Romina Schnelle
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you've been carrying the weight of difficult experiences for a long time. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. As an EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist, I take an individualized approach to treatment because healing is not one-size-fits-all. Together, we'll identify your goals, build on your strengths, and determine the treatment approach that best fits your needs and readiness.
I also believe that emotional well-being is connected to the whole person. In addition to exploring thoughts, emotions, and past experiences, I consider factors such as stress, sleep, physical health, and lifestyle that may influence mental health. Whether you're processing painful experiences or navigating a difficult chapter in life, my hope is to help you feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your ability to cope, and better equipped to move forward.

Lisa Abdilova Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Getting sick of what's bothering you? Are your thoughts feeling tough to control? Been challenging to unwind, enjoy yourself, or get a good night's sleep? Feeling emotionally lonely, frustrated with family, or disappointed with your friends?
You may be successful professionally and still experience dips in your self-esteem, mood, and energy. Imposter syndrome goes hand in hand with perfectionism, procrastination, and productivity. The irony is you may be working harder than most people around you, and yet feel worse about yourself than they do.
You don't have to keep living like this. Therapy can help you understand how your mind works and optimize accordingly. For example, you can catch self-defeating negative thoughts and reframe them to be more helpful for you through CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).
You have the right to feel better too.

San Mateo is a Bay Area city on the Peninsula between San Francisco and Silicon Valley, part of one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world, and home to a large proportion of technology industry workers whose work-related stressors—alongside the intense financial pressure of Peninsula housing costs—shape much of the local mental health demand. The city has a significant East and Southeast Asian population, including large Filipino and Chinese-American communities, for whom culturally competent therapy that addresses specific cultural dynamics around family, stigma, and identity is an important consideration. A well-developed private therapy sector serves the affluent professional community, and telehealth has extended the effective therapy market across the Bay Area. Common therapy concerns include tech industry burnout, housing cost anxiety and financial stress, Asian-American identity and family dynamics, relationship difficulties, and the paradox of acute psychological distress in an objectively privileged material environment.
