Santa Clara, California therapist: Suzanna Freerksen, psychiatrist
Female

Suzanna Freerksen

Psychiatrist, MD
As a psychiatrist I am comfortable with prescribing medications as well as therapy. My psychiatry practice is focused on you and how you can best achieve your goals, whether that is medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or a combination of all three. Let's work together to help you get 'unstuck'. In session we will talk about thoughts and feelings in addition to medication. I am experienced in CBT and group therapy, as well as the medical treatment of nightmares and bipolar disorder. I am also trained in EMDR and DBT, as well as ketamine assisted psychotherapy (KAP). I am knowledgeable about medicines and illness with breastfeeding, and pregnancy.

San Diego, California therapist: Laura Fleming, pre-licensed professional
Female

Laura Fleming

Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
I bring my real-life experience into my work as a therapist. I’m a mom, a military spouse, and someone who understands anxiety—including postpartum anxiety—not just clinically, but personally. I’ve spent years working with children with special needs and their families, which has deeply shaped how I view emotional health, caregiving, and resilience. I believe therapy works best when evidence-based tools are paired with compassion, emotional depth, and practicality. My goal is to help you understand the root of what you’re experiencing—not just manage surface level symptoms—so visible, lasting change can happen. I’m especially passionate about working with parents and caregivers, because when adults take care of themselves and their relationships, the impact on children is beautiful and significant. If you’re looking for therapy that feels genuine and grounded in real life, I’d love to help you.

New York City, New York therapist: Lauren Consul, marriage and family therapist
Female

Lauren Consul

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST, JD
Repeating the same argument on loop isn’t good foreplay. Neither is dodging intimacy, silently stewing in betrayal, or feeling totally lost when it comes to your sexuality. If your relationship feels more like a roommate situation, if your sex life is collecting dust, or if trust has been shattered and you're wondering, now what? You're exactly where you need to be. You don’t have to stay stuck. You can heal. You can feel turned on by your partner and by your life. Let’s get you there.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Adela Stone, marriage and family therapist
Female

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.

San Jose, California therapist: Aimen Bukhari, marriage and family therapist
Female

Aimen Bukhari

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I am a California-based anxiety therapist working with high-functioning adults who struggle with chronic anxiety, overthinking, panic, and persistent internal tension. Many of my clients appear capable and successful, yet feel emotionally exhausted and constantly on edge. They often carry responsibility, family expectations, and pressure that have kept their nervous system in a state of high alert. My approach to anxiety therapy is steady, depth-oriented, and practical. I help clients reduce panic and physical anxiety symptoms while also addressing the deeper patterns that keep anxiety going, including guilt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and long-standing family or cultural roles. This work focuses on helping you feel safer in your body, clearer in your mind, and more grounded in your daily life. I provide private pay therapy and work well with clients seeking thoughtful, consistent care rather than quick fixes.
