Hi! I'm Olivia. I've been in therapy practice for six years, and am grateful for the opportunity to get to know you! As a queer and neurodivergent person, my career as a therapist has always moved in tandem with my commitment to social and economic justice. My work has taken me to settings with folks experiencing homelessness in South Los Angeles; with justice-involved adults in treatment court diversion programs in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood; in young adult shelters for art therapy groups; with low-income immigrant parents of young children; and with teens and young adults with significant trauma histories.
Through all my roles I always commit to centering community and individual strengths that help arm my clients with the tools necessary to repel various types of systemic violence and oppression. I believe that therapy is inherently political because being human is political.
I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Santa Barbara, California. My practice blends both psychological approach as well as eastern wisdom. With a diverse background of professional and life experiences, I bring empathy, warmth, and a solution-focused mindset to my clients. My goal is to help clients alleviate suffering, boost their productivitiy, and enhance well-being.
My clients describe me as relatable, supportive, and easy to open up to. As a first-generation Latina and part of the same generation as many of my clients, I understand the unique pressures young adults face—from family expectations to finding your own path—and I’m here to help you navigate it all with empathy and real-world perspective.
I was always drawn to people who went unseen or unheard. Others told me I had a calm voice and that they could tell me anything. That led to a lifelong study of how people free themselves from their own patterns, later deepened by psychoanalysis and professional work in eating disorders, addiction treatment, and managed care settings like Kaiser.
Hello, I'm Dr. Judy C Kelly, PsyD, LMFT. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with over ten years of experience working with teens, adults and couples. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Southern California (USC), graduate studies at Argosy University and doctorate at California Southern University.
Life can feel overwhelming at times, whether you're dealing with depression, relationship challenges, parenting stress, trauma, or grief. You don't have to navigate it alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered.
I’m Kait, an LCSW of 7 years and social worker for 13. I specialize in anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, and religious trauma. I work with adults who feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, hypervigilance, panic, or chronic stress.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in San Clemente
Searching for therapists in San Clemente starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want help with. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Their profile can also show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
San Clemente has a smaller local therapist market than larger parts of Orange County, so virtual care can expand your options while still keeping your search focused. You may prefer an office near your home, workplace, or school, or you may want the flexibility of virtual sessions that fit your schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like marriage counseling in San Clemente or somatic therapy in Orange County.
Therapy in San Clemente can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
