Therapists in California

Hi there! Hola! I'm Beatriz and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Southern California working with clients statewide via Telehealth. I’m a Latina bilingual Spanish speaking therapist with many years of mental health experience. My passion is to connect with people in a way that makes them feel seen and heard. I'd describe my therapeutic interaction as casual and informal. I take a holistic approach to therapy. I believe that every client needs something different and I work to provide that along the way. I have specialized training related to trauma (Trauma Focused CBT), early childhood mental health (Child Parent Psychotherapy), and a certification in maternal/perinatal mental health (PMH-C).

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with over 14 years of experience. I take an eclectic, client-centered approach—drawing from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic, and depth psychology to meet each client’s unique needs. I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and PTSD, creating a safe and supportive space for healing and growth. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I blend techniques from Person-Centered Therapy, CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic Theory, Mindfulness, and Depth Psychology. This flexible style allows us to work on both immediate relief and lasting transformation—always with your unique needs at the center. I believe therapy should feel safe, supportive, and empowering. My goal is to create a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and encouraged to grow at your own pace. Let’s discover what healing can look like for you.

Hello! I’m Tiffany Winston a LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) in the state of California. I graduated with a Master's in Social Work from USC in 2008 and have a Bachelor's from Cal State Long Beach in Psychology. I have worked in school-based mental health as well as in crisis management for the hospital. I LOVE anxious people!!! Anxiety, Depression and Anger Management are my favorite issues to work with because they are typically all linked. I have taught anxiety, depression, anger management, couples communication and work stress groups in the past using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Solution Focused therapy which is my preferred theoretical perspective. I am passionate about teaching about self-care, healthy communication, learning to set boundaries and holistic healing methods that help my clients heal from the things that trigger their symptoms. My goal is to empower my clients to find solutions that work for them and make choices/decisions to create the change in the mind, body or spirit that they want to see. I love to laugh, smile and have fun with my clients to create a safe space to grow and heal. It is my pleasure to work with clients who are passionate about working together to heal from symptoms and grow with a little bit of laughter. :-) I look forward to hearing and working with you in the future.

Hi I am Kao, I firmly believe that as humans we have an innate desire for growth and balance. Unfortunately, often we physically respond to ingrained negative cues and messages that get stuck in our body. Many times these old cues manifest themselves in our body as anxiety, depression, and other trauma responses. It can feel like we are living life just trying to cope with the loudness of these negative messages. What if instead of just gaining tools to “cope” with these trauma responses, we could eliminate them all together? How might your life look? My hope is that in our work together we will be able to address wounds and move towards healing so that you don’t have to “cope” anymore. Instead you can thrive and have a sense of self-awareness that brings constant peace and clarity.

With nearly 20 years of experience working with individuals, children, teens, and families, I have been actively focusing on teletherapy for the past 5 years, ensuring that clients receive high-quality care and support regardless of their location. My career began in community-based therapy, where my out-of-the-box style was nurtured and reinforced. In these settings, families, teens, and children often felt labeled as hopeless, both internally and externally by agencies such as schools, social services, and probation. My approach has always been to meet clients where they are, both literally and figuratively, helping them discover better coping mechanisms and become more effective in their lives. I provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions, gaining insight and tools to manage them effectively. My approach to therapy is flexible, out of the box, and adaptable to each individual's unique needs. I prioritize creating a comfortable environment where clients feel at ease expressing themselves, helping them achieve meaningful and lasting change in their lives.

Hi. I am the daughter of immigrants which motivated me to study Multicultural community based psychology. I have worked in many different settings from community mental health to private practice. Currently I am the director of a consultation unit for youth and young adults in the foster care system. I really enjoy working with people on how to maximize their potential to create happier lives; sometimes this is achieved through more traditional therapy while other times this may require life coaching. I do not believe that therapy needs to be a continuous life long process, but rather a process individuals move in and out of at different stages of their lives.

I am a Christian and Afro-Caribbean mom and forever learner. Psychology and healing deeply excite me. I dipped my toe into psychiatry for the first time as a high school student and am still furthering my education in clinical psychology today. I know there is a greater capacity for healing available to individuals who have always looked inward, fist-fought generational patterns, and still feel stuck in a world that says they need 15 more tasks completed by yesterday. I work to be a safe resting place for people who have moved from therapist to therapist, searching for someone who will truly see them for who they are rather than who the world has tried to mold them into. I desire to fill the Keturah-sized space in that wellness gap. I enjoy working side-by-side with clients to explore areas of possibility, rest, healing, and growth, and then provide the tools to make these things possible.

When we’ve lost a part of ourselves, a life we had created or envisioned, our world can feel as if it’s falling apart, even ending. And in a way, it is. But maybe this is also part of our journey, the road that takes us to the heart of it. When provided with a safe environment where respect, compassion and unconditional positive regard are offered, we have a chance to set out on our path. The invitation, as always, is to start. Start anywhere, no matter how unsure and unsteady. But start somewhere. In time we grow more aware and self-assured as we make our way toward our most authentic self, our most authentic life.

Mi nombre es Luz Hernandez Jasso, hablo espanol, ingles y Spanglish, ya que soy bicultural. I'm Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Napa, California.

I specialize in treating severe trauma, anxiety, and depression, using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapy, and trauma-focused interventions. I strive to create a safe, culturally sensitive space for healing and personal growth.

I approach our first session with wanting to know exactly where you are and what you need today. This is because people usually book a therapy session with an issue in mind, or with a problem to solve. I assure you that if you are motivated to change your mindset and ready to work on yourself, that you will feel more peaceful and calm with just one session, and you will leave knowing that you will be able to solve what is going on. We tend to be harsh and critical of ourselves thinking that will promote change when that only causes us to procrastinate and feel depression and anxiety. To address this I offer you my book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on self-forgiveness- find it on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble, "The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness." I offer you my podcast- "All Things Therapy," which can be found on iTunes and Spotify. It is a mental health and wellness-focused podcast with over 410 episodes for you to dig into.

Let's talk. I too have had a therapist when life shows up. We all experience the human condition: depression, anxiety, isolation, unresolved grief and trauma, shame, people pleasing, toxic relationships and communication, anger, shame, low self-esteem, addiction, and compulsions. Do you listen to your inner critic’s lies too often? Are you a human in pain like I have been? Yes? Then you’ve found the right place. These topics and others are my specialty. I create a safe, fun, compassionate, private, and nonjudging space, using evidence-based approaches customized for each client; like Kim: "You’ve helped me see the world and myself so much better" "Thank you Clint! I have finally taken control of my emotions and like myself today" -Terry. I'm glad you've found the courage to ask for help. I teach clients to face the challenges that have plagued them for years. I'll share how to be more self-compassionate and change your core beliefs. Problems usually start with the relationship we have with ourselves; the core beliefs about ourselves, others, and our world can change. Let me show you how. "I really appreciate your help and feel so much better" -Ed. I help people overcome the issues listed above. Also, I help process the taboo: Alt Sex/Kink, suicidality, anger management, and the secrets you plan to die with. My clients constantly report that working together restores hope and that change is possible. Contact me to see how I can help you. "Now I have better ways of seeing and being in this world" Jay "Thank you for helping put our family back together" -Caroline.
