Are you ready to start digging up the roots of some annoying habits, patterns, or unhealthy tendencies? I would love to accompany you on that endeavor. I help people discover, uncover, and change the early established thoughts and beliefs that keep us in unconscious behavioral loops and cycles. I love using EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) as a tool, as I believe it supports the idea that somewhere inside of ourselves, we know and feel what we truly need in order to heal. I help people reconnect to their bodies and breath, as the body is encumbered in our psychological functioning. I will hold my clients accountable for maintaining healthy lifestyles that include exercise, eating in a way that supports healthy hormone and neurotransmitter balances, and the sacred but often over looked practice of self-care. I work mainly with those struggling with anxiety, body focused repetitive behaviors (trichotillomania, for example), low self esteem, transitions, and processing/integrating grief. I also offer ketamine assisted therapy, which is another great tool for reconnecting to your inner healer.

With over 16 years of experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, I focus on helping adults move forward by building on your strengths and finding practical solutions to challenges like anxiety, depression, and life purpose.

Hi, I'm Lydia. Do you often place others' needs before your own? Is it usually easier to guess what others are feeling, rather than being able to identify your feelings? Do your relationships often feel one-sided, and you end up feeling resentful? I support and empower individuals and couples to overcome challenges with anxiety, worry, codependency, and perfectionism, and create healthier relationships with a felt-sense of safety, equality, respect, and trust. I love combining conversation and body movement, to discover what is being held inside the body, waiting to be expressed and healed. Together we identify and explore new ways of being in the world from a state of safety, through healing trauma and not buying into societal attempts to pressure us to act and be a certain way. Therapy can be a bit scary and overwhelming if you've never experienced it before. I am committed to creating a safe, empathic, and non-judgmental space for you to practice being true to your own personality, values, and spirit. I look forward to our working together!

Hi, I'm Celina. As a second-generation Latina, I bring an informed perspective to the challenges many communities of color face, including the impact of systemic inequities, identity struggles, and cultural barriers.

My goal is to walk beside you on your journey toward wellness so that when you leave, you feel empowered, grounded, and ready for what's ahead.

But one of my interns taught me how to answer texts, and now my younger family friends are teaching me how to use iPads and streaming videos. I hope that these experiences give me some insight into how things are changing and how some things don’t change at all. I’d like to accompany you as you try to work through your life challenges.

Hi, I’m Stephany Thompson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with people across the entire lifespan—kids finding their voice, teens navigating identity and independence, adults balancing work and family, and older adults seeking meaning in later stages of life. No matter your age or stage, I believe therapy should feel like having a teammate in your corner: someone who listens deeply, challenges gently, and helps you discover tools that actually fit your world. Instead of a “one-size-fits-all” approach, I meet you right where you are. For children, that might mean using play and creativity to help them express big feelings. For teens, it’s often about providing a safe space to sort through stress, identity, and relationships. For adults, therapy might focus on managing anxiety, navigating transitions, or reconnecting with a sense of purpose.
