Michelle King Rayfield
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I know that people come to therapy because they want something in their life to change. That's why I am very conscious of how we set goals and then create a road map to achieving them. I focus on relationships & couples counseling, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and I have held roles of Clinical Director and Therapist in a number of addiction treatment centers in Southern California. My educational background includes a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and a Master’s in Education from the University of Southern California. I know it can be hard to navigate through our struggles all alone, which is why I find joy in helping others feel supported in finding happiness, success, and fulfillment in life.

Wyatt Okeefe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LPCC
I recognize being a nonconformist in any way, comes with challenges. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community I understand first hand the things we too commonly encounter. Despite the challenges, I recognize the power and beauty inherent in us all. When we fully embrace and embody our most authentic selves we find freedom from the expectations of others. Being on my own similar journey, I believe I am uniquely equipped to help you thrive while negotiating all life's many changes and challenges.

Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that change is possible, even when life feels overwhelming. As someone whose mind tends to move fast, dig deep, and resist “fitting in,” I’ve learned firsthand how isolation, frustration, and burnout can grow from being misunderstood.
In my practice, I offer a place of understanding, clarity, and transformation. I help clients map how their unique thinking, energy, and attention patterns affect relationships, work, and daily life. Together, we create strategies and habits that align with who you are—so that your strengths become the foundation for growth, not sources of struggle.
I provide this support virtually across 44 states—and I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are, and helping you move toward what’s next.

Lancaster is the largest city of the Antelope Valley, a high-desert community north of Los Angeles shaped by aerospace employment tied to Edwards Air Force Base and the region's flight-test heritage, alongside families drawn by affordability. Geographic isolation from the LA basin, extreme summer heat, and long commutes for many workers contribute to stress, and the valley has historically had fewer providers than its population needs. Antelope Valley Medical Center and regional clinics anchor care, with telehealth increasingly bridging the distance to LA's larger therapy market.
