Quinn Knox
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, Trauma-Informed
Therapy has not only changed but also saved my life. I have always been interested in psychology due to being an adoptee and growing up in a blended family of various cultures and ethnicities. My struggles with addiction and the unpredictable ebbs and flows of being in the entertainment industry was the tipping point that drove me to do some major introspection and ultimately paved the way for me to become a therapist. Seeking personal therapy helped me work through childhood and sexual trauma, depression, anxiety, impulsive behaviors, and feelings of low self-worth and my goal is support others who struggle with similar issues.
For a long time, I was desperate to work on myself so I could be “good enough” to find the right partner. However, I realized that I needed to become the person of my dreams, rather than relying on another person to complete me. My hope for my clients is to help you love yourself, and get connected with supportive communities and personal interests.

Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I provide services in Spanish + English.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist of Mesoamerica-Indigienous ancestry. My life exposed to community violence, trauma and intersecting oppressions has led me to the work of healing, self-discovery, exploration and ancestral healing.
I was raised in the SF Bay Area and I currently reside on the stolen lands of the Tongva peoples, colonially known as Los Angeles, California.
My lived experiences of being a person of color with intersecting identities, navigating the world and the trauma that comes with that, has led me to the practice of healing at a young age. I grew up with many years of witnessing (through family members + my community) severe mental illness, addiction, community violence, chronic suicidality, incarceration and domestic violence. Through my own stories and experiences, as a justice-oriented therapist, I aim to disrupt and dismantle these oppressive systems within myself and in my practice to make therapy a safe(r) space for folks who are targeted and made marginalized.

Kelda Hartman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I believe that no matter where you’ve been, what you’ve been through, or where you are currently, there is hope. I know that life can throw some crazy curve balls and I understand how painful and earth-shattering crisis can be. You may feel too weary to deal with what is happening (or you may be tired of always having to be so strong), but sometimes transformation can happen just by holding on. I would like to be the person who supports you in hanging on, even if the rope seems to be slipping through your fingers. Because I believe the future can look different than the present and the past. Things can change. So if you feel like giving up, please give me a call instead.
Like a tree, I believe that in order to change the fruit (what is currently going on in our life), we need to look at the root. You can pick every orange off an orange tree hoping it will grow apples, but unless you change the root, it will just keep growing oranges. I believe that if we can get to the “heart” (or root) of what is happening, you will see different fruit begin to develop. Because I believe that many of life’s struggles stem from wounds of the heart. I want to help wounded hearts heal. I enjoy working with people of all cultures, beliefs and backgrounds. For those who are interested in Christian Counseling, I am also trained in integrating God into that healing process.
