Kristin Miyoko Papa
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It's hard for you to put yourself first or even ask for help. You've been struggling with anxiety or burnout for a while and you know something needs to change, but you tend to take care of everyone else before yourself. You're usually the first to jump into help others and are the go-to person for your family, friends, or coworkers so prioritizing your own mental health almost feels selfish since you think you "don't have it that bad". But now you're ready to take the step to reconnect with your own needs, make yourself a priority, and clarify your core values so they can be your road map towards the life you want.
I specialize in anxiety and helping people who are tired of putting themselves last & want stop feeling guilty about prioritizing their own well-being. I help my clients align their lives with their values & empower them to make sustainable changes. I work with people who want to learn tools to feel more grounded & to show up as the person you want to be.

Kelsi McMartin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My clients often say.. "you nailed it!" when I offer my sense of things. Maybe its my 20 plus years in the field, maybe its pattern recognition, or maybe its intuition... hard to say. I have a way of getting to the heart of things with my clients. In these days of so much outside noise, it can be hard to tune in to what's really important, what's really needed. I help my clients connect with this and with the unlived parts of themselves.

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.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?
