Feeling Stuck or Disconnected?
Are you feeling stuck or disconnected in your romantic relationship? Or are you navigating the challenges of being single, struggling to find a meaningful connection? You’re not alone. Many people face relational hurdles that can leave them feeling unfulfilled or isolated. We all yearn for healthy, authentic relationships, yet unresolved attachment wounds from childhood can lead us to repeat painful patterns that keep us from achieving them.
Healing Through Attachment-Focused Therapy
As an attachment-focused therapist, I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal these deep-rooted wounds. Together, we will address dysfunctional patterns, improve communication, and regulate emotions to foster healthy connections and intimacy. Whether you're working through infidelity, rebuilding trust, or confronting other relational challenges, I provide a compassionate, structured approach to guide your healing.
Support for Intimacy and Sexual Concerns
As a Certified Sex Therapist, I also support clients in navigating sensitive issues around sexual dysfunction, mismatched desire, or other intimacy concerns. I understand how crucial it is to create a safe, affirming space to explore these deeply personal topics.
Evidence-Based and Creative Approaches
With advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy (PAT), I draw from a wide range of evidence-based modalities tailored to your unique needs. As an Art Therapist, I incorporate creative and experiential approaches for those seeking additional ways to process and express their experiences.
Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion in Relationships
I am passionate about creating a safe, affirming space for individuals and couples from all walks of life, including those in the LGBTQIA2S+ community. I understand the unique dynamics and challenges faced by diverse relationships and honor the identities and experiences of each partner. My approach supports couples in navigating complex relational issues, improving communication, and fostering deeper emotional connections while celebrating their individuality and shared journey.
Empowering Growth and Fulfillment
I firmly believe that healing and growth stem from tapping into the innate strengths we all possess. My role as your therapist is to help you uncover these hidden resources, enabling you to live with greater intention, purpose, and fulfillment. Clients often share that they feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported in our work together, which is a reflection of my commitment to fostering a secure, collaborative therapeutic relationship.
Take the Next Step
If you're ready to take the next step toward the life and relationships you truly deserve, I encourage you to reach out. Let’s work together to break free from old patterns and build the thriving, connected life you’ve been longing for!
Natalie Hull, M.A., AMFT
About Me
I am an emotionally focused therapist specializing in helping couples and individuals navigate relationship challenges. My approach is experiential, exploring attachment needs, underlying emotions, and subconscious beliefs that may contribute to distress. I strive to create an affirmative, non-pathologizing space where clients feel supported and empowered as they work through life’s complexities.
Couples Therapy
It’s common for partners to feel stuck in cycles of criticism, insecurity, or avoidance. My role is to interrupt these patterns by addressing relational issues at their root. I reframe conflict as a problematic interaction cycle that often masks deeper vulnerabilities and unmet needs.
Utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method techniques, we explore how attachment styles influence the relationship dynamic. Together, we work to replace reactivity with greater awareness, emotional connection, and improved communication. My goal is to help couples rediscover trust, foster intimacy, and build stronger, healthier relationships.
My clinical experience includes working with couples facing challenges such as betrayal, anxiety, intimacy issues, infidelity, family conflict, financial/job stress, mood disorders, and major life transitions.
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, you are the expert on your life, and my role is to collaborate with you as we explore the patterns you’re looking to change. While my primary modality is Emotionally Focused Therapy, I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) when appropriate to address your unique needs.
I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship challenges and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Together, we focus on present-moment processing and emotional regulation techniques to foster adaptive behaviors and secure connections—with yourself and others.
Commitment to Inclusivity
I am committed to creating a welcoming, non-discriminatory environment where clients from all backgrounds feel valued and supported. I work affirmatively with individuals and couples in the LGBTQIA2S+ community and believe in the importance of honoring each client’s unique experiences and identities.
Professional Background
As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I bring a combination of evidence-based methods and clinical research experience to my practice. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy and in therapeutic techniques with high efficacy to help clients achieve lasting results.
