My goal in my counseling is to help my clients live deeply fulfilling lives. I help clients increase their psychological flexibility through various tools and approaches including evidence-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to change their thought patterns. I use experiential approaches including Hypnotherapy to work with subconscious minds and remove blocks that are deep in their psyche. I also provide mindfulness training, which is one of the key techniques for the clients to be more present and accepting in their lives, rather than react reflexively.
Each individual's struggles are complex and tied to many factors including their social environment, their physical health, the phases of their lives, skills they already possess, etc. In other words, change can happen in a variety of ways and that's what counseling can help with, pointing out the direction and even the next steps that can help the client to get to their goals and intentions.
I work with clients experiencing sleep disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, mood issues, ADHD, career counseling, and those who simply need a tune-up.
My approach varies based on your individual needs. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory and Solution Focused models, to help create awareness and understanding. Together, we work toward meaningful change that fits your life and goals. I have lengthy experience in high acuity, crisis settings, educational settings, and life challenges.
My communication style is calm, personable, and accommodating. I want my clients to feel comfortable and connected with me, and I take pride in my nonjudgmental listening. I became a therapist because I have a genuine interest in helping others become the best version of themselves. I've been naturally drawn to supporting people since I was young, trusted by friends and active in my community.
I’m Tyler Dawnee Young, LCSW, with over a decade of experience in mental health and healthcare settings. I work with high-achieving adults who are thoughtful, self-aware, and often overwhelmed beneath the surface. My approach is relational, insight-driven, and collaborative, focused on helping clients feel understood, make sense of long-standing patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy works best when the relationship feels right and when clients are willing to engage actively in the process—not just in session, but in their everyday lives as well.

Hello! My name is Ari. My pronouns are they/them/theirs.
I have been practicing therapy for 5 years, and have worked with neurodivergent children and adults for 10+ years.
Some things I love the most are: good food, weird art, and my little Maltipoo.
I am a good fit for children, teens, or adults who are autistic, have symptoms of ADHD/ADD, and other mental health symptoms.
I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, spirituality, chronic health conditions, relationship challenges, dating, career path, life purpose and self-esteem.
I take a holistic approach to therapy, I support healing by exploring all aspects of the self—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. I believe therapy is a means of supporting yourself, a safe place to process emotions, a way to gain clarity, a way to feel supported and a way to feel understood.
I value honest, open communication and work to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard without judgment.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC), and Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD), I create a safe, supportive space where clients can navigate complex trauma, betrayal trauma, and family-of-origin dysfunction. I specialize in helping individuals heal from environments marked by abuse, fear, instability, coercive control, neglect, poor boundaries, and addiction—often resulting in intergenerational trauma and nervous system-level injury.
My focus includes recovery from narcissistic abuse, enmeshments, and trauma bonds. Additionally, as a Dialectical Behavior Therapy Clinician (C-DBT), Mood Disorder Professional (CMDP), and ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP), I help clients validate their experiences, normalize emotions, and build resilience.
I grew up in an environment with people who never discussed mental health; this sparked an early interest in the unspoken challenges I observed. As a dual major in psychology and sociology, my coursework was impactful, and the lessons continued in graduate school, where I earned dual master’s degrees in social work and public administration. I interned at a domestic abuse shelter, a short-term residential crisis center, and a community behavioral health facility, and completed specialized trauma-informed care training.
My professional experience includes working at a nonprofit supporting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, serving as a behavioral specialist for children with autism, ADHD, and adjustment challenges, and supervising social workers at county behavioral health agencies. I have also managed case management teams of social workers and nurses assisting individuals with catastrophic illnesses, and led project teams of case investigators, contact tracers, data analysts, and public health nurses responding to infectious disease outbreaks. I remain deeply committed to helping clients heal from psychological, emotional, and other forms of abuse and mental injury, as these challenges can affect every facet of life and well-being.
Greetings! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. During my undergraduate career at Towson University in Baltimore, Maryland I studied Psychology with a minor in Family Studies.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in California, and I work with clients statewide via telehealth. I am also a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional, and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. My therapeutic approach is integrative, multicultural focused, collaborative, and strength based. I like to meet people where they are at, utilizing evidence-based practices, and tailoring therapy to each individual with respect to their cultural backgrounds, and their intersecting identities that they bring into the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to help people make changes that allow them to live and function at their highest potential.
Do you ever feel alone, overwhelmed, or stressed? You are not alone. All individuals experience life, and with life comes pain. It can be hard to talk to friends or family about painful emotions, and I want to help. I use an integrated approach with all clients. I believe in using an eclectic approach to help clients meet their goals for therapy. I am an Advanced Trauma Certified Practitioner and use EMDR and a trauma-focused approach to process past trauma that is impacting their lives today.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, self-esteem concerns, depression, and the impact of trauma. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore thoughts, emotions, and patterns with honesty and curiosity.
My approach integrates CBT and DBT to build practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and strengthen communication, while also incorporating Jungian-oriented insight to deepen self-understanding and meaning.
My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, self-aware, and empowered, supporting lasting change, clarity, and emotional balance.

My work focuses on helping you manage distressing emotions so they don’t feel overwhelming or in control of your life.

Hello! My name is Kishla Preston and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, Georgia, Alabama and Florida. I have been practicing for the past 12 years and have loved every moment of it. I have had the heart to help other since the age of 10. So much so, that, in high school, I ended up taking custody of the 2-month-old child of a family friend until he was age 2, while his mother gained stability. That being said, I have a special place in my heart for children, young adults and mothers. My personal goal for every client I meet is to make their lives a little bit better than it was before we found one another.

