Theo Kuczek
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
In order for therapy to be effective, you need to trust and like your therapist. My style leans toward being both compassionate and direct. I like to educate my clients on the process of healing and personal growth to empower them to make the changes they want in their lives. Whether you're looking to alleviate your symptoms of anxiety or depression, looking for a new perspective on things, or desiring more confidence, my style adapts to accommodate your unique situation. I think it’s important to not only help clients alleviate symptoms and fix problems, but also cultivate enthusiasm for the self-reflection process and inspire their personal growth.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Are you having difficulty recognizing yourself lately? Do you lie awake even when you're exhausted, dread dates on the calendar no one else notices, or rehearse how to seem okay before you walk into a room? Are you trying to be everything for everyone while always putting yourself last? You don't have to keep faking it or struggling through it alone. These experiences that deserve real care. I specialize in reproductive mental health to support adults through infertility and the ache of trying to conceive, pregnancy loss, the upheaval of pregnancy and postpartum, PMDD, perimenopause, OCD and intrusive thoughts, and life with chronic pain or illness. The version of you that feels at home in your own life isn't gone. Let's go find it together.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
“I would rather be whole than good.” – Carl Jung
If you’re ready to move beyond performing, pleasing, or simply surviving and step into a more whole, honest version of yourself, I’d be honored to work with you. My approach blends psychodynamic depth, relational therapy, Gestalt awareness, and certified sex therapy to support meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in working with Black and POC adults and couples who want deeper connection, authenticity, and fulfillment. When you’re ready to choose wholeness, I invite you to reach out.

Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I'm a Humanistic psychotherapist seeing individuals both in-person in Mill Valley, CA, and online for people anywhere in California. My approach encourages people to meet each moment with their full capacity. In session, work includes bolstering emotional regulation, practicing awareness of mind and body, and getting curious with what may be possible. I love to work with people who are creative, motivated, and independent.

Donna M Torbico - HEAL & GROW for ACoAs
Counselor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 40 years
FREE INTRO Session - to see if we're a good fit. My main focus is working with ACAs - adults who were raised in an alcoholic / narcissistic family. The long-term goal is to uncover your True Self, develop a Loving Parent voice, heal the Wounded Child, & encourage the Healthy Child to shine.
Together we identify the harsh beliefs you absorbed from your family, school & religion, and work on transforming them into positive do-able ‘rules’ to live by.
EXP: “I know what I know”, “I have a right to my needs”, “”There’s no such thing as perfect”…..
I also provide a safe place for you to experience painful or joyful emotions you weren't allowed to feel growing up. ACA Recovery work is about facing the reality of early damage, and working to overcome the after-effects.
“Trying to flourish in an atmosphere of criticism is like trying to get sober in a bar.”

Gwendolyn Evans, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
My life mission is to create Inner Peace, one person at a time, one couple at a time. Are you anxious or depressed? Struggling with emotional or physical infidelity? Feeling lonely, overwhelmed or undervalued in your life and relationships? Are you struggling with racial or cross-cultural issues? I've worked with all of these issues and experienced many of them myself, as a mixed-race person: African-American/Irish-Apache. There are ways to make peace with yourself while walking through our world of challenges.

Juliana Sloane
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Are you feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed, and your normal tools aren't working? Maybe you're ready to make a big change - a different way forward in your relationship, a leap into a new career, or a demanding medical journey like IVF - but it feels like something is standing in the way. If you've never tried hypnotherapy, now may be the exact right time for you. Hypnosis helps you go beyond the conscious mind so you can heal more deeply, gain clarity, and even develop new neural pathways that support you to make the change you want most.
I offer hypnotherapy and coaching for sensitive, thoughtful people who are often seekers at heart. Together, we can find a path through some of life’s hardest moments: anxiety and trauma, medical procedures and chronic illness, relationship challenges, infertility, career transitions and more. (And yes, believe it or not, hypnosis is actually amazing over Zoom!). I offer clients a complimentary 30 minute consult call to see if hypnotherapy is right for you. I'd love to hear from you!