I currently offer evening telehealth appointments for residents of California. If you have any questions or are ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out. I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
Jennie Jung, M.A., AMFT
As a therapist, I strive to help you heal from past wounds, interpersonal injuries, and struggles with self-doubt, fear, and isolation. By slowing down to understand the roots of your suffering and learning to hold and move through your pain with compassion, my hope is for you to rebuild trust and love—both in your relationships and within yourself. With deeper awareness, compassion, and empowerment, we will work together to begin the journey of life-changing growth.
I am deeply committed to helping you find inner peace and connection, with a focus on understanding the impact of childhood, racial, and cultural trauma on your mental and relational well-being. This means that together, we will examine your early experiences and past relationships through a cultural lens to better understand your present struggles. Every culture experiences pain uniquely, and I believe healing should be just as unique as you are. My journey as a psychotherapist is shaped by my own experiences as a Korean American woman, immigrant, partner, and mother, which inform my understanding of how culture shapes our lives and our paths to healing.
My approach is fluid and adaptable, tailored to you and your needs in the collaborative space we create. As much emotional pain stems from relationships, I believe that healing also happens through connection—and therapy can be a space for that healing. To do this, I focus on building trust and connection in our relationship, showing up authentically as myself, listening attentively, offering nonjudgmental reflections, and gently challenging you to explore your inner world. Whether working with individuals or couples, my goal is to create the space where you feel safe and empowered to express vulnerability, trust your insights, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others.
Change requires patience, commitment, and dedication, but it doesn’t have to be a lonely journey. Therapy can provide support and connection along the way, and I would be honored to walk with you on this path!
Emma Finney, M.A., AMFT, APCC
At some point, we all face emotional struggles. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or personal growth, it can be isolating. I’m here to offer support, compassion, and evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help guide you through these challenges.
Having someone who listens and creates a safe, validating space is crucial to the healing process. Together, we’ll work to understand your needs, build coping skills, and improve communication to foster healthier relationships. Often, the coping strategies we rely on are learned from past experiences, but may no longer serve us in current situations. In therapy, we’ll focus on developing adaptive communication and coping strategies to express yourself more clearly and confidently.
As a compassionate therapist, I support individuals, couples, and families on their healing journey. I’m a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC) with training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and EMDR. These evidence-based approaches support emotional regulation, trauma recovery, and relationship improvement.
I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University and am currently pursuing a Doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy (DMFT), further enhancing my ability to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care.
I look forward to partnering with you on your path toward healing, growth, and stronger, healthier relationships.
Haley Stinson, M.S., AMFT, APCC
Couples Therapy — A Trauma-Informed Approach
You want closeness—but find yourself guarded, defended, or bracing instead. Maybe it’s not that you’ve stopped caring. It’s that somewhere along the way, it stopped feeling safe to be vulnerable.
I work with couples who feel stuck in cycles of disconnection, not because their relationship is broken—but because that’s how they’ve learned to protect themselves. Criticism, contempt, and silence are often just self-protection in disguise. I help couples who typically armor up in their relationships, begin to soften, reach for each other, and feel supported instead of alone.
As a trauma-informed couples therapist, I pay close attention to how each partner’s past relationships shape their current patterns. I don’t just focus on the surface-level conflict—I look for what’s underneath. I see the strategies people developed when vulnerability felt dangerous, and I help make sense of those strategies with compassion, not shame. This lens allows me to see through defenses and connect with the fears, longings, and emotional truths that often go unspoken. My goal is to help you feel deeply seen for who you really are—not just the version of you that’s learned to survive in relationships.
My presence in the therapy room is often described as warm, collaborative, and deeply intentional. I draw from Compassionate Inquiry, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and EMDR to help clients explore the deeper layers of their experience. I strive to create a space that feels emotionally safe, gently challenging, and honoring of every part of you—even the ones that feel hard to share. One of my strengths is knowing how to hold emotional depth while also bringing lightness and levity into the therapy room—using humor, sarcasm, and creativity to help heavy moments feel more human and bearable.
Relationships aren’t about being perfect—they’re about being safe enough to be real. If your relationship is feeling more painful than supportive lately, I’d be honored to help you find your way back to each other. There’s room here for all the messy, guarded, sensitive layers of you. I’d love to help you tend to them with care.
