I'm Mary, and I want you to know that whatever's bringing you here — anxiety that won't quiet down, a relationship that's fraying, grief you can't shake, or patterns you keep repeating despite your best efforts — you don't have to figure it out alone. I've worked with individuals, couples, families, and teens facing some of life's hardest chapters, and I genuinely believe that the right support at the right time changes everything.

I'm California-licensed and offer telehealth sessions statewide, which means flexible, private care from wherever you're most comfortable. I accept Aetna, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, and Carelon Behavioral Health, and I'm happy to help you understand your benefits before your first session.

Xiao Fu

Xiao Fu

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


My path into psychiatry is both professional and personal. I moved to the U.S. alone at 17 while navigating complex PTSD and periods of misdiagnosis, which shaped how I understand mental health today. I began with a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Nankai University, then trained as a nurse and nurse practitioner at Charles R. Drew University and Purdue University.

Over the past 7 years, I’ve worked across medical and mental health settings, developing an approach that balances clinical precision with individualized care. I specialize in anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and complex PTSD, particularly for individuals who feel stuck or haven’t found relief in traditional treatment.

I’m licensed in California, Virginia, New York, Washington, and Oregon, and provide care via telehealth.

Hi! I'm Alison and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Starting therapy can be nerve racking and even scary to some. I work with children and adults navigating through life changes, anxiety, depression and burnout. I've been a therapist for 10 years and in the last year I shifted my focus to working with parents struggling with burnout and anxiety. I find that these are the most common stressors affecting people in their day to day tasks and relationships. Regardless of what brings you here, I'd like for us to connect and help you reach your goals.
