Hello, my name is Tiffany Fernandes, and I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in providing evidence-based therapy approaches to help individuals overcome anxiety, depression, and develop effective coping skills. My experience in the field includes working as a counselor in a residential treatment program, and as a licensed therapist and clinical coordinator in an outpatient mental health treatment center. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I integrate both Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) techniques to empower individuals on their journey towards mental wellness.
I am a therapist with 25+ years of experience in diagnosis and assessment, as well as level of care placement and referrals. I practice DBT, CBT, and Animal Assisted Therapy to help adolescents and adults battling anxiety, depression, trauma, or eating disorders. My approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, as I believe clients are the ones in charge of their treatment, and my role is to empower them to achieve their goals. Due to my extensive experience in higher levels of care, I am accustomed to working with complex cases and do not shy away from high acuity. I believe that anyone who comes seeking help is motivated to change and that my role is to facilitate, not to impose. I speak fluently in Spanish and am comfortable conducting assessments and treating clients in this language if that is their preference.

I also offer lower rates on a sliding scale ($50 - $60) with Student MFTs under my supervision. Please contact me directly or via my website for more information.
Insurance:
Individuals, couples, and families: Services not clinically indicated are not always covered by insurance if the primary client/patient is not experiencing a medical necessity. Here's a few examples:
1. Most insurance plans don’t cover marriage counseling because it’s not considered a "medical necessity." That doesn’t mean therapy isn’t valuable, just that insurance companies tend to focus on diagnosed mental health conditions rather than relationship issues.
2. Life coaching or career coaching — focused on professional development rather than treating a mental health condition
3. General stress management without a diagnosed disorder — for example, “I just feel stressed” without a clinical diagnosis
4. Self-improvement or personal growth sessions aimed at building confidence, public speaking skills, or lifestyle changes
5. Vague or exploratory therapy without a clear diagnosis or treatment plan
6. Non-essential wellness or “feel-good” therapy not tied to a specific mental health need

Hello there, I'm Liz! I work with clients who are wanting to heal from past trauma experiences and get to the root causes of their struggles. Trauma changes the way you view yourself, others, and the world. It often has lasting impacts that can be manifested in your current struggles with anxiety, depression, true fulfillment in relationships, diminished executive functioning, and difficulty with honoring your needs and boundaries.
My goal is to help you gain insight, build self-awareness, and foster personal growth. Some areas of focus I enjoy addressing with my clients include boundary building, negative core beliefs, strengthening internal validation, self-care, identifying trauma responses, addressing attachment wounds, aligning to your values, improving daily functioning, and developing healthy coping strategies.
I am trained in a variety of therapeutic models and techniques to help my clients including but not limited to Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Polyvagal Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. For those who desire and request it, I can integrate Christian-based counseling into the therapeutic process. I believe education/knowledge of what you are going through sets the foundation to the therapeutic work you will be doing.
Hi, friends call me Kate. I have been Board Certified for 22 years and bring a variety of work experience to the table.

Hello, I am Margaret a licensed clinical social worker. First, I'd like to say congratulations on taking the step first brave steps to bettering your life. I have spent the past three years working in community mental health with individuals with dual diagnosis provide a safe space and working collaboratively to identify appropriate coping strategies to help improve your lives.
Hi! I'm Dr. Aleesha Grier-Rogers — a licensed, PSYPACT-authorized clinical psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience supporting adults through complex emotional, medical, and life transitions.
I focus on working with women — especially women of color and LGBTQ+ women — navigating three deeply personal journeys: (1) building families through IVF, IUI, donor conception, surrogacy, or adoption; (2) perimenopause and menopause transitions; and (3) physician-assisted weight management via bariatric surgery or GLP-1 medications.
I understand that identity and culture don't exist in the background — they shape every layer of these experiences. From navigating bias and dismissal from providers, to managing the expectations of partners and family, to reconciling your own values with the choices you're making, you deserve a space where all of that is seen, named, and held.
-The journey through IVF, IUI, and donor conception is extremely challenging — I know firsthand. The uncertainty, isolation, fear, and grief that accompany each cycle, each loss, and each decision can be overwhelming. I help clients navigate the emotional highs and lows, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen self-trust at every step of their family-building journey.
-Perimenopause and menopause are too often met with silence or judgment. I meet clients where they are, offering validation, clarity, and tools to navigate emotional, physical, and relational changes with confidence.
-Weight loss/management — even with surgery or GLP-1s — is only half the battle. I help clients manage food noise, triggers, self-criticism, and fear of regain, while reconciling the "new you" in the mirror with the "you" they've carried inside.
If you're tired of feeling alone, unseen, or misunderstood — you're in the right place. I help clients build resilience and agency while navigating bias, stigma, and the unique cultural and relational layers these journeys bring — turning frustration into growth, empowerment, and self-trust.
Do you often see patterns in your life that you would like to change ,yet still repeat them? Counseling sessions will provide the support and guidance to understand and release emotions that keep you stuck. Relationships are key, whether it be your relationship with yourself, your partner, family member or friends, you will be able to develop self awareness and understanding of the influence of family culture and dynamics.
Over 30 years as a therapist, I have worked in a variety of settings , with a wide spectrum of ages and cultures . This experience has deepened my respect for each individual's journey and the influence of their family beliefs. I help clients to acknowledge these beliefs and gradually transform and expand them to enhance rather than limit their lives.
I have enjoyed working with children and adolescents and bring this experience with me , yet I am currently working primarily with adults which includes a special enjoyment to help couples to successfully transform limiting patterns and develop clear communication and listening skills. I have learned so much about life transitions through my work with trauma, hospice, death and dying, treatment foster care, eating disorders and liaison work with educational and community. These experience have strengthen my belief in human resiliency.
All of the sessions are remote and I provide a phone call prior to beginning sessions where you will be able to ask questions to see if we are a good "fit" to work together.

