As someone who has struggled with self-esteem and identity issues, I can help you re-frame self-defeating thoughts, resolve unconscious inner conflicts, and learn to value and trust your own experience. Therapy can help you feel more authentic, alive, and confident. I don't have the answers for anyone. What I might be able to help with are the questions you may have if you experience anxiety, depressed mood, conflict in your relationship, or if you find feeling good about yourself to be a challenge you can't quite resolve on your own. It takes courage to ask for help. No one really likes feeling vulnerable, including me. But being vulnerable with another person, and with ourselves, is a proven way to repair unhealed wounds and repair the damage life causes.

Hello! I'm Sara. I want to acknowledge you as you are taking the first step towards bettering your own mental health, and that's huge. Or, are you looking for someone to work with your child or teenager who is struggling with their own mental health issues? Either way, starting therapy can feel like there's some hope, and it can also feel a little scary. You are looking to change things and that is an incredibly empowering and brave first step!

Hello, I’m Jennifer Mendoza, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in child, adolescent, and family mental health based in Northern California. Over the past 12 years, I have provided psychotherapy and clinical supervision across a wide range of community and clinical settings. My work has focused on comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for children, teens, and families, as well as supporting young professionals and adults navigating life transitions. Much of my professional experience has been rooted in community-based mental health, where I have served as both a therapist and clinical supervisor in child and youth-focused programs. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, evidence-based, and culturally responsive, integrating person-centered practices that honor each client’s unique strengths and experiences. In addition to my community work, I have also provided therapy in group private practice settings and most recently served as a mental health therapist at LPCH Stanford Child and Adolescent Psychiatry’s Mood Disorders Clinic, where I supported youth and families coping with complex mood and anxiety disorders.

I am a down-to-earth and collaborative therapist who believes that the foundation of effective healing is a genuine, honest connection. I prioritize creating a transparent environment where you feel heard and respected, allowing us to work as true partners in your mental health journey. My approach is grounded in the belief that therapy is most effective when it is practical, straightforward, and focused on your unique reality. In our sessions, I value honesty and the identification of healthy, realistic goals. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), where we work together to uncover the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By identifying irrational thinking patterns and challenging negative self-talk, we can begin to reframe your narrative in a way that serves your growth rather than hindering it. I understand that starting therapy can feel like a significant step, which is why I focus on providing a non-judgmental space where we can tackle challenges at your pace. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, daily stress, or life transitions, my goal is to provide you with a functional toolkit of strategies you can use long after our sessions end. Together, we will move toward a more balanced, resilient, and fulfilling life.

Hi! I'm Dr. Chelsea Acker, a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise working with children and adolescents. I'm experienced with a range of concerns, but I have specialized training in treating trauma, suicidality, and early psychosis. In 2019, I graduated from the PAU-Stanford PsyD Consortium, where I trained at the Stanford School of Medicine's psychiatry department and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital's program at a local high school. I attended internship (our version of residency, more or less) at the UC Davis Medical Center, where I received world-class training in the treatment of childhood trauma and early psychosis, both separately and together. I then completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Chicago Child Trauma Center, where I continued to build my expertise in the treatment of childhood trauma. After that, I worked at Kaiser Permanente, Oakland, for two and a half years, where I specialized in working with children and adolescents with complex, persistent symptom presentations, who had often been hospitalized multiple times for safety concerns and struggled to make progress with previous therapists.

