I believe everyone is an artist. My therapy works with the creative souls in all of my clients, from dormant creatives to professional artists. Unfortunately, we all experience trauma of some kind during our lives. Traumatic experiences leave scars on our bodies and our minds that can't speak through words. However, we can listen to and understand our unspeakable pain through the creative arts. Art and creativity are the guides that lead us to healing and solace. Talk therapy is a good a way to get to know you, your coping mechanisms, and identify your goals. We go deeper with creative arts such as drawing and writing, as well as working with the body and mindfulness. Most importantly, you will experience the sense of being understood and seen in the mind and heart of a loving, attuned human being. It is my honor to work with you and witness your precious vulnerability. Much of my effort goes to provide a protective environment so we can work at your own pace and comfort level. Finding a therapist requires courage, and asking for help is a sign of strength. Call me for a free consultation and we'll figure it out together.

Are you feeling like you do not have a safe space to talk to someone without feeling judged or biased? Are you feeling overwhelmed and having difficulty navigating your current intimate relationship(s), family members, friends, etc.? If so, then individual psychotherapy may be the right option for you. I take a non judgmental and open-minded approach when working with all of my clients. I use a Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), and Narrative Therapy approach while incorporating family systems theory. Together, we can help overcome these obstacles and get a better understanding of your own self through self empowerment and esteem.

Therapy is close and personal, I believe that all clients deserve an authentic connection with their therapist. As a team, we may explore root causes, coping mechanisms, and factors of resilience.

I BELIEVE THAT EACH PERSON is a mosaic of experiences, identities, and values and I will tailor our work to your unique needs and goals. I am attentive to your story as an individual or couple as well as broader cultural and sociopolitical dynamics that may impact your experience. I am collaborative and not mysterious - I will share my thinking with you, explain what I believe you may find helpful and why, and welcome your feedback on what is and is not working for you. I WILL DRAW UPON MY TIME studying biology at Harvard to consider and share with you how biological elements such as sleep science, nutrition, stress response, and more may be impacting your wellbeing. I also am happy to discuss how your sexual health intersects with physical and emotional health, and have several years of experience in sex and relationship counseling. If you struggle with any aspect of sex ranging from desire, arousal, accessing pleasure, self-consciousness, or trauma, I am here to acknowledge the taboos around sex in our society, provide a space for open conversation individually or as a couple, and help you get what you want out of your sexuality and sex life. MY CLINICAL STYLE prioritizes validation and fostering a safe environment to navigate vulnerable topics together. Many people tend to invalidate their own emotions - if this sounds like you, I will support you in developing kinder self-talk and holding space for your feelings. We will uncover insight into why you may be stuck in certain patterns or cycles that are not serving you as an individual or in a relationship and use this knowledge to build new ways of moving forward and living your life how you want to. WE WILL REFLECT ON what gives you fulfillment and how to create a life full of meaning and enjoyment. At the same time, we will explore different tools, including somatic methods and emotional skills, that you can use to reduce stress, and anxiety, reshape negative thinking, improve tension-filled relationships, and overall work towards being happier, healthier, and more productive. We may think of the mind as something intangible, but it lives in the body. By learning to support your mental processes and physical well-being, you can achieve balance and peace. No matter where you are on this journey, I will meet you there and support you.

Finding calm and clarity when your mind won’t slow down is possible. I can guide the way. We have more influence over our thoughts than we realize. In our work, you’ll learn to approach your thinking more intentionally. As your thoughts change, you’ll start to notice changes in how you feel, the choices you make, and how you move through your life. I help clients slow things down, make sense of what’s been difficult, and address the patterns that keep them feeling stuck. This often includes working through anxiety, depression, and the impact of trauma and past experiences. I also support women navigating life transitions, helping them feel more grounded and steady through change. My approach is thoughtful and practical, combining insight with tools you can use in your day-to-day life.

I am a bilingual/bicultural Latina therapist with special interest in helping college students as they face personal, relational and career challenges. I provide a safe and stimulating space to think about the most difficult and the most exhilarating moments in life.

