Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience providing individual and couples therapy, with a focus on women’s emotional wellness and relationship concerns. I work with women who find themselves stuck in recurring relationship patterns, struggling with self-worth, or feeling overwhelmed by the pressure of balancing work, relationships, caregiving roles, and personal needs. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, while also grounded in evidence-based practices. Together, we explore emotional and relational patterns, strengthen communication and boundaries, and develop practical tools to support greater clarity, confidence, and balance. Whether you’re navigating a life transition, relationship stress, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy offers a space to slow down, gain insight, and create meaningful change. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of New Hampshire and my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Assumption College. I also complete ongoing continuing education to stay current with research, clinical best practices, and effective treatment approaches.

Finding the right therapist is often the most difficult step in the healing journey. It requires finding a balance between someone who deeply understands the science of the mind and someone who genuinely cares about the person sitting across from them. With 13 years of clinical practice, I have dedicated my career to being that balance for my clients. My approach is rooted in the belief that while our pasts shape us, they do not have to define our future. I specialize in two of the most effective, evidence-based frameworks available today: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Through CBT, we work together to identify and reshape the thought patterns that keep you feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed. We look at the "why" behind your actions and replace old, automatic responses with intentional, healthy choices. Through DBT, I help you build a concrete toolkit for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Whether you are navigating intense emotional "storms" or simply looking to improve the quality of your relationships, these skills provide a roadmap for stability. Over a decade of practice has taught me that there is no "one-size-fits-all" solution. I view our work as a collaborative partnership; you are the expert on your life, and I am here to provide the clinical expertise and objective perspective to help you navigate it. My goal is to move beyond just "venting" and toward tangible, lasting change. I provide a non-judgmental, warm, and structured environment where you can feel safe to explore your vulnerabilities while being challenged to grow. Together, we won't just talk about the life you want—we will build the skills necessary to live it.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) originally from just outside of New York City and currently live in San Diego. Working to support the mental health of others is truly my greatest honor. We are often programmed by our previous experiences, culture, and past trauma to believe a false narrative about ourselves. Utilizing the therapeutic alliance, I help clients to resolve negative, false, or limiting beliefs that may be hindering their ability to step into their true identities. We do not have to continue to live out the script that we inherited or feel the need to live in the shadows. Instead, we can live with intension, purpose, and a sense of gratitude.

I someone who is grounded in the natural world and systems around me. I use the natural systems of our surroundings to inform my personal and clinical work. I understand on a deep level how challenging and out of control life can feel at times. I personally have found it lifesaving to rely on a power greater than myself in times of confusion and feeling lost. I believe fully in the capabilities and self-knowledge that my clients already have inside themselves. My work as a non-pathologizing, Humanistic Gestalt Psychotherapist is client centered and strength based. I work relationally and rely on Transpersonal, Jungian, and EcoPsychology roots as pillars of guidance. I use somatic techniques, parts work, poetry and mindfulness exercises to support the expansion of present moment awareness. I may also use dream-work, inner child work and CBT to facilitate a different angle of self-discovery. Whoever you are, and wherever you have come from, please know that you are welcome here. Your healing journey or path of self-discovery will be as unique as you are... I welcome all races, classes, religions, sexual orientations, gender expressions, nuero-divserities, cultures, able-isms, sexualities, and bodies. I use a trauma informed, all-inclusive social justice lens and aim to draw awareness to systems of oppression that manifest in sneaky ways in our everyday encounters. I work with individual, couples and children. In the past I have worked with edlers, healers, sensitive types, activists, athletes, multicultural backgrounds, and people who have experienced corporate burnout.

Being a therapist is a lifelong passion for me and is rooted in my dedication to supporting adults, children, families, and communities in building safety, resilience, and hope. My journey has taken me from my home county of Santa Cruz where I advocated and ran groups for youth living in situations including domestic violence from 2011-2013, to working as a shelter counselor in Oakland for youth 13-21 from 2016-2018. I worked in serving famillies with San Francisco Child and Family Services, where I partnered with families navigating reunification with their children while providing psychoeducation and crisis counseling during critical moments from 2018-2022. I have been licensed with my LCSW since May 2025 and focused my prior professional development around harm reduction and culturally focused treatment, aligning with my commitment to social justice and culturally responsive care.

