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.

Matthew Bishop
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctorate in Behavioral Health Leadership
Online therapy makes it possible to connect from wherever you are: home, office, or on the go.

It’s a flexible option for people with busy schedules, parents at home, or anyone who prefers the comfort of their own space.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Dr. Hartston has over 25 years of experience helping adults and couples work through anxiety, burnout, obsessive-compulsive patterns, trauma, work stress, addictions and relationship stress. The people Dr. Hartston works with are used to functioning at a high level even while they’re holding a lot of distress internally. They often know what they’re doing is unsustainable, but can’t seem to stop doing it. I’m interested in helping you upgrade your quality of life by supporting your values and the ways you aspire to show up in your different roles. I help you interrupt patterns that no longer serve you.
