Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have the utmost honor and care for my clients who enlist their trust in me to walk side by side with them on this rich, vulnerable, intimate, and sometimes challenging journey toward transformation. I am passionate about helping people fully awaken in their lives, even amidst the collective trauma we are currently experiencing. In learning how to access your vast unconscious world, you will have an increase in self-awareness, developing a more intimate and authentic relationship with yourself and others. Together, with curiosity, we can examine the the roots beneath your anxiety, often discovering defenses, coping mechanisms and survival strategies that are no longer serving you. In a safe, empathetic, warm, and nonjudgmental environment, I will lovingly challenge you to look at your constructed narratives and unhealthy patterns, while exploring your conscious and unconscious beliefs you have about yourself and the world. I believe the deepest healing comes from feeling all of the feelings you were unsafe to feel when you were a child, perhaps unlocking emotion you didn't know how to express. Time and time again, I've seen this lead to less somatic symptoms, less physical and emotional suffering, a deeper sense of self-trust, and a profound sense of freedom. I've had the honor of working with clients "in the room" for 14 years, supervising associate therapists for 9 years, and teaching graduate psychology students in the LGBTQ specialization at Antioch University for 4 years. I have extensive experience and expertise working with the LGBTQ population, creatives in the entertainment industry (showrunners, writers, directors, producers, actors, network executives, etc), parents, codependency, relational issues and trauma. My approach is experiential and depth-oriented, integrating psychodynamic therapy, ISTDP, EMDR and EFT. I believe these modalities lend to a meaningful and rich therapeutic relationship, leading to fully integrated and lasting change.

Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Even with insight and past therapy, you may still feel caught in patterns that leave you depleted—overextending yourself, avoiding conflict, striving to get everything “right,” or feeling disconnected in your relationships and from your own body. At some point, coping strategies that once protected you can begin to feel constricting.
In our work together, we delve into the deeper emotional and relational roots of these patterns. I bring 18 years of direct experience into the room, helping clients cultivate greater clarity, steadiness, confidence, and self-trust so they can move through relationships with more authenticity and assertion. My approach integrates experiential and depth-oriented therapies—including psychodynamic psychotherapy, ISTDP, EMDR, Brainspotting, and EFT—to support meaningful, lasting change at both the emotional, physiological and spiritual levels.
I see this work as especially important in a society that often prizes productivity over presence and autonomy over connection. By questioning dominant cultural narratives and inherited systems of disconnection, therapy can become a space for reclaiming connection, dignity, and care—within ourselves and across differences.
It is a privilege to accompany clients into their most tender and defended places. I trust that through this process, you can cultivate deeper self-understanding, greater inner coherence, and a more grounded sense of safety and belonging—within yourself and in the relationships that matter most.

Jessie Davis
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I get it—life and relationships can be messy, confusing, and deeply personal. I work with individuals and couples navigating love, identity, and life transitions, bringing a warm, direct approach that meets you where you are. Whether in-person or virtual, our sessions are a space for insight, clarity, and a few “aha” moments along the way. I also weave in humor and real-life perspective when it feels right—because therapy shouldn’t be all serious all the time.

Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
I bring into my practice 17 years of experience working with trauma and relationships. I work with people who have been deeply wounded and hurt in relationships. They often appear in the world as unsure about their worth and value. They are not sure that they can trust and rely on others. They might panic if people pull away too quickly or not allow themselves to get close from the start. They want to trust their gut more and feel a greater sense of security in their relationships. They want to be able to extend greater compassion and kindness towards themselves. My practice is a secure base from which we could explore all of the above and more. Current/past clients and colleagues have shared that I am collaborative, curious and calming. My aim is to slow things down to the pace where you can allow what is needed for you to emerge, to notice what you're wanting and to step more confidently out into the world.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a therapist for many years and in many settings. In describing my practice to prospective clients, I like them to know that we work in three intersecting and overlapping domains-present, past and process. In the present, we focus on how you are able to care for yourself and for others, cultivate relationships with self and other in ways that are enriching and not depleting. Using the past, we can come to understand how you show up in relationships, as informed by patterns laid out in your family of origin but in the hopes that you can come to understand and then do differently if you want, rather than acting from a place of default and habit. And finally, we can use process therapies such as EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting, to help you truly process and move past your past experiences and help you to shed the weight of past trauma. I use a pragmatic and interactive style to collaborate with clients to assist them in choosing the therapeutic path that fits best for them. Therapy is about healing and I value using trusted and effective approaches to help you reach your goals in therapy in a timely way that allows you to move on from our relationship into living your life fully and completely. I offer a free, 30-minute initial consult call so we can connect and see how we might be a good fit. Email me to schedule that today!

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I started Eff Shame Therapy because I believe shame is at the root of most of what brings people to therapy — and because I think it deserves to be named directly rather than tiptoed around. We are living in a world that generates shame faster than most of us can process it, and many of us are carrying wounds from abuse, trauma, and systemic harm that have never had a real place to land and heal.
I work with adults who are ready to stop managing their pain and start actually moving through it. My approach is trauma-informed, shame-free, and genuinely collaborative — I bring some of the most effective healing tools available including EMDR, Flash Technique, and ketamine-assisted EMDR, and I meet you exactly where you are.
This work matters to me. Not as a concept but in the room, session by session, with real people who deserve more than survival.

Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
I'm from Los Angeles, where I still live, and I earned my MA in Clinical Psychology at Antioch University. Over the past five years I've worked across private practice, community mental health, and school-based settings, where I developed a real love for trauma work with teens.
My approach is holistic, with attention to the mind, body, and spirit. I see therapy as deeply collaborative, and I believe every teen is capable of healing when they're connected with support that actually fits them. That fit matters more than almost anything else, a teen who feels talked at or managed will politely wait out the hour, and not much will change.
Naturally, most teens don't arrive thrilled about talking to a stranger. Some are guarded, some are exhausted, some agreed to come mostly to get you off their back. I get it, I've been there myself. My aim is to meet your teen where they are and build a relationship steady enough that they can lean on it on the heavier days. That usually takes a few sessions, and it's normal for progress to look like very little for a while before it looks like something.
I'm trained in several modalities, including EMDR, parts work, Gestalt, CRM, and TRM. Rather than list more acronyms, I'd be glad to talk through what your teen is dealing with and answer any questions you have.
