Union City, California therapist: Elena Duong, psychologist
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Elena Duong

Psychologist, Psy.D.
You might be here because you’ve been called “too sensitive,” feel easily overwhelmed, or aren’t sure where you fit—especially as someone who is queer and/or asexual. You’re seeking connection with people who “get it” and a therapist who doesn’t need you to explain your culture, sensitivity, or identity just to be understood. As a Highly Sensitive therapist, I enjoy working with asexual, gray‑ace, demisexual, questioning folks, and sensitive introverts. My style is warm, collaborative, and validating. In our work, we’ll create a gentler space, where your boundaries are honored, your quirks are welcomed, and you’re treated as enough exactly as you are.

Nashville, Tennessee therapist: ScienceWorks Behavioral Healthcare, psychologist
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

ScienceWorks Behavioral Healthcare

Psychologist, PhD, HSP, PSYPACT+California
At ScienceWorks Behavioral Healthcare, we specialize in evidence-based therapy and psychological assessment for complex, co-occurring mental health conditions, with a focus on ADHD, autism, OCD, trauma, insomnia, and chronic illness. Our psychologist-led team understands that many clients come to us after years of feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or stuck in treatments that didn’t quite fit. We take a neuroaffirming, science-informed approach, recognizing that your brain, identity, and lived experience all matter. Rather than applying one-size-fits-all therapy, we work collaboratively to understand your unique “neurotype” and build a personalized plan that supports real, sustainable change. Our services are designed for individuals whose challenges are often interconnected—because conditions like ADHD, autism, trauma, and OCD rarely occur in isolation. Through comprehensive assessments, specialized therapies (ERP, ACT, CBT, EMDR, CBT-I), and executive function coaching, we help you gain clarity, reduce distress, and build practical skills for everyday life. ScienceWorks offers secure telehealth services across California and PSYPACT-participating states, making expert care more accessible wherever you are. We also coordinate with prescribers and other providers when needed, creating a more integrated and effective treatment experience. Our practice was founded by Dr. Kiesa Kelly, a clinical psychologist and former professor, whose work is grounded in both research and lived experience. This perspective shapes our commitment to providing care that is not only evidence-based, but also compassionate, affirming, and deeply human. If you’re looking for therapy that truly understands complexity—and helps you move toward clarity, confidence, and meaningful change—we’re here to help.

Orinda, California therapist: John Jakubowski, marriage and family therapist
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

John Jakubowski

Marriage and Family Therapist, MACP LPCC LMFT
I can make this very easy for you - unless you’re looking for a specific technique the only way to tell if your therapist is a good fit is by being in a relationship with them. This can be virtual or in person, but we’ve known for a long time that the primary determining factor in successful therapy is the alliance. While a resume and creds may be a starting point, I think you’ll find it’s rarely a deciding factor. - For therapy to "work" you have to be vulnerable. To be vulnerable you need to feel safe. To feel safe you need to trust. This is the first layer of a deep, intimate, successful relationship that I model. Some people have never experienced this before - the idea that you can be heard, truly and deeply and not be judged, blamed or put in a box. Walk with me - you're not alone in this.

Oakland, California therapist: Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy, psychologist
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist in CA & NY
Hi there! I believe therapy doesn’t have to last forever. People often seek support during pivotal moments in life when challenges feel overwhelming, and they’re ready for change. My goal is to help you develop the skills and confidence to become your own therapist, equipping you to navigate life’s ups and downs long after our work together ends. To achieve this, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), and Schema Therapy.

You can’t pinpoint when it happened, but all of a sudden you don’t feel the same. You’re waking up feeling discontent and struggling to get out of bed. Sometimes, you find yourself wondering what you’re doing with yourself… You don’t feel fulfilled at all. You think you should feel great – You have the job, the friends, likes and follows from your connections… yet you still feel alone. Your inner voice is telling you something is missing. You know something is off… but you don’t want to stay this way. You’re ready to make changes in your life. You want to feel refreshed, energized, healthy, and ready to tackle the day. You want more out of friendships, coupledom, parenthood, work, and life. You want to be back on track – like you again, but an expanded version. You want the fire back! I’m here to help you with online consultation scheduling and services designed with you in mind. My clients appreciate my straightforward, no-jargon, real-world approach. If you are ready to feel better and get back on track, then let’s get to work. Schedule an appointment today, right now—no more waiting.

Pasadena, California therapist: Chloe Lankshear, marriage and family therapist
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Chloe Lankshear

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
If you think you're ready to make some changes in your life, then I'm your person! If you've been struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, setting boundaries and/or relationship issues and you've been trying hard, but what you've been doing hasn't worked as well as you'd hoped, then we could be a good match. I'm originally from London, (one of the most diverse cities in the world). I'm half British and half French and I've also lived in Florida, California and now live in Costa Rica. As you can probably tell, I'm interested in different cultures, backgrounds and worldviews and how they can influence how we think and how we navigate our lives. I also have an appreciation and an understanding of the challenges involved in being an immigrant/the emotional upheaval of moving location. If all of this feels like a good fit, reach out for a consultation!
