Meet Our Counselors

I am a marriage and family therapist associate (AMFT # 113131). I believe everyone can benefit from someone walking with them in life and, with intention,  listen to their story. The ability to draw out and uncover possible trouble spots or to give insight, I believe to be a special skill that, sometimes, can only be done in a therapeutic relationship. 

I am passionate about helping marriages, couples, individuals, husbands, wives, and parents be the best they can be or even helping those in trouble get to places where they never thought possible.  Having worked with people in various environments for over 15 years I am familiar with our brokenness in humanity and see hope for us all to become whole people. Whether you desire a listening ear or need help battling depression or anxiety, I am willing to help. 

I am not limited to one theory of therapy as each person is individual and may respond in different ways. It is important to me to hear each person and provide finding a path that will work for them. I look forward to working with you and/or your family. I received my undergraduate in Psychology from Sacramento State Unviersity and a Master’s Degree at Brandman University. I am available on Monday and Tuesday.

As a counselor (ASW #87557), I consider it an honor to work beside individuals who have the courage and willingness to see vulnerability as a strength and conscious change as a necessary risk for growth. I believe that moving through our pain allows the development of purpose, perspective and meaning. It is a privilege and pleasure to walk with clients as they learn to release themselves from judgement. I am honored to act as their guide through this profound process of personal healing and transformation.

My experience is grounded in over thirty years of marriage, parenting children to adulthood, lifelong learning and education. I received a Masters Degree in Social Work from Sacramento State University, graduating Magna Cum Laude with an emphasis in Child and Family studies. I hold a Pupil Personnel Services Credential (PPS-C) and a certification in trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TFCBT). I volunteer as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for children and families. My practice emphasizes compassion while working with clients as they gain awareness toward their own unique healing process.

I have been intrigued with the field of psychology and helping others since I can remember. I grew up in Southern California, the oldest of four kids. After graduating with my B.A. in Psychology from Azusa Pacific University and then getting my M.A in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hope International University, I moved away to help support my husband in his career. We traveled and lived in many different states all around the country, had kids and have since landed in Northern California where we enjoy exploring the beautiful outdoors as a family. 

The years between graduating and becoming a registered intern, have been filled with life's challenges, grief, parenthood, transitions, entrepreneurship and much more. I am currently in the process of gaining my hours as an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, #122311. 

I enjoy working with couples, families, kids, adolescents, teens and young adults who have had a variety of emotional and relational issues such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, establishing boundaries, parenthood, maternal mental health and navigating life’s transitions. I approach each session with curiosity and am humbled by the stories I am privileged to. Together, we can work on bringing healing and restoration to relational wounds.

Hello, my name is Brianna, but most people call me Bri. I prefer for clients to get to know me and what I bring to the table during our sessions.  With that being said I do understand that sometimes being able to read about the therapist can help someone decide is this the right person for you as not every therapist will be the right fit for you. 

As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT#128655) I believe that every client is unique and deserves to be treated as such, and my goal as a therapist is to utilize many different therapeutic approaches to walk alongside my clients in their journey. I strive to create an open, authentic, genuine, and compassionate environment where clients can feel comfortable expressing the worries, troubles, and challenges they face. 

I enjoy working with children, teens, young adults, individuals, couples, etc. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in communications at the University of Nevada Reno and just recently completed my Master’s in counseling psychology marriage and family therapy track at National University. In my spare time I enjoy being surrounded by my family, close friends, and finding new adventures.

My name is Lyl and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist. It takes an immense amount of bravery to step outside of what has been “normal” and envision something better or fulfilling for ourselves. My approach to therapy comes from the belief that there is power in connection. I believe that healing is an experience of your brilliant mind, body, and soul and hope to create a safe space where you can feel valued and heard on your healing journey.  

Someone once told me that our healing journey in therapy can be imagined as a walk. At times, you will walk ahead, other times I will take your hand and show you where the next step is, and many times, we will walk beside one another. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship filled with trust so that you can feel safe in knowing you will never be alone.  

Educationally, I hold a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Brandman University. I am passionate about working with individuals BIPOC, LGBTQ+, trauma and those in the perinatal and postpartum period and am trained in Brainspotting.

Telehealth only

As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (#126101) it is my desire for each client to feel completely seen, accepted and connected with along their journey. I have a non-judgmental, empathetic heart that makes space for anyone. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, teenagers, LGBTQ+, and anyone who just needs a listening ear. 

I thoroughly take pleasure in helping others see their own potential while also gaining a greater sense of autonomy in their lives. Life is hard at times, and depression and anxiety are something that one can experience, especially in these past two years. I am here to partner with you, to help you manage those symptoms, explore some hidden and maybe not so hidden feelings, and help you gain perspective. My clients are an inspiration to me and seeing their personal growth is one of my greatest celebrations. 

I received my BA from Dominican University May,  2003 and my Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology from William Jessup University April, 2021. When I’m not doing therapy I am playing with my dogs, spending time with my children and husband, or searching for a new recipe to try. I believe life has many different seasons, some painstakingly hard and others, bright and beautiful. I am honored to hear your story.

I am a marriage and family therapist trainee and am passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families to meet their goals. Everyone experiences challenges at some point in their life and therapy offers the opportunity for someone to walk alongside you providing you

with a listening ear, support, and motivation in your journey. 

I am passionate about meeting

people and building a genuine connection to work collaboratively to meet your individual goals. I enjoy working with the LGBTQ+ community, individuals, couples, and families. My approach to therapy is to provide a safe place for clients to feel heard and are comfortable expressing your thoughts being vulnerable. I also implement a variety of techniques from a range of therapeutic approaches.

I obtained my bachelor’s degree in psychology from California State University, Sacramento and am currently earning my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with an LPCC emphasis from Touro University Worldwide. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and dogs, playing video games, learning new things, and watching sports.

I am excited that you have taken the first step on this journey and look forward to walking alongside you and working with you.

Hello! I am Caylin, a wife, a mother of 2 kiddos, and someone who wholeheartedly believes that there is a fuller, richer life along the road to healing. That healing can start the moment you partner with someone and invite them in. The art of Kintsugi is when a broken piece of pottery is repaired with liquid gold, turning something seemingly worthless to something more valuable than before. That is the best visual of how I see this walk with you! 

When I’m not with my family, you can find me in the kitchen trying new recipes, buried in a book about spirituality or relationships, or in Home Depot diving deep into whatever my newest hobby is. 

I work with anyone in any season and on top of individual counseling I have specific passions for working with mamas, children, teens, and families. I am a Marriage And Family Therapist Trainee.

I desire to create a safe, warm, and inclusive space where you are seen and heard. I would be honored to hear your story and meet you with acceptance, empathy, and support. My hope is that through therapy, you can come home to yourself, live more fully alive, and experience transformational healing.

I am a trauma-informed therapist and passionate about helping people regulate their nervous systems and heal from trauma, sexual abuse, and PTSD. I also help people struggling with anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, codependency, unhealthy relationship dynamics, narcissistic abuse, low self-esteem, and intimacy concerns. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and enjoy working with those in the community.

I will show up as my authentic self to our sessions and meet you right where you are. Sometimes you might come into our sessions looking for a solution, and other times you might show up needing a safe place to land. No matter what you are going through, I will be here for you.

I received my MA in Counseling from Palo Alto University and my BA in Psychology from William Jessup University.
