I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families. My professional experience includes inpatient hospitalization, community-based mental health, and private practice settings, allowing me to support clients with a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges.

Hi, I'm Cassidy, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe that healing starts with a warm, genuine connection. If you’ve been struggling with the weight of depression or anxiety, I’m here to walk alongside you with kindness and understanding. I love combining the 'science' of therapy with human connection, making sure you feel seen and supported while we break down the big stressors into more manageable pieces.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My clinical background includes supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and eating disorders. I also have experience incorporating play therapy when working with children and developmentally appropriate interventions for adolescents.

I believe therapy should be individualized rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand your experiences, concerns, strengths, relationships, and goals for treatment. From there, we work collaboratively to develop a treatment plan that feels meaningful and realistic for you.

My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative while also providing structure and guidance when needed. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed interventions, and other therapeutic modalities based on your individual needs. Whether you are working through past experiences, navigating current challenges, strengthening relationships, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, my goal is to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.

We all carry emotional burdens—some deep and lasting—that shape how we experience ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. Sometimes our pain feels unseen, our emotions misunderstood, or our hearts weary from carrying more than we were meant to bear. I believe healing begins with the courage to look within, understand our experiences, and, when desired, invite God into the healing process.

I am Dr. Sandry Z. Esquivel, Psy.D., LMFT, a bilingual, bicultural therapist and Mexican immigrant. My personal and professional experiences have deepened my appreciation for the ways culture, family, faith, identity, relationships, and life experiences shape our emotional well-being. I strive to create a therapeutic environment where clients feel welcomed, respected, understood, and free to be authentic.

Hi, I'm Tony and my therapy practice is a space of hope, clarity, and limitless compassion. I'm an LMFT with 2 years of experience in private practice, 7 years as a psychotherapist, 11 years providing group support, 15 years as a case manager, and 20 years as a sociologist and community activist. I combine a wide range of impactful psychosocial and somatic approaches to support your freedom, safety, and boundless growth... with ACT, EFT, and Somatic Abolition as my grounding.

Most importantly, my work honors the weight you’ve had to hold during these painful times, and the care you’ve given while also sometimes struggling. Maybe it's been harder to cope lately and you're feeling lost. Maybe you're overburdened, or even totally depleted. Together, we can journey to a new place of relief, discovery, and steadiness. My work is about reconnection, growth, and finally feeling truly supported. You've deserved real care all along. I know it.

I am dedicated to empowering individuals and adolescents with the tools and strategies needed to navigate anxiety, depression, personal and family challenges, and life's transitions.

I specialize in working with teens and adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, family and relationship concerns, feelings of being stuck, and a loss of motivation or joy.

I believe in creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to achieve their personal goals and improve their overall well-being.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with children, youth, adults, couples and families. I work to focus on areas of your concern.

Hello there, thank you for stopping by! My name is Brittni and I am a LMFT. I have worked in community mental health for the last 7 years with severe mental illness. I specialize working with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, marital issues, self-esteem and mother challenges.

I have over 20 years of experience helping clients explore and navigate challenges related to relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. My approach is client-centered, meaning therapy is tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. I integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and Attachment Theory, with particular attention to how early life experiences shape our relationships with ourselves and others.

Living with anxiety, depression, or trauma can create deep feelings of isolation and hopelessness. Relationship struggles and low self-esteem often fuel fear, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm. Breaking cycles of overthinking, managing intense emotions, and facing uncomfortable people or situations can feel exhausting. When emotions feel unstable and life feels heavy, recognizing the need for change is an important first step. While change can be intimidating, having a supportive therapist can make the process feel more manageable and less isolating.

I genuinely care about my clients and strive to meet them with empathy, compassion, and respect. I have helped many individuals navigate difficult life circumstances by increasing self-awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and reflecting on personal experiences. Together, we work to better understand the patterns that may be keeping you feeling stuck or distressed.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Feeling safe and supported is essential for healing and growth. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can speak openly and work toward meaningful change at your own pace.
