Grace Catherine (Laboy)

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Are you a “deep feeler” or do you struggle with feelings that are “too-big?” If you are, you’ve come to the right place. Or perhaps you’re just a human existing in this wild and wonderful but immensely difficult world, and you want some extra support. The single most important thing for me as a therapist is that my clients feel safe and connected. I believe that a sense of emotional and physical safety as well as connection are essential to healing and growth in the therapy room, so I strive to create a comfortable, safe, and nonjudgmental environment for my clients at the outset of treatment. A therapist isn’t your friend, family member, or colleague, but a unique, genuine human connection, and I take this responsibility seriously. I take pride in my ability to establish rapport and trust with my clients at the outset of treatment, building the foundation for effective therapy.

Susan Diamond, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist, California, LMFT #100515
Congratulations on taking the first steps towards healing through therapy. I am honored that you are considering working with me. As a Marriage and Family Therapist with over ten years of experience, I have confidence in the power of therapy to foster insight and emotional wellbeing. I believe authenticity between therapists and clients is a key factor in how successful treatment will be. With this in mind, I will strive to create a genuine and welcoming environment, to listen deeply, and to join you in examining your experiences. My goal is to honor each person's unique needs while respecting the complex range of experiences that shape us all. I also try to create an environment that feels relaxed and down to earth, with plenty of laughter. Although therapy is serious work, seeing the humor and enjoying the absurdity of life goes a long way toward lightening the load!

Matthew Kijak, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Let's work through this together. If you’re feeling worn out, anxious, and disconnected, and your current way of living feels off course, my therapeutic approach can provide the support you need. Much of our distress originates from deeply rooted, uncontrollable negative thoughts about ourselves and the world, embedded during our upbringing. Often, we remain unaware of what keeps us stuck, making it challenging to find a way out. I've been fortunate to assist numerous individuals whose lives felt unsustainable and unfulfilling, guiding them to uncover their truest, most vibrant selves. This process is not about making minor adjustments; it's about profound transformation. The life you desire is closer than you realize, but the path to it isn’t always clear when traveled alone. Together, we will explore evidence-based techniques, enriched with the wisdom of philosophy, the tranquility of Buddhism, the strength of Stoicism, the practice of Mindfulness, and the insights of the mind-body connection through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This isn’t just about self-improvement; it’s a deep awakening, liberating you from the negative thoughts and emotions that have held you back."

Chloe Lankshear

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
If you think you're ready to make some changes in your life, then I'm your person! If you've been struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, setting boundaries and/or relationship issues and you've been trying hard, but what you've been doing hasn't worked as well as you'd hoped, then we could be a good match. I'm originally from London, (one of the most diverse cities in the world). I'm half British and half French and I've also lived in Florida, California and now live in Costa Rica. As you can probably tell, I'm interested in different cultures, backgrounds and worldviews and how they can influence how we think and how we navigate our lives. I also have an appreciation and an understanding of the challenges involved in being an immigrant/the emotional upheaval of moving location. If all of this feels like a good fit, reach out for a consultation!

Ashlyn Williams

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
If you’re a millennial woman who only realized you had OCD as an adult, you know what it’s like to feel stuck in your own mind. You might spend hours needing things to feel “just right,” second-guessing every choice, or checking and re-checking to feel certain. Small decisions can feel impossible, thoughts loop endlessly, and the urge to get rid of doubt can be exhausting, but you don’t have to face it alone.