About Labrini Gilpin, LPCC, CCM: Hi! My name is Labrini and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who resides and practices in the state of California (LPCC4154). In regards to my background and education, I received a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice, and a Master of Arts in Forensic Psychology. I attended Roger Williams University in Rhode Island and later moved to California in 2017, where I became licensed as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and Certified Case Manager (CCM). Mental health and physical wellness has always been a passion of mine and I strive to lead by example. On a more personal note, in 2020 my husband and I adopted two rescues who are now permanent members of the family: Popeye and Olive Oil. I am a pet lover and consider them to be trials that then led to my two beautiful boys. When I am not chasing after my puppies or little humans, in my free time I like to engage in activities that restore my mind, body, and soul whether that be through exercise, streaming shows, meditation, writing, listening to music, reading, or spending time with family and friends. Taking long walks with my kids has become a tradition. Nature is my happy place!

Hi! I'm Ceylan . My name is pronounced "Jay-lahn". I'm Turkish. Are you dissatisfied with your life? Your relationships? Your work? Are you over-thinking? Are you beating yourself up? Are you struggling to make decisions about how to move forward to build the life you really want? Maybe you even know what you want but you are blocked somehow from moving forward? Therapy is a wonderful place to explore and overcome what is standing in your way. Whether you have unresolved trauma which created thoughts and behaviors which are no longer helpful to you. Or you’re struggling to connect to others and unable to form and keep supportive and meaningful relationships. Maybe your daily habits, or even addictions, are keeping you from being your best self. For over 13 years now, I have been supporting folks in their mental health recovery journey by creating a safe space to explore what it would take to have a fulfilling and meaningful life. Much of this journey involves clarifying and aligning with personal core values, improving relationships, and implementing healthier and more enjoyable coping skills and daily routines. I know the real you is in there, possibly blocked by self-doubt and unhelpful thoughts that could be saying "who do you think you are to ask for more?" You have one precious and fleeting life! Let’s explore together how to make the most of it. I believe in you!

Hello, I’m Sharon Price. Are you feeling overwhelmed by the weight of trauma, depression, or anxiety? Do you often feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward? You don’t have to face these challenges alone—I’m here to support you every step of the way. With over seven years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I’ve helped clients of all ages—from young children to adults—find healing and hope. My work has included supporting children and families in foster care through the impacts of trauma and loss, as well as guiding adults through the complexities of anxiety, depression, and strained relationships. I understand that carrying the burdens of the past or the weight of daily struggles can feel isolating and exhausting. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your unique needs. Together, we can explore the underlying causes of your pain, work to heal emotional wounds, and develop tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control of your life. Whether you’re seeking to rebuild trust in your relationships, learn new ways to communicate, or simply find a safe space to unpack your thoughts and emotions, I’m here to help. Healing is possible, and I’d be honored to walk this journey with you. Let’s find your path forward together.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I specialize in working with adults, couples, and adolescents who feel overwhelmed by trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted — stuck in negative thought patterns, disconnected from their partner, constantly on edge, or weighed down by past experiences they cannot seem to move beyond. In our work together, I provide a supportive, structured, and collaborative space where we identify patterns, build emotional awareness, and develop practical tools that create meaningful change. I integrate evidence-based approaches to help you regulate emotions, improve communication, strengthen boundaries, and rebuild trust — both with yourself and with others. Therapy is about helping you understand your story, shift unhelpful cycles, and move toward the life and relationships you want. If you are ready to feel more grounded, connected, and empowered, I invite you to reach out. Change begins with one conversation — and you do not have to navigate this alone.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with adults and children who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from themselves. You may be doing everything you can to keep going—showing up for work or school, caring for others, and managing daily life—while quietly carrying anxiety, sadness, anger, or deep exhaustion. Sometimes your reactions feel bigger than expected. Sometimes life just doesn’t feel like it used to. I specialize in trauma-informed care and understand that these experiences are not signs of weakness. They are often signs that your mind and body have been working hard to cope. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, understood, and supported at your own pace. In our work together, I offer a calm and steady presence. Therapy with me is not about pushing you to “just move on” or forcing change before you’re ready. It’s about slowing down, listening to what your mind and body are holding, and creating space for relief and clarity. My role is to walk alongside you as you regain a sense of stability and reconnect with the part of you that holds resilience, strength, and the capacity for joy—even if that feels far away right now.

As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my deep empathy, active listening, and a commitment to mindful curiosity. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where your unique story can be truly heard and valued. Rather than simply diagnosing a problem, I listen for the 'hidden' stories of your strengths and values that often get overshadowed. My approach to active listening is about more than just understanding; it’s about standing alongside you to deconstruct the challenges you face and uncover the skills you already possess. Together, we will collaborate to rewrite the narratives that no longer serve you, fostering a therapeutic relationship built on trust, respect, and the reclamation of your personal agency.

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.
