Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Many people come to therapy feeling misunderstood or “othered,” even in spaces meant to support them. You may have tried therapy before and found yourself explaining your identity, culture, ambition, or creative life just to be understood. If you’ve struggled to trust that someone could truly “get it,” you’re not alone. I provide trauma-informed online therapy for founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals navigating burnout, anxiety, and chronic pressure.

Dr. Marco Fekrat
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist working with individuals and couples. My specialties include relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, sexuality and working with the LGBTQ population. My goal is to help you better balance yourself in the present, day to day, and dive deep with you to understand the root cause. Truly effective therapy, in my view, happens when we are ready to look deeply and critically at our current situation, ready to make sustainable, and practical changes.
My work is active and focused. I will actively listen while utilizing direct questioning to fully understand core beliefs. I believe therapy can be both fun and rewarding. My goals are for you to regain better control of your symptoms and achieve your highest level of functioning as quickly as possible.
We’ll work together to help you re-ignite your passions, build healthier relationships, and uncover a more authentic self. I look forward to meeting you via a free phone/video consultation about what it is you see yourself as needing and deciding together if we would be a good fit.

Tessa Sinclair
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I work with thoughtful, high-achieving adults whose lives may look successful on the outside, yet feel effortful or misaligned on the inside. Many clients come in feeling capable and inspired, but struggle with motivation, fulfillment, or sustaining balanced relationships. I offer a relational, paced approach focused on long-term, meaningful change.

San Francisco Counseling Collective
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMFT, LCSW
People come to us because they're navigating difficulties with life changes, depression, anxiety—any of a million ways that distress manifests itself in our lives. Our specialty is seeing you for the unique person that you are, and meeting you where you are in your struggle. We work with our clients to help discover what issues are causing difficulty or suffering and then to identify the strengths that people have inside of them to help address those challenges.
I see my work as walking a path with you. It’s not my job to tell you which path to take or point you to a different path. My job is to walk alongside of you and point out some of the things you're not noticing. I accompany you down your path instead of telling you where to go.
It's really common for people to think nobody sees them—nobody gets them—and that's my work. To set a safe place for you to be fully you, and to have somebody who sees you. Sees your doubts, your fears, all the things that you feel are flaws, and accepts you for all of that. I truly believe that at our core we're all trying to grow toward our truest self, and my job isn't to tell you what that true self is. It's really to just provide you a space to grow into that, and get out of your way, and support you and help you do it.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Life transitions, health challenges, losses, depression or anxiety can be overwhelming or disorienting at times, and it can be really comforting to know someone understands you and you are not alone. I provide a calm, accepting space for you to feel comfortable sharing, along with concrete tools and strategies that are rooted in science to help you make tangible changes in your life. Therapy is a collaborative process with me, and we will work together to identify your goals and track your progress. You can make it through the challenges you face, and you can feel better.

Cam Alaasam
Pre-Licensed Professional, MSW, ASW
While I work with all clients, I also recognize the value (and the struggle) of finding a therapist with shared identities. That's why I share my positionality as a queer, trans, fluid, autistic, Iraqi, disabled, and vegan individual. I hope this helps folx with historically excluded identities since I know from my own experience how nice it can be to have a therapist who shares similar experiences and identities.
I connect with my clients with genuine care and authenticity. I listen to my clients about what they are seeking from therapy, and we co-create our work together based on your needs and wishes. Some tools I can offer are somatic practices (processing emotions and experiences through the body), a wide variety of tools for regulation, and just talking through things to help you find truth, self worth, transformation, or whatever your goals may be. I have been trained through anti-oppression and decolonial positionalities. I prioritize the safety and autonomy of my clients.
I have worked with people from all backgrounds and identities. Before we begin our work together, we can schedule a short call during which you can decide if you want to explore therapy with me. I look forward to connecting with you and being a part of your self care journey.
