Jamie Fortin
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
I believe that meaningful change happens in the context of a genuine, attuned relationship. Therapy is not about fixing what is “wrong,” but about deepening understanding, expanding awareness, and creating space for something new to emerge.
My approach is grounded in depth psychology, relational therapy, and experiential work. Together, we explore not only the challenges that bring you in, but also the underlying patterns, emotions, and unconscious dynamics that shape your life. I work collaboratively, with curiosity and respect, to help you develop a stronger connection to yourself and to others.
I also integrate Animal-Assisted Therapy when appropriate, partnering with my therapy dog, Sophie. Her presence can help create a calming, supportive environment and often allows for connection and insight in ways that feel more natural and less pressured.
I have a particular interest in working with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, and the desire for deeper self-understanding. Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply sensing that something in your life wants to shift, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and intention.
Beginning therapy can feel like a big step. My role is to meet you where you are, offering a steady, compassionate presence as we make sense of your experience together.

Stephanie Morfitt, LCSW More Fit Mental Health
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life is hard to navigate. If communicating with others is difficult, if you constantly feel nervous, are grieving, or having family and relationship problems, I am here for you.
I have a passion for working with women weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or overwhelm. You may struggle finding balance in your life, feeling at peace with who you are, or expressing your needs in relationships.
Do you feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, or avoiding difficult emotions? I will help you develop a personalized set of tools to ease the emotional distress that weighs you down, more importantly, you will feel confident, capable, & secure in your relationships & daily life.
I BELIEVE:
We all carry contradictions. It’s okay to have mixed feelings— life is complex.
Relationships are worth nurturing. With the right tools, we can communicate with more kindness and hear each other with more love.
You deserve the freedom to make your own choices—and to honor what’s right for you.
Bringing a balance of heart and humor to the therapy space helps clients find healing, resilience, and joy—one small moment at a time.
Call me for a free 20-minute consultation to see what it’s like to work together. During our call, you’ll get a genuine feel for my therapy style, ask questions about the process, and explore what real progress could look like for you. Whether you’re new to therapy or looking for a different approach, this is a warm, no-pressure space to connect and find out if we’re the right fit.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a practicing psychotherapist in the San Francisco bay area since 1998. I am very experienced in helping adults navigate OCD, anxiety, job stress, burnout, trauma, addictive behaviors and relationship distress. I combine thoughtful depth work with practical tools for a scientifically informed, skillful, intelligent approach. I use effective tools such as EMDR, exposure and response prevention (E&RP), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and emotion focused therapy for couples (EFT) to support you through the difficulties you are navigating. Collaborating with an experienced psychologist can be a game changer. It can dramatically reduce suffering, create clarity and build a tool box specifically tailored to help you thrive through any challenge. My professional expertise is enhanced by my personal experience as a working mother, advocate for neurodiverse children, and long term relationship partner of 20+ years.

As someone who personally understands what it is like to walk through life "masking" and making accommodations to thrive in today's society, I am passionate about helping other adults better understand themselves and find a path that works for them.
