I believe that therapy can heal, but I also know that telling a stranger about your deepest pain can be a strange feeling. Perhaps you've been feeling sad, depressed or worried, and hopeless that anything in your life can change. Or maybe you aren't sure what you would even want help with. You know you feel bad, but if someone were to ask you "How can I help?", you aren't sure what you would say. These problems can feel permanent and unsolvable. After all, something feels broken and unfixable, so how could you not feel that it takes all the energy you have just to get up in the morning and go about your day? Depression or anxiety can also feel isolating, as if nobody else could possibly understand. You may have even received advice from people who you feel mean well but can't understand what you're going through. Depression and anxiety are not permanent or unfixable, and therapy can help. Imagine feeling peace of mind, and excited about life and its possibilities. It starts by learning about you and going at your pace. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with over 16 years experience working with adults and teens, I've seen therapy work, and I feel lucky that I get to be part of that journey for others.

Hello, I'm Kattera. Are you feeling overwhelmed or being stretched thin? Are you looking for a positive outlet and someone safe to talk to? Are you having a hard time with negative or intrusive thoughts? Are you struggling with self-esteem or having confidence? Having challenges in your relationships? I am here to help and support you along your journey. I can help to identify those negative things in your life and explore ways to ease anxiety, depression, worry, and thoughts of self-doubt. Together, we can explore ways to create balance and address your health as a whole so that you can find the peace and confidence you are looking for. Therapy can feel kind of scary in the beginning, but taking that first step can be a life changer. You deserve a safe and healthy place to learn, grow, and become the person that you want to be. Healing takes time and I know that healing can happen. I truly believe in the power of therapy and the safety of the therapeutic relationship to help guide you in your healing journey. You are not alone in this process. Together, we will find ways for you to navigate and overcome the barriers that arise and create new meaning in your life. I am so excited to work with you and to support you in attaining the life that you want and are looking forward to.

Hello, My name is Mija Lee, LPCC, NCC. I am passionate about helping my clients regain their inner strength and navigate life’s challenges. I offer both virtual and in-person sessions for clients in California. Since 2017, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, and adults in outpatient mental health clinics and school districts. As an immigrant, a traveler, a therapist, and a firm believer in positive thinking, I bring a wealth of diverse life experiences and insights to my practice. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of the overwhelming stressors, relationships, jobs, and uncertainties that we all face. I believe that by confronting and overcoming these challenges, we can emerge stronger and thrive. I am truly grateful for the experiences and people who have shared their lives with me, showing me the transformative power of good therapy. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey.

As a Navy veteran, mom of four, and therapist with over 14 years of experience, I understand the weight of responsibility, the exhaustion of caregiving, and the quiet strength it takes to keep going when life feels overwhelming. I’ve lived through the chaos, the transitions, and the moments of doubt, and I bring that lived empathy into every session. My work is grounded in attachment theory and trauma-informed care, helping you make sense of your experiences, reconnect with yourself, and heal in a space that feels safe, attuned, and deeply supportive. Whether you're navigating burnout, relational wounds, or the long arc of trauma recovery, I’m here to walk alongside you with clarity, compassion, and unwavering respect for your journey.

Welcome! I'm Mia Grajeda-Willard, LCSW. I am the proud spouse of a Marine Corp. veteran and the granddaughter of a World War II veteran. These amazing humans are proud of their military service and the legacy it provides their families for generations to come. While that is true, what is also true is that transitioning from military life back to civilian life was a struggle for them, as I know it is for many veterans and their families. I have committed my career to serving those who served this country by walking alongside veterans, and their family members to affirm their identity, transition back to civilian life, heal from painful traumas, and reconcile ruptures in relationships that may have resulted in challenges from military life or pre-military childhood upbringings.

My therapy approach includes traditional and holistic healing techniques that involve mind, body, heart and spirit as well as things unseen. My years of experience in community mental health include individual, child, couples, co-parenting and family therapy. I am able to relate well to many different cultural, ethnic, socio-economic groups. With an M.A. in transpersonal psychology and an M.B.A. from University of Chicago plus 25 years of corporate experience, I use a broad range of skills to help my clients explore their needs and goals. As a certified yoga and meditation teacher, many of my clients have learned mindfulness techniques that enhance their recovery. All of us need confidential support for different things at times. My job is to compassionately support you in what you need, with your values, to have the life that you want.

My focus is on cognitive behavioral therapy and complicated grief therapy. Sometimes we have to face our losses to be able to move forward, sometimes we have to confront our negative thoughts to clear our mind and focus on what is in front of us now. We try to cope with the world’s challenges based on the values and strengths we built during childhood, but there are many ways to rekindle our creativity and joy as adults to re imagine a new path. I am a compassionate listener who can hold a non- judgemental space for patients to share their beliefs, desires and concerns.
