Costa Mesa, CA - Accepting clients in CA
I spent the a decade working in the addiction treatment industry. Working in that industry opened my eyes to the need for adequate trauma treatment so I became trained as an EMDR practitioner. In studying mind- body approaches to trauma, such as EMDR, I learned about the effectiveness of Eastern Practices such as Yoga, Tai Chi and Meditation in treating a range of psychological challenges.Personally experiencing the benefits of a mindfulness practice led me to obtain formal training in the study of yoga, Tai Chi and mediation so I could bring those benefits to my clients as well. Currently, I specialize in treating a wide range of psychological challenges using integrative approaches such as mindfulness based and trauma informed approaches.

My work is rooted in compassion, cultural humility, and a deep respect for the resilience of the human spirit.

I also bring extensive experience supporting hospice patients and their families, and individuals engaged in end-of-life planning.
In therapy, I use grief-informed and trauma-informed approaches to help clients process loss, reconnect with meaning, and find a path forward that honors their experiences. Whether you are navigating medical uncertainty, mourning a loss, or healing from past trauma, I provide a calm, affirming space where you can be fully seen and supported.

I incorporate this lens into my work when serving people of color and others from underrepresented communities, honoring the complexities and cultural context each client brings to the therapeutic space.

Hi, I’m Kamisha — a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Certified Sex Therapist based in California. I help high-functioning adults manage anxiety, depression, work-related stress, and major life transitions with clarity, compassion, and emotional depth.
I offer individual therapy for adults on the Grow Therapy platform with a focus on those who are navigating big internal shifts while maintaining full external lives. Many of my clients are juggling personal relationships and professional pressure, often without space to process how it’s all impacting them.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed but high-functioning, stuck but self-aware, or just ready to get unstuck, therapy with me can help you reconnect with your inner voice and make intentional choices rooted in your values.
While I work with a range of concerns, I specialize in:
Anxiety and burnout
Mild to moderate depression
Life transitions (career shifts, moves, relationship changes)
Relational stress for individuals in monogamous and consensual non-monogamous (CNM) relationships
Emotional wellness for BIPOC individuals
My therapeutic style is collaborative, affirming, sex-positive, and culturally grounded. I draw from narrative therapy and trauma-informed care to help clients explore the stories they’ve internalized — and support them in reshaping those narratives in ways that feel more aligned and liberating.
Please note: I currently do not offer therapy for couples, families, or individuals seeking support for high-acuity concerns such as eating disorders, active substance use, suicidal ideation, grief, personality disorders, OCD, chronic pain, neurodivergence, religious trauma, or psychiatric hospitalization.
If you’re looking for a safe space to reflect, recalibrate, and grow, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

Hi there, I’m Sonia.
Do you feel overwhelmed by the demands of your day-to-day life? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, family, work, school, and health? Has it been difficult managing your emotions or experiences after the pandemic?
As an LMFT, I attend to the various dimensions of the human experience- mind, body, spirit, and relationships. I specialize in working with young adults who are transitioning into new chapters in their lives. I also have extensive experience working with children, teens, adults, and older adults coping with, but not limited to: relational difficulties, trauma, family problems, anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, and navigating life transitions. I am also a bilingual therapist in Spanish and English and have extensive experience working with the Latino community.
My style is nonjudgmental and collaborative and honors your individual experience. I'm sensitive, but direct, and often use humor in my work. I value trust and transparency in the working relationship between us and I always welcome your questions and feedback.
