Many of my clients see me for support with managing their chronic pain or illness. Others are looking to heal from trauma, anxiety, or burnout. I’m deeply committed to working with diverse & marginalized communities. I often meet with women of color, professionals from immigrant families, and trans and gender expansive folks. I'm also passionate about helping fellow AAPI folks navigate difficult family and cultural dynamics, or challenge the inner critic & imposter syndrome at work.

Rori Sante

Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore your goals and rediscover your power. I work with individuals navigating concerns like queer and trans issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, PnP/chemsex, relationships, attachment, disability, and neurodivergence. I take an intersectional approach, recognizing how oppression and stigma shape mental health and fostering resilience to drive meaningful change.

Vera Fleischer

One thing that a lot of my clients have in common is a harsh inner critic. This critic can affect your self-esteem, cause anxiety or depression or both, or hold you back from pursuing your dreams. I look at the inner critic is as a part of you. I want to make space for other parts of you that aren't as dominant so that you can thrive. I also connect well with people who have experienced childhood emotional neglect, meaning that it was difficult to form a solid trusting bond with your caregivers.

Rebekah Smith

There comes a point for many of us when we realize that we don’t want to face our problems alone. We are human after all, and a part of what defines that humanity is our need for each other. I understand how frightening it can be to let people in and get close. You may tend to give more than you get back. You might feel self-critical. You might not know what it is you're needing. I'm here to join you and to help you find the connection and purpose you may be seeking.

Barbara Hooks

Life can be challenging, and at times, despite our best efforts we can feel stuck or lost. My clients are looking to make specific changes in their lives and want an interactive therapist to help provide specific tools and strategies to guide this process. I help clients reduce stress, and shift their relationship to painful emotions. I frequently work with people around boundaries, relationship concerns, life transitions, and issues related to gender identity.

I love working with Queer and Trans folks who feel things deeply and intuitively, are curious about spirituality, who are social justice oriented, and who feel a calling to bring their gifts and offerings into this world! I also specialize in supporting folx who are seeking deeper healing of trauma and oppression. I offer limited sliding scale spots for LGBTTSQIA activists, chronically ill/disabled folx, and BIPOC.

If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, the impact of trauma, a life transition, interpersonal challenges, difficulty functioning in a world designed for neurotypicality, substance use issues, and/or low self-esteem, I am here for you.

Lisa Hobson

We would begin our work together by defining your therapeutic goals, and understanding how they interact with your social context, your skills, your assets, and your challenges. We would talk about coping strategies, self-care, and boundaries. You would risk adopting new thoughts, perspectives, and behaviors. You would commit to working on yourself outside of our sessions, where it really matters. And, after all your hard work you would be ready to celebrate your successes.

Melanie Ferrari

I'm queer and LGBTQIA+ aligned, and many of my clients tend to be as well. I use attachment and trauma informed psych models, and have treated a lot of high-trauma and late diagnosis clients. I'm authentic and direct, and that works very well with people who prefer direct communication and people on the autism and ADHD spectrums.

Jonathan Lee

You’ve survived a complicated childhood or past with minimal or inconsistent support, and remnants of your past influence or take over the present. It’s rare to feel safe / settled enough with others / out in the world. Cycles of heightened stress and shutting down keep you feeling stuck. You’re self-aware (perhaps even knowledgeable about your struggles), but need support taking actionable steps towards deep / lasting transformation and healing. Sound familiar? Specialized help is available!

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar challenges, trauma, and relational struggles. Specializing in working with those navigating active substance use, gender identity questions and those healing from primary or family of origin relationships that were exploitive, invalidating, dysregulating, and have created a daily reality where you do not trust yourself. I hold space for the complexity, fear, and hope that come with releasing old habits and creating new ones.

Chelsie Crilly

My clients typically feel like they are “too much”, their emotions are “too big”, and they are “too sensitive”. I invite clients to alter their thinking and believe they are “enough” through a variety of approaches (see “my approach”). My clients are usually seeking treatment in order to increase their ability to “swim in the sea of emotions”, improve relationships with loved ones, and improve executive functioning skills (such as time management, accomplishing their to-do-list, ect).

Isobel Heath

Therapy improves relationships. The individuals I work with are often tired of repeating the same patterns again and again, whether it's dating abuse, codependency, or chronic relationship conflict, anxiety, avoidance or indecision. They're ready to get to the root causes and finally make real change. Of course, all relationships start with and reflect your relationship to yourself. If you're dealing with a harsh inner critic or low self-worth, this internal relationship needs attention first.

Online Therapy

Abby Weintraub

I work primarily with folks who are: neurodivergent (e.g. autistic, ADHD, or other), chronically ill/disabled (particularly with autoimmune illnesses), queer/LGBTQIAA2S, sexual/gender outsiders, fat-identified and/or hoping to develop a more loving relationship with their body, sex workers, poly folks, and those in non-traditional relationship and family structures. If you've ever been told that you're too much, too negative, or too "in your head," let's talk. I welcome you exactly as you are.