You deserve to feel better. Hi, I’m Michelle, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Mindset Coach with over thirty years of experience helping people reduce stress, ease anxiety, and feel more grounded and confident in themselves. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation, one that helps you make sense of your experiences and understand yourself more deeply: how you think, feel, and respond to life, so you can move forward with greater confidence and clarity. Clients often come to me wanting to manage their emotions better or feel more in control of how they react. Many are wrestling with stress, anxiety, or emotional patterns that leave them feeling disconnected or stuck. Together, we work to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, how the nervous system responds to stress, how patterns were formed, and how emotional intelligence can be strengthened in everyday life. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I bring both clinical experience and real-world perspective to our work together, helping you strengthen the relationship with your Self, the part of you that holds awareness, clarity, and inner strength. Together, we focus on learning how to regulate emotions, cultivate a growth mindset, and create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

Hello, I’m Ciarys, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and Texas. As a therapist, I believe that a kind and supportive, client-focused approach is crucial in helping navigate the many challenges that life can bring. I create a warm, nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space where we can explore and address the various thoughts, emotions, experiences, etc. that can make everyday life tough. Life can be full of challenges, and sometimes, seeking professional support can be a game-changer. I’m proud to be able to meet my clients where they are at, as we explore what therapy has to offer. NOTE: At this time I am not able to provide evening or weekend appointments. My current scheduled openings are M-TH 10am - 4pm (Pacific Time) / 12pm - 6pm (Central Time). Please note that I will be also unavailable the month of April and May 2026. I grew up in Los Angeles, California and am currently residing in Austin, TX. I earned my Bachelors in Psychology with a Minor in Chicano/a Studies at the University of California Los Angeles in 2012 and my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree at the University of Southern California in 2018. As a Latina woman, I have had the privilege of serving the Spanish-speaking community in addition to serving English-speakers of all different races and backgrounds. Specifically, I have experience providing counseling services to adolescents, adults and seniors. In 2023 I opened my private practice, Alta Therapy Center, with the hopes of making mental health more accessible.

I believe in this simple recipe: the quality of our relationships impact our happiness and self-worth. As humans, we have an innate need for connection and belonging. During our work together, we will delve into underlying issues and patterns contributing to persistent unhappiness, which often precipitates substance use disorder (SUD). My own journey of recovery started in 2007, and I will bring my personal and professional experience to this relationship. I will be honest and walk through this process with you. I endeavor to cultivate a safe, nonjudgmental and collaborative environment conducive to self-expression, exploration, healing and problem-solving. I started working in this field as a Primary Counselor/Therapist at San Quentin State Prison. I continued my career at residential treatment centers such as Serenity Knolls and Bayside Marin. My professional journey in inpatient/outpatient treatment facilities for substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders dates back to 2018, supplemented by completing Drug and Alcohol Abuse Studies at UC Berkeley. As a Marriage and Family Therapist in California, I have over 7 years of experience working in mental health, where I have collaboratively worked with people struggling with PTSD, co-occurring disorders, SUDs, anxiety, depression, and relational issues, among others. I currently work at Foundations, an Intensive Outpatient Program in San Francisco and see clients virtually in my private practice. “Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn’t mean you can, need, or should do it alone.”Lisa Olivera

You may be on the right path, but stumbled, fell, or got lost along the way. Or you may be struggling to find the path. I want to help. In therapy, I aim to create a calm, sturdy, emotionally open, and radically nonjudgmental space where you can be deeply curious about your own experience. A patient, open-ended space where you can take your time. A space where you can slow down, breathe, reflect, be quiet or silent. A space where you can be loud, angry, triggered, upset. A space where you don't have to make sense, but we can try to make sense of things together. A space where we both can be genuinely curious about who you are.

I’m Juliana Mott Fabio, LCSW, and I specialize in supporting adults who are navigating grief, life transitions, anxiety, and the quiet emotional weight that can build when life feels overwhelming. Many of my clients come to therapy during seasons when they feel unsteady—after a loss, during a major shift in identity or relationships, or when old patterns of coping no longer feel sustainable. My role is to offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, reflect, and understand what you’re carrying with gentleness rather than judgment. With a background in hospice, bereavement counseling, crisis work, and somatic practices, I bring both clinical experience and a deep respect for the human experience. I blend talk therapy with somatic and mindfulness-based tools to help clients reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and feel more present and supported in daily life. Together, we explore what is no longer serving you, strengthen your resilience, and identify new ways of relating to yourself and others. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel seen, understood, and empowered—where you can process your emotions, rebuild your sense of self, and move forward with clarity and confidence. You don’t have to navigate these transitions alone.

