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.

I am a husband, father, and twin brother (I have and identical twin sister). I am also a reiki master and hypnotherapist. When I am not conducting psychotherapy (talk therapy), I enjoy conducting past life regressions to help people resolve past life trauma. I also use hypnotherapy to heal trauma. Hypnotherapy is not covered by most insurances and may result in cash pay. I enjoy helping people identify their wants and needs so they can then identify their goals and dreams. I believe we all have had experiences that have stifled our self-confidence which then causes us to doubt our ability. I enjoy helping people discover that part of themselves that is hidden as a result. I believe the world is a collective of people. We need to take care of ourselves, each other, and the animals we share this planet with.

My name is Briana Henry, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) offering telehealth services across California. I bring over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, flexible, and rooted in evidence-based care. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to create a personalized experience for each client. These modalities allow me to combine practical skill-building, emotional exploration, and strengths-based problem solving in ways that meet the unique needs of the individual. Sessions may vary—sometimes focused on structured strategies and tools, other times centered on reflection, processing, and validation—depending on what best supports growth in that moment. Much of my career has been dedicated to supporting children and adolescents. I find it especially meaningful to walk alongside young people as they navigate emotional, social, and academic challenges. I work with children adjusting to change, whether that involves school transitions, family shifts, or broader life stressors. I also support youth experiencing anxiety, depression, or trauma, as well as teens facing peer difficulties, self-esteem concerns, or identity development. Therapy offers a safe and structured space where they can process these struggles, learn coping skills, and build resilience. Because children do not exist in isolation, I actively involve parents and caregivers, providing strategies and guidance that strengthen the family system and empower parents to respond with confidence. In addition to my work with youth, I have extensive experience serving adults navigating their own burdens. I frequently work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, caregiver stress, postpartum transitions, or chronic illness. Many arrive in therapy feeling stuck, depleted, or uncertain about their next steps. My role is to provide both tools and a safe, collaborative space where they can regain clarity, resilience, and balance.

Hi, I’m Stephanie, a trauma therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through healing, growth, and self-discovery. I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, anxiety, and the challenges of everyday life — whether you're facing a major transition, feeling overwhelmed by stress, or simply needing space to reconnect with yourself. Above all, I aim to provide a warm, open, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe enough to be fully yourself. I believe that therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen and supported. Through our work together, we will focus on building effective coping skills, deepening self-awareness, and developing the tools needed to manage life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.

Are you in need of more healthy coping skills? As a professional therapist (LMFT) of over 14 years, I strive to empower client success while being a guiding presence in a supportive and safe space.

I feel each individual enters the therapeutic relationship in their own distinctive way. I strongly believe that every person is the author of their own story and unique in their narrative of what change looks like for them on a personal level. I am passionate about helping people make change both big and small that will enhance their sense of seIf and ability to create more meaning and authenticity in their lives and relationships.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience in mental health. I specialize in helping individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship/ family conflicts, parenting issues/postpartum, life transitions, immigration, eating concerns/body image, and low self-esteem. Therapy is a safe space to explore, process, and understand your emotions, and I do so with a feminist, social justice, and humanistic lens. I utilize evidence-based practices, such as mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy. We may just as much explore your childhood and family of origin as we may identify concrete solutions to real-time problems. I love bringing in humor as appropriate. Therapy is challenging, and it takes a lot of courage to recognize "I need help." I hope to enter every session with an open mind and a nonjudgmental stance as we walk together through some of the most difficult moments in your life.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Post Partum?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Post Partum, is filtering therapists in California that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
