Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
While it may seem odd to work with a psychologist online sharing your deepest concerns, feeling vulnerable, and laughing/crying over a computer or phone screen, it isn't that much different than talking with your best friend except we will stay focused on you. Won't that be nice? Online therapy offers you the flexibility to work with a great psychologist while not having to carve out a couple of hours from your busy life, wasting fuel driving to/from an office, and sitting in an uncomfortable chair in the therapist's office. Online therapy with Dr. Chad brings you the freedom to engage in deeply meaningful conversations in a convenient location for you while using secure HIPAA-compliant technologies like video, phone, and text to ensure your information stays private and secure. Best yet, you can live anywhere in California to work with me while we explore your reasons for psychotherapy.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
I am a therapist who approaches this work with steadiness, depth, and respect for the complexity of being human. I bring nearly two decades of experience in the mental health and addiction field, including work in high acuity and relationally complex settings, which has shaped a grounded and thoughtful clinical presence. I am comfortable sitting with intensity, uncertainty, and contradiction, and I do not rush people toward solutions before there is understanding. My priority is creating a therapeutic space that feels emotionally safe, contained, and honest, where difficult material can be explored without fear of judgment or pressure to perform.
I do not see people as broken or deficient. I understand symptoms, patterns, and behaviors as responses that developed in context, often as ways of coping, protecting, or surviving. Over time, these responses can become limiting or painful, but they usually make sense when viewed through the lens of lived experience. Therapy, for me, is an opportunity to slow things down enough to understand what has shaped you, what feels misaligned now, and what continues to repeat despite your best efforts to change it.
My style is relational, direct, and collaborative. I value honesty over reassurance and clarity over quick fixes. I am engaged in the work and will offer reflection, perspective, and challenge when it is useful, while remaining attuned to pacing and readiness. I believe meaningful therapy requires both compassion and accountability, and that change is most sustainable when it grows from insight, agency, and choice rather than pressure or shame.
I work well with clients who are motivated to engage in foundational work and who are open to looking beneath the surface of symptoms or conflict. This does not mean you need to have answers or know exactly where to begin. It means a willingness to be curious, reflective, and honest about what is working, what is not, and what feels difficult to face alone. Therapy is not about becoming someone else. It is about reconnecting with parts of yourself that may have been silenced, protected, or lost along the way.
At its core, my work is guided by humanistic values and a belief in each person’s capacity for self understanding and meaningful choice. I do not position myself as an authority over your inner life. Instead, I see therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together to make sense of your experience and move forward in ways that feel coherent, intentional, and sustainable. I hold this work with care, seriousness, and humility, recognizing the trust it requires to invite someone into your inner world.

Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
I help clients build a deeper relationship with themselves by exploring the different “parts” within, grounded in a depth-oriented and trauma-informed approach. Together, we look beneath the surface to understand the patterns and experiences shaping anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Through curiosity, compassion, and insight, therapy becomes a space for meaningful healing—supporting greater clarity, self-trust, and more authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.
