Hi, I'm Mark.

I work with adolescents, teens, young adults, and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, and relationships.

If you feel overwhelmed by emotions, we can face these challenges together with a good plan and the right tools. I have a lot of experience working with neurodiversity, anxiety, and self-harm.

Therapy can expand and strengthen your network of support, especially during difficult times. Reach out today--I'd love to answer any questions and share more.

Rachelle Goldenberg

Rachelle Goldenberg

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 14 mi away • Walnut Creek, CA


You've always been capable.

The systems around you weren't built for you.

I'm Rachelle Goldenberg, LCSW — a licensed clinical social worker, neuroaffirming therapist, and a late-diagnosed AuDHD adult. That last part matters, because I know firsthand what it's like to spend most of your life feeling like you're failing at something everyone else finds easy.

Over 26 years in this field, I've learned that how I practice isn't determined by training alone. It's shaped by understanding that exhaustion, avoidance, emotional intensity, or difficulty focusing often isn't a character flaw—it's information about what your nervous system, body, and environment actually need.

At Swift Mind Care, I focus my work to serve neurodivergent adults navigating ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, and the quiet grief of a late diagnosis. If you've spent years wondering why the world felt so much harder for you than it seemed to for others, you're in the right place.

Mindy Leake

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 27 mi away • Novato, CA


Hello, I'm Mindy. I'm a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 16 years of clinical experience. My path has included military service, community health work in rural Morocco, and care across many settings, from intensive care to hospice. These experiences shape how I show up: with warmth, curiosity, cultural humility, and respect for everyone's story. I treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

That means taking time to dig into your history, what has worked, what has not, and what you actually want from your care. Whether that is medication management or medication management with therapy, we figure it out together.

I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and life transitions including loss, chronic illness, major life changes, and times when you just cannot name what is wrong yet.
