Parenting can be tough. You wonder if your child will ever grow out of their excessive worries, meltdowns, or tantrums, and you become exhausted and feel guilty for being frustrated with them. The nightly battles with homework and reports from school are wearing you down. The power struggle with your spirited toddler or your strong-willed adolescent may leave you overwhelmed and wondering what you can do differently. Communicating and feeling unified with your partner or caregiver may be difficult or your styles may be different, creating a state of uncertainty or chaos in the home. It is okay to feel overwhelmed. It is also okay to strive for more. You know the potential your child has, and living in a world where you can better help them navigate their development is possible. My goal is to empower you and your child by finding effective parenting strategies and coping skills that work for your family, allowing your child to thrive. I work with children, families, parents, and caregivers to ease the tension that emotions, outbursts, tantrums, and anxiety can bring children and their families. Parents are welcome for parent support as well as for individual therapy to improve their emotional response when triggered by parenting issues. Children are welcome between the ages of 2 and 7 years for Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). Let's begin working towards a more peaceful and intentional parenting experience. I welcome all families from all walks of life.

Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning on the outside, but internally feel emotionally exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to move past. I specialize in trauma informed therapy and EMDR, and integrate CBT and DBT to support healing, clarity, and emotional balance. My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply relational. I believe therapy is a space where you can be fully yourself, where you don’t have to hold everything alone, and where real, lasting change can begin.

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.

I work with IFS, EMDR, Brainspotting, Solution Focused Therapy, Parent Management training and many others. I am certified in EMDR and Brainspotting. I am Level 1 trained in IFS. I have also trained in Family Constellations, Sand Tray, and Comprehensive Resource Model. I have work experience in community mental health, medical social work, domestic violence/women’s issues, Hospice social work and sexual assault/crisis. I have a Bachelor's degree in nutrition, a Teaching Credential and a Master's Degree in Social Work. I am a 200 hour certified Yoga teacher. I am spiritual and Reiki trained. I live with my partner of 10 years and our four furry children. I live in Lake Tahoe. I have lived in Oregon and Hawaii. I am born and raised in Southern California.

I am an African American female Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Los Angeles. I have experience working with clients with issues such as: Depression, Anxiety, panic attacks, divorce, grief and loss, ODD, ADHD, Autism, sexual and physical abuse, crisis, childhood trauma, career challenges, life event changes, social skills, and self esteem. My specialty is working with adolescents and women specifically due to my professional background and personal experiences which I use to guide my practice. I am a expert in helping adolescents navigate the difficulties and challenges that come with transitioning into adulthood such as: identity formation, sexuality, family issues, peer pressure, and developing short and long term career goals. As a woman of color, I also have a special ability to connect, guide and support women struggling with various interpersonal and intrapersonal issues i.e self esteem, termination of a relationship, communication skills, career changes, sexism, intimate partner conflict or life’s obstacles due to systemic racism that may affect them in various aspects of their daily lives. My approach to therapy combines Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic/Person Centered counseling with a socially/ culturally competent and Trauma -Informed lens to help the client not only recognize their strengths, but also utilize existing support systems, develop new coping skills, effectively respond to crisis and empower the client/family/couple to recognize the solution to their problem already exist inside themselves. I am also a EMDR trained clinician. My personal mantra in counseling is “Change your thoughts and you change your world.” ~Norman Vincent Peale. I look forward to working with you

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.

Hi! I’m Karem, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 11 years of experience working with adults. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology, specializing in Marriage and Family Therapy, graduating with distinction. I specialize in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help individuals process stuck memories, reduce anxiety and depression, and shift unhelpful relationship patterns. I have experience assisting adults navigating a variety of challenges, including reproductive and post-partum struggles, traumatic events and abuse, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. My goal is to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change. You don’t have to do this alone. I’m here to walk alongside you.

My goal is to provide you with skills that you can take and maintain even after you complete your therapy journey with me. I focus on helping my clients understand and take control of their emotions which can help improve day to day life/ triggers. I believe through self awareness of ourself and understanding of ourself we can overcome any challenges.

I am a holistic counselor living in both CA and TX. I love supporting those coping with feelings of low self worth, depression, anxiety, panic, trauma, and grief. An experienced medical social worker, my niche is helping those recovering from chronic physical and emotional pain, illness and disease processes, infertility, maternal loss, peri/menopause, terminal illness, limb loss, and caregiver role stress.  I am trained in EMDR, CBT, Mindfulness, and energy psychologies like EFT (aka “tapping”). I study Internal Family Systems Therapy, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, and dream tending.  I am also certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy and EAET -- the most current research backed methods for recovering from chronic pain that I especially love to share. Because they work! My authentic approach is also intimately informed by the wisdom traditions that have healed my own life. The mother of a child with a life threatening seizure disorder, I am not unfamiliar with suffering. I often turn to Jungian Psychology, Dream Tending, and the Wise Woman Herbalism Tradition. I am a life-long meditation, yoga, and reiki practitioner, and always a student of Buddhist Psychology. I find healing in stillness, nature, humor, art, poetry, and the sacred. I love stories.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience providing trauma-informed psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Health and Human Services from California State University, Fresno in 1999, followed by a Master of Science in Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2005. I am a certified EMDR therapist specializing in the treatment of trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, depression, and relational distress. My clinical work is grounded in the understanding that unresolved traumatic experiences often shape emotional regulation, self-worth, relationship patterns, and the nervous system’s response to stress. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients safely process distressing memories, reduce emotional reactivity, and develop healthier beliefs about themselves and their relationships. My experience includes working extensively with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating complex emotional and relational challenges, including divorce, co-parenting difficulties, childhood trauma, attachment injuries, and family conflict. In couples therapy, I focus on how past trauma and unmet attachment needs can impact communication, emotional safety, trust, and connection within relationships. My professional background in community mental health provided extensive experience supporting diverse populations facing significant emotional, relational, and environmental stressors. This foundation continues to shape my commitment to providing culturally responsive, compassionate, and clinically sound care tailored to each client’s unique experiences and goals. I integrate EMDR with attachment-focused, strengths-based, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches to support healing and lasting change. I strive to create a safe, collaborative, and supportive therapeutic environment where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered throughout their healing journey. My goal is to help clients move beyond survival patterns, build resilience, strengthen relationships, and experience greater emotional balance, self-understanding, and overall well-being. CURRENTLY NOT TAKING COUPLES OR FAMILIES.

So happy you are here. My name is Elizabeth. As a licensed clinician with 16 years of experience supporting teens and young adults in processing trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and adjusting to life transitions; my hope is to create a safe space through compassion and empathy. I take a holistic approach to treatment, and acknowledging the unique ways culture, identity and lived experiences influence healing and growing. Together, we will work to explore areas of your life that are challenging to set you on a path towards making positive changes in your life. I believe that building a genuine, open, and honest therapeutic relationship with my client is the best way to connect. In an effort to do so I will bring my most authentic self, as a bi-racial female, having lived and worked professionally in CA and NY. I like to think that having lived bi-costal, undoubtedly shows up in the work we do together, I find the balance between being kind but honest.

Hi, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 9 years of experience. I believe treatment and therapy should be different for each individual depending on their preferences, background, beliefs, and personality. I frequently use compassion focused techniques to help clients understand that they are worthy of happiness and love. I have been trained in EMDR Therapy, which is used to treat a wide variety of symptoms that stem from trauma or upsetting memories. I strive to help clients find the right balance of healthy behaviors and realistic thoughts through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I also use many strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which incorporates mindfulness and acceptance.
