You know we all deal with our issues and sometimes we cannot do it alone. It is hard to talk to a stranger but give it a try. You won't be judged but welcomed and listened to. I am here to work together with you.
I am a licensed psychologist and love working with diverse clients from diverse backgrounds who are dealing with the issues like anxiety, depression, identity, relationship, and life change difficulties. As a Korean immigrant myself, I particularly have great knowledge and experience working with Asian/ Asian Americans, People of Color and immigrants. I have a Master's degree in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling, and a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology.

I am drawn to working with clients who are dealing with adjustment issues: life transitions, changes, and loss, at any stage of life. I also work with clients dealing with mild to moderate depression and anxiety, existentialist questions over life purpose and meaning, LGBTQ and POC experiences around discrimination and trauma, the interest in developing a positive and personal spirituality, and as an adjunct support in fostering abstinence around substance use issues (therapy does not replace 12 step work, but it can be a powerful form of support for individuals in recovery). I have also worked a lot with clients grappling with codependency, setting boundaries, and developing self-esteem. I like to take an eclectic approach that uses solution-focused and CBT therapy for present day situations, psychodynamic theory for past childhood losses and trauma, and art therapy for exercises in between therapy appointments that can be processed in session.
I am a gay man, with a husband and son; I'm 33 years sober and have 20 years of experience working in the visual arts, plus a doctorate in philosophy.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who have been practicing for over 12 years. My passion is working with adults and guiding them in overcoming trauma and healing wounded child parts. This passion is due to my own healing journey as a child who was touched inappropriately, exposed to domestic violence in a military household where my father abused drugs, and later experienced the death of my then 3-year-old son . Through my own healing journey, I learned how to "manage" my symptoms after receiving CBT therapy and grief counseling but had never healed from my trauma or knew about a wounded child part until receiving my own EMDR counseling.
Before healing, I experienced symptoms consisting of low self-esteem, mood instability, not feeling safe, trust issues, and the need to control everything which negatively impacted my relationships with others. The journey was difficult but successful, thanks to EMDR. Thankfully, your journey doesn't have to be difficult. EMDR and Brainspotting are two highly effective modalities in treating trauma by helping to heal wounded parts through the brain's own healing process. If you're tired of feeling that you're always being judged, feeling stuck and unable to move forward because “something” is holding you back, experiencing trust or relationship issues, not feeling as if you're good enough, or if you're waking up sad, angry, irritable, or depressed and not understanding why, you may have a wounded part that's ready to heal. If so, I would be honored for the opportunity to help the wounded part within you to recognize that they're safe, they can trust, and that they're good enough.

Welcome to my hybrid practice! I offer in-person appointments on M/W and virtual appts on Thurs. I invite you to learn a little about me. I'm a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist in CA who former clients describe as warm and welcoming with strong advocacy skills. I've been told my listening skills are excellent, understanding the deeper part in someone who may be hurting, helping them find their strengths and supports.
My credentials include receiving my MS in Counseling from CSU, Sacramento in 1997, becoming licensed in 2003, becoming a Clinical Supervisor in 2005, and receiving my Level 1 certification in Narrative therapy from the Vancouver School for Narrative Therapy in 2012. (Not bad for someone who was told she wasn't college material back in high school!)
In May of 2005, I opened my private practice and recently found an interesting niche. Vet med mental health! Did you know veterinarians are 3x more likely than the general public to die by suicide? After working in vet med for 6 years as a mental health professional at the #1 vet school, I would be honored to continue to serve all in the veterinary community. From veterinarians to client service represenatives, I love helping veterinary medical professionals overcome compassion fatigue, burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome. This allows them to focus on those furry, cuddly patients of theirs, including some that are not so furry and cuddly. I also enjoy working with pet parents whose pets are seen by Behavioral Veterinarians.
Other services available include support groups, wellness coaching & trainings, and Clinical Supervision for Associates who need an outside supervisor. In my personal life, I enjoy time with my dog, friends, and family! I'm a dog lover for sure as I cannot walk past a dog without stopping to say hello!

In navigating life's twists and turns, many of my potential clients find themselves at crossroads, uncertain of the next step forward. Some carry the weight of past traumas, seeking solace and understanding as they strive to heal. Others grapple with the hard questions, the ones that keep them awake at night, questioning their purpose and direction. In recognizing that there can be multiple truths, I offer a unique perspective that honors individual experiences and perspectives, especially for those who have felt unseen, unheard, or misunderstood. What sets me apart is my commitment to seeing each person as an individual.
Lutishia's approach to therapy is rooted in the power of a simple conversation. She provides a judgment-free zone where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. Whether guiding clients through challenging life transitions, addressing trauma, or navigating relationship dynamics.
With Lutishia, clients can expect a collaborative and empowering therapeutic experience aimed at fostering positive change and personal growth. I invite you to have quick chat with me. Let's explore what your needs are and work together to find the best fit for you.

I absolutely love helping folx move past barriers so that they can live their fulfilled and desired lives. I am deeply honored to support the beauty that is within each person. Using EMDR, expressive arts therapies (e.g., music, art, writing), play therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, self-love, and community-care practices, I use a strengths-based and collaborative approach. This approach encourages opportunities for people to see themselves as so much more than what has happened to them. I provide therapeutic environment for people to usher in lives that are expansive, grounded and rooted.
