Elaine Quattro
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Among my areas of expertise are assisting men and women to find their true strengths, improving communication in all types of relationships (including understanding the gender differences that affect relationships), providing direction with career transitions (I have a business background as well), using the power of cognitive beliefs to help with depression and anxiety, and guiding those who turn to food for comfort to gain freedom through intuitive eating principles.
In addition to being an experienced relationship therapist, I have presented at International conferences and to general audiences speaking on the topics of Couples Counseling using Christian Principles, Understanding and Appreciating Gender Differences, Mastering Emotional Wellness, and the Healing Power of Forgiveness.
I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.

Tanya Desloover
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CADCII
If you are looking for support and guidance to resolve issues which have left you feeling powerless, or if you are just hitting a rough spot in your life, I believe that through therapeutic approaches, together we can conquer your fears to resolve issues from your past that are contributing to behavior patterns (e.g., anxiety, depression) and negative perceptions that keep you from feeling empowered. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. I am passionate about collaborating with clients so they can become empowered to become their authentic selves. As an EMDR therapist, my perspective is helping clients get past their limiting beliefs, negative thoughts and feelings about themselves.
My background of 20 years spent as therapist and Clinical Director of a southern CA program, and in private practice, treating clients with substance use disorders, has informed my practice to help others address, not only that issue, but the underlying disorders that accompany substance use (anxiety, depression, transitions). It takes courage to face your fears, and I offer a nonjudgmental, secure holding place to heal. We will work together to support you becoming empowered to courageously face your challenges.
I am primarily offering telehealth/online counseling from the comfort of your confidential home location, through a secure, confidential network platform.

Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
**Not currently accepting new clients** You've done the talk therapy thing before, but still feel like something is missing. On the outside, it looks like you have made it and people remind you of how far you have come. But then, there seems to be an emptiness inside of you—either from being overwhelmed or numbed out by your emotions. You are constantly giving 110% of yourself to your relationships, even though no one else seems to put that same effort into you. It has depleted you, exhausted you. There are things from your own past that need to be confronted, but it was always easier for you to bury yourself in others' problems. Not anymore, now it is time for a change. It is time for you to put yourself first and to align your emotions, mind, and body. It can be scary to look inwards for healing, and I can be your therapist to walk with you on this journey. My approach to therapy is emotionally-focused, attachment-based, and trauma-informed. If you are ready to put yourself first, please call or email me to set up a free 30-minute consultation.

Adrienne Clements
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT
If you are suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, or PTSD symptoms, relief is possible. I will help you learn to reduce the impact and influence of unwanted thoughts and learn to develop the capacity to observe and feel and make use of your emotional and physical experience. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), exposure therapy, mindfulness, and somatic psychotherapy to help you learn to stop fighting with your feelings and thoughts, and allow them to come and go without a struggle. This frees up energy to live a full, rich, connected life. You can overcome panic and anxiety and heal and grow after trauma.
Are you struggling with serious relationship problems? I help couples improve communication, skillfully manage conflict, heal from infidelity, and rebuild friendship, intimacy and emotional connection. I am advanced trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and an Educator for The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by John Gottman.

Clare Waismann
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, Registered Addiction Specialist (RAS), Substance Use Disorder Certified Counselor (SUDCC)
I have always been extremely interested in the science surrounding mental health. Although in my early days, I did not quite understand the depth and heartbreaks of addiction, after almost a quarter of a century of study, training, and hands-on experience, I am humbled by the realization of the multiple dimensions of this condition. Although, there is not one single or simple solution, there are a tremendous amount of useful resources and excellent results. I also learned that knowledge, professionalism, and compassion are necessary tools health care workers must possess. There is no place for stigma, judgment, or arrogance.
I strive to provide a safe space for those seeking help, where concerns are heard and evaluated, and where individual needs are carefully and respectfully examined. A place where treatment options are decided purely on patients' needs and not on preset protocols that benefit the program more than the patient. I want the patient to have a meaningful experience. One that will help them choose a healthier path.
I act with others in a way that aligns with my values. My desire to be in healthcare was never misguided, but maybe a little naïve. I have since broadened my understanding of people's needs, strengths, and difficulties. My purpose hasn't changed and I continue to strive to help people live healthier and happier lives.
