Hi, I’m Dr. Tiona Sykes (Dr. T), a Black woman therapist, LMFT, and PsyD‑trained clinician. I specialize in supporting high‑functioning women, men, and gender‑expansive individuals who are navigating anxiety, identity confusion, faith‑based challenges, relational stress, and major life transitions. My clients are thoughtful, capable people who carry a lot internally while still showing up for everyone else — and they’re ready for therapy that helps them feel more grounded, clear, and connected to themselves. I work especially well with faith‑centered adults (Christian men and women navigating the nuances of spirituality, sex, trauma, and family expectations) and therapists/clinicians (graduate students, associates, and licensed providers seeking emotionally attuned, identity‑focused support). These clients often need a therapist who understands both the emotional load they carry and the complexity of their internal world. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply attuned. I blend evidence‑based tools with identity‑centered work, helping you understand what’s happening beneath the surface so you can make meaningful shifts in your relationships, boundaries, and emotional world. Many clients begin feeling relief within 6–10 sessions, and others choose to continue longer depending on their goals.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) originally from just outside of New York City and currently live in San Diego. Working to support the mental health of others is truly my greatest honor.

Utilizing the therapeutic alliance, I help clients to resolve negative, false, or limiting beliefs that may be hindering their ability to step into their true identities. We do not have to continue to live out the script that we inherited or feel the need to live in the shadows. Instead, we can live with intension, purpose, and a sense of gratitude.

You don't have to keep carrying this alone. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, or a life that feels overwhelming: relief is possible, and you deserve support that truly fits who you are.

My background is genuinely unique: I'm one of the few therapists who holds both a clinical therapy license and a behavioral science certification. That combination means I bring two powerful perspectives into every session: the emotional depth of relationship-centered therapy and the practical, evidence-based tools of behavioral science. We won't just talk about how you feel. We'll understand why you do what you do, and build a real plan to change it. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, and my practice is proudly neurodivergent-affirming. You belong here.

Hello! I'm Karen Weaver. I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and have been practicing for over 15 years. Life can be challenging at times and we can all benefit from some support.

That could be anything from managing anxiety and stress better, to overcoming past challenges or getting along better with family or friends. Life can be challenging but we also can find joy and growth in the tough times.

I began practicing as a therapist and psychologist in 2012 after graduating from the Higher School of Psychology in Moscow, Russia. Since then, I have had the privilege of working with diverse clients across different clinical settings and cultural environments. After relocating to the United States, I chose to continue my professional path as a Marriage and Family Therapist, bringing with me approximately 12 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through emotional, relational, and life-transition challenges. Before entering the mental health field, I spent more than 30 years working as a legal professional in consulting, corporate law, and finance. While these professions may seem quite different, both have deepened my understanding of people, relationships, decision-making, conflict, resilience, and the many ways life circumstances can shape our experiences. Working across different professional, family, organizational, and cultural systems has given me a broad perspective on the challenges people face and the strengths they draw upon to adapt, grow, and find meaning in their lives. Altogether, my professional experience spans nearly four decades across different countries, cultures, populations, and work environments. This diverse background enriches my work as a therapist and allows me to bring a thoughtful, practical, and culturally sensitive perspective to the therapeutic process. I understand that every person's story is unique, and I strive to create a space where clients feel respected, understood, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and opportunities for growth. Perhaps most importantly, I genuinely value the work I do. Being a mental health professional is more than a career for me—it is a source of purpose, meaning, and connection. I feel grateful for the opportunity to accompany people on their journey toward greater self-understanding, healing, and fulfillment, and I consider it a privilege to be entrusted with that process.

Hello! My name is Natasha and I have had the pleasure of helping people with life transitions for 30 years. I am passionate about helping people through the trials and tribulations of life and helping them find the strengths that are often already within. I use a systems based approach, considering all factors that may be impacting a person in crisis - whether that be individual, family, peers, community, work, school, gender, substance use, culture, or social media influences - to help them find a more fulfilling way to live. My therapy style is eclectic borrowing from many different schools of thought as best fits my clients' needs. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques for a shorter, solution-focused treatment such as for anxiety or depression. I use a more psychodynamic approach for lengthier and more complex issues such as trauma. I am client-centered and very relational in my interactions. Some of my guiding principles include Unconditional Positive Regard, harm reduction, kindness and compassion above all. And of course, always a healthy dose of humor which can be found in even the darkest of times. I look forward to joining you on your journey to a healthier and happier self.

After earning my undergraduate degree at UC Berkeley, I spent a number of years traveling the world and then went on to earn two Master’s degrees, the second in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been working as a therapist for close to seven years, but have worked as a counselor with children, adolescents, and families for over 15 years. I built my own academic counseling business after my first graduate school, in which I fostered relationships with families and the community. This experience working closely with hundreds of local families gave me great insight into the power of supportive, goal oriented, client centered, positive relationships as catalysts for change in individuals and relational systems. I approach my clients with the belief that they are capable and valuable, and that with my support in identifying their strengths and resources, both internal and external, they can gain skills and achieve goals that can instill a sense of hope which enables them to move forward successfully. I have spent a great deal of time traveling, living, and working in diverse parts of the world, and I believe my own experiences coupled with my genuine positive regard for people has cultivated a broad perspective of understanding that contributes to my success as a therapist.

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I work with men and women who want to feel better about themselves, navigate life's ups and downs, and continue growing into the person they want to be. Whether you're struggling with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. My approach is relaxed, collaborative, and down-to-earth, blending CBT, DBT, supportive therapy, and humanistic principles to help you gain insight, build practical skills, and create meaningful change.

My name is Kim. I have been an LMFT clinician for 20+ years, worked at non-profits (3 years, including facilitating court ordered domestic violence & anger management classes), county behavioral health (9 & 1/2 years), taught psychology at Heald College (1 & 1/2 years) and have been in private practice (10 + years). I am a father of 5 (40's to one still in high school), lost 2 of them to Cystic Fibrosis (my 2nd and 3rd children-ages 28 and 35 years), a professional musician, artist, photographer, gardener, woodworker, etc. Lots of hobbies. Married twice and the 2nd is still intact almost 3 decades later. I have a wide range of treatments I've trained in and used, seen folks from 3 years to folks in their 70's, every race and lots of cultures, straight/bi/gay/trans, all socioeconomic levels, individuals, couples, families, & groups, and have covered a wide range of diagnosis and treatments from mild to severe. Today I don't really do the little children anymore but I have done a lot of that work in the past. Now its early adolescents and up. Lots of parenting. I don't hide who I am and I am real. I am in the helping profession and I take that very seriously. I am human myself, have done therapy myself, and I believe in the process. If I can help you, I will do my best to accomplish doing that. If I can't, I will tell you that as well.