I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC), and I received my M.S. in Counseling with a Marriage and Family Therapy Concentration from California State University, Fullerton.
Let’s work together to create the connection you both deserve.
Michael Yau, M.S., AMFT
Hello, I’m Michael, a person-centered therapist dedicated to creating a warm, supportive space where healing and growth can happen. I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT), helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges.
My approach is rooted in attachment theory, and I often draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method when working with couples. These frameworks support clients in understanding their relationship dynamics, building emotional connection, and communicating more effectively.
I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful, evidence-based therapy for processing trauma and reducing distressing symptoms. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients deepen self-awareness, foster internal balance, and stay grounded in the present moment.
My therapeutic style is grounded in person-centered therapy–meeting clients with authenticity and compassion while creating a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I work collaboratively to help you find balance, clarity, and meaning in your life.
I have experience supporting clients with relationship conflicts, depression, anxiety, PTSD, men’s issues, behavioral challenges, self-esteem, and addiction. I also support clients working through grief and loss, divorce or separation, life transitions, identity-related questions, and attachment-related trauma.
As a husband and father of two young children, I bring real-life understanding to the joys and stressors of parenting and family life, offering supportive guidance to families navigating a variety of challenges.
Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to support you on your path to healing and growth.
America Islas, MS., LMFT
I am a passionate leader, advocate, and changemaker in LGBTQ+ affirming care, dedicated to dismantling barriers, challenging bias, and creating safe, inclusive, and empowering spaces for individuals, couples, and families. My work is grounded in the belief that everyone, regardless of gender identity, expression, or sexual orientation, deserves access to high-quality, affirming mental health care that fosters self-acceptance, resilience, and healing.
With over eight years as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and six years of experience as a clinical supervisor, I have played a pivotal role in training and mentoring mental health professionals in best practices for gender-affirming therapy. Through training, consultation, advocacy, and cultural humility, I equip clinicians with the skills to provide competent, inclusive, and culturally responsive care, helping ensure that LGBTQ+ individuals, especially trans and nonbinary communities, receive the respect, validation, and support they deserve.
In my work with couples, I integrate a narrative therapy approach, helping partners externalize problems, identify dominant relational stories, and co-create preferred narratives rooted in connection, accountability, and shared meaning. I support couples in slowing down conflict cycles, exploring underlying emotional experiences, and strengthening communication by honoring each partner’s lived experience while fostering deeper understanding, repair, and emotional safety.
Whether you are seeking affirming therapy, professional consultation, or clinical training, I am committed to creating a space where authenticity, connection, and healing can thrive. I welcome the opportunity to support individuals, couples, families, and clinicians in building deeper understanding, resilience, and meaningful change.
Jenna Goldsberry, AMFT, APCC
Much like tending to the roots of a tree supports its ability to grow and thrive, I believe meaningful healing begins by understanding and caring for the deeper roots of our emotional pain and relationship struggles. In therapy, this means looking beyond surface symptoms to explore the underlying patterns, experiences, and beliefs that may be contributing to distress, disconnection, or feeling stuck.
I work with individuals and couples to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where these deeper emotions and experiences can safely come into focus. Sometimes we develop ways of coping that once helped us survive, but no longer serve us in the present. Together, we will explore what your emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns may be communicating and what is needed to support healing, growth, and greater connection.
My approach is rooted in psychodynamic, narrative, and emotion-focused therapy. I help clients better understand how past experiences and relational patterns shape their current emotional world while also supporting them in developing new ways of relating to themselves and others. I believe healing happens not by avoiding difficult emotions, but by approaching them with curiosity, compassion, and care.
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe to show up as their authentic selves. Cultural humility and trauma-informed care are central to my work, and I deeply value understanding the unique experiences, identities, and stories each client brings into the therapy room.
I received my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from California State University, Fullerton. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC), I have experience supporting individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship difficulties, suicidal ideation, and major life transitions. My work in substance abuse treatment has deepened my understanding of the ways we sometimes learn to disconnect from emotional pain, as well as the healing that can emerge when we begin turning toward ourselves with greater honesty and compassion.
I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients in their healing process and look forward to supporting you in creating a more connected, meaningful, and authentic life.
