Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
At a personal level, I value substance over presentation, meaningful connection over polished appearances, and honesty delivered with care. I am curious about people, loyal in my relationships, and rarely interested in the easy or rehearsed answer. I appreciate intelligence, humor, directness, and the kind of conversation that makes time disappear.
My life has made me attentive to what people carry quietly and to the distance that can exist between how a life appears and how it actually feels. I believe in accountability without shame, depth without intensity for its own sake, and care that respects autonomy. I have a deep respect for the courage it takes to question what we have inherited, live with greater intention, and build something honest from the experiences that have changed us.
I am committed to showing up thoughtfully and consistently, honoring the responsibility that comes with being invited into someone’s inner life. This work matters to me because it offers the possibility of greater clarity, connection, and integrity, both within ourselves and in how we relate to others. I believe there is something quietly powerful about understanding yourself well enough to make choices rooted in truth rather than fear, expectation, or approval.

Lisa Abdilova Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Getting sick of what's bothering you? Are your thoughts feeling tough to control? Been challenging to unwind, enjoy yourself, or get a good night's sleep? Feeling emotionally lonely, frustrated with family, or disappointed with your friends?
You may be successful professionally and still experience dips in your self-esteem, mood, and energy. Imposter syndrome goes hand in hand with perfectionism, procrastination, and productivity. The irony is you may be working harder than most people around you, and yet feel worse about yourself than they do.
You don't have to keep living like this. Therapy can help you understand how your mind works and optimize accordingly. For example, you can catch self-defeating negative thoughts and reframe them to be more helpful for you through CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).
You have the right to feel better too.

Michelle King Rayfield
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I know that people come to therapy because they want something in their life to change. That's why I am very conscious of how we set goals and then create a road map to achieving them. I focus on relationships & couples counseling, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and I have held roles of Clinical Director and Therapist in a number of addiction treatment centers in Southern California. My educational background includes a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and a Master’s in Education from the University of Southern California. I know it can be hard to navigate through our struggles all alone, which is why I find joy in helping others feel supported in finding happiness, success, and fulfillment in life.

Celeste Tomasulo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I offer trauma-informed virtual therapy intensives for adults who need more flexibility, depth, or support than traditional weekly therapy can provide. Intensives give us dedicated time to move beyond surface-level coping and work more deeply with trauma, emotional patterns, relationship wounds, or experiences that feel stuck. You’ll leave with greater understanding of your patterns, practical tools for regulation, and a clearer path forward.
Intensives are designed around your needs and capacity, with accommodations for chronic illness, fluctuating energy, sensory needs, and other factors that can make conventional therapy difficult. My approach integrates somatic, trauma-focused, and parts-based therapies, with the flexibility to take breaks, move, change positions, or adjust the pace as needed—all from the comfort of your own environment.
