Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Petaluma, CA

Hi, I'm Fanta—yes, like the soda (and yes, there's a story behind it, but of course it has nothing to do with soda!). With nearly 20 years in the mental health field and over a decade providing therapy, I've walked alongside children, families, couples, and adults as they’ve faced some of life’s toughest moments.

I truly believe that “the struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow.” Life brings challenges, but how we respond to them shapes our path forward. I’ve been there too, and I know how important it is to feel supported as you find your way through.

My goal is to work with you—not for you or around you, but with you—as you build the tools and confidence to navigate whatever life throws your way. We’ll work together to recognize negative thought patterns, build self-compassion, and strengthen your connection with yourself and those around you.

More than anything, I’m here to create a space that feels safe, empathetic, and judgment-free. A space where you can be fully you, speak your truth, and start to heal.

Maybe what aches most is not the change itself, but the fear that someone you love is slipping out of reach — even if that someone is you. Everything feels different, yet somehow the same. One minute you are putting on pajamas, and the next you are spiraling because it is the first moment of quiet you have had all day. There is this gut feeling that your heart can no longer be bound with band-aids, but soul-searching is a lot before the alarm goes off tomorrow. You do not have to make sense of it all alone at midnight — that is what I am here for.

Hi, I'm Scarlett LMFT, and I'm glad you're here. I work with individuals navigating all sorts of different life challenges.

Together, we'll focus on helping you feel more grounded, confident and connected in your life. I also have experience supporting women navigating fertility, IVF and the transition to motherhood.

I believe that the client, not the therapist, is the expert in their own life. My goal is to support and guide my clients see their strengths, increase self-awareness, and develop new skills to help them live a more satisfying life and build healthier relationships.

I have a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field working with youth and adults in clinical, research, and forensic settings. I have experience in treating a wide range of mental health problems and severity. I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, relationship problems, and family conflict.

Psychotherapy provided to adults seeking support. In treatment,we can create/reach goals to cope successfully while decreasing symptoms of anxiety/depression. Both short-term and long-term assistance available.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 25+ years experience working within the public health sector, I successfully treated individuals with mood disorders, anxiety, and psychosis. My approach is grounded in The Strengths Based Treatment Model as I believe the best way to heal is by drawing upon the inherent strengths we already possess. My years of management experience has also prepared me to address work/life balance, job-related stress and burnout.