My name is Dr. Olushola Bakare, and I'm a board-certified Psychotherapist. I attended St Joseph College. I'm happy to help you today with any of your concerns. I enjoy empowering people and digging out their strengths. I don't ask fish to fly, neither do I ask birds to swim. I respect everyone's strengths and help my client recognize them. I love to highlight my client's strengths. I offer a safe, warm, therapeutic, judgment-free space for Adults (18+) and Older Adults (65+). I am sorry, but I do not accept clients who pay in cash. Also, every late cancellation or no-show accrues a late charge fee.
It is my ethical duty to officially terminate our therapeutic relationship when it is reasonably clear that the client is no longer beneficent, services are no longer required, counseling no longer serves the client's needs and interests, or Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT limits do not allow the provision of further counseling services.
It is the policy of Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, that our professional relationship will be terminated after a one-month consistent lapse of meeting with a client. Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, will attempt to notify you of this change in status as soon as possible after one month. My ethical duty is identifying, being available, and caring for current clients. It could feel awkward for our relationship to end, yet it is not meant to be discourteous in any way. I do not complete disability forms (Social Security, work excuse, FMLA, Court papers/legal papers, emotional support letters, etc).
NO COUPLE THERAPY OR MEDICATION MANAGEMENT, PLEASE!

I utilize a biopsychosocial approach that highlights the interdependent nature of the body, mind, and social factors and how they might be contributing to the development or continuation of our problems.
Whether you are dealing with depression, family issues, or anxiety, I can help support you in living the life you want. Starting therapy can be a difficult and courageous decision, you have taken the first steps just by being here. I look forward to working with you!

I have always been fascinated by human behavior, the process of producing it and the impact it has on the lives of those involved. From my earliest days of rural living to my time in LA, I truly experienced a journey of wondering in regard to such. Engaging in my own therapy increased my understanding of many of these things. After realizing the inherent value of such work, I was compelled to help others achieve the same by making it a career. I have worked in group and private practice settings since 2004 and currently also assist in running an intensive outpatient program.
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most essential factor of therapy. My clients experience a compassionate, inclusive, and nonjudgmental approach, and feel safe, understood, and cared for in our sessions as they explore their needs and obtain the understanding and skills best suited to them.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who has worked for the past 8+ years in an outpatient program for mental health and substance use. These years have introduced me to various concerns which include mood dysregulation, anxiety, crisis intervention, family conflict, trauma, substance use and abuse, along with severe mental health symptoms and more. I worked in leadership along with holding a clinical caseload so that I can best support the needs of all that entered the building while also supporting the clinical staff and providing guidance so they can confidently help those in need. We live in a world where people gravitate toward a quick fix, that is obvious with the prevalence of addiction. Working in the substance use field led to me focusing more on holistic approaches. It's important to remind people that there are ways that we can address our own symptoms, feel better and have lasting effects rather than that quick fix. In addition, my graduate school experience was working with children ages 5-18, another passion of mine which I look forward to doing again.
