02 / Virtual care
Sessions focus on what you are experiencing now and how it is affecting your daily life, using the same evidence-based methods used in in-person care. When helpful, family members can also join sessions to support long-term progress. Our telehealth therapists in San Diego work with a wide range of concerns, including:
03 / Virtual care
Telehealth removes the two biggest barriers to consistent mental health care: time and distance. San Diego County is home to more than 3.3 million residents, and an estimated 5 percent live with a serious mental illness, a figure that rises to 8 percent in lower income households.For a population this large, being able to reach a telehealth counselor from any neighborhood, without factoring in traffic or drive time, keeps care accessible in a way in-person scheduling often cannot.

04 / Virtual care
Our telehealth therapists use a range of evidence-based psychotherapy approaches, delivered through secure video sessions.
01
CBT helps you identify and change thought patterns driving anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Its structured, conversation-based format translates naturally to teletherapy, with practice built in between sessions.
02
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) treats trauma and distressing memories. Adapted protocols let clients do this healing work from a private, comfortable space at home.
03
DBT blends cognitive techniques with skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier relationships, all of which translate well to guided video sessions.
04
ACT helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to value-driven action, supporting psychological wellbeing rather than eliminating discomfort. Its conversational style suits telehealth well.
05
CPT is a leading treatment for PTSD that helps you examine and reshape unhelpful beliefs formed after trauma. Its session-by-session structure and worksheets make it especially well-suited to virtual delivery.
06
PE gradually and safely helps you face trauma-related memories and situations you’ve been avoiding, reducing their hold over time. Delivered via telehealth, it allows this sensitive work to happen in a space where you already feel secure.
OUR TEAM
Our therapists bring a range of backgrounds and specialties, but they share one thing in common: a genuine commitment to helping you feel heard and understood. They’re here to guide you through difficult emotions, help you build practical coping skills, and support you in understanding what you’re going through, whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or everyday challenges. Every session is approached with compassion, patience, and respect for your story, because your mental health journey deserves care that’s personal and not the same for everyone.
