Hi, I’m Kamisha — a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Certified Sex Therapist based in California. I help high-functioning adults manage anxiety, depression, work-related stress, and major life transitions with clarity, compassion, and emotional depth. I offer individual therapy for adults on the Grow Therapy platform with a focus on those who are navigating big internal shifts while maintaining full external lives. Many of my clients are juggling personal relationships, professional pressure, and identity exploration — often without space to process how it’s all impacting them. If you’re feeling overwhelmed but high-functioning, stuck but self-aware, or just ready to get unstuck, therapy with me can help you reconnect with your inner voice and make intentional choices rooted in your values. While I work with a range of concerns, I specialize in: Anxiety and burnout Mild to moderate depression Life transitions (career shifts, moves, relationship changes) Relational stress for individuals in monogamous and consensual non-monogamous (CNM) relationships Identity exploration and emotional wellness for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ adults My therapeutic style is collaborative, affirming, sex-positive, and culturally grounded. I draw from narrative therapy and trauma-informed care to help clients explore the stories they’ve internalized — and support them in reshaping those narratives in ways that feel more aligned and liberating. Please note: I currently do not offer therapy for couples, families, or individuals seeking support for high-acuity concerns such as eating disorders, active substance use, suicidal ideation, personality disorders, OCD, chronic pain, neurodivergence, religious trauma, grief and loss, or psychiatric hospitalization. If you’re looking for a safe space to reflect, recalibrate, and grow, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

25 years as a clinical social worker has taught me that finding the right therapist is like trying on a pair of shoes. It has to be the right fit for you to start the journey of self-exploration. I believe in a strength based approach, where we not only explore the issues that brought you to therapy, but we explore how to expand the things that bring you joy and happiness. As Dr. Seuss once said, “life is a great balancing act” and he could not have been more right. My practice focuses on individual therapy for adolescents, and adults. My areas of expertise include depression, mood disorders, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, ADHD, Trauma, and transitional issues of work, relationships, etc. Client’s describe me as genuine and authentic, supportive, strength based, straight forward, and always keeping hope alive.

Hey bestie! I’m Saira Patino—your mental health cheerleader and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I’ve been in the field since 2010 and earned my MSW from Edinboro University in 2017, but beyond the credentials, I’m also you. I’ve battled depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, body image struggles, and the unique challenges that come with being a Mexican-American, first-gen Latina. I know what it’s like to grow up with parents who think therapy is only for “gente loca” and to feel torn between two cultures while trying to figure out who the hell you are. That’s why I show up to this work with realness, warmth, and zero judgment. Whether you’re dealing with burnout, identity issues, or just trying to hold it all together—I gotchu. My vibe is more comadre than clinical, and I create a space where you can be yourself, speak your Spanglish, laugh, cry, and start healing for you. We’ll go at your pace, and I’ll walk with you every step of the way as you learn to trust yourself and build the life you deserve.

Welcome! My name is Tamer, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked for nearly 10 years in different capacities such as refugee resettlement, disability rights, substance use recovery, community health, and LGBTQIA+ centered care. I am most excited about creative self-expression, and I believe in person-centered approaches to understand the powerful role that stories play in shaping our everyday lives. I also find tremendous value in working together to deconstruct how these stories show up in the context of anxiety, stress, depression, and trauma. Seeking therapy is one of the most courageous steps you can take for yourself. Whether you want to heal past wounds, resolve conflict in your relationships, or better manage the stressors of life, therapy is the space where your goals and values are prioritized. It is where you can feel safe to be vulnerable and open. Because there is no singular way to engage in treatment, therapy does not conform to strict constructs, norms, or stereotypes. Rather, therapy is meant to reflect your authentic self and promote the innate power you hold. The right therapist should honor the nuances of your life’s journey, while also helping explore the path forward that you want to lead. In the words of Brené Brown, “Story stewardship means honoring the sacred nature of story–the ones we share and the ones we hear–and knowing that we’ve been entrusted with something valuable or that we have something that we should treat with respect and care." I look forward to honoring your journey here, and your journey forward. Thank you so much!
