Gardena, CA - Accepting clients in CA
Hello,
I’m Wanda Earl, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist located in California with over 15 years of experience providing mental health services to adolescents, adults, and families primarily with diverse backgrounds.
As passionate as I am about helping people, I’m even more compelled to help people help themselves. I believe in providing a safe space that encourages unfiltered communication and self-reflection, both of which I believe are vital for one to heal and foster growth.
I acknowledge that life is precious but at times hard and a professional’s assistance with helping navigate through those challenges may be needed.
Just like a scale, life has its ups and downs, and only the sturdiness of the scale (the scale being the individual) can determine its ability to carry the weight that is placed on it.
If you feel that I can potentially be of service, please check my availability.

The pressures of the modern world seem never ending, particularly when you deal with an untreated or difficult to treat mental health or substance use issue. I specialize in certain mental health diagnoses including personality disorders, postpartum issues, depression/anxiety, self harm/suicidal ideation.

You have the power to stop fighting what is out of your control, and harness your power to control what is just within your grasp.

I belong to many communities and have many identities. Most strongly I identify as Queer, a Person of Color and Intersex. I strive to use these experiences and identities to help me connect to clients. I volunteer and work with intersex, gender-expansive, and trans youth and adults. I have also helped with the wellness and care programs for activists working for immigrants rights and other anti-oppression causes. I see my work as helping to heal and bring joy to the many communities to which I belong. I see the care I offer as an act of resilience and defiance.
I take a very straightforward, yet warm and non-judgmental approach to my work. I offer client-centered therapy with an emphasis on helping individuals reach wholeness and authenticity. I do not believe I can be an authority on anyone else’s experience, but I might be able to offer a perspective that helps someone see their life in another way. We can explore together not just the thoughts you are having, but also the way you relate to others and the way you relate to your body and what it expresses.
With a background in Sex Education, Rape/Sexual Assault and Intimate Partner Violence Prevention I have spent over 20 years helping people process both the joys and sorrows of relationships. This experience has given me a unique and varied perspective on how one's sense of self is held and how boundaries are established. Together we can work to find what your truest sense of self is and how to hold on to that in a world that sometimes makes it difficult to do so.

Seattle, CA - Accepting clients in CA
I’m Steven Frank. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT), licensed in California and living in Seattle, Washington. The way the law works is that if I have a California license, I can live outside of California, but can only work with California residents. For that reason, all my work is perforyemed online through telehealth. I see primarily adults and seniors in my practice and while I work mostly withindividuals, I will also see couples when needed.
I’ve been licensed since 1983 but actually began to “grow” a private practice beginning in 1990. While most of my experience has been with clients dealing with depression and anxiety, over the last 4-5 years I’ve been more focused on the treatment for symptoms of trauma and abuse. I’ve been trained in EMDR (a specific treatment for trauma), and will use that method as needed, when appropriate, and with your understanding of the process, and consent.
By the way, my first job experience (before beginning my schooling for the MFT license), was in the California State Hospital system as a psychiatric technician. I was a member of a hospital inpatient treatment team that treated people with severe mental disorders. This was excellent training for working with clients who are seeking help, but on an outpatient basis.

Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of trauma, facing daily overwhelm, or questioning who you are and how you relate to the world around you, therapy can offer space to slow down, reflect, and begin to heal.
Together, we’ll create a grounded and supportive space to explore what’s been held in silence, uncover patterns that no longer serve you, and move toward a life that feels more aligned, connected, and whole.

Upland, CA - Accepting clients in CA
Human beings contain multitudes – we’re complex spiritual and intellectual beings. To create lasting positive change, it’s so important to witness and heal all parts of ourselves!
This belief guides my work as a licensed marriage and family therapist. My holistic approach blends evidence-based techniques and time-tested spiritual wisdom to uniquely treat the whole, true self.
My clients have big hearts and big dreams, but when they come to me, they’re often drowning in stress, anxiety, or burnout. They feel like they’re on a hamster wheel they can’t sustain, but they don’t want to give up on their vision, either!
I take a holistic therapeutic approach to help them balance the complexity within and take steps toward a life of deep fulfillment – a life where their biggest dreams and simplest joys can peacefully coexist.
