During our work together, we will delve into underlying issues and patterns contributing to persistent unhappiness, which often precipitates substance use disorder (SUD).

I endeavor to cultivate a safe, nonjudgmental and collaborative environment conducive to self-expression, exploration, healing and problem-solving. I started working in this field as a Primary Counselor/Therapist at San Quentin State Prison. I continued my career at residential treatment centers such as Serenity Knolls and Bayside Marin. My professional journey in inpatient/outpatient treatment facilities for substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders dates back to 2018, supplemented by completing Drug and Alcohol Abuse Studies at UC Berkeley. As a Marriage and Family Therapist in California, I have over 7 years of experience working in mental health, where I have collaboratively worked with people struggling with PTSD, co-occurring disorders, SUDs, anxiety, depression, and relational issues, among others. I currently work at Foundations, an Intensive Outpatient Program in San Francisco and see clients virtually in my private practice. “Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn’t mean you can, need, or should do it alone.”Lisa Olivera

Hello! I'm Melissa. I love what I do! Counseling people is my life's work. Been doing it 20 years. Whatever you are going through, I can assure you, I've worked with someone who's dealt with something similar. I specialize in treating addiction, worked in 5 in-patient drug & alcohol treatment centers/rehabs in my career (mostly w/men).

Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California with over 30 years of experience supporting individuals as they heal from trauma, deepen self-understanding, and reconnect with their inner resilience. I believe healing happens in a space that feels safe, curious, and collaborative. You may be feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed—carrying pain from past experiences that still echo in your present. Often, we don’t even realize how much our family of origin, early attachment patterns, or subtle relational wounds (like feeling invisible, verbally criticized, or emotionally neglected) shape how we relate to ourselves and others today. These so-called “little t” traumas—such as a lack of belonging or chronic invalidation—can be just as harmful as more visible “big T” traumas. Whatever the source of pain, my role is to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been hidden, hurt, or exiled—and to gently guide you toward wholeness and relief.

Hey there friend, I’m Dr. Ryan Terao. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in supporting those doing their best to navigate this experience we call life. I partner with my clients to discover, observe, and reconnect them with their values and find more effective ways to achieve their goals. In each session, I aim to provide my clients with new perspectives and tangible skills to adjust their mindsets to help them be more intentional in living out their values in their life.
