Hi, I'm Taylere! Finding a therapist and embarking on a journey of healing is brave, I am glad you're here. Starting therapy can feel awkward. You might not know where to begin, feel unsure of what to say, or worry that you’re “doing it wrong.” (For the record, there’s no such thing.) My goal is to create a space that feels warm, safe, and human, where you can show up exactly as you are messy thoughts, big feelings, and all the things. I’ve loved exploring people’s stories and helping them make sense of their experiences ever since I started training in therapy. I’m passionate about understanding how early life experiences shape who we are today, while also offering practical tools to cope and grow. I strive to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and non-judgmental, where you can be curious about yourself, build insight, and feel empowered to make meaningful changes. Outside of work, I love to read fantasy books, take my dog for a walk, and go to concerts.

Hello dear reader, I am Carol, born and raised in Malaysia and have been residing in the US for over three decades since my undergraduate years in New England and eventually resettling in Southern California. Prior to my full time work as a therapist, I spent most of my life engaged in social justice work focused on racial solidarity building, immigrant rights and worker rights advocacy and in the anti-violence against women movement. I have a background in healing and prevention work within public health, health and community mental health agencies, immigration, family and criminal court-based trauma services, in academia, with global NGOs on women's health services for over three decades in the US and South East Asia. This drive to engage in social change work stemmed from my experiences growing up as a child of working class immigrants in Asia, having experienced, embodied and witnessed the painful effects and realities of racism, colorism, classism and xenophobia, from as young as I can remember. Gratefully, I also experienced the antidote in the goodness, solidarity, strengths, creativity, joy, mutual aid, deep friendships, faith, spirituality and community caring for each other, amidst life's hurdles. As a child, I strived to be a part of the solution, not a bystander, but an agent of social change, to knit communities in solidarity for peace. As a grown person, I have met my calling in bearing witness for healing harms done to the soul, holding a nurturing, loving and protective space for those looking to mend the raw and painful places that have yet to be tended, to find or reclaim the innate voice of your wisdom to speak your truth and to build, rebuild or restore inner strength and confidence.

Hi, I’m Ravina, a licensed therapist (LPCC, #16404) with a deeply personal mission to create brave, healing spaces where individuals can grow, unlearn, and embrace alignment with their authentic selves. I am also a spoken word artist, published author, speaker, and cat mama of two. Through my own journey, I learned that silencing myself felt safer, people-pleasing seemed preferable, and stepping into the back row was easier than claiming my full voice. I lived for years with anxiety, trauma, and depression in the background, believing this was normal. Over time, I was fortunate to access spaces where I could process trauma, unlearn cultural conditioning, and center my voice. As both a professional artist and therapist, I’ve embraced the truth that my story matters—and I deeply believe yours does too. In sessions, I draw from a range of evidence-based and intersectional approaches, including CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic and Interpersonal Therapy, and Attachment-Based approaches. While these methods are well-established, I intentionally de-center colonial and outdated techniques, keeping your goals, needs, and lived experience at the forefront. My aim is to create a warm, purposeful space where therapy feels authentic to you. I honor that therapy is not one-size-fits-all; it should not feel cold, rigid, or dictated by someone else’s agenda. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship, respecting your time, and supporting your intentional choice to be here. Some journeys last months, others years—but together we work consistently and purposefully so you can move from surviving to thriving, and bloom into alignment with your true self. I am honored to witness your healing journey, exploring, unlearning, re-learning, and embracing all parts of your story as we navigate life, symptoms, and growth—together.

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 Domestic Violence?

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. For example, your selected specialty, Domestic Violence, is filtering therapists in California that work with patients with similar concerns.

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 to expect during your first 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.
