Therapists in California

Hey there! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) serving clients in California and Massachusetts. I earned my master’s degree from the University of New England, with a focus on Individuals, Families, and Groups, and I bring 13 years of experience working alongside individuals as they navigate life’s challenges, transitions, and opportunities for growth. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of supporting people through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and experiences that have left them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that each person has the capacity to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. I particularly enjoy helping people find perspective through the voice of their pain. I believe that pain and discomfort, while often difficult, can also become powerful teachers when we are willing to slow down, listen, and understand what our experiences are trying to tell us. Therapy provides a space to explore those experiences without judgment while developing healthier ways to cope, communicate, and move forward. In our work together, we will identify your concerns, explore the patterns and beliefs that may be affecting your well-being, and develop practical strategies that are tailored to your individual needs and goals. My goal is to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel seen, heard, respected, and empowered to become more intentional about the life you want to create. I look forward to walking alongside you as you tend to your heart, discover your strengths, and move toward meaningful change.

Hi, I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California for 20 years and I hold a doctorate degree in the Philosophy of Counseling. I am in my second marriage for 30 years now, after my 24-year first marriage failed. We have seven children between the two of us, 31 grandchildren, and 7 great-grandchildren. I have had good success counseling couples who have given up on their relationship, especially those who have experienced infidelity. I don't counsel children until they are 18. I enjoy helping people understand how they became the way they are and therefore find ways to leave dysfunction behind.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California with 30 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. I understand how difficult it can be to manage everyday responsibilities while struggling with your emotional well-being. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where you can better understand your experiences, develop healthier coping strategies, and make meaningful changes in your life. I also specialize in working with neurodivergent adults, including individuals with autism, ADHD, or both, as well as those exploring whether they may be neurodivergent. I have been a Certified Autism Specialist (CAS) since 2017 and PEERS® certified since 2021. I earned my master's degree from California State University, Long Beach, and my bachelor's degree from Grambling State University.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to helping you learn how to cultivate the life you deserve and want. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, thinking patterns, and self-limiting beliefs that create daily barriers to life fulfillment. I believe in taking a collaborative approach towards helping clients reach their goals. I hold space for you to narrate your journey without fear or judgment. I welcome your invitation to walk beside you in letting go of the things and ideas that no longer serve you. You deserve the opportunity to cultivate a better you.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California who supports adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles, and my Master’s degree in Social Work with a focus on Adult Mental Health and Wellness from the University of Southern California. I have experience working with clients ages 5 to 65 from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, with specialties in domestic violence, grief, and trauma. I provide a warm, empowering, and nonjudgmental space where clients can feel safe to explore their experiences. Using a blend of CBT, trauma-informed care, and solution-focused therapy, I help clients build practical coping skills, heal from past experiences, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

In recognizing the challenges and complexities of today's changing world and at the many roles we are called upon to fulfill, I know the importance of being able to give my clients a safe place to talk. I help my clients explore and uncover issues that have contributed to feelings of depression and anxiety and work to bring joy back into their lives. Although many individuals don't identify trauma in their history, in over 25 years of practice I have found being attuned to my clients past experiences helpful in improving the present. In addition to treating anxiety and depression, I am trained in trauma treatments both CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) and TFCBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Therapy). I also utilize a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach that allows for identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and patterns of behavior that often keep us stuck. The path to recognizing and challenging our thoughts and beliefs can help change our perspective and allow for experiencing ourselves and relationships in a more satisfying way.

I am a licensed therapist with specialized training in evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate emotional challenges, build coping skills, and improve their quality of life. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I strive to create a supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes.

Hi, I’m Sandra Martinez Silva, LCSW, a bilingual English and Spanish therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions for adults and women navigating stress, emotional overwhelm, and burnout. I provide a warm, supportive, and culturally responsive space where clients can better understand their emotions, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their values and inner strengths. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to help clients improve emotional regulation, reduce anxiety, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with three years of experience helping people navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, and the challenges that come with life. My approach is humanistic and grounded in CBT, while also drawing from my interest in neuroscience, human behavior, and a person-in-environment perspective. I believe who we are and how we respond to life are shaped not only by our thoughts and emotions, but also by our relationships, experiences, and the environments around us. Together, we can explore what may be keeping you stuck, better understand yourself, and work toward meaningful change in a way that feels authentic to you.

I am Daniel Marshall, MSW, LCSW, an independent therapist based in San Diego providing dedicated 60-minute individual therapy sessions. My practice centers on culturally responsive, evidence-based care tailored to adults navigating anxiety, major life transitions, relationship dynamics, and identity development. I cultivate a grounded, collaborative, and entirely judgment-free space where you can dismantle unhelpful patterns, reconnect with your authentic agency, and build sustainable, practical strategies for long-term emotional resilience and personal clarity.

