I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in stress and anxiety disorders, mood concerns, and LGBT-issues.
Being a teenager can feel overwhelming. You might be juggling school, work, relationships, family expectations, and trying to understand who you are—all at the same time. Some days, it can feel like too much. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, or feeling lost or disconnected, we can work through it together at your pace. I also help with things like setting boundaries, building self-confidence, navigating identity, and improving your relationship with food and your body.
That inner pressure to be perfect or “have it all together” can be exhausting. Maybe your inner critic is loud, or you feel like you’re constantly falling short. Therapy is a space where you can take a break from that pressure, feel heard without judgment, and start to make sense of what’s going on inside.
I work with women of color who are tired of always being the strong one. If you’re carrying old wounds that still feel fresh, stuck in patterns that don’t even feel like yours, or wondering when it’s finally your turn to be cared for; I’m here for that. You won’t have to code-switch with me. Let’s set down the masks you wear just to move through the day.
In this space, you get to be fully seen--the soft parts, the angry parts, the parts you’ve hidden just to keep the peace. All of you is welcome here. Together, we’ll make room for the messy, the painful, and the hopeful parts of your story, at a pace that feels right for you. Healing doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to start with a space where you’re safe to be real.
I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families to navigate the challenges related to anxiety, depression, communication, and relationship dynamics. Mental health influences every part of our lives—how we think, feel, and connect with others. When something feels off, it can ripple through our well-being and relationships. Therapy offers the space to identify what’s not working and develop tools for balance, clarity, and lasting change through an engaging and supportive process.
Hi, I'm Cassidy, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe that healing starts with a warm, genuine connection. If you’ve been struggling with the weight of depression or anxiety, I’m here to walk alongside you with kindness and understanding. I love combining the 'science' of therapy with human connection, making sure you feel seen and supported while we break down the big stressors into more manageable pieces.
I’m Erin, a licensed therapist who specializes in working with women in their 20s and 30s who want to deepen confidence in themselves and their futures. The origins of the word 'confidence' come from roots that mean, “with trust." If you're uncertain about your direction, are feeling lonely, or are moving through a difficult season like a move or a breakup, therapy can offer a space to transform confusion into understanding and restore that sense of trust in your life.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s degree in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling and over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, families, and couples across a wide range of settings, including dual diagnosis programs, residential treatment centers, county behavioral health clinics, and law-enforcement–affiliated crisis response teams.
My work alongside multiple police departments, providing crisis intervention in high-stress and high-risk situations, has shaped my ability to remain grounded, compassionate, and effective even during life’s most overwhelming moments. I bring that same calm and steady presence into the therapy room.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Palm Springs, CA
Searching for therapists in Palm Springs starts with finding the right fit for what you want to address. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Palm Springs therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or mindfulness-based therapy, and what a first session may include.
Palm Springs has a smaller local therapy market than larger California cities, so the right therapist in Palm Springs, CA may offer in-person sessions, virtual appointments, or both. Virtual care can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in California. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and scheduling fit.
Therapy in Palm Springs can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists in Palm Springs who match your preferences and offer clear availability, so you can review bios, compare options, and book directly when you’re ready. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage available in Palm Springs.
