Find a Therapist

Dr. Michael Johnson

My professional experience includes being an embedded psychologist in a U.S. Special Ops squadron on Europe and Power 5 Conference NCAA university athletic departments. I have learned that most men benefit from cognitive processing and cognitive-behavioural approaches, with a touch of humanism. I have experience working with men who are confronting relationship issues, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression.

Kennedy’s compassion for helping individuals improve their quality of life derives from his own personal and cultural experiences. Kennedy’s focus is allowing individuals to recognize irrational or negative thoughts/beliefs (Cognitive Distortions), and how they impact emotions such as anxiety or depression, which subsequently manifest into maladaptive behaviors. Kennedy provides coping strategies to decrease and manage negative thinking patterns through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-Cognitive Restructuring, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) which teaches Emotional Regulation and Interpersonal Effectiveness skills.

Micheal Franklin

I am Micheal Franklin with Franklin and Kiai Counseling Services, PLLC where we believe that nobody is left behind and we want our clients to become everything that are capable of becoming. I believe that since we were all children at once that we’re a product of the environment in which we were raised. Many times the things that we’re having difficulty facing is related to our childhood and I would like to have the opportunity to help you overcome those obstacles in your life so you can freely move forward and find happiness within yourself.

Felix Vara

I specialize in helping men manage anxiety, infidelity, couple’s issues, trauma, and PTSD. I mainly use Solution-Focused Therapy as an approach, a model that focuses on strengths, resilience, and achieving goals. I am also EMDR trained. EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an effective therapy for healing trauma, stress, and negative patterns. Using guided eye movements, it helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. I also sub-specialize in those in the first responder profession.

Dr. Aileen Fullchange

My approach to therapy has its foundation in strengths-based interventions that create emotional safety and facilitate insight and transformation. I draw from a variety of orientations, including client-centered, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, positive psychology, mindfulness, and body-based therapies, such as Trauma Sensitive Yoga. I take an ecological approach to therapy, considering each person’s unique history, experiences, and communities.

Daniel Saroni

Daniel facilitates learning and insight building around factors contributing to mood difficulty and unhealthy behaviors. Together with his clients, he hopes to explore with how their trauma, questions about identity or purpose, communication and boundaries, and negative or shameful beliefs are impacting their moods, relationships, and lives. He utilizes expressive interventions and eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing to encourage the brain’s innate tendency towards improvement and health.

Rollie Elizondo

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working in inpatient and outpatient settings with adults and teens.  In my outpatient practice, I focus on transitions we experience at all life stages, grief/loss, relationship issues, stress, anxiety, depression and related problems. My approach is client-centered and forefronts your unique experience, making our work very collaborative. My role is to be an objective, accepting and reflective person that welcomes you to really examine all aspects of yourself and your existence in the world. I provide a safe space to increase your openness to life experiences, and confront barriers to develop insight-driven movement.

Dr. Macy Wilson

The majority of my research and practice has centered around issues with masculinity, and I am especially passionate about providing services to men of color. I understand being in therapy can be difficult – it’s you being vulnerable, meeting a new person, breaking cultural and societal barriers, and getting to know parts of yourself that you’d maybe intentionally turned away from. My goal as a psychologist is to connect with, walk beside, and consistently challenge you in the goals you have set for yourself… and to help you identify a place to start when the goal may not be clear yet.

Kyle Bender

“The world is changing at a rate faster than our ability to adapt to that change.” – Astro Teller

If this is true, no wonder you’re frustrated, exhausted, getting stuck in numbing and escaping behaviors, and wondering if this is all there is to modern life. The demands of life (relationships, marriage, parenting, career, personal health, mental health) are more than you can handle and you often are just trying to make it to the end of the day.

I specialize in working with men and helping them get relief from everyday demands, so they can go deep in their most important relationships.

Sabrina Smith

I work with clients who may be struggling with generalized anxiety, perfectionism, a loss of self, and low self-confidence. My “good fit” client may have experienced attachment trauma, struggle in relationships (familial, romantic, and platonic), and identify as highly sensitive.

Robyn Flores

The majority of my experience so far in my career as a therapist has been in trauma, substance use recovery, eating disorder relapse prevention, body image and sex, partnerships and sexual concerns, as well as working with couples, families, and parenting issues. In this experience, especially working with eating disorders and substance use recovery, I have found that what seems to be missing with the recovery process is a sexual recovery component. I feel that who I am, my authenticity, my message, and showing my humanness sets me apart from many therapists trained to be a blank slate for their clients. The work we do in session does not end there and it is not confined to the hour that I actually see them each week.

Josh Berger

Life is full of storms. The ebbs and flows they bring can leave anyone feeling shipwrecked. My role as a counselor is a grounding one: to equip and enable you to find light through the darkness. I work with men and women that have experienced depressions, anger, or past hurts that are causing their futures to look bleak.
