I offer warm, direct, collaborative, and evidence-based depth psychotherapy for simple and complex/developmental trauma. I work from a bio-psycho-social-spiritual lens, addressing all of these elements in understanding and treating difficult symptoms. I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and psychedelic preparation and integration services. I welcome clients from all walks of life but focus mostly on the LGBTQ+ community.

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.

KT Glusac
Counselor/Therapist, AMFT, APCC
I regard psychotherapy as a sacred practice, a place of ongoing devotion. Each session becomes a ritual space where creativity, playfulness, and curiosity are welcomed in the exploration of the psyche. By staying present and returning again and again to openness, the unknown can be transformed into meaning. This process often carries us into the work of intergenerational healing, allowing energy to return as we reconnect with our roots and uncover our truest selves.
In my work with couples, I bring the same relational lens that shapes my individual sessions. A relationship already exists in the room, and I enter into that field with care, gradually weaving myself into its trust. Relational therapy, for me, means working with what is alive in the “here and now,” while also tracing those patterns back to their origins in the “there and then.” Humor and warmth remain vital companions in this work, helping clients stay resourced as we navigate difficult terrain together.
My path as a therapist has been shaped by a commitment to both social and spiritual liberation. My training in Integral Counseling Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies grounded me in depth psychology, while my years in community mental health equipped me with cultural humility, liberation psychology, and healing justice frameworks. Earlier work as a birth worker continues to inform my perspective, reminding me that therapy often mirrors the process of bringing something new into being.
I believe every person deserves to rediscover belonging — within themselves, within their bodies, and within the larger web of community and world. In our sessions, you will be supported in recovering what has been lost and discovering what longs to emerge. Our work will unfold at the pace of safety and trust, always guided by trauma-informed care. When you are ready, I will invite you into deeper attunement with your body and its messages, so you may listen more fully to its wisdom. It is my honor to accompany clients in this healing journey.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
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.

Samantha Schaefer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like life hasn’t turned out the way you thought it would? Maybe you’re in the middle of a big transition—becoming a parent, navigating a breakup, adjusting to a new role, or simply realizing that what used to work…doesn’t anymore. Change can stir up anxiety, self-doubt, and even grief for the versions of ourselves we’ve outgrown. You might find yourself questioning who you are or what comes next. These moments can feel isolating, but they’re also an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin again—with support along the way.
