Family Therapy
Parenting
Have you ever looked at your family and thought to yourself (hopefully quietly): "Goodness, our family is so dysfunctional!" "Why can't we just get along, and connect in a healthy and 'normal' way?" If you've asked yourself any of these questions, you've come to the right address. I'm happy to help your family work to become more "functional." In a direct yet gentle way, I ask my clients tough questions and offer them concrete tools to move forward. Clients come away from sessions feeling well understood and empowered.

**Due to demand; regretfully, unable to accept "couples" at this time** I am Dr. Kawakami and I have been in the mental health and addiction field for over 20 years. I am a practicing Licensed Professional Counselor, a National Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, an author, an empowering media personality, and a proud veteran of the United States Army. You may have seen me as "The Mind Doctor®" on hit TV shows such as Bravo’s Married To Medicine, VH1’s Love and Hip Hop, WEtv's Bold & Bougie, WEtv’s Growing Up Hip Hop Atlanta working with rapper, producer, actor, and superstar Bow Wow, and WEtv’s Brat Loves Judy with rapper, producer, actress, and Funkdafied super star, DaBrat! While I have been viewed by millions of people on television, my humble beginnings actually started on television as a six-month-old baby being placed for adoption and featured on the “Thursday’s Child of The Week” segment. After being adopted in Los Angeles, California, I grew up in a multi-cultural family from East Side San Jose, California. Prior to earning my Ph.D. in Psychology via an academic institution, I had already earned my Ph.D. in "Hustling" via the streets of the Bay Area in the dope game. I acknowledge a divine intervention and acknowledge, “Only God could have me go from selling dope and destroying lives to offering hope and restoring lives. Look at Gawwwwd!”

Hello, I'm Robert. My counseling style has always been focused on building a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My motto is that we all have bad situations (death, abuse, divorce, etc.) that can trigger negative thoughts and feelings, and it is important to respond to these situations in a healthy manner or we tend to stay in that negative space longer than we ever intended. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, DBT, rational-emotive counseling, and client-centered therapy. My goal is to walk with you through your healing journey as you take steps towards accepting but not allowing challenging events to define who you are and take control of your life. I realize that it is not easy to admit that you need help, but that is the beginning of change! If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Hi. I'm Christine. Over-stressed and demoralized these days? Are familiar activities and places that you've found soothing suddenly not offering relief from anxiety and depression? There is no failure or shame in revamping your coping skills, finding inspiration in new narratives, and challenging old beliefs that keep you from embracing the many versions (discovered and undiscovered) of you! Are you caught in the comparison trap? Spiraling in a bad algorithm? I will help you find meaningful connection, improve relationship skills, and teach emotional regulation strategies. Life transitions can be tricky too, and it can be helpful to talk though periods of loss and change. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in journalism, gardening, and photography. I am passionate about creating habitats for local wildlife and believe one's relationship with the natural world is impactful to their level of overall wellness. I enjoy tapping people into various modes of expression, and I'm drawn to helping people live their most authentic lives.

Hi, my name is Sylvia Eboigbe, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and the owner of Mindful Moments Therapy. I have six years of experience as a mental health therapist and have had the privilege of providing services across multiple states and cities, supporting individuals in a variety of clinical and community settings. Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations in school systems, correctional facilities, substance abuse treatment centers, intensive outpatient programs, and on a Native American reservation. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the many ways people navigate life challenges and the importance of culturally responsive, compassionate care. I support adults as they work through life transitions, emotional distress, and relationship challenges with greater self-understanding, balance, and self-compassion. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), where we explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, along with mindfulness-based practices that help you stay grounded and present in the moment. I also incorporate strengths-based therapy, which focuses on identifying and building upon your existing resilience, values, and inner resources. Together, these approaches create a supportive space where you can increase awareness, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward meaningful and lasting change. My goal is to walk alongside you in a collaborative and supportive way as you build insight, strengthen emotional well-being, and reconnect with your sense of self.

Hello, I am very happy to meet you here. My name is Cassandra Sams, but please call me Sandy. I have been working as a counselor for over 20 years. Most of my experience has been in private practice but I also spent some time in agencies working with children and adolescents. I believe the agency work gave me wonderful opportunities to work with families and to help them navigate very challenging issues like mood disorders and anxiety. I feel very privileged to have been allowed to help parents find new behaviors to help them navigate the world of parenting. I also have been able to help children and adolescents understand their parents' perspectives. Likewise, I really enjoy working with individuals who are dealing with various life transitions such as leaving school to go to college or into the workforce, leaving college and building a career, getting married and having children, or struggling with the mid-life crisis and coping with career changes or life changes such as divorce or deaths of family members. I do not consider myself to be the expert of your life. You are the expert and I am the witness. I feel honored and privileged to be invited into your life experiences and to be a witness to your life's journey. I believe that your story is sacred and I thank you for allowing me to be a part of it. I use cognitive behavioral strategies blended with existential therapy to assist you in discovering what your story is. My hope is that you will learn to love your stories as much as I do.

I have been counseling over 20+ years. My background is quite varied, which I think helps me connect with people from all walks of life. I worked in private practice supporting lawyers, nurses, teachers, and kids. I understand the unique weight of professional burnout and secondary trauma. I spent significant time working in high-intensity environments- correctional and juvenile facilities as well as residential substances abuse programs. My 20+ years of experience has taught me to adapt my tools to the person in front of me.

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.

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.

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.
