With over to 20 years of experience working alongside children, teens, adults, and families, I’ve learned the importance of meeting people exactly where they are, whether mentally, emotionally, or sometimes even physically. My “out-of-the-box” approach is flexible and adaptable to each individual's unique needs, offering creative, client-centered strategies where you can feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore at your own pace. My journey began in community-based settings, working with individuals and families often navigating complex systems. That foundation shaped my core belief: to show up to each session with curiosity and deep respect for each person’s unique story. My approach has always been to meet clients where they are, helping them discover healthier coping mechanisms and become more effective in their daily lives. Therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all. I tailor each session to your unique needs, integrating different modalities to support your growth in ways that feel natural and accessible to you. As your therapist, I show up as my authentic self, with the intention of creating a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore at your own pace. I offer an environment where you can express yourself freely, gain deeper insight into your thoughts and emotions, and develop tools to navigate life’s challenges more effectively.

Hi! My name is Ayesha and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. I received my Masters from California State University, Sacramento and have been practicing for 6 years. I am a Christian, trauma-focused, strength-based, and humanistic approach therapist. I commonly use person-centered, CBT, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy to support my clients. I value providing a safe non-judgmental and private space for individuals. My goal is to provide warmth and acceptance during sessions and beyond. My journey as a therapist began in my childhood. I was raised by a single mother and experienced poverty throughout my childhood. God has been my strength and anchor. I grew up in diverse settings which has given me the ability to have empathy and hold a safe space for all people, especially marginal communities. Most of my extracurricular activities throughout my life have involved meeting the needs of people. I aspire to be a safe space and sounding board for others and believe giving back is what makes life meaningful.

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, Texas, & Utah. I offer video teletherapy. A little about me. I am a free-spirited traveler, wife, mother. I know what it is like to feel stuck, yearning for that something. Connection is critical in our search for support.

I value warmth and authenticity in my work. I hold an open, curious and non-judgemental stance with a healthy dose of compassion, and right use of humor.

I’d like to support you in finding that wisdom inside yourself. I believe that our struggles and our gifts are two sides to the same coin. The more “lead” we have, the more “gold” is possible to alchemize. I have walked my own path of healing and am driven to support others in finding the same liberation it provides.

Each individual possesses the tools and skills necessary to thrive in life, but these skills need to be identified and honed in order to be put to use and effective. My approach to psychotherapy is to focus on strengths and build resilience as we address problems of living. Life is hard and together we can be brave. My treatment approach is based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy). My primary focus is holistic care, recognizing and treating the whole person. I have spent over 12 years working as a mental health provider in the medical setting, dealing with life and death situations that affect my patients and their families. This work has allowed me to be present for the full range of human experience and recognize the strengths that each individual possesses. I have a background in philosophy, which informs my perspective on the challenges that people face and ways to resolve problems. In addition i have specialized experience working with LGBTI+ individuals. I live in Phoenix and am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice in CA, AZ, and VA.

Hello, my name is Roxanne and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I found my passion of helping others heal and grow long before I began practicing in 2013. I received my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology which was the turning point of transforming my passion and dream into a reality. While on the journey together, I strive to empower you to heal, learn about yourself, and work towards the changes you desire. You are worth it and it is possible! I believe in meeting you exactly where you are at and supporting you in your growth. I am passionate about providing a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore emotions, cry, laugh, and have the freedom to sort through that messy closet and modify it into an organized space that makes sense to you. Reclaiming your life, using your voice, working through trauma, believing in yourself, finding joy, and searching for a sense of wellbeing can be a lifelong process. You have made that first and most courageous step to reach out for support to regain your happiness. Remember that all journeys have obstacles and you are not alone. I believe in change and that every individual has a level of resiliency. You are a strong human and it is typical to have challenges and feel overwhelmed. I look forward to meeting you and am full heartedly ready to embark on this journey together to support you in finding your authentic self. When I am not engaging in my passion of helping others heal, I enjoy activities in nature, spending time with loved ones, shopping, cooking, organizing, and traveling. I enjoy activities that heal my mind, body, and spirit and strive for a balance of work and play.

I am a psychotherapist, a meditation teacher, and an amateur naturalist. In my home country, I am licensed to conduct learning disability evaluations. My growing up was first-hand impacted by 3 very different languages and cultures. These cultures informed the style of my relationships and my esthetic preferences. For as long as I can remember, I have been mystified by human memory functioning, first as a scientist, then as a meditator. Having gone a long way from trying to remember everything I deemed worth remembering to a more effortless and drama-free attitude toward memory-creating moments, I am still making sense of what it means to integrate each moment of life as it comes. Approaching this subject experientially and relationally informs who I am as a practitioner and as a person. If topics like cognitive functioning, memory styles and focus make your curiosity antennas hum, this is a place for you. My approach to psychotherapy is highly relational and somewhat didactic. I love to explain everything I see and say at every step of the process. With me, you will never experience a blank screen characteristic of traditional psychoanalytic approaches (from which I draw inspiration in the realm of dream interpretation and theory).

“Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all.” – Emily Dickinson Often when people are coping with difficult issues in their lives, they do so in silence and isolation. As a psychologist, I want my clients to know they are not alone, and that there is hope. It is important for clients to feel safe to express their feelings openly. It is vital that insight be gained into one’s behavior and how your thoughts and actions can impact the way you feel. As a psychologist, I specialize in treating women coping with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, imposter syndrome, and maternal mental health.I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, where the therapist and client work together. I want my clients to feel empowered, and gain tools that they can utilize to cope with difficult emotions. Where they will feel that they are in control and dictate their own actions, and not allow emotions such as fear or sadness steal their hope and happiness away. I promise that your feelings will be recognized and validated. You will never be judged, and you will be supported throughout your journey. Often feelings of helplessness lead to hopelessness. I want you to know that these feelings can change, and be replaced by feelings of strength and excitement for the future. I provide both video and telephone sessions, let me know what works best for you.
