You are grieving, heartbroken, or lost. You didn’t get the job, you broke up with your partner, someone important has died. Grief is normal and exquisite and painful. You want to talk about it, but you don’t want to burden anyone. Here you have permission to be a burden. To be messy, seen, repetitive, and stuck. I’ll meet you there, but won’t leave you there. We work towards managing the unimaginable. Reckoning with the stories we tell and the paths lost, in order to reconcile with where we truly are. There you will find possibility. New stories, new love, new hope. There you will find the courage to start again.

Do you find yourself repeating family patterns that don’t serve you? This can be due to childhood trauma. Childhood trauma can leave you with the sense that there's something wrong with you; that you are defective/different/unlovable. These feelings are likely projections that you received from your caregivers. If this resonates with you and you want to change those patterns, then I will support you to explore the connection between your past experiences–often from childhood–and your current mindset. I work with Women’s Mental Health Concerns such as Postpartum depression, menopause, Grief, Anxiety, Depression, and job stress.

Naturally, you are meant to grow into your ideal self: self-assured and content. Sometimes, that growth gets blocked. Maybe it’s a past trauma or fear of failure and the unknown. Let’s explore this so we can identify the block and remove it so you can become your best self, the version of you that you were always meant to be.

Hey! My name is Alyssa Thompson Tolosa, you can call me Alyssa.
Is it just me, or does this online search for a therapist thing kinda feel a bit like online dating?
You scroll through profiles, a picture catches your eye, and then you read all the best parts of them and wonder, "Will we be a match?"
It's a highly vulnerable and uncertain experience. There are so many possible matches and way too many people to choose from.
It's overwhelming, but I might just be the right therapist for you.
I'm a licensed therapist in California with 10 years of experience. I am also a certified yoga and barre instructor and have been teaching for 8 years. I believe in your ability to manifest greatness, that you are worthy of all good things no matter what mistakes you've made in the past, and that you have a natural ability to heal any emotional wound. I believe that I am here to be your guide.
I help people fully enjoy life by giving them the tools to confidently navigate life's low points and be more present during life's high points.
I help people...
- get out of their heads and into the present moment so they can experience joy and connection, instead of constantly worrying and being self-critical
- learn how to say "NO" and stop allowing people to take advantage of them
- identify and communicate their needs instead of keeping them bottled up and resenting people for not reading their mind
- break the cycle of generational trauma so they can pass down ways of thinking, being, feeling, and behaving that lead to greater prosperity, joy, and fulfillment
- learn practices that will give them greater control over their emotions so they feel less bothered.

Hello, I'm Amber.
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) accepting in person clients in Sonoma County and virtually from all over California offering individual ($160) and couples sessions ($200). I am passionate about the outdoors, animals, music, art, and new adventures and I try to blend this into my therapy as much as possible. In our sessions, we will spend time building a strong therapeutic relationship that will allow us to identify your strengths, your goals, and how to get you there.
I provide a compassionate, judgement free space and an integrative approach, assessing what interventions or approaches work best for you and tailoring your treatment to meet your needs and I am able to provide a sliding scale payment to make treatment more accessible as well.
I have 9 years working experience, and have been licensed for the past 1 year. I have worked as a Therapist, Clinical Director, and Clinical Case Manager within residential and outpatient settings providing care to adolescents, young adults, veterans, houseless individuals, individuals involved in the legal system, couples, and families. I feel strongly that through building trust and a strong therapeutic relationship, we are able to make progress towards goals and work to heal past trauma or tackle primary obstacles.
I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to see themselves grow and change. I especially enjoy working with adolescents and young adults in exploring who they are and what they want in life, as well as individuals experiencing big life changes.
My clients are open minded, accepting of challenges, and ready to rewrite their stories.

Healing through self-discovery is a powerful means to uncovering your full potential. The relationship starts with yourself. The healing journey is defined by you creating a life you want to live as I work as an aid, the vessel to support you.
Are you struggling with complex trauma, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or life transitions? Is your body storing pain? Are you questioning your purpose, career, and relationships? Are you searching for balance? Is work or family obligations stressing you? Are you feeling disorganized, or are criticizing thoughts getting in your way? Have you held onto a dysfunctional narrative of who you are?
Welcome. I am glad you are here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California, Florida, & Utah. I offer video teletherapy. A little about me. I am a wife, mother of two young adults, and a free-spirited traveler. I know what it is like to feel stuck, yearning for that something. Connection is critical in our search for support.

I offer services via telehealth for individuals.
Problems come from a network of experiences. In our work together, we will investigate these problems: where they come from, how they are supported, what they may be telling you, how you learned from these problems, ways they can be negotiated, and times when they are not present. Nothing is wrong with you. You are simply dealing with problems the best way you know how. As we explore the problems, you will find fresh perspectives and build alternative ways of responding that enable you to build better relationships and handle problems with increased flexibility.
I am an interactive therapist working with you to develop and experience more confidence, focus, and motivation to meet life’s changing demands. I help people who are doing ok on the outside figure out, and understand, why they might feel so overwhelmed on the inside. You can gain insight and clarity and increase your ability to navigate life transitions, anxiety, fear, depression, and/or traumatic experiences that have impacted your quality of life.
