Hello and welcome! I have been a licensed psychologist in California since 2016. My goal is to help individuals enhance their sense of well being and experience a greater sense of meaning in their lives. This can be done by acquiring coping skills to identify, and refute unhelpful habits of thinking, increase self-compassion and self-care. My approach to counseling is strengths based and empowerment focused. I use a collaborative and egalitarian style with people who I works with in counseling. When meeting with me for the first time, clients can expect an opportunity to explore presenting concerns and potential goals for treatment. I received my Bachelors degree Psychology from the George Washington University, my first Masters degree in Psychology from Pepperdine University and my second Masters degree and Doctorate in Clinical-Community Psychology from the University of La Verne. When I’m not working with clients, you can find me in the garden!

Hello, my name is Claudia, and I hold an LCSW to practice therapy in California. I am a neurodivergent, queer practitioner, daughter of immigrants, and mama bear. I am deeply engaged in the ongoing reclamation of my lineage and helping other folks find the culture and healing from their own connection process. I come from generations of artists, dancers, and poets, and my approach reflects the creative, embodied wisdom of those ancestors who came before me, those who survived, thrived, and cared for one another. My work is designed to help individuals and groups implement nonviolent communication, healing justice practices, and integration strategies that foster authenticity and alignment in daily life—through creativity, mindfulness, and movement/somatics. Rooted in a community organizing foundation, my consulting work is highly strategic and intentionally targeted. I collaborate with organizations and individuals ready to embrace new approaches to solution-seeking—grounded in transformative justice, liberation, and nervous system regulation—while applying ancestral, intergenerational wisdom to sustain meaningful progress. I offer short-term, deeply immersive work that ensures rapid but lasting transformation, with results typically realized within 3 to 6 months. My approach is not just about conceptual change but about daily embodiment, where new habits of expansion and love are integrated into every dimension of life. Additionally, I provide multi-modality, creative expansion workshops and art installations—transformational experiences designed to activate lasting shifts in one encounter. These immersive practices harness the wisdom of our five senses, rewiring internal narratives and dismantling restrictions that keep us stuck. If this resonates, let’s connect and explore how we can co-create something powerful together.

Hello, I appreciate your courage in reaching out. I'm a native Californian, and I have a master's degree in marriage and family therapy from Stetson University in Deland, FL (summa cum laude 2009), and a doctorate in applied clinical psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Los Angeles campus (summa cum laude 2015). I'm certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which has decades of scientific research proving its effectiveness and efficiency in healing trauma. I'm also a MAPs/Fluence-trained psychedelic integration/harm reduction therapist. I've been working with clients since 2008 on various issues that have their foundation in trauma, such as depression, anxiety, recurring relationship conflicts, complicated grief, general malaise, life dissatisfaction, and more. We find that once the underlying trauma is addressed and healed, the resulting issues tend to resolve as well and then clients can live happier and more productive, relaxed lives.

Are you tired of the non-stop chatter in your head judging every move you make? Is the constant loop of negative thinking making you feel like you are not good enough? No matter how many times you try to talk yourself out of this—you just can't seem to shake it. You are doing all the things you’ve been told to do and yet something is missing. You feel alone. You feel misunderstood. You feel anxious. You turn to food, alcohol, Netflix, or whatever else that can make these feelings go away. You promise yourself that next week will be different. You will start the new diet or the new program, you will commit to being a new you. What if there is another way? I work with women to get this cycle can end. There can be freedom from the despair caused by believing that you are not good enough. You want a deeper connection in your relationships. You want more joy in your life. You want less stress and worry. I can help you get there. There is a different path.

Kelli Lundin is a trauma informed yoga teacher, writer, Land protector, Kundalini and Vishoka meditation practitioner, and mother of 4. Trained by Gabor Maté and Sat Dharam Kaur in the Compassionate Inquiry process, Kelli's intention as a psychotherapist is to bring awareness to all facets of ourselves. When we witness these parts with compassion, we become whole, liberated, and restored to our True Nature. As we become more present and connected with ourselves, there is safety and space for authentic expression through our body, psyche, life, and community. Kelli specializes in Complex Trauma; "a psychic wound that hardens you psychologically and then interferes with your ability to grow and develop. It pains you and now you're acting out of pain. It induces fear and now you're acting out of fear. Trauma is not what happens to you, it's what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you." This is often revealed through symptoms of depression, anxiety, and addiction. Our emotions are not tangential to our health. They are a signaling intelligence that can alert us to all sorts of phenomenon in our experience.

