Hello!
My name is Lisa Thiel and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of individuals from all backgrounds. I started my career working with children and families focusing on attachment and family relations. I currently work with individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, addiction, and personality disorders. I encourage my clients to think about what they want their lives to look like and then we work to get there. It is always a collaborative relationship and everyone benefits from learning new skills they can take with them for the rest of their lives.
Thanks for visiting my page. It's not lost on me what an important decision it is to find a therapist who is a good fit. I will make this as painless as possible. If you are looking for a therapist who is approachable, open-minded, empathetic, AND can also challenge you gently, then I could be a good fit for therapy. Therapy is necessary work and should be a place where you can let it all out and expect profound change if you're open to digging deep.
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) seeking to offer a safe and welcoming space for individuals to access their own inner abilities to heal. For the past decade I have worked as a therapist for individuals across the life span in outpatient, private practice, and school-based settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, OCD, perinatal depression and anxiety, and trauma-related stressors. My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, person-centered, and collaborative. I am a trained Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist, and blend somatic and mindfulness practices with cognitive behavioral therapy to fit each individual’s unique needs. I welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals of any race, ethnicity, religion, or cultural background. Choosing to begin therapy is a courageous step, and I look forward to embarking on this work with you.
I'm Nakila Hill, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) committed to offering compassionate and supportive therapy. I focus on meeting clients exactly where they are in their personal journeys, assisting them in progressing towards their aspirations and goals. Specializing in depression, anxiety, and trauma-focused therapy, I create a safe and nurturing environment that encourages healing, personal growth, and positive transformation. My approach is client-centered, fostering empowerment and resilience in each individual's life.
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.

I bring this perspective into my work, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, strengths-based, and mindfulness approaches to support clients in ways that are practical, respectful, and individualized.

