I arrive as a human first, therapist second. I consider myself a deeply attuned feeler and a lover of animals. My personal process deeply influences my process as a psychotherapist. Navigating complex trauma, navigating the world as a deep feeler, and returning to being in my body are core processes where I have transmuted pain into spaciousness.

Hi! I'm Rikki. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with dual master's degrees and over eight years of experience working in community mental health, private practice, and forensic settings. I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, anger management, sexual concerns, identity exploration, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and tailored to each person I work with. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard, challenged when it's helpful, and supported as we work together to better understand what's getting in the way and build practical strategies that fit your life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Sonoma County with six years of clinical experience working with young people and families. I've worked across a range of settings including intensive residential treatment, county behavioral health, and outpatient care, and I bring that breadth of experience into my private practice. I specialize in working with preteens, teens, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, family conflict, and life transitions. I also work with couples on a private pay basis.

You’re doing everything “right”—staying active, showing up for others, pushing through—but you’re still stuck in your head. You overthink everything. You’re constantly anxious, tense, and on edge. Maybe you feel like you’re always performing—for your team, your job, your family—and you’re tired of carrying it all.

I specialize in working with athletes and active adults who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, and people-pleasing. Together, we create a space where you can finally breathe, feel grounded, and build emotional strength to match your physical drive.

My approach combines CBT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and solution-focused strategies through my signature T.H.R.I.V.E. Method. We’ll work together to untangle old patterns, reconnect with your body, and build clarity and confidence from the inside out.

If you’re ready to feel more present, powerful, and mentally strong, I’d be honored to support you.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, founder of Legato Axis, and my clinical work is informed by 30+ years as a Silicon Valley executive, bringing real-world context to my practice with individuals, couples, and complex families across diverse demographics.

My real education, however, began much earlier: I grew up in an environment where reading the emotional energy of a room was a survival necessity. That early need to understand the "unspoken" forged a deep hyper-vigilance—an ability to track patterns and find the solutions needed to move things forward. I eventually took that same focus into the high-pressure world of global industry, where I successfully navigated the same transitions and pressures my clients face today.

Today, I sit on the other side of the therapy chair. I don’t just listen to your words; I sense the complexity of the world you are carrying. In my work with couples and individuals, I act as a bridge, speaking both the language of logic and the language of emotion. This ensures that both partners feel truly seen and that we move toward real coherence.

Whether you are navigating burnout, difficult life transitions, or complex relational conflict, you don’t need to have the answers before we meet. My goal is to help you clear the noise and find a path back to peace and flow. If you are ready for this journey, I invite you to reach out for a conversation.

As an Asian American growing up overseas, I bring cultural considerations and my multicultural experiences into the therapy process.

My name is Jacqueline Aguilar, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Southern California with over 13 years of experience in both mental health and healthcare settings. As a therapist, I am especially passionate about helping individuals overcome their fear of travel—whether that involves flying, visiting a new country, or taking a first cruise. In addition to this focus, I support clients in managing anxiety disorders, chronic health, depression, self esteem and OCD.

I have found it deeply rewarding to help individuals build self-esteem, navigate life transitions such as divorce or breakups, and process grief related to the loss of a loved one or cherished pet. Ultimately, my goal is to support each person in reaching meaningful, lasting change.

I became a therapist because I genuinely believe people can heal, and I wanted to be part of that. Six years in, that has not changed.

My path in this field has covered a lot of ground. I started with youth and family work, learning early how to meet people in complicated circumstances and stay steady alongside them. Then I spent nearly three years as a primary therapist in substance use and recovery settings, working with adults navigating co-occurring disorders and the kind of life disruption that comes with addiction. That work sharpened how I show up in a session.

I hold a Master's in Counseling Psychology from National University in San Diego and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I work with adults and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. I use an individualized approach for each person because no two people arrive with the same history, the same goals, or the same pace. I draw from CBT, DBT-informed techniques, and trauma-aware approaches depending on what the work calls for.

My goal is straightforward: I want you to leave sessions feeling different. Not just heard, but equipped. I want the work to translate into something real in your life.
