Sara Gillooly
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPCC
As a queer and AuDHD therapist myself, I have lived experience in learning how to live a life that feels more authentic and grounded. I specialize in working with queer, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent adults struggling with the impacts of trauma as well as feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult family relationships, and identity exploration. Ultimately, I'm not interested in "treating" your neurodivergence but I will support you wholeheartedly in navigating the complexities that come with it.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
I'm well-versed in the pain-points that come with being queer in America -- the discrimination, the family shame, the religious judgment, the micro-aggressions, and more. Love is love, acceptance is acceptance, and you're perfect regardless of who you love.

Torrance is a South Bay Los Angeles city with one of the largest Japanese-American communities on the mainland — a legacy of Toyota's former US headquarters and American Honda's continuing one — alongside diverse middle-class neighborhoods and a strong healthcare sector. Mental health needs include Asian-American family and identity dynamics, where culturally informed care matters and stigma can delay help-seeking, plus the standard pressures of high-cost coastal California life. Torrance Memorial and Providence Little Company of Mary anchor healthcare, with a broad LA market nearby.
