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.

Rich Painter, M.S.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Do you want a deeper sense of connection or a greater sense of purpose in life? You may be dealing with stress, fear, marriage issues, dating difficulties, confusion, life transitions, low self worth, career direction, or something else impacting your life and relationships. You might have a mistrust of men or women based on past, hurtful experiences. You are not alone. Imagine yourself living with greater peace, freedom, trust, creativity, courage, and empowering love. Getting you there is my specialty. With your life experience and my 20+ years of training and experience, we can team up to make your life and relationships more fulfilling. With my guidance, fear will be overcome, self-esteem will grow, and understanding will emerge. You can have the loving relationships you deserve, and the life purpose you desire. My clients often say they appreciate the calm demeanor and trust they feel with me. Together, we can help you craft the authentic life you were meant to live.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #114765 by the state of California and #3281 by the state of Florida. I offer professional counseling, life coaching, and spiritual direction for individuals, couples, children and families. I draw on the insights of psychological theory as well as spiritual resources for healing. I believe that by exploring unmet needs from the past, people can develop healthier relationships today. By working through painful losses and wounds, people can release unhelpful beliefs about themselves and others in order to live more fully in the present and with hope for the future. We are hurt in relationships; we are also healed in relationship, and the therapeutic relationship can be a useful resource. Areas of focus include couple, marital, and singlehood issues, family/parenting dynamics and attachment, anxiety, depression, adolescents and young adults, career coaching, abuse and trauma, spiritual growth and struggles, gender and sexuality issues, loss and grief, and pornography/addictions. I'm a certified Prepare-Enrich Counselor and offer premarital and marital couples counseling, and I'm also a certified Family Wellness Instructor. I'm a professional member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy as well as the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists. My approach integrates Attachment Theory, Family Systems, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Life Coaching, and is collaborative, supportive, non-judgmental, and tailored to fit your needs. If you are ready to take the next step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Josie Munroe, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist
Being a Highly Sensitive Person in this chaotic, fast-paced world can feel overwhelming. In a desperate attempt to hold it all together, you may be quietly losing touch with yourself. Maybe food, exercise, or body image have become a source of struggle, or perfectionism and self-doubt are keeping you stuck. Perhaps there's an inner critic constantly telling you that you’re too much, or somehow not enough. You’re tired of feeling like you have to control, fix, or change yourself just to feel okay. Therapy can help you find a different way: one that makes room for your sensitivity instead of treating it like a problem.
