Hi, I’m Jamie Pimentel—welcome to Your Therapy Café. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, licensed in California and Montana, specializing in treating OCD and anxiety disorders. I work primarily with women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s who are tired of living in constant overdrive—overthinking every decision, feeling trapped in anxiety, or stuck in the exhausting cycle of OCD. These decades can bring exciting changes but also intense pressure, perfectionism, and self-doubt. My role is to help you navigate it all with more ease, clarity, and confidence. This work is deeply personal to me. I know from lived experience how intrusive thoughts and overwhelming fears can take over your days and steal your peace of mind. That’s why I’m so passionate about creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can talk about anything—even the thoughts you’ve never said out loud. Using proven approaches like ERP, CBT, and ACT, I help my clients quiet the mental noise, break free from compulsions, and build the tools they need to feel calmer, more grounded, and back in control of their lives. You don’t have to do this alone—there is a path forward.

Hi there. I'm Steve. I specialize in relationships of all kinds, especially romantic/intimate/sexual and including ethical nonmonogamy (ENM). I believe living in the world today means the demands for your attention are often relentless, sometimes making you overwhelmed, stuck, or feeling like you've lost touch. Think of therapy as a place where you and I show up for YOU—for that very blessed being you get to be, this whole life. In turn, this helps all your relationships thrive, which again, helps you thrive too! We all have a natural drive to adapt, learn, and grow, and we do so in relationships—with ourselves, with others, with ideas and values, and with the world. You and I will listen closely—from where you are right now—to help reconnect you to your innate tendency to grow and change in desired ways. This may very well mean tolerating more friction and tension at first. It’s alright. You will get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. Over time, knowing how you feel, think, and act—right here and now—will help you make better choices, recharge your sense of well-being, and enliven your relationships.

Hello! I'm Gustavo Olvera and I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT), serving clients via telehealth throughout the State of California. My long-time approach to therapy is to meet the client where they are and work with them to identify goals that will help them improve their quality of life.

I believe we can all achieve our desired goals by increasing and maintaining a positive outlook on our mental health. What attracted me to wanting to become a therapist was my true and honest desire to help others. Seeing how clients benefit from therapy, seeing how clients can truly overcome their mental illness, and seeing how clients can return to normal and healthy day-to-day living is what drives me to continue to do the work that I do. Today I invite you, to allow yourself to start your journey to a better tomorrow; I am inviting you to take a chance.
