I believe life is a journey and everyone has their personal challenges. I enjoy the experience of understanding you and helping you. I am an active participant in sessions by asking questions to fully understand who you are and how best to support you. I individualize your treatment based on what you want, need and who you are. I see myself as a coach to support you in obtaining your goals and a sense of wellness in your life.

Michael Rosengren, LMFT(MFC28696) HI! I am Michael. I am a mental health professional who has worked with people over the years to help them find their way when thoughts, feelings, and circumstances in life become overwhelming and they feel lost. I don't know what to do. Usually, there are thoughts of depression, fear, anxiety, and anger making it hard to navigate the ups and downs in life. Need to discover how to navigate.

I believe everyone, if given a supportive and secure space, can discover their inner-self and learn to appreciate who they genuinely are, which leads to improved relationships. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in California and Taiwan with over 10 years of practice experience. I have helped diverse populations with a wide range of issues in a variety of settings, including a community mental health center, a college counseling center, a domestic violence women's shelter, a re-entry program, an outpatient opiate treatment clinic, skilled nursing homes, a youth correctional counseling program, and an elementary school district.

I hold a safe nonjudgmental space where you can explore, learn new tools, and challenge beliefs that aren't working anymore. I tailor my approach based on your needs and preferences. I specialize in working with adolescents, treating anxiety with or without medication, nontraditional lifestyles and experiences (polyamory, plant medicine, artists, neurodivergence), and people interested in deeply examining their choices, feelings, and beliefs.

I'm Emilio Perdomo, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach as a therapist, is to be collaborative with my client which means we work together to work through past or present challenges. I have worked with clients ages 12-60 years old. By providing you with a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns and providing education, guidance and commitment to the process, I want to help you move toward achieving your personal therapeutic goals. Most of my clients tend to have anxiety, ADHD or depression. I have experience working with clients who are BICOP or LGBTQIA+.

My name is Ty Bufford, LCSW. I specialize working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life stressors, relationship issues, generational trauma, grief, addiction, LGBTQ+ issues, and racial trauma. I utilize CBT, motivational interviewing, strength-based therapy, harm reduction, and solution focused therapy in my treatment and consider each person's unique context and cultural background with my interventions and treatment plans. Thank you for taking the first step during these challenging times. Therapy is a journey, and I am here to walk you through this process.

I arrive at the intersection of compassion & collaboration as I respectfully guide my clients to explore new levels of awareness, self-empowerment, flow, & understanding. Working towards cognitive flexibility, wholeness, and healing. Using empathy & unconditional positive regard as a foundation, I may occasionally challenge you to bring forward awareness with a more direct approach. I welcome the motivation or perhaps ambivalence that comes along with seeking treatment. There is no perfection in the layers that define us, just a journey of experiences & lessons that await discovery, growth and honor.

My name is Marissza Cavin, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based out of Orange County, California, conducting Telehealth sessions statewide. I am experienced in working with individuals suffering from anxiety and depression, as well as couples struggling with their communication and life transitions. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients build insight and coping skills to manage issues more effectively.

Maybe you've been stuck and unable to see your way forward, or feel a burden you can't quite relieve. Often times we can find our way with the support of family or friends. But sometimes we need the help of a certified professional. I view therapy through the lens of self compassion, understanding and collaboration. It is a moving dialogue that shapes our healing. The development of a therapeutic relationship and interventions are individualized because mental health treatment is more than treating symptoms and a diagnosis.

Seeking support takes a lot of courage, and you should be proud of yourself for taking the first step towards building awareness into your own thought processes and behaviors. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 9 years of clinical experience working in university college counseling centers and various teletherapy platforms. I understand how experiences and life transitions can increase stress and begin to impact emotional well-being, relationships, or individual performance.

VIDEO SESSIONS AVAILABLE FOR ALL CLIENTS . . . . . Initiating therapy can be a daunting and challenging process, and that begins with selecting a therapist around whom you will feel comfortable, safe and respected. To help you with that process, I'll start by sharing a few things about myself. I became a therapist because I discovered that it was a large part of who I am. Even at an early age, I found that I was often the person others felt safe to let their guard down with - to share what was happening below the surface, and to seek out my advice.

As a therapist, I aim to provide a space where my clients feel safe and comfortable opening up. I believe the most important aspect of therapy is the therapist and client relationship and I aim to be a safe container. There can be many reasons as to why you are seeking therapy and I am here along your journey. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trauma-informed, and a Holistic approach when treating clients. I will help you become more aware, understand yourself better, and assist in helping you change your thought process. I hope that therapy can be a place for self-exploration, self-connection, and self-actualization.

I have been fortunate enough to work with people of all ages, and it has taught me that when given the opportunity, each person is able to step into the best version of themselves even when their circumstances are difficult. At the core of our being, we all long to be connected, whether that is with others in relationships or with ourselves. My experience has allowed me to work predominantly with adults who have experienced depression, self-harm, anxiety, postpartum depression, relationship issues, work/life balance, adjustment disorders, and trauma (including various forms of abuse and violence).

I believe in the healing force within each person and its natural inclination to arc towards wholeness and health. If we want it enough, have patience, clarity and support we can heal and feel freedom in life. Growth happens best in relationship and I am here to support you on your path, wherever that might be. I am anchored in Jungian psychology, Existentialism and AEDP/Somatic work. More importantly, I try to cultivate a sense of warmth, care, respect and curiosity in my work with clients. I work with clients experiencing: anxiety, depression, grief, relationship/family issues, PTSD, self-criticism and lack of meaning.

I believe we all want a sense of satisfaction in life. Somewhere along the way we may create false beliefs, stories and exhibit maladaptive behaviors all with positive intention. But in reality, we are further disconnecting us from our true selves in the process. Helping my clients to be gentle and compassionate towards themselves and exploring the ways they learned to cope, adapt and respond to the world is the first step towards recovering their true selves. Then the journey of awareness, introspection and healing can begin.

I have an extensive background in providing psychotherapy for individual adults, couples, adolescents and traditional as well as non-traditional families from various ethnic, cultural, religious and socio-economic backgrounds. I believe that everyone has strengths and all the ingredients to acquire self-love, peace and happiness. My job is to help a client tap into those strengths and ingredients. My job is to provide a platform for which clients can begin to identify and experience healthy ways to be in a relationship with others and themselves.

There is no "one size fits all" therapy approach but my goal as a psychotherapist is to help each unique client strengthen relationships, gain resilience, heal from pain and create hope for their future.

Struggling with a mental health or emotional issue? A difficult child/teen? In your relationship? Difficult life transitions? Addiction issues? Gender Identity? Family reunification? I can help you overcome your problems and embrace a healthier lifestyle. You deserve a therapist who will truly strive to understand the way you think. I will take the time to understand your thought processes, emotions, fears, and concerns. Of course, seeking therapy is not always easy; but you deserve to get the help you need to live a happy, fulfilling life.

Welcome! Navigating through life’s challenges can be overwhelming at times, and a guiding hand can help you get through these difficult times. Here’s where I can help: I provide a safe and nonjudgemental space to help you discover your unique strengths, identify self-defeating thoughts and unhealthy behavioral patterns. My style in therapy is warm, client-focused, collaborative, and empowering. In our work, I’ll support you in cultivating skills to overcome obstacles and achieve your therapy goals.
