Hello, My name is Elizabeth, and my pronouns are they/them/elle. I am a bicultural nonbinary therapist. I have the most experience working with anxiety disorders, self-confidence issues, and challenges around gender and sexuality. I use a very humanistic approach in my practice, and I am human with you in the room. You do not need to feel talked down to or be told what to do in therapy. You and I can work together instead, as I may be the expert in psychology, but you are the expert of your own life. You will be encouraged to use your own strengths to push through the hurdles and you can expect warmth from me throughout this process.

Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Pennsylvania and California. I’ve always been fascinated by the human experience. Life is a complicated journey that at times can be very distressing. We as humans need each other to survive, heal, and actualize. I know starting therapy can be quite vulnerable. I truly believe engaging in therapy and the therapeutic relationship can support healing, change, and growth. I meet with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds that often struggle with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and life transitions. Some identify as LGBTQ+ and need support with their coming out process or with gender identity exploration. Many of the people I work with are having difficulty adjusting to life connected to an unexpected life event or are experiencing challenges at their workplace. In sessions, we will explore what you desire, the steps you are willing to take, your strengths, and what barriers are getting in your way. My hope is to support you in living a full and healthy life.

Hello, I'm Kendal. Do you ever find yourself having a hard time with your thoughts? To the point where it makes life as a whole more difficult? Are you having a hard time with allowing yourself to feel good about yourself? Has it gotten harder for you to maintain your relationships? I tackle these challenges with people who come from diverse backgrounds. I want to work with you to find out what's helping you and what isn't so that you can create simple changes that bring you back to feeling more like yourself, and creating a sense of balance in your life and in your mind. I approach you as a unique individual with your own needs, and integrate CBT, DBT, and MI into my approaches, as well as metaphors to help make complex concepts more relatable. I work with depression and it's negative thoughts, anxiety and it's racing worry thoughts, and LGBTQIA+ issues just to name a few. I want to help you in an environment that feels safe and can promote lasting growth. I firmly believe that each and every person deserves therapy from a mindset of cultural humility, and will bring that into our time together along with empathy and evidenced-based practices to help you navigate the struggles you bring in. I look forward to working with you!

These are all the providers we have at this time based on your selections. We're constantly adding new providers to our site. Try adjusting your filters to see available providers.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