Hi, I’m Lois, Mother of 3 amazing boys, business owner and lover of life. I have learned so much through my years of working with clients individually, in groups and with families and couples. What I have learned is that as humans we are resilient! We have been given this life to have joy and life lessons. I have been honored to guide and encourage many clients over the last 20 years. It is my life purpose to help others especially when they cannot see the abundance and joy that is around us. I use many different modalities to guide clients on their journey. One of my main modalities is EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) which are both very effective healing modalities. I'm always excited to learn new techniques and offer a variety of modalities to assist my clients in their healing journey. I also use short-term solution-focused therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness among others to bring about change.
I truly believe as a therapist I must do my own work, for I cannot take you to a place that I have not visited. I have done many years of my own therapy, attended healing retreats, participated in group therapy and attended 12 step meetings, writing and more recently I became certified as a Kundalini Yoga teacher. My main goal for the Kundalini teacher training was to deepen my practice, to understand myself and others on a deeper level and to inspire others to use self care, chanting and meditation to create healing physically, spiritually and mentally.
I am deeply committed to walking alongside my clients as they explore and address the challenges they face. My approach is grounded in deep listening, providing thoughtful feedback, and helping you gain a clearer understanding of yourself and your experiences. I believe true change happens when we are able to confront and process difficult emotions, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
In my practice, I use effective therapeutic techniques like Brainspotting and Culturally Competent approaches to help you work through the root causes of emotional distress. These methods allow for deeper healing and lasting change, helping you move past obstacles and embrace personal growth.

Having struggled to find a therapist who truly embodies these values, I am dedicated to providing an inclusive, affirming, and safe environment for all of my clients. My goal is to help you live more authentically and confidently, fostering a sense of empowerment as you navigate your unique journey toward healing.

Hello! My Name is Georgina, I am an LCSW practicing in Southern California. I specialize in the areas of relationship and family trauma. I take an inclusive, person-centered approach to explore how our past experiences influence the way we walk through the world. My goal is to help you find authentic confidence in the ways you engage in self-care, relationships, and the ongoing transitions in your life.
If you feel as though your foundation for relationships (familial, platonic, or romantic) was not built on solid ground, I am here to help. It is easy to feel alone when we are struggling. Community is an essential part of our lives, and improving how we seek connection is imperative. Together we can develop the skills needed to meet life with confidence.
Starting therapy can be both exciting and intimidating. Our healing journey can sometimes lead us down unfamiliar paths that are difficult to navigate alone. Sharing our innermost concerns, although vulnerable, can provide some relief. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, non-judgmental space for you to explore your worries and gain some peace of mind.
*PLEASE NOTE: I am not able to accommodate for session times that are not shown on my scheduling availability calendar. If you would like to have session with me it must be at the times available on the scheduling calendar.*

If this sounds like a good fit for what you’re looking for, I’d love to connect and explore how I can support you.
Trauma can hurt long after the painful events are over. It creeps into our relationships and makes it hard to love and trust others. Often, even more painfully, it makes it hard to love and trust ourselves. Often we try to ignore it, avoid it, try to forget it, but the hurt and memories always seem to come back. Maybe you find it hard to trust others, unsure if they are safe. Maybe you notice you are a "people pleaser", worried about making others happy but not happy yourself. If people in your life have hurt you, I want you to know that you are not alone, and healing is possible.
As a trauma therapist, I will help you connect how the story of your past echoes into your present. I will support you in identifying the hangups that get you stuck and help you to get a foothold in your life. As you heal from your past and harmful coping, I will support you with taking control of your life and moving towards the goals you've hoped for.
I have the best job in the world. It's an incredible experience to connect to people, many whom have never been able to safely share about themselves, and help them feel heard, validated, and supported. Starting therapy can be nerve-wracking, but if you are interested, or even curious, I'd be happy to work with you.

I'm an LMFT based in California, and for the past 14 years, my passion has been helping adults (18+) break free from the patterns that keep them feeling limited and frustrated. I help you clarify your needs and guide you toward making the responsible choices that lead to deep, sustainable change in your life and relationships. I have a Master's from Hope International University and am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Psychology.
I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist with a deep passion for human stories — stories of courage, resilience, healing, and change. I bring warmth, curiosity, and humor into the therapy space, and I aim to create a relationship that feels welcoming, attuned, and supportive.
I work with thoughtful, motivated, and often creative adults who may appear to have it all together on the outside, but carry a lot beneath the surface. Many of my clients are navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, or burnout, while others come feeling creatively blocked, disconnected from purpose, or unsure of what wants to come next. Some arrive with a quieter sense that something meaningful wants attention — a desire to understand themselves more deeply and feel more present and alive.
Over time, you may begin to notice familiar patterns in how you relate to yourself and the world. These patterns may show up as perfectionism, constant striving, intellectualizing, or people-pleasing — ways of coping that once made sense in earlier family, cultural, or relational environments, but over time can lead to exhaustion, disconnection, or a sense of not fully being yourself.
In therapy, I offer a space to slow down and listen inward. We work at a pace that honors the wisdom of your nervous system, gently exploring patterns while also strengthening your capacity for grounding, connection, and self-trust. Alongside the deeper work, there is room for play, creativity, and moments of wonder — for reconnecting with what brings meaning, pleasure, and aliveness. My hope is to support and empower you in moving toward a more meaningful, authentic, and joyful life.
