David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
I have worked since 2005 with clients with depression, stress, men's issues, and other life challenges, primarily in non-profits with marginalized and underserved communities. I see people seeking support for many difficulties, including:imposter syndrome, self-esteem, boundaries, vulnerability, excessive guilt and shame, communication skills, difficulty asking for help or saying "no," and more. Reducing self-judgment will help you to make better decisions that are aligned with your core values. This will ultimately free you from negative thoughts or worries so you are more fully available for all the important things in your life.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
About My Practice
I provide specialized online therapy for adults (18+) navigating anxiety, trauma, and complex life challenges. Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a secure virtual environment, I create a supportive space for healing and personal transformation from wherever you are. My approach focuses on getting to the root of what's creating your struggles rather than just managing surface symptoms.
My Approach
My practice centers on what I call "updating your operating system"—we explore the roots of your patterns, understand how you got where you are, and consciously choose where you want to go next. This isn't about dwelling in the past; it's about understanding yourself more deeply so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. I bring together evidence-based techniques like CBT, ACT, Coherence Therapy, and clinical hypnosis with mindfulness practices, creating sessions that are collaborative and organic rather than rigid or prescribed.
Here's what might surprise you: one of the most powerful dimensions of real change is acceptance. Not the passive, resigned kind, but the courageous turning toward where you are with care and curiosity. This approach allows you to look squarely at reality and move forward from a place of truth rather than resistance.
Areas of Specialization
I specialize in supporting clients with:
Anxiety: Managing generalized worry, social anxiety, perfectionism-driven anxiety, decision paralysis, and the anxiety that stems from unprocessed trauma
Trauma Processing: Working through childhood trauma, parentification, relational wounds, and past experiences that continue to shape how you move through the world today
Complex Family Dynamics: Navigating challenging relationships with adult children, aging parents, partners, and other family members where boundaries feel blurred
Grief and Loss: Processing loss in its many forms—of people, relationships, the life you thought you'd be living, or your sense of purpose and identity
Patterns That No Longer Serve: Breaking cycles of people-pleasing, over-functioning, perfectionism, and abandoning your own needs to care for others
Benefits of Online Therapy
My virtual practice offers several advantages:
- Access specialized trauma-informed therapy from the comfort of your own space
- Greater scheduling flexibility across multiple time zones
- Elimination of travel time and transportation barriers
- A familiar environment that may enhance feelings of safety during vulnerable work
Getting Started
I work best with people who are managing to keep their heads above water but know something needs to shift—those experiencing mild to moderate concerns rather than acute crises. I welcome clients who are curious, open to looking at their lives holistically, and interested in a partnership approach. If you're willing to do the sometimes uncomfortable work of growth and want genuine understanding rather than therapy-speak, we'll likely be a good match.
My style is warm, direct, and refreshingly real. Research shows the most important factor in successful therapy is whether you feel genuinely understood and emotionally safe with your therapist—building that authentic connection is central to how I work.
Licensed in Colorado, California, and Maryland. Specialized training in Coherence Therapy, ACT, CBT, and clinical hypnosis.

Dr. Cristal Lopez
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families. I’m committed to guiding you, your child, or family to a more connected and fulfilling life. Invest in yourself!

Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Healing happens when you feel truly safe — and creating that kind of space is something I take seriously, for both individuals and couples. I show up as an active and engaged partner, asking thoughtful questions, offering honest reflections, and keeping us anchored to what matters most to you. Together we'll gently uncover the patterns that may have once served you but are now getting in the way of the connections and life you want. My clients often leave sessions feeling not just heard, but with a greater sense of clarity and direction. With a background in Fine Arts, I bring creativity, imagination, and the occasional moment of levity as welcome parts of the healing process.

Aimen Bukhari
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
You are the one everyone relies on.
The daughter who keeps the peace. The woman who notices everyone's needs before her own. The one who looks like she has it together but lies awake replaying conversations, worries about disappointing people, and feels guilty resting.
I help South Asian and Muslim women struggling with anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, relationship stress, and family pressure.
You don't have to explain your culture, family dynamics, or faith to me. And if you've been taught that being a good Muslim means endlessly sacrificing yourself, tolerating unhealthy behavior, or carrying everything alone, therapy can help you make sense of those messages while staying connected to your values.
Virtual therapy available throughout California.

Through in-person or secure video sessions, my goal is to create a supportive, flexible space where you can improve your mental health, build coping skills, and make lasting improvements.

Judith Nitchie
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT36770
Since the advent of the Covid pandemic all sessions have been through teletherapy - either video or phone. While the initial motivator is protection of our physical health, the practice provides increased accessibility and convenience for clients. Studies (and practice) have shown that teletherapy can be equally effective as in-person therapy.

Tracey Kiernan
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
You don’t have to keep holding it all together on your own.
I offer online therapy for women and couples who look like they’re managing life well on the outside—but internally feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or not quite like themselves. Many of my clients are navigating high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, relationship struggles, and major life transitions, including perimenopause.
Virtual therapy with me is not a watered-down version of in-person work—it’s focused, effective, and designed to create real change. From the comfort of your own space, we’ll work to help you feel more grounded in your body, clearer in your mind, and more connected in your relationships.
If you’re in a relationship, online sessions can help you break out of repeating conflict cycles, better understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and rebuild connection—even if things have felt stuck for a long time.
My approach blends practical tools with deeper, insight-oriented work. We focus first on regulation—so you’re not just talking about your life, you’re actually able to shift how you experience it.
Online therapy offers flexibility, privacy, and accessibility—without sacrificing depth.
If you’re ready for support that goes beyond coping and helps you create meaningful, lasting change, I’d love to work with you.
