Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Our careers can sometimes be so intertwined with our identities that when we are no longer fulfilled by them, or find ourselves at a crossroads, it can be terrifying and disorienting. I have been through a big career change myself, and intimately know the flood of emotions that comes along with it. There is also a lot of job uncertainty with the increasing popularity of AI, and as someone who used to work in tech for 20 years, I understand how big of a threat it poses on many different levels. Let's work together to find out where you go from here.

Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I'm an open-minded and accepting therapist with years of experience working with young and middle-aged adults - especially women - on pursuing life goals and attaining the positions in our career that we dream of. Whether you are trying to balance work and home life, deciding to take things in a new direction, or wanting more out of your career, we can tailor our therapy sessions to meet your specific needs.
Assisting my clients with building insight and understanding into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is an essential part of my therapy practice, and I provide evidence-based practice tools that you can use outside of therapy as well. ~~~ Just to make it clear: BLM.

Bakersfield sits at the southern end of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its oil industry and agricultural economy — two sectors with distinct occupational cultures that affect how residents approach mental health and help-seeking. The city has a large and long-established Hispanic community, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists serve a critical access role for families where language barriers limit engagement with mainstream mental health services. Kern Medical provides institutional mental health resources alongside a relatively sparse private practice community — Bakersfield has fewer therapists per capita than comparable California cities, making telehealth an important access route. The city's conservative political culture and strong evangelical community mean faith-integrated approaches to therapy are in consistent demand.