I am a bilingual psychotherapist fluent in English and in Tagalog, fostering a trusting and collaborative therapeutic environment where you feel acknowledged and understood. Through this partnership, clients explore their needs, process experiences, acquire coping skills, and cultivate a perspective that promotes authentic self-connection and meaningful engagement with the world. I bring extensive experience from working with diverse individuals and groups, addressing mental health issues such as psychosis, trauma, anxiety, and depression in an inpatient setting. Specializing in grief counseling, I assist people coping with various losses, including relationships, careers, pets, cultures, or hobbies. Drawing from her background as a competitive athlete, I also support athletes with the loss of opportunities, identity, physical abilities, or general sports psychology. Also as a proud Filipina-American, I recognize the difficulty in discussing emotions and mental health within Asian-American communities due to stigma. I advocate for therapy as a safe space to address emotional struggles, and to also express all types of emotions, including positive one’s such as your strengths and achievements. Regardless of one’s identity within the Asian American Pacific Islander Community, I offer support for various challenges including acculturation, family loss, relationship issues, anxiety, depression and identity struggles. I understand there is no one-size-fits-all approach; I will personalize the treatment based on your unique needs and situation. I am here to provide a safe and comfortable place for you to be your real, authentic self, to share a great laugh, cry, or any other emotions free of judgment.

I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor committed to providing trauma-informed, culturally attuned care. I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, and life transitions. As a Latina therapist, I’m passionate about supporting immigrants and first- and second-generation clients navigating cultural identity, intergenerational expectations, and the stigma that can surround mental health. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I use a personalized approach, drawing from CBT, person-centered, and culturally sensitive approaches to meet your unique needs. I show up with empathy, presence, and care—while also gently challenging you with questions that invite reflection, growth, and new perspectives.

I work with straight and gay adolescents and adults to resolve overwhelming feelings and navigate difficult life transitions including anxiety from academic pressures, relationship issues, social anxiety and loneliness, family conflicts, grief and loss, and health concerns including insomnia, and self defeating behaviors and trauma.

I’m Mirla Jimenez, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist dedicated to helping adults and children navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and the emotional patterns that often stem from early life experiences. My therapeutic style is warm, direct, and grounded in cultural awareness. I focus on creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore difficult emotions, understand your patterns, and develop tools that truly help you thrive. Clients often come to me looking for clarity, emotional steadiness, and a deeper connection to themselves and others. In our work together, you can expect compassion, collaboration, and practical strategies you can use in your daily life. My aim is to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered as you move toward a more grounded and fulfilling version of yourself. I use evidence-based practices while also tailoring therapy to each individual’s needs.

I am passionate about supporting people on their journeys of self-exploration, empowerment, and healing. While this journey looks different for everyone, therapy provides us with a unique opportunity to learn more about ourselves- our identities, the people and places that have shaped us, and life experiences. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to show up for ourselves in this way and believe we can do so with curiosity and compassion. I believe in the transformative power of feeling deeply seen and valued in the therapeutic relationship and have personally experienced how it can help us cultivate better relationships with ourselves and others. Together, we may want to explore practices that have helped you survive thus far and experiment with new or different strategies. You may be looking to understand big or challenging feelings bubbling up while navigating life’s complexities. Or you may want to feel more rooted in yourself and your values and want to shift into a more embodied way of moving through the world. Whatever brought you here- I’ll support you every step of the way. We’ll work together to explore your unique needs, while honoring your strengths and innate wisdom. I don’t see myself as an “expert,” rather a skilled and caring partner, excited to support you as we navigate this work together. I strive to be anti-oppressive in my approach, paying special attention to the ways in which people are impacted by systems and -isms as well as my own positionality as a therapist. I completed my Bachelor’s in Gender & Women’s Studies and Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and my Master’s in Social Work at Columbia University. I've been providing therapy in community-based settings for the past 5 years, working predominantly with female, trans, and nonbinary survivors of the criminal legal system and family court system as well as survivors of intimate partner violence/ domestic violence. I am especially passionate about supporting student activists and organizers on campus. My practice is neurodiversity-affirming and I have training in self-psychology and AEDP, a trauma-focused somatic-based modality. I am also completing training for internal family systems. Some of the theoretical perspectives that inform my work include attachment theory, relational approaches, liberation psychology, and narrative therapy. I am also deeply influenced by my abolitionist values. Therapy sessions with me typically occur weekly, although bi-weekly is possible for established clients. I am able to meet via telehealth exclusively (my practice is 100% telehealth with no in-person sessions). I am currently accepting insurance and am also an out-of-network provider. This means that you may be eligible to receive reimbursement through your insurance coverage. My full fee is $150 per 45-minute individual therapy session.

