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.

Elizabeth Essner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The relationship between the therapist and the client is the most important factor in the "success" of therapy. Meeting online gives us the opportunity to develop a trusting relationship no matter where you live or what your preference is about how to meet. I work with both individuals and couples. Some of the issues I help with are depression, anxiety, grief, substance use, trust and communication. I am an LGBTQ+ ally, kink and poly friendly.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I offer secure, confidential online therapy for individuals and couples who prefer the flexibility of meeting remotely. Online therapy allows us to do meaningful, effective work together while reducing barriers like travel time, busy schedules, or geographic location. This can be especially important for clients seeking sex therapy, sex addiction therapy, or LGBTQ+ affirming care, which may not be readily available in more rural areas of Texas and California. I strive to create the same sense of connection, safety, and presence in online sessions as I do in person. For many clients, meeting from their own space helps them feel more comfortable and engaged, making it easier to stay consistent and focused on the work we’re doing together.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I offer online therapy for adults who want a thoughtful, grounded space to come home to themselves. My work is relational, warm, and deeply attuned—I’m interested in the stories you’ve carried, the identities that shape you, and the parts of you that are ready for more ease, expression, or alignment. Together, we slow down, get curious, and make room for the truths that have been waiting beneath the surface.

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.

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.

Tara McGrath
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help LGBTQIA+ people manage anxiety and improve their relationships and communication. Many of my clients are dealing with the after-effects of a religious upbringing. Most are professionals who are doing well in some areas of life, but struggle with things like boundaries, self-worth, and understanding their own feelings. I also love to work with people who are coming out later in life. I am queer-identified.