My areas of focus include men's issues, anxiety, depression, relationship dynamics, and psychotic disorders. I believe the most effective therapy is rooted in authenticity and mutual respect. My approach is collaborative and direct; I provide a safe, honest space to explore your challenges, focusing on practical truths rather than avoidance.
I am a Vietnamese- and English-speaking psychotherapist with more than 20 years of clinical experience supporting individuals across diverse backgrounds and life circumstances. I am deeply committed to fostering healing at the individual, family, and community levels, recognizing the interconnected nature of emotional well-being.
My goal as a therapist is to provide a compassionate and supportive space for individuals navigating life's challenges, whether they are managing stress, striving for greater work-life balance, or processing personal, intergenerational, or cultural trauma. I work collaboratively with clients to strengthen their resilience, reconnect with their inner strengths, and cultivate meaningful emotional healing and personal growth.
At the heart of my practice is the belief that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, validated, and genuinely understood. I strive to create a safe, culturally responsive, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences and move toward lasting change.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 16 years of experience. One of my main focus has been trauma and infant mental health, providing dyadic treatment to families.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. I graduated from California State University Northridge with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, and furthered my education at Antioch University Los Angeles, where I obtained a Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology, specializing in Marriage and Family Therapy.
I’ve had the privilege of working with different demographics in a range of therapeutic environments. I’ve worked with teens in the high school setting, with individuals struggling with substance abuse and eating disorders, as well as patients with depression, anxiety, low self esteem, trauma, toxic relationships, and co-dependency.
I generally combine the use of both humanistic and client-centered psychotherapy in my work. With that said, I tailor my services to each client and their clinical needs. While accompanying my clients on their journey of change and growth, I provide them with unconditional compassion and acceptance. My goal is to cultivate an authentic human connection with my clients by creating a safe and comfortable space to explore, promoting growth, and facilitating change.
Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in California. I earned my Master's degree from Johns Hopkins University and have accumulated six years of experience in the field. My primary focus in practice revolves around assisting individuals grappling with high anxiety, including Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I empower my clients by fostering a deep understanding of how their brain works and coming up with strategies to align their actions with their cherished values.
Many of the clients I work with are carrying a lot. They may look like they're functioning on the outside—working, parenting, caregiving, and showing up for others—while internally feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California with 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life's challenges and transitions. I work primarily with adults navigating relationship stress, communication difficulties, grief in its many forms, burnout, identity development, and the emotional weight of trying to "hold it all together." Many of my clients are asking themselves questions like: Who am I outside of survival mode? How do I show up as my best self? How do I communicate my needs more clearly and create healthier relationships?
My goal is to provide a supportive space where clients can better understand themselves, build practical tools for navigating life's challenges, and create meaningful, sustainable changes that align with the person they want to be.
I’m a trauma-informed therapist who helps adults heal from anxiety, trauma, burnout, and painful relationship patterns using EMDR therapy and a mind-body approach. Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck in cycles of self-doubt, overwhelm, or disconnection, appearing “fine” on the outside while feeling anything but on the inside. My goal is to create a safe, grounding space where you can explore what’s beneath the surface, release what’s been weighing you down, and reconnect with the most authentic version of yourself.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is at the heart of my work. It’s an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity. Through gentle bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping), the mind can integrate painful experiences in a more adaptive way. Clients often describe EMDR as life-changing- it allows healing to occur on a deeper, neurological level, often when talk therapy alone hasn’t been enough. My style is collaborative, intuitive, and compassionate. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you. Together, we’ll help you feel safe in your body, clear in your mind, and at peace within yourself.
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), in Southern California. I have 8 years experience in working with adults and families. My therapeutic style includes an unwavering commitment to working together in pursuit of your mental well-being. My communication style is personable, relaxed and encouraging. My goal is to create a safe space to process your thoughts without judgement.
I am an affirmative therapist and am LGBTQIA+ allied (I myself identify as gender queer and pansexual), BLM allied, Indigenous/native allied, API allied, Latinx allied, Disability allied, Deaf allied, Vegan allied (I myself am Vegan), and polyamory allied. I specialize in serving patients suffering suicide loss at any stage of the loss. I also specialize in attachment/family systems informed individual care and CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia). I also hold particular interest and experience in serving adults with ASD, ID or DD, adult children of narcissists, those who have suffered brainwashing and those who have suffered paranormal trauma.
I have years of experience in serving patients with a multitude of mental health and relational difficulties. I consider my orientation as a therapist to be first and foremost client-centered and strength-based. Although I utilize various therapeutic approaches, I chiefly consider myself to be a narrative/Rogerian therapist. This means that I work to help my patients take back the power and control over their own stories and assist them by co-authoring a narrative that truly witnesses and respects their traumas, tragedies, injustices, achievements, triumphs, milestones, strengths, and resiliency. I do this while holding empathy, congruency and unconditional positive regard as my three major tenants in the therapeutic alliance.
I specialize in therapy for: adult individuals suffering depression, anxiety, interpersonal/relational difficulties, traumatic grief, suicide loss, relational and attachment traumas, victims of psychological torture/emotional abuse/brainwashing, adult children of narcissists, sufferers of paranormal traumas, military and first-responder trauma, vegans, LGBTQIA+, adults with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Intellectual Disability (ID), Developmental disabilities (DD), people struggling with life stressors, and those struggling with identity.
As a therapist, my primary commitment is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment. Building trust is fundamental to the therapeutic process, and I approach each client with empathy, compassion, and genuine respect for their unique journey. I recognize that seeking therapy can be a courageous and vulnerable step and I am dedicated to creating a therapeutic alliance grounded in mutual respect, honesty, and confidentiality. Your well-being is my utmost priority, and I am here to support you.

