My ultimate aim is to equip clients with practical, yet powerful skills and tools that empower them to live life with confidence, peace and trust. I offer a holistic, personalized approach that embraces body, mind, and spirit. I am certified in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy, working with ketamine (KAP).

Hello! Props to you for taking the first steps in handling your mental health. My name is Bethany and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been practicing for 5 years. My priority in treatment, regardless of diagnosis, is to support you in reinforcing your strength and building your confidence because things get done when you believe in yourself. I've helped teens, adults, and older adults break free from negative thinking patterns utilizing models such as CBT and ERP. It's amazing what changes can be made when you actively choose to face your thoughts and demand your power back. I understand that life has a way of pushing us to our limits in a way that seems unfair. I also understand that an adjustment in perspective or an aggressive push of encouragement is often what we need in order to overcome the things life throws our way. My job in treatment is to provide you with the safest space to process your thoughts while also ensuring enough challenges are introduced to show you what you're capable of. Healing is going to come from you - I am simply here to help facilitate that process.

That’s why I show up to this work with realness, warmth, and zero judgment. Whether you’re dealing with burnout, identity issues, or just trying to hold it all together—I gotchu.

Welcome to my (safe) space!!! I'm a bit of a Fred Roger's enthusiast, so let me start by saying thank you for being you!! My most important value is to treat people with love and respect, no matter their background, no matter their circumstances!! I believe we all deserve it!!! My name is Jose-Santos Xavier Orozco, feel free to call me whatever makes you comfortable!!! Life to me is about being flexible, or like Bruce Lee said, like water, being able to bend and reshape whenever needed, while maintaining strength and purpose!!! I am a 36 year old male therapist who was born in SF and raised in Los Angeles! My early years were spent in the foster care system until I was placed into a permanent family at the age of 6. I am of mixed Ethnic background and have experienced culture/ identity difficulties since as long as I can remember. Life has naturally brought me to get a degree in Social work and work in this field. I would definitely consider myself a wounded warrior, although I feel like my injuries have been pretty well tended to by now. Learning to accept and love yourself has been my greatest achievement (on-going achievement) and I promise that when you get there too, it can be yours as well!!! I prefer working with ADULT population; I have very limited experience working with kids. Thank you

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 adult life, managing various symptoms of ADHD or 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? Are the negative thoughts in your mind holding you back? 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 10am-5pm. I am not available on weekends.

In my work with clients, I’ve seen that even good changes can make usually well-adjusted people struggle with day-to-day stress that didn’t seem to be a challenge in the past. I’ve worked with people who struggle with communicating emotions, prioritizing themselves, or feeling like their best is not good enough. If you feel like you can identify with those experiences and are not sure how to change things, I’d love to work with you.
