Olympia, Washington therapist: Dr. Mandi Maycumber, therapist
MI

Dr. Mandi Maycumber

Therapist, PsyD, LPCC, LMHC, SUDP
If you are looking for a therapist that is discerning, solution-oriented, and individualizes their approach based on your needs... we might be a good fit! Licensed in California and Washington. In addition to being trained in Gottman levels I and II for couples work, I am a certified SYMBIS facilitator for pre-marital counseling. I have 12 years of experience working with adult individuals and couples utilizing cognitive, humanistic approaches. For 9 years I have been supervising addictions counselors, behavioral health staff, and therapists seeking independent licensure. The problems that I work with the most often are relationship conflicts, anxiety, and addictions. In a world full of problems that individuals are powerless to change, I help people work to improve their own lives based on what is within their control.

San Luis Obispo, California therapist: Liza Roth, MA, LMFT, marriage and family therapist
MI

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I am available for secure, telehealth sessions M-W. Many of my clients are working professionals who need the flexibility of online sessions. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in Bay Area tech finance for 20 years. I know firsthand the intense pressure, insane pace, and subsequent burnout of working in tech companies. Being high functioning only lasts for so long before your physical and mental health suffer, and you're left wondering why you just can't "get it together" anymore. You're not a failure... you're just EXHAUSTED. Let me help you figure out where to go from here.

Melissa Berschauer

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whether you are an expert with online meetings or are a little hesitant to start telemedicine, I promise you, online therapy with me doesn't feel like another stiff, robotic Zoom meeting. I’ve intentionally designed my virtual practice to feel just as warm, connected, and down-to-earth as sitting across from each other in a cozy office. You get the exact same focused, high-quality care and deep collaboration—just without the stress of fighting traffic, rushing to an appointment, or even having to put on real shoes. We live busy lives, and finding a block of time to take care of your mental health is hard enough. Telehealth makes it incredibly easy to fit real, impactful support right into your day, whether you're logging on from your couch, your office, in your car (while parked), or a quiet corner of your home. All you need is a comfortable spot and a secure internet connection, and we can get to work getting you unstuck, wherever you happen to be.
