Hello! I'm Keeley Estrada, LMFT. I am passionate about supporting my clients in connecting with themselves and what truly matters to them. I understand the importance of having a therapist who gets you and what you are going through.
I completed my masters in marriage and family therapy at USC and bachelors in psychology at SJSU. I have experience working in all levels of care including private practice, community mental health agencies, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization.
Support throughout life, especially during life transitions, is critical yet often hard to find. Family and friends may be unavailable or simply not understand. Furthermore, guilt, shame and overwhelm can complicate navigating transitions, whether due to a significant loss, medical diagnosis, new beginnings or a host of other reasons.
I am a licensed mental health therapist who is well versed in providing support to diverse individuals working through life transitions including the immense pain and harsh reality that grief and loss can bring. I am also a trained perinatal mental health therapist with a passion for providing support during preconception, pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.
Hi, I'm Young Lee, a PMHNP-BC based in CA. Before entering healthcare, I was a varsity soccer player and served as a sergeant in the U.S. Army — experiences that taught me what it really means to show up for people, stay the course when things get hard, and lead with purpose. Those values followed me into every patient interaction I have today.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Duke University and my Master of Science in Nursing with a PMHNP specialization from Charles R. Drew University. My clinical background spans inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison, and telehealth settings. I've sat with patients in crisis at 2 a.m. and walked alongside others through quiet, steady progress over months — I value both of those moments equally.
I work with adults and geriatric populations, managing conditions including ADHD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, PTSD, OCD, panic disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, sleep disorders, substance use disorders, and eating disorders. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with psychotherapy techniques, tailored to each individual's needs and goals. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all treatment — your story matters, and your care plan should reflect that.
I understand that seeking help takes courage — sometimes it's the hardest step in the entire process — and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. Whether you're navigating a new diagnosis or optimizing your current treatment plan, I'm here to partner with you on your journey toward wellness. You don't have to have it all figured out before reaching out.
I'm also proud to have contributed to clinical research, including co-authoring work presented at a national conference and participating in a BLS competence study at Duke University, keeping my care grounded in the latest evidence. I look forward to working with you.

LMFT, MA in Counseling Psychology from CIIS
Somatic oriented, Humanistic
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 28 years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the Hunter School of Social Work and have lived and practiced in California for over three decades. My professional background includes extensive work with older adults, individuals experiencing homelessness, and adults living with severe and persistent mental illness. I am known for my patient, compassionate, and attentive approach, and I strive to be fully engaged and present with every client I serve. My goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized support that helps clients feel understood and empowered in their therapeutic journey.
I am a bicultural, 55-year-old and very proud father of two adolescents. In this growing age of isolation and need for sincere, genuine human connection, it has never been more important to regain our sense of control and serenity. The foundation of our work together is based on restoring this basic human need. I believe the answers lie in the path itself, not just in reaching the destination. Together, we will learn to welcome challenges as opportunities.
I specialize in helping children, families, and adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, family stress, and men's mental health. I work with clients from infants and toddlers through adults, which means I can support the whole family, not just one person. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy, and I won't treat you like a checklist. The work I do is practical, collaborative, and focused on helping you direct your life, not just understand it.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 4 years of experience. I have experience working with clients facing a variety of emotional and life challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, adjustment difficulties, trauma-related concerns, and postpartum disorders. I provide evidence-based psychotherapy that supports emotional wellbeing, healthy coping skills, and personal growth in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment.
My therapeutic approach is integrated and tailored to meet your unique needs. I often draw from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational interviewing.
I'm Yascara Robledo! I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California in 2022 and have been working in the mental health field since 2018. My experience includes providing school-based therapy with Santa Rosa City Schools, where I've primarily supported teens. I am excited to expand my practice to work with adults as well. I'm passionate about supporting as many people as possible and believe that accessible, virtual therapy is a powerful way to help people get the care they need.
