Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I often joke with my clients that being a woman is like playing a game called 'What's Wrong With Me Today?' Between familial and societal expectations, gendered issues, beauty standards, hormone changes, systems that strip us of our rights, our patriarchal society, women against women, it's no wonder we find ourselves anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed. Therapy can be a place for you to explore what you really need in a safe, non-judgmental environment where you are welcome to show up however you want to show up.

Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
One of my favorite aspects to work with clients on is women's empowerment. I have years of experience working with young and middle-aged women in exploring who they are, who they want to be, and how to be the best versions of themselves. Whether you are struggling with concerns in social, personal, work, or every day life stressors, 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. Protect the dolls. FDT. Free Palestine & Sudan. F the patriarchy/capitalism. Sex + Body Positive. ~~~
I am passionate about providing a safe, compassionate, and welcoming space where you can be open about your concerns so we can work through them together. Click that contact button and we can schedule a free consultation call today!
11 Years Experience
Online in Bakersfield, CA California (Online Only)
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.
