High-Functioning Anxiety & Overthinking
The Struggle: Your brain runs at full speed, you are constantly anticipating the next problem, and you struggle to set boundaries without feeling guilty.
Our Approach: We integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to help you disrupt anxious thought loops, manage perfectionism, and regain control over your mental space.
Burnout, Stress & Life Transitions
The Struggle: You are the one who holds everything together, but quietly, you are completely exhausted. You feel disconnected from your body and your passions.
Our Approach: Using Somatic Experiencing (SE) and nervous system regulation, we help you process stored stress, build sustainable daily boundaries, and move from survival mode back into thriving.
Teen Anxiety, Mood Changes & Self-Esteem
The Struggle: Watching your teenager withdraw, struggle with academic pressure, or navigate intense emotional waves while feeling powerless to fix it.
Our Approach: We offer a warm, collaborative space blending DBT coping skills and creative expression. We help teens build emotional resilience, self-compassion, and practical tools to navigate social and academic stress.
Relationship & Attachment Patterns
The Struggle: Repeating the same painful dynamics in your relationships, struggling with people-pleasing, or feeling unsafe when communicating your true needs.
Our Approach: We utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) frameworks to help you understand your attachment style, heal old relational wounds, and build deep, secure, and conscious connections.
Therapy that actually meets you where you are.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start. We work with teens and adults across California who are tired of just getting by— and who are ready to feel like themselves again.
You might be in the right place if…
Your brain runs at full speed even when everything looks fine on the outside.
You're the one who holds it together — for your family, your friends, your team — but quietly, you're exhausted.
You know something's off, but you can't quite name it. Or maybe you can name it perfectly and just haven't had anywhere safe to say it out loud.
You've been thinking about therapy for a while. You're not sure where to start. You're a little nervous about what you might uncover.
That's exactly where we come in.

Meet Our Team
Hi, I’m Carissa! I enjoy working with teens and young adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, family stress, emotional overwhelm, and the pressure that can come with school, college, work, and figuring out what adulthood is supposed to look like. My goal is to create a space where you can talk about what’s actually going on without worrying about being judged, dismissed, or told how you should feel.
My approach is supportive, collaborative, and practical. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, and strengths-based approaches to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and patterns. Together, we can work on managing overwhelming emotions, quieting anxious thoughts, building healthier coping skills, setting boundaries, and feeling more confident in yourself and your decisions.
Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or like someone is trying to “fix” you. Sometimes it starts with having a space that is completely yours—a place to feel understood, sort through the messy parts of life, and learn how to handle them differently. If you’re ready to understand yourself better and make meaningful changes in your life, I’d be honored to support you.
Brigetta (Shay) Alexander, ACSW #130788 Associate Clinical Social Worker
Hi, I’m Brigetta Alexander an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW #130788)passionate about supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges with compassion and empathy, cultural awareness, and a trauma-informed approach. I bring experience from a variety of clinical settings, including outpatient mental health, foster care, transitional housing, community-based programs, and corrections. I have provided services to children, teens, and adults navigating complex emotional, social, and systemic barriers.
My practice is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based care. I have supported clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and family challenges. I’ve also worked alongside those involved in the foster care and justice systems, offering therapeutic support to help them navigate complex circumstances and build toward stability and healing.
Whether helping clients work through anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, or life transitions, I understand that healing looks different for everyone, and I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered, regardless of where they are in their journey. Healing happens in relationships and in environments that foster trust and dignity.
Outside of my clinical work, I believe in the power of balance and self-care. You’ll often find me at the gym, watching movies, cheering on my favorite sports teams, or spending quality time with my family. I believe that taking care of ourselves, mind, body, and soul, is essential not just for therapists but for everyone.
Hello, my name is Kimberly Robertson (ASW #132714), and I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker, I especially enjoy working with teens and young adults navigating anxiety, stress, self-esteem, relationships, family dynamics, identity, and major life transitions. Whether you’re trying to survive high school, adjusting to college or adulthood, struggling with expectations from others, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, build confidence, and develop tools that actually feel useful in your everyday life.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I use trauma-informed and strengths-based approaches while helping clients build emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, boundaries, and stronger relationships. Therapy with me isn’t about being judged or told what you “should” do—it’s about having someone in your corner while you figure out what works for you.
I am also bilingual in English and Spanish and value creating a space where clients from different backgrounds, cultures, and family experiences feel understood and respected. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are and help you navigate what comes next, I’d be honored to support you.
