My name is Leahmontaine Barrow and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I try to meet each person where they are and collaborate with them as they work to meet and manage the impact various symptoms and issues have on their relationships, work, and lives.

My name is Devin Nigh and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Oakland, California and supporting California clients via telehealth sessions. I specialize in working with adolescents, children, and young adults and use a humanistic therapy approach and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools to help clients and families make positive changes in their lives. I help young adults and youth facing issues such as Anxiety, Depression, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Trauma, and Substance Abuse

As a dedicated therapist specializing in guiding children, teens, and adults through life's challenges, I understand the significance of a supportive, stigma-free environment in the journey toward healing. My therapeutic approach draws from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, exposure therapy, solution-focused therapy, emotional-focused therapy, and Trauma Focused CBT. I deeply acknowledge intergenerational struggles, psychosocial stressors, and familial dynamics that profoundly influence mental well-being.

Do you ever feel disconnected from yourself or others? Although our country has made progress in raising mental health awareness, a great deal of stigma remains. In many communities, these issues are often shrouded by silence and shame, fostering mental health minimization. I have experience working with individuals and family relationships. I work with problems that arise in blended families, work, health, and career, trying to create better relationships and less conflict. Through role-plays, Gestalt techniques, and mindfulness, you can gain the power to reflect on your feelings, understand yourself and feel better.

Hello, I'm Taneesha! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is passionate about assisting people while on their journey toward healing and growth in the face of the challenges they may be currently experiencing and/or past traumas that may be causing distress. I have experience with ages 18-97 and have worked with clients with many different experiences and diagnoses including Anxiety, Depression, PTSD/Trauma, Substance Abuse, Bipolar Disorder, Suicidal Ideation, and more.

Welcome to my practice. I have over 30 years of experience providing therapy to individuals and couples from very diverse backgrounds with regards to ethnicity, religion, age, country of origin, and sexual orientation. The therapy I do tends to be short-term, "here-and-now" focused, goal oriented, and skills based. I believe my clients want to change their behaviors, and not just "talk" about what's going wrong. My therapeutic style is collaborative, non-judgmental, warm and compassionate. I'm not a "one size fits all" therapist because every client is unique. I offer a Good Faith Estimate at the client's request.

Hi there, I am Dr. Stephen Gutknecht! I have a rich experience covering a wide range of issues. My approach stems from both Cognitive Behavior Therapy as well as Existential theory. I believe how we communicate with ourselves, and others, changes the perspective we hold and are seen through. When people are empowered through being heard, emotionally supported, helped to develop skills they have a greater ability to lead emotionally healthy lives.

I provide personalized, culturally affirming care and attend to all identities at various intersections (BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, disability, etc). I work with clients to acknowledge their strengths, address impacts of culture and oppressive systems on mental health, and build skills rooted in their goals and values. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, life transitions, depression, grief, insomnia, and trauma. I also work with individuals adjusting to neurocognitive symptoms and family members of loved ones with dementia. Amidst life's toughest moments, finding clarity, connection, and joy is still possible.

My name is Dr. Paul Van Zeumeren, but Dr. Paul or Dr. Z. will do given the length of my last name. Although I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California, I do not work with couples and families in therapy. Rather, I use the systems approach to inform individuals how familial experiences may be affecting current relationships and outlooks. I hold a Psy. D. in clinical psychology with a specialization in Family Systems/Dynamics. I held a C.A.T.C., which is a certified addiction treatment counselor while working towards my licensure and degrees, so I am a specialist in recovery from substance use disorders.
