I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, certified in Spiritual Guidance and Expressive Art, with a multi-cultural background. I bring a warm, person-centered approach to my practice. I have a passion for working with older adults, especially those navigating life transitions, and I offer therapy in Farsi, Turkish, and English. My focus is on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood.
My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported. I believe mental wellness is an essential part of overall health, and that healing begins by moving from survival to thriving through nervous system regulation, processing past experiences, and strengthening the mind-body connection. Meaningful change and healing happens within a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, authenticity, and collaboration. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, addiction, performance anxiety, work-related stress... or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's demands, we'll work together to build insight, process difficult experiences when appropriate, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I’m Lina, and I’m an ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner specializing in mental health concerns across folks of all ages. My experience in psychiatry began years ago in the inpatient setting, where I worked with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, from mild concerns to more complex and severe symptoms. Over time, my training in psychotherapy and medication management has allowed me to support clients dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, schizophrenia, PTSD, substance use, and ADHD.
I am an LMFT with over 10 years of experience in Mental Health services. I'm a straightforward, goal-oriented therapist who helps individuals, couples, and families navigate challenges with confidence and ease.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Berkeley, CA, and I’ve worked in mental health care since 2012. My background includes community-based work, trauma-informed care, and leadership in training and clinical development. I earned my MSW from NYU and specialize in treating anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I enjoy working with adults navigating changes - career shifts, identity questions, or simply trying to feel more at home in themselves. Clients often say they feel safe, understood, and more at ease after we talk. I believe therapy works best with a good sense of humor - even in hard sessions, there’s room for relief and laughter.

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.
Some seasons of life ask more of you than you ever expected, and somewhere along the way you stopped feeling like yourself. I work with teens, parents, and adults who are moving through anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and the heavy stretches that come with big life transitions. I care deeply about supporting LGBTQIA+ and transgender clients, and families who want to understand and show up for one another a little better. So much of this work is simply remembering that you do not have to carry any of it alone.
Great to meet you!
As a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and overall well-being.

I've been working to help teenagers and young adults over the past 15 years and look forward to supporting you in this journey!
If anxiety keeps you bracing for what's next, if something from your past still shows up when you least expect it, or if you've lost track of who you are outside of everyone else's needs — you're in the right place. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist, I have spent nearly a decade helping people build stronger connections with themselves and those around them. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, or unexpected life changes, you don't have to face them alone. My style is warm and direct: we'll move at a pace that feels safe. Sessions are 100% virtual, so we can work together no matter where you are in California.
