Tired of being at war with your own mind? If anxiety, self-criticism, or feeling "stuck" has you trapped in cycles of rumination, you're in the right place. I specialize in helping people make peace with inner chaos, not just manage symptoms, but transform your relationship with them so you can build a life of purpose from the inside out. Imagine noticing your inner critic without being controlled by it, or feeling anxiety rise and being able to get curious instead of consumed. I earned my Master's Degree in Social Work from San Diego State University and have been practicing for over five years. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist who believes healing happens in connection. My own lived experience with trauma and the transformative support I received inspired me to become the therapist I needed. This personal journey fuels a deep, empathetic commitment to walking alongside my clients with genuine understanding.

As an Author, I've authored books aimed at simplifying complex medical and mental health issues, such as Hospice, Home Health, and Palliative Care.

Your willingness to engage in therapy is deeply appreciated, and I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

Hello, my name is Enrique Botello. Glad you are seeking support. Life is not all about sunshine and rainbows but a good thing that they do exist right.

Whether you are feeling stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or other serious mental health symptoms, there is always hope.

No matter how long the road to the best version of yourself might take you, I will be alongside you. Finally, although not a requirement, I specialize in working with athletes of all ages.

Hello, my name is Megan. I appreciate you taking the leap to want to do something different in your life. I know how hard talking about some of these big life issues can be like the death of our person, living through the struggle of infertility and acknowledging the weight of our anxiety is too much. Sometimes, we are stuck in our loop and yet, we do not have the perspective how to shift the big feelings to make you start to feel better. In the beginning of working together, I want you to feel comfortable sharing your story. Everyone arrives wanting a witness to their grieving at different stages of their process. Your relationship is to different each person had a different relationship to their person. I believe the importance of listening to what is said in the room or what is not said. Many times we are not able to verbalize our pain of trying to live without our person. I think a very necessary part to our healing is to be witnessed by another. My goal is to always create safety in the room. I am a fairly transparent therapist sharing sometimes my personal journey to connect and help clients realize they are not alone in their pain. I look forward to joining you in your healing journey.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and truly understood. My approach is rooted in empathy and validation, creating a safe space for you to explore your experiences and discover meaningful solutions. We will always work with where ever you are in your life journey, and just as much as you decide to do. Therapy should be a voluntary commitment to yourself. Together, we'll go beyond surface-level coping, to uncovering deeper healing and lasting change.

I have worked in various environments, which have included community mental health and medical settings. Throughout my time as a clinician, I have provided services to individuals, couples and families. My cultural background as well as my personal experiences have given me an awareness and a sensitivity to the vast cultural and social identities that exist. I am committed to leading with warmth, empathy, and a fundamental curiosity that reserves assumptions.

You’ve done therapy before. You’re self-aware, insightful, and capable—but your relationships still feel confusing, anxious, or one-sided. You overthink texts, question your needs, or stay in situations that leave you feeling unseen or emotionally drained. Despite insight, the pattern keeps repeating. I specialize in helping women who feel stuck in confusing or painful relationship dynamics understand why this keeps happening—and how to change it. We break cycles of anxious attachment, over-giving, and self-doubt by working at the root—not just understanding it—so you can create relationships that feel clear, secure, and aligned. My work focuses on attachment patterns, codependency, and deeper relational wounds—but more importantly, on helping you create real, lasting change. Together, we build self-trust you can actually rely on, set boundaries that hold, shift relationship patterns at their root—not just manage symptoms. This is active, insight driven work to move you forward.

Exhausted by the way you think about yourself? We are often (if not always) our own worst enemies. Whether this pattern has caused you problems with guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, addiction or you name it - the starting point is generally the same. When we embark on the project of therapy you will be asked to put your painful thoughts and feelings into words. As the process unfolds, the strength and fervor used to overthink and condemn yourself will become accessible to use productively in reaching your goals.

I care about how you feel. My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, clarity, and collaboration. I help you to explore your stories (emotional, relational, and spiritual) with curiosity and care. The therapeutic relationship is the basis for insight and change.

I’m Melissa Lapides, and my work centers around attachment. If you’re dating or in a relationship, we’re going to look at how your early experiences shaped the way you connect, protect, pursue, withdraw, or repeat the same patterns over and over. Together, we make sense of why you’re experiencing the challenges you’re having — not from a place of blame, but from understanding. I work with both individuals and couples to help them build more harmonious relationships rooted in emotional safety, secure connection, and real love and intimacy.

I’m warm, direct, and grounded — think compassionate but honest. I’ll hold space for your pain, and I’ll also gently call you forward when you’re ready.

My goal is to help you feel more regulated, more connected, and more empowered in your relationships and your life. Healing doesn’t have to be dramatic — it can be steady, real, and deeply transformative.

My goal is to help individuals to become the best version of themselves in order to live a meaningful life.

I work with adults who carry a lot — often more than others realize. On the outside, you may seem capable and grounded. On the inside, anxiety feels persistent, old experiences still surface, and the ways you've been coping may no longer be working.

With extensive experience working with professionals in high-stress careers, I understand the unique pressures faced by executives, healthcare providers, entrepreneurs, and other driven individuals who often carry immense responsibility while silently managing burnout, anxiety, or disconnection at home. I believe that people are motivated by a deep desire for belonging, significance, and purpose. My therapeutic work focuses on understanding each client’s lifestyle patterns, early experiences, and core beliefs about themselves, the world and others that shape present-day struggles. Rather than pathologizing, I emphasize encouragement, insight, and personal responsibility—helping clients move from discouragement to confidence and clarity. As an LAADC, I have significant experience supporting individuals overcoming alcohol and substance use disorders, as well as behavioral addictions. I integrate relapse prevention, emotional regulation skills, and values-based goal setting within a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. I recognize that addiction often develops as an attempt to cope with stress, trauma, or relational pain—and help clients build healthier, more sustainable ways to meet those needs. As an MFT, I also have worked extensively with individuals, couples and families navigating conflict, communication breakdowns, and life transitions, as well as individuals coping with grief and loss. My approach is collaborative, practical, and insight-oriented, empowering clients to strengthen relationships, restore balance, and live with greater intention and connection. Some of my interests outside my work include travel, music, baseball and reading.