I am a born and bred L.A native. Born into a family where there was so much intergenerational patterns that were passed down. As I placed my faith in God and I allowed him to heal me and show me my true identity in him I was able to experience life changing breakthrough. My hope is to help anyone who is seeking to incorporate faith, regardless of where you are in your walk with God (committed or questioning). God met me at my lowest, showed me his love and compassion that truly changed me for the better. I hope to show others how God is the ultimate healer of the mind, body, soul and spirit. Healing is an ongoing process and it takes daily renewing of the mind.

Hi, I’m Marissa! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy can be meaningful without feeling stiff or overly clinical. I work with adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, ADHD, grief, trauma, relationships, life transitions, and the general messiness of being human. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, with plenty of room for humor, honesty, and those “wait…that actually makes so much sense” moments.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with adults (no couples) and children who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from themselves. You may be doing everything you can to keep going—showing up for work or school, caring for others, and managing daily life—while quietly carrying anxiety, sadness, anger, or deep exhaustion. Sometimes your reactions feel bigger than expected. Sometimes life just doesn’t feel like it used to. I specialize in trauma-informed care and understand that these experiences are not signs of weakness. They are often signs that your mind and body have been working hard to cope. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, understood, and supported at your own pace. In our work together, I offer a calm and steady presence. Therapy with me is not about pushing you to “just move on” or forcing change before you’re ready. It’s about slowing down, listening to what your mind and body are holding, and creating space for relief and clarity. My role is to walk alongside you as you regain a sense of stability and reconnect with the part of you that holds resilience, strength, and the capacity for joy—even if that feels far away right now.

My name is Airy Ramirez, pronounced I-ry. As a licensed therapist, I create a warm and engaging environment where healing and growth naturally unfold. Drawing from my clinical training with a specialized focus on children, families, and veterans, I bring depth and versatility to my practice. I believe in meeting clients exactly where they are, while gently guiding them toward their goals with compassion and expertise. Understanding the demands of modern life, I offer flexible scheduling including evening appointments, alongside secure online and phone sessions.

Most of my experience as a psychotherapist has been in treating individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, loss, trauma, and other significant life changes (workplace stress, chronic illness, aging). I have worked in health and human services in different parts of California for the past 30 years. I have been a telehealth psychotherapist since 2021. Just before the pandemic I was working with people who needed support to find housing and provide for their basic needs, as well as people needing substance use treatment. As a social worker I have also worked with people experiencing trauma, chronic health conditions/disabilities, age-related circumstances and grief/loss. (Also, I have a good understanding of social services and mental health resources in the San Francisco Bay Area, especially Contra Costa County. In my free time I enjoy baking, hiking, playing with my Boston Terrier, Bruno, and between the months of March and October, I watch a lot of baseball (Go Giants!).

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families who have been impacted by trauma, major life changes, relationship challenges, mental health concerns, and substance use. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative—I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and truly understood. I use a combination of evidence-based approaches tailored to each person’s needs, including cognitive and behavioral tools, motivational work, trauma-informed practices, and mind–body techniques. My goal is always to meet you where you are, help you feel grounded, and empower you with practical skills that create real change in your life. I’m passionate about helping people build resilience, strengthen self-worth, and move toward the version of themselves they want to be. If you’re looking for a safe and supportive space to work through what you’re facing, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

We'll use a whole person and CBT approaches, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. Whether you're dealing with feeling down, overwhelmed, or stressed out, I'm here to help.

In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome mental health concerns that are holding you back. Let's work together! Please note; that I do not offer couple' therapy but only individual therapy.

I’m Johanna. I work with creative people, and with those who are working to heal, transition, and evolve from things that have hurt them. My approach blends traditional talk therapy with deeper work. With the use of Brainspotting and Jungian interventions, because real change rarely happens at the surface, we create deep meaningful change. When we're willing to go underneath, to the place where the old story lives, we can heal it and create room to become something new.

You more than likely appreciate a flexible and open approach to therapy along with a therapist who values a collaborative approach with their clients. You are likely looking for a therapist who can help alleviate your symptoms of personal distress and suffering. "I've got you." I am a California-based licensed psychotherapist.

I approach the practice of therapy as a mutual relationship, one that is based on integrity and trust. I conduct each session with a calm, empathetic and attuned presence.

