Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Therapy tends to focus on the wounded downside of ourselves — but just as much as we are capable of darkness and contraction, we are creatures of light and expansion. Coaching tends to emphasize these upside possibilities, these gestures towards greatness all of us feel in the core of ourselves, howsoever small they may be. When they are given voice, when they are encouraged, these gestures can become great movements of empowerment and expanded life.

Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
Life Coaching after betrayal trauma focuses on helping you move forward with clarity, strength, and intentional direction. While trauma stabilization is foundational, many clients reach a point where they are ready to rebuild - their identity, boundaries, relationships, and future vision. My coaching approach is structured, goal-oriented, and grounded in trauma-informed principles. Together, we work on self-trust, decision-making, confidence, and creating a life that aligns with your values after betrayal.
Coaching is forward-focused, empowering you to step out of survival mode and into purposeful growth.

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 exploring who we truly are and taking control of our lives so we can be the best versions of ourselves possible. Whether you are looking for support on identity concerns, what to do now that you're a "real" adult (yeah, adulting is hard!), or just someone outside your circle to talk things through with - we can create a counseling plan that fits your unique needs and goals. ~~~ Just to make it clear: BLM. Protect the dolls. FDT. Free Palestine & Sudan. F the patriarchy/capitalism. Sex + Body Positive. ~~~
I am passionate about providing a safe and welcoming space for people of all backgrounds and identities. Click that contact button and we can schedule a free consultation call today!

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.
