Janice Shapiro
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My specialties are in the areas of marriage counseling, pet loss and bereavement and healing intense symptoms of stress, anxiety and sadness. I tend to believe and use the following theories on how people make the changes they want: Cognitive behavioral Therapy, Inherited Family Trauma, Internal Family Systems and Psychodynamic therapy as well as warm acceptance for each of my clients from their therapist. I have lots of tools that meet each client's individual needs.

Josie Valderrama
Psychologist, PsyD
My approach is eclectic, inclusive and multi-modal--reflecting the complexity and paradox within each of us. I specialize at the intersection of gender, sexual and relational diversity + ethnic diversity + neurodiversity. Respectful of clients' spiritual grounding and cultural identity. Geared towards achieving greater balance, peace of mind and effectiveness in life. As a creative writer, I am seasoned in working with fellow creatives to support their generativity and self-acceptance. Often, my work is with alt high achievers addressing everyday anxieties as well as broader existential issues. Prior sojourns in Dotcom era tech, journalism and the entertainment industry inform my real-world perspective. Well-traveled, bohemian, intellectual and transpersonal within the therapeutic milieu, I collaborate with clients in both practical and transcendent processes.

Sean Sprigle
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Before I was a therapist I was a client just like yourself. I struggled with many issues over the years and overcome most of them since becoming a therapist. Because of this I find that I usually have personal experience with at least an aspect of what my client is dealing with. My clients generally find me to be compassionate, knowledgeable, non-judge mental, and easy to connect with.
