Hi there, I'm Alicia. Are you feeling lost or stuck in some aspect of your life and finding it hard to move forward? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? With your permission, I help to hold the container for deeper exploration and healing. I am a trauma-based therapist trained in EMDR, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I believe that each of us possesses an internal source of wisdom that can be cultivated through psychotherapy, psychedelic medicines, meditation practices, yoga and other connecting practices that link the brain, body and spirit. My therapeutic approach has a foundation of mindfulness and compassion, curiosity and respect. I often use EMDR as an evidence-based approach to working with trauma and other challenges. I am sensitive to the impact of one's social, physical and cultural environment as well as systems of oppression. Clients say my approach is warm, relational, collaborative, strengths-based and trauma-informed. I cannot do the work for you, but I can help you along the way, and it is truly an honor and a joy for me.

Hi, I am Trisha Leamon, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I have had an interest in human behavior for as long as I can remember. I enjoy helping my clients source their strengths and achieving effective ways to navigate life’s challenges. My professional experience has given me the opportunity to work with clients who are facing substance abuse, depression, anxiety, divorce, codependence, and grief. I especially enjoy working with clients who are navigating difficult transitions such as divorce, relationships, work, adding to their family, retirement, and the many other journeys of life. My personal experience of my sons passing in 2008 was a large part of my desire to work in the counseling field. Through my own journey, I recognized how difficult past experiences can often play large roles in how we navigate life. My goal with therapy is to offer my clients a caring, attuned therapist as we find new ways to solve problems, heal old wounds, and strengthen the way you live your life. I embrace client focused/strength based theories, CBT, and love the works of Brene Brown and Internal Family Systems.

Hello and welcome! I am so glad you are taking the first step of your mental health journey by looking for a therapist. I am here to help. I'm a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in California and provide telehealth therapy to people living in California. I received my Master's Degree from California State University, Fresno and have been working with individuals with mental health for six years. Most of my background is in severe and persistent mental health, but also have three years of experience working with clients struggling with substance use. I often integrate different modalities such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, psychoanalytic, and motivational interviewing into therapy to ensure clients meet their therapeutic goals and become the version of themselves they hope for. I work with adults who experience anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders, Bipolar disorders, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and multicultural issues. As an Indian and Middle Eastern American, I emphasize the importance of accessing mental health services for BIPOC communities. I strongly encourage my clients to practice self-care every week and maintain a strong work-life balance. Some of my self-care activities include getting massages, spa days, eating my favorite foods, and spending time with my cats. I believe self-care should be practiced daily, but weekly is a good place to start for clients who have the tendency to put themselves last. I ask my clients to try mindfulness to be present in the here and now. Mindfulness can look different for everyone- I often use the Calm app to listen to meditations and sleep stories when I am falling asleep. Therapy can be life-changing for most and often is not an easy road. I provide my clients with warmth and empathy and use a non-judgmental stance in every session. I help clients promote the changes they want to see in themselves so they can learn how to make life-lasting changes independently. Therapy with me is helpful, meaningful, warm, and easy-going. I take the stance as a cheerleader for my clients and encourage clients to put in extra effort to achieve their goals.

When we’ve lost a part of ourselves, a life we had created or envisioned, our world can feel as if it’s falling apart, even ending. And in a way, it is. But maybe this is also part of our journey, the road that takes us to the heart of it. When provided with a safe environment where respect, compassion and unconditional positive regard are offered, we have a chance to set out on our path. The invitation, as always, is to start. Start anywhere, no matter how unsure and unsteady. But start somewhere. In time we grow more aware and self-assured as we make our way toward our most authentic self, our most authentic life.

As a therapist, I am someone who embarked on a unique journey that shaped my path in psychology. After serving in the army, I found a deep passion for understanding the human mind and behavior. This newfound love led me to pursue further education and training in psychology, ultimately guiding me towards specializing in marriage and family therapy. My own experiences of building and nurturing a family have influenced my focus on helping couples and families thrive. I understand the dynamics and complexities that arise within intimate relationships and the importance of fostering healthy connections. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals, couples, and families can explore their emotions, conflicts, and challenges. Having worked in the field for five years, I have gained valuable experience and expertise in helping clients navigate their relationship dynamics and personal growth. I am committed to normalizing emotions, recognizing that experiencing a range of emotions is a natural and essential part of the human experience. My approach is centered around placing well-being as a priority. I believe that when individuals prioritize their own mental and emotional health, they are better equipped to cultivate healthy and fulfilling relationships. I work collaboratively with clients, empowering them to gain self-awareness, develop effective communication skills, and implement strategies that support their overall well-being. Through therapy, my intention is to support clients in fostering stronger connections, resolving conflicts, and achieving personal and relational growth. I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges, providing them with the tools and support they need to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.
