In our work together, my intention is to help you break away from the maladaptive thought patterns, emotions, actions, and external circumstances that keep you stuck in an unwanted experience.

Hello,
I am Dr. Krysti. Navigating the demands of a successful career in the healthcare industry can often lead to feelings of burnout, emptiness, and a lack of balance in life. You may find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or difficulties in maintaining personal relationships despite your professional achievements. It's common to feel isolated and uncertain about seeking help, especially if you've never engaged in therapy or coaching.
As a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience and over 3,000 sessions, I specialize in supporting professionals like you- doctors, nurses, business owners.

Hello, I'm Michael F. Stample, PhD, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I work extensively with individual adults, couples and families. My primary expertise is in mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, dual diagnosis, LGBTQ+ and transgender healthcare. I mostly work with adults over age 17 or 18, through the later years. While psychiatric diagnoses have their uses, I prefer to see my clients as dealing with "problems of living." I work comfortably with psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral and other evidence-based therapies. My early training included internship at the Jung Institute of Los Angeles.

Hello, my name is Dara Presley, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist living in Northern California, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. I use telehealth to work with California clients ranging in age from adolescents and young adults to 85 years old. I utilize Psychodynamic approaches, Attachment theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I take from several other types of therapy as needed to help clients. I do find it helpful for clients to understand how they got to be the way they are, take an honest look at who they are today, then decide what, if anything, they want to change moving forward.

Life can be challenging, but you are not alone. You already made the first step, and I am here to guide you through the rest. One way is to separate myself from the societal restrictions, starting with my availability. The average person works M-F 8-5; but all of the resources one needs are also only available during those hours. Not everyone has the freedom to work around such restrictions. I decided I would not make it more difficult to get help. I offer early mornings, later evenings and some weekends too. Together, we can align ourselves and schedules around those traditional restrictions.

I hope I get to meet with you soon to help you best meet your goals.
