Esther Park
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I believe children, teens, and adults need space to be understood not only in what they say, but also in how they play, create, and experience the world around them. My approach is client-centered, collaborative, and grounded in Psychodynamic and Gestalt therapies. In simpler terms, I care about identifying root emotions and experiences as well as your unique experience in the room as we meet. My goal is to create a space where clients can feel safe enough to be their authentic selves, knowing they do not have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. I believe that building trust, safety, and good rapport takes time and continues to matter throughout the therapeutic process—not just during the first few sessions.

Marysa Garcia
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Financial Social Worker
Hi, I'm Marysa. My approach to therapy is this: you are the expert on you. Our work together will be a grounding space for self-reflection, where we uncover your inner strength to cultivate hope and forge a path forward. Therapy is your process. I will always invite you to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable, going at a pace that feels right for you. As your therapist, I will support you in understanding the way stress and trauma show up in both the mind and the body so that your healing can be something you feel in your bones.

Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe healing begins when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore your experiences with honesty, and build the confidence to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Holding Space Therapy, I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable. Whether you're living with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, burnout, grief, or the effects of chronic stress, you don't have to navigate it alone. I strive to meet each client with compassion, curiosity, and respect, recognizing that every person's story is unique.
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Together, we'll work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process difficult experiences, develop practical coping strategies, and build a stronger connection with yourself and the life you want to create.
I have extensive experience supporting adults from diverse backgrounds, including first responders and their families, healthcare professionals, LGBTQ+ individuals, and members of BIPOC and Latino communities. I am committed to providing culturally responsive, affirming care where your identity, values, and lived experiences are respected and honored.
Healing isn't about becoming someone different—it's about reconnecting with the strengths that have always been within you. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel supported, challenged when appropriate, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.

Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
In all honesty, finding a therapist you actually click with can be tough. That’s why I keep things warm, fun (yes we laugh), and completely judgment free. As your therapist, my goal is for you to have a place to just be yourself while we work through whatever is causing you stress or discomfort. I bring a mix of genuine empathy and practical, real-world tools to the table, meaning we won’t just talk about what’s going on, we’ll actively collaborate to get you unstuck.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety/depression, relationship stress (any type of relationship), a major life shift, burnout, perfectionism, confidence issues, trauma, infertility/postpartum struggles, or just want to understand yourself a bit better, I’m here to help you navigate it all.
