk through the journey of life happy, fulfilled, and with their head held high. My job is to hold the light and lead the way to insight and self-love.
