Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My experience with the LGBTQ+ community stems from working over a long period with clients and in personal relationships as a straight ally. Discrimination, rejection, implicit and pervasive bias, legal challenges and the long-term impact of never "belonging" are all just some of the detrimental impacts of simply being. My work with LGBTQ+ clients focuses on meeting the client wherever they are and providing support, encouragement, psycho-education, and other interventions to promote both healing and growth.

Alexis Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMHC, LPC
I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my California Licensure (c;) I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present.

Santa Rosa is the largest city in California's Sonoma County and the hub of the North Bay wine country region, and its mental health landscape has been profoundly shaped by the 2017 Tubbs Fire and subsequent wildfires, which destroyed thousands of homes and left lasting trauma for many residents. Wildfire-related PTSD, grief, climate anxiety, and the stress of community rebuilding remain ongoing therapy concerns alongside the broader mental health needs of a mid-sized California city. Sonoma County Behavioral Health provides public mental health services, while a well-developed private therapy sector serves professionals in the wine, healthcare, and tech industries. Many therapists in the Santa Rosa area have developed particular expertise in disaster trauma and environmental grief, reflecting the distinctive challenges of living in a region with elevated wildfire risk.
