Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I offer online therapy for adults in many seasons of life, from young adults in their 20s to older adults in their 80s, who want to improve their relationship with themselves and with others. Through telehealth, I support clients navigating a wide range of issues and major life transitions—such as new marriages, becoming a parent or grandparent, adjusting to an empty nest, retirement, or moving into community living—so they feel less alone, more grounded, and better equipped to meet these changes with clarity and care.

Celeste Tomasulo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many of my clients come to me struggling with depression or anxiety in response to trauma, an unstable childhood, or illness. Others are having difficulty setting boundaries and expressing their needs. During our initial sessions, we will explore who you are as a whole person, putting together the pieces of the puzzle that make you, you. Many of my clients have had success in exploring the root causes of their issues and decreasing the intensity of overwhelming thoughts and emotions. I have a particular interest in how attachment and events in our childhoods go on to shape how we view the world.

Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Being a therapist isn’t just a job for me. It’s a calling shaped by my own mental health journey. Working with a therapist who truly understood me was life-changing, and it’s what inspired me to do this work. I know firsthand that meaningful transformation is possible when you are given the right support and tools, and my hope is to offer that experience to each of my clients. In our work together, you won’t get someone who simply sits back and nods. I am actively engaged and can help you feel understood even when you’re struggling to put things into words. If you’re someone who has trouble opening up, I can help you let people in and share what’s going on underneath in a way that is authentic to you. I balance thoughtful listening with meaningful input, offering perspective and guidance when it’s helpful, while making sure the work supports you in becoming more fully yourself rather than fitting into a mold. If you’re looking for a therapist who feels approachable, steady, and genuinely invested in your growth, and who can help you turn insight into real, lasting change, I’d be glad to connect. I offer a free consultation so you can see if we’re a good fit.

Elizabeth Nims
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
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. I have experience in treating stress/burnout, anxiety, ruptures in interpersonal relationships, life changes (work, school, relationships), and overall helping my clients know themselves better and become aligned with their most genuine, authentic selves. I look forward to connecting with you and being part of your healing journey.

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.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
As a Northern California-based depth psychologist, I find that Telehealth can be just as effective as in-person therapy, with the added advantages of convenience and accessibility. While I appreciate working with people from all walks of life, I am especially passionate about helping people face transitions: elders, those in midlife, students, artists, thinkers, and my fellow therapists. I am also committed to helping couples to manage conflict and envision new ways of communicating and being together.
Everyone has the capacity to change, to heal their wounds, and to find ways to cope with the demands and difficulties of contemporary life.
We will collaborate to develop insight into your unique way of being and consider underlying or long-held patterns that either help or hinder you in navigating our world. From the core values of mutual regard, respectful dialogue, and humility, we will engage in a psychodynamic exploration of who you are, how you came to be where you are now, and where you dream of going.
