About Us

Lena is a somatically informed Relational Psychotherapist who specializes in the treatment of trauma. What does this mean? Many people in our culture have suffered some form of trauma in childhood or their adult life – illness, physical harm, emotional neglect, or verbal abuse – but essentially trauma is anything that causes a person to feel worthless helpless, insecure, or even endangered. This type of deep experience impacts the whole being and dictates the way we function in our lives.

Rebecca has been working in the mental health field for over 25 years, counseling individuals, families, and groups in a variety of settings, which has allowed her to work with a highly diverse population of people. Gaining knowledge and experience in working with diversity, and being able to offer services equitably, are core values of hers – which of course involves ongoing examination and acknowledgment of her limitations.

Blythe believes that trust, safety, and curiosity are the three most helpful ingredients in an effective relationship between the client and the therapist, and she enjoys nurturing these three elements in her work. Whether her clients struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, or any other life challenge, she partners with them in a collaborative way.

Inga received her graduate degree from the USF in Counseling Psychology and her bachelor’s degree from the UCSC in Feminist Studies. Both universities emphasize a systems-thinking approach which has traveled with Inga into her psychotherapy practice. This is known as a bio-psycho-spiritual-social approach to therapy, this means we explore what it means to be you from multiple lenses.

Annette is grateful for the opportunity to guide her clients through life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, painful relationships and other life challenges. These are all common & natural human experiences that can benefit from the support of a skilled therapist. She has a particular affinity for helping people create healthy, safe and secure relationships.

Maggie firmly believes that the heart of counseling work rests in a therapist's ability to listen and to nurture a trusting relationship. Her style is characterized by warmth, compassion, and genuine connection. As an immigrant, Maggie's multicultural background fosters an openness to diverse perspectives.

Caroline is focusing on the holistic well-being of individuals and families. She believes in the importance of respect and creating a safe, nurturing space where clients can truly be themselves. Caroline uses somatic techniques, such as body awareness meditation and cognitive and behavior-based changes to tailor interventions to each client’s unique needs.
