Psychologist

Virtual • Fontana, CA


Hi, I'm Dr. Mark Schnose, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate depression, marital challenges, trauma, and PTSD. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, grief, life transitions, or relationship conflicts, I am here to offer the highest level of professional care. I believe a good psychologist is not called to see through people, but rather, called to see people through their darkest moments. Working with teens, adults, and seniors, I strive to provide the empathetic support you need to heal and grow.

Matthew Tapia

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m Matthew “Matt” Tapia, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) offering online therapy in Arizona and California. I specialize in neurodivergent-affirming care for autistic people and people with ADHD. I also help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship concerns, and caregiver stress.


If daily demands leave you overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure where to begin, we can start with what matters most to you. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative, with room to explore your experiences and develop skills you can use in everyday life.


I work with children, teens, adults, and families. I hold a Master of Arts from Santa Clara University and am also a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). My background in family therapy and behavioral science helps me understand how emotions, relationships, daily routines, and your environment influence one another.


Together, we can work on managing strong emotions, communicating your needs, strengthening relationships, and creating routines that fit your life. Therapy respects your communication preferences, sensory needs, strengths, and personal goals.


All sessions take place through secure telehealth. I accept insurance through Headway, where you can check your coverage and view available appointments.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, or a significant life transition? Perhaps you’re noticing recurring patterns in your relationships, struggling with self-criticism, or feeling disconnected from yourself despite your efforts to move forward. Genuine connection, recognition, and attunement are central to my approach to therapy. I believe meaningful change develops through a collaborative relationship in which you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected.

I’m Erica, a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), bringing over 20 years of experience in mental health treatment and wellness, including extensive clinical work in inpatient psychiatric care, intensive outpatient treatment, and psychotherapy. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. As a former athlete, I also work with athletes facing performance anxiety, perfectionism, and identity concerns. I welcome individuals seeking practical strategies for managing symptoms, as well as those interested in developing a deeper understanding of their emotional experiences, relationships, and sense of self. I provide online psychotherapy throughout California, including Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area, Orange County, and San Diego. My work integrates evidence-based treatment, relational attunement, and a whole-person perspective, with care tailored to your individual needs, circumstances, and goals.

Nicole Lopez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a dedicated mental health professional who supports children and adults through life’s challenges. I currently provide individual therapy only and do not offer couples counseling. My background in behavioral health and social services, along with hands-on community experience, has shaped my practical, compassionate, and solution-focused approach.

I have worked with individuals involved in the justice system, people living with serious mental illness, children in foster care, and families navigating behavioral or developmental concerns. My experience includes case management, crisis support, employment readiness, behavioral coaching, and coordinating care with medical providers, mental health facilities, and community programs to ensure consistent, long-term support.

I help clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, behavioral challenges in children and teens, parenting and co-parenting concerns, and reintegration after legal involvement. My approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I believe everyone has resilience and the ability to grow with the right support.

My style is warm, honest, and structured. I value accountability while always leading with empathy and respect. I focus on building coping skills, improving communication, setting clear goals, and developing practical strategies that support emotional balance and independence.

For over 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals untangle the weight of trauma, stress, and life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Whether you’re feeling on edge, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, therapy can be a place to finally exhale.