If your life isn't all that you dreamed and imagined it would be; if you're struggling to keep up with your relationships, work, and health; if you find it hard to be kind to yourself; if you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in — you don't have to face it alone. Contact me, and let's work together. "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain." My name is Rena. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. As a multicultural, client-centered therapist, I have worked with adults, seniors, children, families, and couples from many walks of life. I am also bilingual in English and Mandarin, and I bring a culturally sensitive perspective to my work, with a special appreciation for the experiences of Asian American and immigrant communities. My goal is to help you live the life you want and deserve — by helping you remove the blocks to your personal growth, improve your relationships with yourself and others, and find real relief from your struggles. I believe therapy isn't about becoming someone else. It's about understanding yourself more deeply — and finding your own way forward.

Nobody is perfectly in tune with their own emotions. We all have some anxiety around the ones we don't want. Sometimes anxiety can trap or isolate us. Sometimes it's even worse than that, and our mood plunges. Shockingly, there are hundreds of therapy approaches out there, and it's too often a tricky and confusing business to sort things out, and get back to our own natural place of confidence and authenticity. But we can get you on your way to that place together quickly with the help of modern affective neuroscience.

PLEASE Read Entirely: Families often come to seek more information on how to establish and produce healthier habits that benefit their well-being and self-esteem. They learn that the healthier they are, it increases their happiness and in turn benefits relationships. Kendall helps families and individuals explore and identify who they are, their communication style and how to protect these realizations with healthy boundaries. After learning more about themselves, families often feel much more equipped to decrease or rid themselves of symptoms that prompt them to seek therapy initially. It's always an honor, privilege and a wonderful opportunity to process with families in their sacred spaces.

Hi! I am Anne Gimbel, licensed marriage and family therapist, and I begin by meeting you at your place of growth or need for healing. My goal with individuals, couples, or families is to explore and identify the thoughts that have a direct impact on your emotions and behaviors.

Hi, my name is Evan. For the past 25 years, I have been helping people improve their lives. I help adults struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma from childhood or events they experienced, substance use, sexual abuse, low self-worth, people-pleasing, LGBTQ+ issues, and many other issues. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I am also a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) to work with people living in California.

Greetings, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California, North Carolina and Florida. I received my Master's in Social Welfare from the University of California, Los Angeles. Most of my career has been focused in health care settings where I have worked as an outpatient behavioral health therapist, inpatient therapist and medical social worker. I bring a whole person approach into my work with clients and strive to provide a safe and supportive environment which facilitates personal growth and healing.

I am a psychotherapist with over 15 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings. I received my psychotherapy training at the San Francisco State University and graduated in 2012. After working at a private counseling center for 6 years, I opened my private practice in 2018 as a licensed marriage and family therapist. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adults and Asian adults. My areas of interests include gay/lesbian and gender issues, sexuality, psychotherapy education, and psychotherapeutic technique.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adults from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. I am also a U.S. Army Combat Veteran, and my professional experience includes serving in the Veterans Health Administration, where I supported Veterans navigating mental health concerns, life transitions, relationships, housing instability, and other complex challenges. My experiences as both a clinician and Veteran have strengthened my appreciation for resilience, identity, service, and the many ways our experiences shape how we understand ourselves and relate to others. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work with an academic focus on Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality. This training informs my commitment to culturally responsive care and helps me recognize how identity, family, relationships, culture, socioeconomic circumstances, and broader systems can influence mental health and well-being. I approach these conversations with cultural humility, curiosity, and respect for each client’s individual experience. My therapeutic style is person-centered, collaborative, and solution-focused. I believe clients are experts on their own lives, and therapy should provide a supportive space to understand patterns better, identify barriers, build on existing strengths, and develop practical strategies for meaningful change. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I work collaboratively with each client to establish realistic short- and long-term goals that reflect their individual needs, values, and priorities. My goal is to help clients gain greater insight while also developing tools they can apply outside of therapy. Together, we work toward creating meaningful, sustainable change that supports greater resilience, healthier relationships, improved emotional well-being, and a life that feels more aligned with who they are and where they want to go.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas with five years of independent clinical experience and over ten years of experience in human services, case management, vocational rehabilitation services, and working at inpatient and outpatient clinical therapy offices. I have a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision from Ohio University, a masters degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health counseling from UNC-Chapel Hill, and a bachelors of science degree in psychology from North Carolina State University. I chose to get a PhD in counseling because of my desire to help others, and my continuous drive to learn and grow. Therapy was essential to me as a teenager, then as a young adult, and now as a middle-aged adult. I have always found it to be a powerful tool in allowing me to process my thoughts and feelings, both about my past and my future. As a result, I chose to become a therapist, to provide the same support and guidance to the people I work with!
