Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
“I would rather be whole than good.” – Carl Jung
If you’re ready to move beyond performing, pleasing, or simply surviving and step into a more whole, honest version of yourself, I’d be honored to work with you. My approach blends psychodynamic depth, relational therapy, Gestalt awareness, and certified sex therapy to support meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in working with Black and POC adults and couples who want deeper connection, authenticity, and fulfillment. When you’re ready to choose wholeness, I invite you to reach out.

Thea Integrative Therapy: Celine R. Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT #155675
I am passionate about creating safety for LGBTQ and neurodivergent (ADHD/ASD) clients to take up energetic space and express their inner world. I strive to cultivate a therapeutic environment that is highly relational, playful, expressive, deep, and integrates numerous evidence based modalities to support your personal growth. With me, you can shed the various masks you use to get through each day, and experience the relief that is expressing your thoughts, feelings, challenges, and emotions while affirmed in a supportive environment.
Therapy with me will feel expansive, creative, and non-judgmental. Let’s connect you with your path in life, and celebrate your uniqueness. You deserve to align with your authentic self and live joyfully. Let's get you back on track, so you can move on from survival mode and into a truly fulfilling life.

Inessa Freylekhman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You may be someone who holds everything together on the outside while feeling anxious, disconnected, or hard on yourself within. Perhaps you keep finding yourself in painful relationship patterns, or sense that something needs to change but aren’t sure where to begin. I offer a warm, thoughtful space where you can feel understood and explore what lies beneath these struggles. Through an integrative, IFS-informed approach, I help you develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself, understand old patterns, and move toward greater clarity, connection, and self-trust. I welcome you to reach out and explore whether we’re a good fit.