Hi, I’m Desiree, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who appear capable on the outside but internally struggle with chronic self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing. Many of my clients worry they are “too much” or not good enough, even while managing a lot in their lives. In therapy, we focus on understanding these patterns and where they come from, while building self-trust, stronger boundaries, and more confidence in your decisions. My approach is relational and person-centered, and I see people as whole humans, not diagnoses. Clients often share that they feel comfortable opening up with me quickly and that they feel genuinely heard. I believe that kind of connection is a key part of meaningful change.

I love to assist clients with various goals, whether it is short-term or long-term. Mindfulness, meditation and relaxation techniques are MY THANG! Self-care is also very important and I will ALWAYS remind you of this during our sessions. I am looking forward to working with you and tackling these goals and obstacles together! :-)

From a young age, I’ve been drawn to people—their stories, their emotions, and the quiet places where they carry their pain. After experiencing my own seasons of grief and change, I realized how powerful it can be to have someone walk beside you through it. Becoming a therapist felt less like a decision and more like a calling to offer the support I once needed myself. Today, I’m honored to hold space for others as they navigate loss, healing, and the search for themselves again.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 5 years of experience and I approach my client's care the same way I'd approach my own- transparently, empathically, and with a bit of humor sprinkled in. I try my best to provide a warm, collaborative space where children, teens, and adults feel safe, supported, and understood. I have extensive experience working with youth and especially enjoy supporting teens as they navigate anxiety, life transitions, school stress, identity development, and family or peer relationships. All the good stuff! My approach is compassionate, CBT oriented, and strengths-based, helping clients build insight, develop coping skills (by the time we are done, you will have a whole toolbox full of skills to dive into!) and create meaningful, lasting change.

Welcome! I'm Erica Fitts, LMFT You're here, which means that you have taken steps toward enhancing your mental wellness. Beginning your therapy journey can be scary, exciting, and powerful. One of the primary benefits of therapy is emotional support and validation. I encompass a therapeutic, non judgmental, safe space for clients to express themselves freely. I foster a sense of comfort, empathy, and compassion while helping clients navigate their emotions and gain fresh perspective. Therapy serves as a tool for self exploration. By engaging in meaningful introspective exercises clients will develop healthier coping tools, leading to personal growth.

Thank you for visiting my profile. I am an integrative therapist with over 20 years of experience supporting women through life transitions, especially through relationship challenges, anxiety, parenting, neurodiversity and trauma. My work is grounded in deep listening, compassion, and an intuitive understanding of each client's unique inner world. I believe healing happens in the context of feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach is collaborative, strength-based, and integrative, drawing from evidence-based modalities while honoring your unique healing process. I truly believe that you are "your best healer" and the work is about connecting you back to your innate wisdom. I also offer Somatic Experiencing (SE) and neurobiology informed therapy to help you process and heal trauma and therapy is also available in German as I am a native speaker.

Are you tired of being the emotional project manager in your relationships? Do you find yourself over-explaining, over-giving, or over-functioning for people you love? Are you the peacekeeper… even when it costs you your voice? Do you stay calm on the outside while mentally writing resignation letters from relationships? Well hello — I’m really glad you’re here. If you’re the woman who looks capable on the outside but feels stretched thin, overwhelmed, or quietly exhausted on the inside, you’re in the right place. I’m Katrina, a Christian therapist who works with high-achieving women navigating relationship shifts, workplace stress, and the pressure of holding it all together. My work blends evidence-based approaches like Compassion-Focused Therapy and CBT with faith-centered values, creating a space where you don’t have to choose between emotional healing and your spiritual beliefs. Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you — it’s about helping you slow down, set healthier boundaries, untangle the mental noise, and reconnect with who you are beneath the expectations and responsibilities. This is a place where you can stop performing, be honest, and feel supported as you move toward clarity, peace, and purpose. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands both your ambition and your faith, I’d love to walk alongside you. Let’s turn survival mode into sustainable growth — and help you feel grounded, confident, and hopeful again. Schedule an appointment today, and let’s take the next step together.

I have over 40 years of experience as a medical professional, first as a physical therapist and in 1994 as a Clinical Psychologist upon receiving my license. I have integrated the two professions with many clients, especially those with issues of pain. I have been able to coordinate my knowledge to deal with clients concerns. I offer a very open and supportive environment which allows safe self exposure. I have worked with anxiety, depression, relationship and pain and dysfunction issues. I include this expertise in my work with couples, heterosexual or same sex.

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.

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.

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.
