Charles B. Walker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life's journey is filled with unexpected twists and turns—stress, anxiety, depression, and moments of feeling utterly overwhelmed. Often, we find our way through these challenges on our own. Yet, there are times when the guidance of a compassionate, licensed psychotherapist can be invaluable in restoring balance and steering your life toward greater fulfillment and joy. As your therapist, I offer more than just interventions; I provide a nurturing space to listen, understand, and actively support your path to well-being.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Wondering how to balance your mood, deepen intimacy, and create more connection in your life and relationships? Many people feel disconnected from their bodies, unsure how to express their needs, or caught in patterns that limit closeness, satisfaction, and sexual confidence. Whether you are single, partnered, or moving through a breakup, you can learn to feel at home in your body again and reconnect with what genuinely turns you on and supports your emotional well-being. Research shows that a positive, satisfying sex life, solo or with a partner, can improve your confidence, mood, relationships, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. I’m here to help you become more sensually confident and live a fulfilling, successful life.
I am a Certified Sexologist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and Tibetan Tantra Practitioner. My method is practical and embodied, blending ancient wisdom with scientifically supported approaches to sexual and relational health and nervous system regulation. I work at the intersection of sex, science, and spirituality, offering grounded tools and emotional processing that are easy to apply in real life.
I see myself as a guide rather than an authority. I love to listen and support clients in building self-trust and practical skills to walk their own path. My practice is inclusive, compassionate, and body-affirming, designed to help you become more self-sufficient, sensual, and fully alive at your own pace. I work with both individuals and couples. I also provide sex education to teens and families.

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.

Mary Mallinson Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi, my name is Mary and I am a California-based licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) providing virtual therapy for adults dealing with childhood trauma, depression, and relationship challenges. I specialize in trauma therapy, including EMDR therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic therapy, to help clients process childhood trauma, attachment wounds, perfectionism and family of origin issues.
I work with women, adult children of immigrants, and individuals seeking deeper healing from past experiences that continue to impact their present. My services include both weekly online therapy and EMDR therapy intensives, which offer extended sessions for more focused, in-depth trauma processing.
My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and collaborative, helping clients move from feeling stuck or overwhelmed toward greater clarity, emotional regulation, and lasting change. All sessions are offered via telehealth for clients located in California.
