Dr. Julie Rashkis
Psychologist, Psy.D., MSCP
As a clinical psychologist and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, I’m passionate about helping people feel seen and supported during midlife—a time of both challenge and transformation. Over the past 20 years, I’ve worked with individuals and couples facing changes in mood, identity, health, and relationships. My approach integrates evidence-based psychological care with the latest research in perimenopause and menopause, helping clients make sense of what’s happening in their minds and bodies. My goal is to create a space where midlife becomes not just something to manage—but a stage of renewal, clarity, and growth.

Olajumoke Adeyemi
Therapist, Nurse Psychotherapist APRN PMHNP-BC
Therapy with me is a collaborative, down-to-earth, and supportive experience. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself—messy thoughts, complex feelings, and all.
In our sessions, you can expect:
A calm and grounded environment where you can speak freely and feel emotionally safe.
Thoughtful conversations that explore your concerns, patterns, relationships, and goals.
Gentle challenges to help you reflect and grow, while always honoring your pace.
Practical tools and insights—whether it's managing anxiety, improving relationships, or building confidence.
A flexible approach—some days we process deep emotions, other days we focus on coping strategies or medication support (if applicable).
We may laugh, sit in silence, cry, or celebrate small wins. Every session is tailored to where you are that day—because this is your space, and your healing.

Adela Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I’m a couples therapist working online across California and Oregon. Many couples come to me feeling stuck, unseen, or like they’re speaking different languages. Sometimes there’s neurodivergence (ADHD, autism), past trauma, or years of miscommunication that usual advice doesn’t touch. My style is direct, compassionate, and real—I bring humor, honesty, and respect into sessions while helping you uncover the patterns beneath conflict. I specialize in helping partners reconnect, improve intimacy, and rebuild trust. You don’t have to be perfect or throw away your life together to reclaim closeness and resilience. If you’re ready to move past surface fixes and find a deeper way forward, I’d love to support you in creating a relationship that feels like “us” again.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Beginning March of 2025 I will exclusively be providing online therapy (tele-health) using video technology. Over the past 30 years I have specialized in helping marginalized people heal, evolve, and find their tribe. I’ve spent deep and significant time with: LGBTQIA+, polyamory, sexual kink and sex therapy, and existential depth therapy. I am solution focused, very practical and direct, while also providing deep empathy and understanding. I prefer massive behavior change and strategies over digging into our deep, dark, past issues — we can always figure out the reason for our struggles later.