I help adults get back to living their lives – no matter what thoughts and feelings might be hanging around. Does it feel like lately your thoughts, emotions, urges, and impulses are running the show? Do they jerk you around, become the boss, and pull you away from the life you want to live? Do you spend so much time trying to manage your anxiety, or your insomnia, or protect yourself from pain that your life has shrunk? Whether it’s racing thoughts that keep you up all night, or dread that keeps you away from your old hobbies and good friends, or a diagnosis you were handed with little to no support – I’m here for you. Let’s get YOU and your deepest values running the show again – so that you can build a satisfying and vibrant life. I am a licensed clinical psychologist and focus primarily on health psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and biofeedback. This means that I have in-depth knowledge about how the mind and body influence each other and how to move towards a healthier, calmer baseline in your day-to-day life. I use a variety of skills to help reduce the power of exhausting thoughts and feelings, improve your ability to relax, figure out what matters most to you, and learn to relate to pain, worry, sleeplessness, and other struggles in new ways. A large part of treatment includes education about pain, anxiety, the nervous system, and mindfulness - all of which can have a positive impact on mental health and well-being. As a neuroscience geek, I can get really excited about new research and I love to share this with my patients. On a more personal note: I have been where you are right now. You are not alone.

You may be in a place in your life where you have noticed patterns of behavior that you would benefit from changing in some way. You may have contemplated these areas and feel like you have an understanding of when these issues arise and what has caused them, but are unsure of what you can do to address them. Perhaps you’ve found it difficult to communicate your wants and needs in certain situations. Or maybe you’ve realized that your methods of coping are neither the healthiest nor most helpful for dealing with distress. You may have even noticed that your relationships have fit into a pattern that you are now dissatisfied with. I am here to help you finally transition from reflection action. Working with me, you will work on figuring out the tangible steps you can take to improve what you would like to improve in your life. I will help you refine a skillset that will help you ensure that you are meeting your own needs while also nurturing those positive relationships in your life. As a queer, non-binary clinician, I also recognize the unique ways those of us in the LGBTQ+ community may identify and live our lives, and as such will help to ensure that the skills you build affirm your lifestyle. If this sounds of interest to you, please do not hesitate to book a free fifteen minute consultation with me today so you can begin growing.

I work primarily with adults who are looking to explore themselves and their relationship patterns to work toward more meaningful connections.

When you’re craving real change but feel stuck—whether it’s anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, or a big life transition—you deserve a therapist who truly hears you. Someone who doesn’t judge, who offers tools you can actually use, and who helps you understand the deeper patterns shaping your thoughts and emotions. My clients often want to feel more grounded, strengthen their relationships, build confidence, and move through life with more clarity and direction. Most of all, they want to feel more like themselves again—or discover who they’re becoming. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I draw from CBT, DBT, and person-centered therapy to help you make sense of what you’re going through, develop effective coping skills, and move toward the life you want. I believe therapy should feel empowering—a space where you can show up as you are and be met with respect, compassion, and curiosity. Whether you’re looking for guidance, a place to process, or support in making meaningful changes, I’m here to help you move forward at a pace that feels right for you.

Creating a space for someone to feel supported and heard is my first priority. The most important aspect of a therapeutic relationship is the dynamic between client and therapist. When you truly feel comfortable and understood by your therapist then that is when therapy can thrive. The goal in the work we do is to focus on assisting you in healing so that you are able to use the space and time we have to decipher what would work best for you to move forward. Therapy is a place for you to unwind, unload and have an opportunity to speak your thoughts out loud, reflect and make sense of how you would like to proceed away from stress, anxiety, anger, melancholy or behaviors that are no longer useful and yet challenging to change. I have worked in the field of HIV, substance use and mental health for over a decade. Primarily working in community health centers and non profit organizations, I have had the honor of providing mental health services to homeless men and women, adults who are actively using substances and unsure of what changes they would like to make, if any, and with homeless youth who are struggling with a severe mental illness. My graduate education and training was started and completed in the Bay Area where I also taught mindfulness meditation through a research study at UCSF.
