Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Spirituality is not something that is apart from us, but is our deepest indefinable essence. Some people are drawn to the exploration of this their whole life through, and some people are agonized by it. I have a lot of experience in this realm that can be very helpful, especially if you find yourself troubled and feeling alone in respect of your spirituality, or your religion. I have also developed a specialty in helping people emerge from cults in a healthy way; please feel free to be in touch with me if something of this kind ails you.

Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Making meaning of our human experience beyond the capitalistic and patriarchal structures that dominate our society is an essential component of my practice. While I do not ascribe to any religion, I do believe in the power of the sovereign self that we can access through the language of emotions, bodily sensations, thoughts, dreams, and more. There is no need to be practicing any type of formal spirituality to work with me, just an openness to the life force energy that can occur.

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.
