KIM RICHARDSON LINDLEY
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, I CADC II
Therapy can be a leap of faith, a hopeful search for relief from uncomfortable or unmanageable states, or a reach for deeper insight and meaning. Whether temporary, or longer term those first steps can at times be the most tentative, however quite rewarding once taken. My foundational training in the Psychodynamic, Depth and Humanistic traditions merged with innovative and evidence based advancements in attachment theory, neuroscience and the body’s stress response, have led me to a strengths based, integrative and client centered approach whereby each treatment plan is tailored appropriately to the unique needs of each client. With experience in Residential Inpatient, Intensive Outpatient and private practice, I view my work as a collaboration with the client that honors the person and their process working towards healthy relationships – with Self, others and their environment. My style has been described as calm, insightful and reflective. Areas of focus include EMDR, which has been deeply rewarding work for clients seeking support with trauma and addiction, and neuroscience based strategies aimed at regulating the nervous system to deal with the presence of anxiety and depression. I work in telehealth with teens and adults, and have experience with the unique challenges faced by clients who work in the motion picture industry.

As a holistic spiritual therapist, my practice is dedicated to embracing the transformative power of grief and the journey toward self-discovery. With a background as a certified astrologer and a passion for the subtle realms of existence, I specialize in supporting those navigating significant life transitions, personal awakenings, and the challenges of deep sensitivity. My approach is deeply attuned to the cycles of death, rebirth, and transformation, reflecting my belief in the healing potential of nature and energy medicine. If you're seeking a path that honors your unique story and explores the depths of your being in a soulful, spiritual manner, I invite you to connect and co-create a space for profound healing and self-reclamation.

Tanya Samuelian
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Therapy for Anxious Overthinkers, Perfectionists & Couples
You’re outwardly capable, but inwardly stretched thin. Maybe you’re always overthinking, saying yes when you want to say no, or feeling pressure to “hold it together” even when you’re struggling. I work with adults and couples who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, or relationship conflict—and want more than just coping skills.
Therapy can help you feel emotionally safe again—in your mind, in your body, and in your relationships. Let’s work together to reconnect you to yourself.

Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I help individual adults cope with difficult family members. Whether problems stem from addiction, mental illness, neuodivergence, developmental delays, dementia, personality disorders, or control issues, you probably find yourself feeling resentful, exhausted, frustrated, overwhelmed, worried, sad, and stuck. I know what this is like. Mental illness and addiction run in my family, so I’ve had to learn how set amazing boundaries, prioritize self-care, take action when I have the ability to do so, and let go when things are not in my control (which may be the hardest part). For the past 20+ years, it’s been my honor and pleasure to share everything I’ve learned with my own clients, helping them create more space for themselves, find more joy and ease, and step back from the fear, guilt, and obligation (FOG) to find more clariety and peace.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Meeting online allows you to choose the safest and most comforting environment to you, and, the time when your brain and body are most available for deeper, emotional work. I'll get to know your space, your language, and your stories, and together we'll grow to use your choice of environment and tools as resources for our therapeutic work. While I can't welcome you into an office with a handshake, we're able to meet from our independent spaces with eye contact and genuine expressions of connection. We're still able to effectively use an integrative approach using body-oriented and cognitive techniques in therapy, including: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Dynamic Attachment Re-patterning Experience (DARe), an attachment-based approach to Somatic Experiencing. I am participating in the three-year Somatic Experiencing training program as well to continue refining skills of working with chronic pain and illness as a consequence to long stored fear responses in the body.

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.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Therapy with me is active, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices—we are doing real work together, not just talking about your week. Each session is intentional and engaging, focused on creating meaningful insight and change you can feel in your daily life.
I see myself as a warm, intuitive, and deeply attentive therapist who believes that meaningful change happens when people feel truly safe, accepted, and understood. My goal is to offer a nonjudgmental space where you can exhale—where you don’t have to have the right words, the right story, or the right reason to be there. Therapy with me is about feeling heard, finding clarity where things have felt confusing or stuck, and reconnecting with yourself in a way that feels real and sustainable.
I am deeply passionate about relationships, emotional honesty, self-acceptance, and the quiet, often unseen struggles people carry. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why they’re unhappy when, on the surface, life looks “fine.” I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, co-dependency, shame, guilt, and the lasting impact of past experiences or trauma. I also help people talk about things that are hard to name—topics that may feel embarrassing, stigmatized, or kept private for a long time.
I especially enjoy working with people who are curious about themselves and open to growth, even if they feel nervous or unsure at first. You don’t need to be “creative” or insightful to start—just willing to show up. Together, we gently explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, and look for more flexible, compassionate ways of relating to yourself and the people you care about. Therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time; there can be space for curiosity, reflection, and even moments of lightness along the way.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, offered with warmth and humanity. While we honor your past, our work focuses on what’s happening now—and on helping you feel more present, more grounded, and more aligned with your values. I strive to help clients move through life with greater awareness, emotional balance, and self-trust, while reducing the anxiety, sadness, or self-criticism that may be getting in the way.
I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional difficulties, and mindfulness-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills. In simple terms, this means we work together to notice patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—and gently shift what’s no longer serving you. These approaches are practical, supportive, and designed to help you feel better, not just understand why you feel the way you do.
At its heart, therapy with me is about building a genuine, supportive relationship—one that helps you feel more like yourself, more connected to others, and more confident in how you move through your life.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many couples struggle when conflict keeps repeating or one partner feels unseen, and distance grows even when both care deeply. In online sessions, I help partners slow down these patterns, recognize what’s happening beneath the surface, and build the skills to stay emotionally connected. Through attachment‑based and trauma‑informed practices, I guide couples toward communication that is safe, honest, and repair-focused, even when stress or past wounds are present. Online therapy can be a convenient, contained space to explore challenges together without the distractions of daily life.

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.

Riverside is home to UC Riverside and is the economic and cultural hub of the Inland Empire — a vast suburban region east of Los Angeles where high housing costs, long commutes, and economic pressures create distinct mental health challenges for a predominantly working- and middle-class population. The city has a significant Latino and Black population, and bilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve important access roles in communities where language and cultural fit are barriers to mainstream mental health services. Riverside University Health System provides institutional mental health resources for one of California's largest and fastest-growing counties. UC Riverside's psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community, though the Inland Empire as a whole remains underserved relative to coastal California metros.