Hello! My name is Gloria Rojas and I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience in the mental health field. Outside of private practice, I work as a Director of Mental Health for a community-based mental health agency. I graduated from California State University, Long Beach with a Master’s in Social Work and a Pupil Personnel Services Credential in School Social Work and Child Welfare and Attendance. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe space to process, heal and rebuild.
My services can be provided to clients with the following concerns: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma, behavioral issues, ADHD, loss/grief, acute stress, adjustment to life transitions, women's issues, parenting, relationship difficulties, generational trauma, and cultural issues. All services can be provided in English and Spanish.
I was inspired to become a therapist because I truly love helping others and feel a great privilege to be trusted with assisting someone on their journey to healing. I am driven to do this work every day because I have been blessed with experiencing the power of mental health services in my own family of origin. Additionally, as a professional and mother, I hope to serve as an example to others of overcoming obstacles, social pressures, and cultural dynamics to have a balance and thrive in all areas of life.
You're the expert on your own life. My role is to listen first. I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood.
Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities that others may not see. They may be balancing cultural expectations, family responsibilities, demanding careers, relationship challenges, or the emotional impact of trauma, grief, or a chronic health condition. Others are navigating major life transitions and wondering how to move forward while staying true to themselves.
I provide culturally responsive, client-centered therapy in both English and Mandarin. I especially enjoy working with immigrants, children of immigrants, students, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, burnout, perfectionism, relationship concerns, and life transitions.
As the founder of UCLight Therapy and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I hold both master's and doctorate degrees in social work from the University at Albany, State University of New York. Over the past decade, I've taught in higher education and conducted research on the mental health of Asian American and Hispanic communities, deepening my understanding of how culture, family, and life experiences shape emotional well-being.
Living with a significant medical condition has also strengthened my appreciation for grief, resilience, and hope. While everyone's journey is different, it has reinforced my commitment to creating a compassionate space where clients feel deeply understood and supported. My goal isn't simply to reduce symptoms—it's to help you reconnect with your strengths and build a life that reflects your values.
As a Latino male LCSW therapist, I bring a rich background of experience and education to my practice. Having studied at Columbia University, I have honed my skills to provide comprehensive support to individuals from diverse backgrounds.

Utilizing a range of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness techniques, and trauma-focused approaches, I tailor my therapeutic interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. My practice is deeply rooted in a commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, and I strive to create a safe and affirming space for all clients.
With a strong emphasis on social justice and advocacy, I am dedicated to addressing systemic barriers and promoting positive change within both the therapeutic setting and the broader community. My goal is to empower clients to navigate life’s challenges with resilience, self-awareness, and compassion, fostering growth and transformation along the way.

You don’t have to figure this out alone—I’m excited to embark on this journey with you and help you navigate this process at a pace that feels right for you.
In our work together, I pull from a few different modalities in my wheelhouse: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotion regulation and boundaries, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma‐Focused CBT (T‐CBT) for shifting unhelpful thought patterns, Motivational Interviewing for getting unstuck and building momentum, Family Systems for understanding family dynamics, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for living more in line with what truly matters to you. We might lean on one approach or blend several, but the goal is always the same—to help you feel more grounded, more understood, and more equipped to handle real-life stress, not just “therapy room” problems

Are you searching for a therapist with warmth, compassion, and proven experience to help you with the challenges you’re facing in life? Are you looking for actual tools to manage thoughts and emotions? Hi, I am Serina Harris. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 18 years of experience proudly serving adults in the San Francisco Bay Area. As an Integrative Therapist I provide you with a culturally sensitive and non-judgmental space that invites you to embrace change, challenge unhelpful patterns and be more of who YOU are. Whether it's navigating the complexities of depression and anxiety, managing various symptoms of ADHD, perimenopause, or fostering healthy family relationships and communication, I am here to help.
Feeling overwhelmed by the constant stress of just getting through the day? Is all the negativity and stress on your mind holding you back from living the life you really want? You are not alone. This may be one of the most important decisions you ever make. Taking this first step towards therapy shows how brave and resilient you are. Yes, YOU! I am here to help you, support you, and walk beside you on your journey to yourself.
*Availability & Schedule:
My office hours are M-F 9am-5pm. I am not available on weekends. I see clients weekly or every other week depending on clinical need and treatment plan.
If you are navigating a major life transition, constantly fighting a wave of anxiety, or feeling stuck in repetitive relationship patterns, you don't have to carry it alone. You deserve a space where you can let your guard down without fear of judgment. I provide a warm, lighthearted, and deeply collaborative environment where we work entirely at your pace. Because traditional talk therapy doesn't always reach the root of deep-seated stress or trauma, I integrate evidence-based, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches—including EMDR, CBT, and Brainspotting—to help you heal from the inside out.
I am a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 8 years of experience helping adolescents and adults manage and foster positive change through the lens of psychology. Driven by a genuine desire to make a difference, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their lives, fostering growth, resilience, and meaningful connections. I hold a master's degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and Health Psychology from Santa Clara University.
