Hi, I'm Celeste!
I am passionate about helping people live a happier life- whether that means learning how to better manage anxiety, working through traumas, or developing a kinder inner monologue. I believe in order to make any changes, we must first understand how we got here. That is why I place a big emphasis on insight and help you understand how you got where you are, why it makes sense, and how we can change it.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT100605). I received my B.A. in Psychology at Loyola University of New Orleans and earned an M.A. in Sociology at the University of Pittsburgh as well as an M.A. in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Community Psychology.
I prefer to utilize a clinical approach that enlists some of the strategies aligned with CBT but guided by principles outlined by positive psychology which highlight the idea that identifying personal strengths can create the impetus for productive and satisfying outcomes.
I hope to play a part in supporting my clients as they seek to live a more authentic life. I believe that we are all attempting to be our best selves in spite of the complications we experience in our lives. My aim is to help my clients to fully explore some of the assumptions they hold about themselves and their life. Whether we are struggling with depression, anxiety and/or life changes...we must find the courage to face our truths and figure out how to get our needs met.
I aspire to offer a space of non-judgment, understanding, and exploration in order for my clients to begin a process of self-reflection that will allow them to gain clarity around the steps they need to take to begin to live their life fully. A tenet of my approach is the belief that self-efficacy can create life changes. I firmly believe that the key to changing one's life resides within themselves. I would be honored for the opportunity to work with clients who are willing to do the work it takes to begin to live a full and authentic life.

Hi, I’m Marixa. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy as well as a Master of Science in Educational Counseling. I have experience supporting individuals who are navigating challenges such as low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and feeling “stuck” or disconnected.
I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to each client’s unique needs. One method I often integrate is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which, when combined with talk therapy, has helped many of my clients reduce the intensity of their symptoms and move closer to their goals.
I have also completed the Brain Health Professional Certification from Amen University and am part of the Amen University alumni network of certified professionals. This training informs my work with a more holistic, brain-based understanding of mental health and wellness.
I believe that healing begins when we allow ourselves to truly feel and process what’s beneath the surface. Taking that first step can feel overwhelming, but it’s often the most powerful move toward becoming more aligned with who you are and how you want to feel.

You might be in a very dark sad and lonely place, or you may be feeling intense anxiety and sometimes even panic or perhaps you are dealing with a lot of pain and uncertainty due to illness or disability. Right now, you’re at the point of knowing that something has to change, you’re ready but you just don’t know how to do it on your own.
You want to feel better. You just want to be yourself again, maybe a different or better version of yourself. As your therapist I can be a flashlight as you walk through this shadowy path that you find yourself on right now.
Whether I use solution focused therapy, DBT, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, trauma informed CBT, Emotionally Focused couples therapy or a mix, what matters most is the safe environment we will create so that you can share openly and allow yourself to be vulnerable with someone who will truly listen, support and empower you as you create the best version of yourself possible.

Hello there! Are you seeking empowerment, fulfillment, or healing from past trauma? I provide a safe space to accompany you on a journey of self-discovery. I believe in the interconnectedness of our minds, bodies, spirits, and relationships, and I address each of these personal facets to help you emerge holistically. My therapeutic style draws from various approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), attachment therapy approach, and Brainspotting (BSP).
I value the relational aspect of psychotherapy, and with my guided questions, you will be invited to find your answers to improve your sense of self and deepen your connection with yourself and others.
I hold a CA license to practice psychotherapy as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 105889. In CA, I see clients via Telehealth (Zoom.)

Hello! I'm Amber, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been in the field of psychotherapy for 20 years and have the honor of working with many indivudals experiencing many different situations. My theories of choice are Psychodynamic and CBT, however, I use a whatever-it-takes approach with clients to help them think, feel and do their best. Depression, anxiety and substance abuse/misuse are the areas I have concentrated on for the past 10 years. My skills include empathy, compassion and I also find, a good dose of humor goes a long way toward healing. Together we will find a way to help that will work best for you.

Hi there! I’m Jeff.
Do you feel alone, stuck, or unable to reach your potential in your relationships, career, or overall health? Is it hard to accept yourself or others? Are you struggling to communicate with the people you care most about? YOU deserve support!!
I help people through life changes, anxiety, depression, grief, and addictions. We can explore what works and does not work in your life and find useful next steps together. With evidence-based approaches, we can empower you to take action on what matters most to you.
I applaud you for your courage to explore therapy and support options. In safe and compassionate conversations, we will learn together what can increase your overall satisfaction and sense of connection in life. Let’s start that journey together!
NOTE: At this time, I am not working with minor clients.
SCHEDULING NOTE: While some assistance may be offered during sessions, clients are responsible to schedule follow-up sessions to ensure a desired and treatment-recommended frequency. Unless otherwise agreed upon, if no session occurs for 3 weeks, the therapeutic relationship may be considered terminated. Thanks for assisting in keeping services and progress workable!

Hello! I'm Michael and if you are reading this, you are likely considering therapy as an avenue to make a change in your life. This is the first step in building the life you deserve. Are you overwhelmed by your emotions? Stuck in your past? Worried about the future? Do you just feel...blah...like you can't quite put your finger on what's wrong? You are in the right place! These are questions I can help you answer.
I help men and women improve emotional skills, reduce symptoms, and develop coping skills to deal with life's challenges. Together, we will create a plan that works for you. This is your life and only you know the answer. You just need a little help uncovering it.
Change is scary and uncomfortable, but if you can choose to show up anyway, amazing things can happen. I realize coming to therapy can be tough and so I like to make your experience with me as safe and comfortable as possible.
I hope to hear from you soon.
