Brian La Roy Jones

Don't you agree life should be about more than just feeling *less* anxious, depressed, angry or conflict? I'm not in the “symptom reduction” business – like most therapists. Rather my focus is helping clients like you experience MORE. Picture experiencing not just less of something but more hope, love, connection, self-control, happiness, fulfillment, freedom, confidence, affection, compassion, trust, acceptance, validation, & feeling understood. Can you imagine what that would be like for you?

Ji Eun Ko

I specialize in working with people who hold an intersection of their identity that experiences oppression, racism, erasure, and marginalization. That may be your cultural identity, your sexual identity, or even the ways you are different from the family that raised you. And maybe you're struggling with your sense of self, a traumatic past, or unhealthy relationship patterns. Perhaps you feel out of control with depression and anxiety, and cultural tension. You are looking in the right place.

Alexa Levine

My clients are pregnant, postpartum or parents of young children and toddlers. I especially enjoy supporting clients in navigating changing relationships, lifestyles and other transitions during this time in their lives. I work collaboratively with clients to determine goals for therapy and use a strength based approach to incorporate the client's natural strengths into practical coping skills, as well as strengthen self compassion, self esteem, and confidence.

Maegan Jones

To others you look fine, but on the inside you're struggling. You're tired of feeling scattered, anxious, and stuck while trying to manage different areas of life. You know your past is impacting your present, but you're not sure what to do about it. You know things with your relationships and family are complicated. You’re ready to do the work so you can stop trying so hard without any change. You're ready to sort through the past to live more fully. You're ready to prioritize you.

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.

Laura Grossman

Existing as a queer person is hard. I get it! I specialize in somatic and relational therapy for queer and trans adults and parents who've been through hard things and feel disconnected, small, and exhausted. Maybe this resonates for you! You want to show up in life as your full, messy, and authentic self. You're done and you're ready for more. More connection with yourself. More liberation from old wounds. And more joy in the life you're living right now.

Restarting your life? Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, isolated? Do you feel stuck in the past ? Or maybe you think you are powerless, too old, too young, too different, or low energy? Some of the folks I enjoy working with are members of my queer community, older adults, creative types and people connected to the earth who care about our planet and may be experiencing climate grief. I appreciate transitioners of all types and lovers of learning.

Michael Ceely

Today's challenging world can take its toll, causing worry and uncertainty in people's careers, finances, and relationships. Left unchecked, this stress can pile up, to the point where solutions become obscured. It doesn't have to be that way. I can help you learn the skills to move beyond anxiety and get back in control.

Sarah Brekke-Velazquez

My clients are people who are ready to make some lasting change in their lives. They often find me because they're going through some kind of big life transition (committing to a long-term relationship, thinking about having kids) and are feeling stressed or torn. I love working with folks who might tend to avoid conflict and are seen as people pleasers, who want to learn to speak up for themselves in relationships. I also specialize in working with survivors of sexual violence.

Life can be incredibly beautiful and profoundly challenging. Whether it be a long history of generational trauma within your family, current relationship challenges, or a recent painful event, these experiences can impact how you think and how you feel. When these thoughts and emotions begin to uproot you, it can be so difficult to know what to do and where to go. That's where I can help. The first step to finding a therapist is the most challenging and I’m so glad you’re here.

Rebecca (Rowan) Levy

It may seem that the world is throwing you more than you can practically or emotionally handle. I provide therapy individuals and couples who may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain that they are on the right track, or concerned with how others perceive them. I have often worked with people who are distrusting of their gut, or feel like they don't fit in.

You find yourself wondering how it is possible to be in a relationship and feel so alone. No matter how hard you try to connect with your partner, the two of you just seem to keep missing each other. You miss the fun the two of you used to have, you miss the times when the two of you used to talk so easily. Working with a trained couples therapist can help you to get back on track with your relationship. It is possible to heal, grow and have fulfilling relationships.

Life in the Bay Area is challenging and the additional stress associated with being LGBTQ+, a woman, pregnancy, parenting or all of the above can push it over the edge. High levels of stress can interfere with relationships, parenting, work, self-care and health. Therapy can support you in cultivating a sense of well-being and balance in your life as well as help you overcome specific mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and addictive behaviors.
