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.

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.

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.

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.

Rinat Kass
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Online therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy while offering the convenience of your own private space and zero commute time. Many professionals in the Silicon Valley find this type of therapy preferable to in-person therapy. I invite you to try it out and see how it feels for you.

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.

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.
