Online Therapists in San Francisco, CA
I offer afternoon and evening in-person and Zoom psychotherapy, depending on availability.
Do you long for a deeper sense of peace, wholeness and connection to life? Do repetitive patterns prevent you from having a fulfilling life and satisfying relationships? Any issue or symptom, such as addiction, depression or anxiety, or an underlying sense of disconnection, fear or doubt, is a message from your unconscious that something inside Is out of alignment. We will collaboratively explore your experiences and their meaning to help you connect to yourself and life in a fuller and more satisfying way.

I believe that therapy can help you feel more connected to yourself and those around you, freer to pursue your goals, and more alive. My approach is to provide a warm supportive environment so you can feel comfortable and able to speak about whatever is distressing you. I like to work collaboratively, exploring both the past and the present, to figure out what is preventing you from feeling more fulfilled. Together, we will develop strategies to remove these obstacles.

I offer in-person at the Marina Counseling Center and online sessions via Zoom.
Often, the environments we are accustomed to can greatly impact the way we relate to our authentic self. Therapy is a place for us to get curious about how we want to show up in the world versus how we think are expected to. If you are seeking to work through patterns of shame and more deeply connect with yourself and community, I am here to be a witness. Hailing from the east coast I consider therapeutic style to be both warm and direct. I am especially passionate about supporting individuals seeking to explore how their ancestors’ lives continue to influence their own.

Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy with Kylie
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW

San Francisco, CA 94115
Secure video sessions also offered for adolescents and adults.
It's hard to see your autistic child suddenly melt down, act out, or struggle to make friends. Kids can develop ways of coping that seem confusing or destructive when they're neurodiverse, because self-regulation and communication are hard in a neurotypical world. I see it as my job to help your child use the language of play to express emotions, solve problems, & learn to navigate a neurotypical world without suppressing their autistic self.

We all get stuck at some point in our lives. Sometimes we compensate by reverting to older, familiar patterns of coping, that may have been effective in the past, but don't quite address the complexity of the problems you face today.

A lot of us have a hard time asking for help. Fear, shame, or needing to be self-sufficient are feelings that can get in the way of recognizing when we need help--and reaching out and asking for it. My approach to therapy creates a safe place where sensitive, painful or scary feelings can be openly explored without judgment. We form a partnership to figure out what is going on and how to move forward. I'm actively engaged in our work--it's a partnership, after all--to help you overcome problem behaviors and develop better ways of coping.

I offer online therapy via video to adult women in California.
You're capable, responsible, and used to figuring things out. People depend on you-and you deliver. But your mind rarely stops. You anticipate problems before they happen. You hold yourself to a standard that's hard to maintain-and it's even harder to relax. You feel constant overwhelm.
I work with women like you-high-functioning, insightful, and quietly exhausted from carrying anxiety that never fully turns off. Instead of trying to eliminate anxious thoughts, together we change your relationships to them-so they stop driving your decisions and your day-to-day experience. Sessions are active, focused, and collaborative.

I offer private secure online video sessions to clients allowing me to connect quickly, easily and ably when face to face is not an option.
The people I've been able to help most feel stuck and crave direction in recovering an assured sense of who they are and their potential. We are all creatures of adaptation, and many of us learn early on to adjust to whatever the world asks of us. In modern times this can too easily lead to information overload, causing us to internalize the priorities of our parents, peers, and culture - agendas that don't always serve our own interests. This disconnection from our authentic selves often leads to anxiety, depression, and career dissatisfaction.

I currently offer virtual appointments only.
My path into mental wellness began with an internship that showed me just how many people are quietly struggling — and how transformative it can be when the right support finally reaches them. Since then, I have dedicated my career to making that support more accessible, one person at a time.
Because of my fluency in Mandarin, many clients from Mandarin-speaking communities find their way to me — and I hold that trust with great care. Being able to meet someone in their own language means more than words; it means they can express the full depth of their experience without having to translate their emotions first.

Do you feel stuck between two worlds while balancing family expectations and creating a life that feels true to you? Growing up with immigrant parents or grandparents who made sacrifices for a better future is often connected to experiences of intergenerational trauma, self-doubt, guilt, or pressure to succeed. You might struggle with anxiety, stress, burnout, perfectionism, or people-pleasing, while navigating a world that constantly tells you you’re not doing enough. Comparing your life to social media highlight reels can make you feel behind, less successful, or like you should have it all figured out.

I offer virtual therapy sessions for individuals across California and have flexible availability.
Many of my clients are thoughtful, high achieving, deeply feeling people who appear capable on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck internally. You may be neurodivergent, navigating ADHD, masking your needs, struggling with self doubt, or caught in relationship patterns that leave you feeling unseen or disconnected. You may also be carrying the emotional weight of identity, family expectations, grief, or structural stress related to race, gender, sexuality, culture, disability, or belonging. Therapy can be a space where you do not have to perform, minimize your needs, or carry everything alone.

Welcome! I'm always struck by how therapy helps us unstick. It's worth it. We just weren't meant to solve all our problems alone. In our work, I'll meet you where you're at, at your pace. Together, we'll create the space where you feel safe to share, solutions can emerge, and you can know yourself better. The skills I bring help things shift over time, combining present listening with eliciting and sharing insights. And while I'll bring my own perspectives, I also welcome pushback. This is a collaborative project. I work with people 1-3x/week.

FAQ - About Telehealth Therapy
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