Welcome to my profile. I appreciate the chance to help. My name is Angela. I am a psychotherapist with a Psy.D. ABD in Clinical Psychology: Marriage and Family Therapy. We all feel out of balance from time to time. Uncertainty, unexpected disappointments, life transitions and personal traumas can have a real impact on how we feel and experience the world. It can be difficult to navigate on our own. Together, we can figure it out. I have expertise in providing mental health services to individuals both neurotypical and neurodivergent. I have used my skills and competencies in various settings including school-based/educationally-related services and residential treatment settings. I have provided clinical mental health services to K-12 students with Individualized Education Plans (IEP) as well as general education. I have worked with individuals struggling with mood, anxiety, personality and psychotic disorders. I utilize various therapy techniques to assist in healthier living. I will help you counter problematic behavior with healthy alternatives to enhance mental, emotional and physical wellness. I hope to inspire your curiosity and courage to develop a strong sense of self-acceptance, and healing and to promote self-esteem, autonomy and agency. "Growth occurs when individuals confront problems, struggle to master them and through that struggle develop new aspects of their skills capacities and views about life." ~ Carl Rogers, Humanistic Psychologist.

I am a husband, father, and twin brother (I have and identical twin sister). I am also a reiki master and hypnotherapist. When I am not conducting psychotherapy (talk therapy), I enjoy conducting past life regressions to help people resolve past life trauma. I also use hypnotherapy to heal trauma. Hypnotherapy is not covered by most insurances and may result in cash pay. I enjoy helping people identify their wants and needs so they can then identify their goals and dreams. I believe we all have had experiences that have stifled our self-confidence which then causes us to doubt our ability. I enjoy helping people discover that part of themselves that is hidden as a result. I believe the world is a collective of people. We need to take care of ourselves, each other, and the animals we share this planet with. I DO NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPT COUPLES FOR MARRIAGE COUNSELING.

I believe therapy is a means of supporting yourself, a safe place to process emotions, a way to gain clarity, a way to feel supported and a way to feel understood. I value honest, open communication and work to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard without judgment.

As a somatic psychotherapist and longtime creative, I bring together psychology and lived, embodied experience. My background as an actor, writer, and director shapes how I work with the unfolding story of self as it’s felt in the body—moment by moment. Therapy with me emphasizes curiosity, presence, and deep listening to what wants to emerge through sensation, emotion, and relationship.

Hi, I'm Casandra, and I'm glad you are here! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with a master's degree from the University of Southern California. I decided to become a therapist because I love being able to help others. One of my favorite things is getting to know others and helping them to discover (or re-discover) who they are. Getting to help others realize their potential and overall improve their mental and emotional well-being is something I enjoy doing and consider it such a privilege.

Trauma and PTSD
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents and adults across a range of emotional and behavioral concerns. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is supportive, respectful, and non-judgmental, where clients feel safe to explore their experiences openly. I believe that emotional distress is a natural response to life’s challenges and that, with appropriate support, individuals can develop insight, resilience, and effective coping strategies. I am committed to working collaboratively with clients from diverse backgrounds and identities, including LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse individuals, and I prioritize creating an affirming and inclusive therapeutic space.

If you're struggling with stressors, attempting to heal from past traumas, facing anxiety in certain areas of life, or are feeling down I can help you navigate these difficulties. I specialize in anxiety and trauma as well as female and maternal mental health. I have a very person centered approach; meaning that I try to understand fully what brings you in and where you are coming from. Once we have a solid foundation of understanding I assist in evaluating beliefs and processes that keep people stuck, I provide practical skills for relief, and break down barriers to creating and maintaining new habits. I know it can feel overwhelming as you decide who to trust with these needs, your comfort, safety and needs are my main concern. I'll meet you where you are to build a trusting relationship with you and once that is in place you will have a solid foundation for then trusting the process.

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 California. 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.

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 happens during the first therapy 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.
