I currently have immediate openings for individuals seeking therapy services. Online therapy services are done through video. I work with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, family conflict, relationship issues, low self-esteem, shame, unresolved trauma, and feelings of being stuck or disconnected to help them discover their inner strengths, improve relationships, and cultivate self-compassion. My approach is compassionate, empathetic, and challenging so clients feel seen, heard, and understood while also raising their self-awareness to facilitate healing and growth.

I focus on supporting women navigating major life changes and stressors with compassion, warmth, and unconditional positive regard. I utilize session time to understand my clients challenges and provide them with helpful insight, alternative perspectives, as well as coping skills and tools to utilize in day to day life to aid them in regulating their emotions and increasing self trust and confidence. I enjoy getting to know my clients better and forming a trusting therapeutic alliance.

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.

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.

Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
I offer online therapy to adults, couples, and adolescents who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of what’s next. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or the emotional impact of racial injustice. In our work together, I focus on creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. It's important to me that therapy feels collaborative and that you're grounded in real life, not just in theory. My goal is to help you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and move toward a life that feels more balanced, empowered, and aligned with who you are.

Oakland has a politically engaged, social-justice-oriented community where many therapists approach their work through an anti-oppression lens, specializing in racial trauma, activist burnout, and healing within BIPOC communities. The city's proximity to San Francisco means therapists here frequently work with the compounding stresses of the Bay Area housing crisis, economic displacement, and the grief of gentrification. Oakland has strong LGBTQ+ and creative communities, with demand for affirming therapists who work at the intersection of identity, community belonging, and personal wellbeing. Highland Hospital and UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland provide institutional anchors alongside a network of independent practitioners.
