My name is Ben. I was born and raised on O‘ahu, Hawai'i by immigrant parents in a multicultural, multigenerational household where emotions and mental health were rarely talked about. Growing up, I learned how easy it is to carry stress, pain, and difficult experiences in silence. I also learned how exhausting it can be to appear okay on the outside while struggling on the inside. I help people who feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and unhealthy relationships. Many of the people I work with are tired of putting everyone else's needs before their own, struggling to set boundaries without guilt, and feeling disconnected from who they are beneath the expectations of others. I also help people make sense of how past experiences continue to show up in their present lives, whether that's in their relationships, self-worth, body image, or ability to trust themselves. Together, we will explore the patterns that keep you feeling stuck and work toward creating a stronger sense of self, healthier relationships, and a life that feels more authentic and aligned with who you are. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you've spent much of your life handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and accepted without judgment—a space where you can show up as your authentic self and begin the process of healing, growth, and self-discovery.

My name is Caitlin and I am looking forward to meeting you. I believe clients are the experts of their own lives, and take a very client-centered approach to my work, focusing on empowerment and self-determination at all times. I believe there are as many ways to heal as there are individuals, and enjoy helping each client find their path towards fulfillment in their unique life. My experience has primarily been in schools and working with gender expansive individuals and families. I have also worked in early childhood programs and have a lot of experience supporting families with children from hard places or who have experienced trauma. I believe all people and families have the potential to thrive, and enjoy finding the right supports to help clients reach their goals. As a neurodivergent, queer, adoptive parent myself, I have lived experience in all of these areas and bring this experience and understanding into the therapy space with me. I show up to every session as my authentic self and hope that that creates space for clients to do the same. I am an adoptive parent myself, so I have lived experience in this area as well.

I understand that life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when you’re balancing expectations, responsibilities, and personal goals while trying to maintain your emotional well-being. My goal is to offer a steady, supportive space where you don’t have to carry those experiences alone. In my work, I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe, heard, and understood. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and I work alongside you to help build insight into your thoughts, emotions, and patterns while also focusing on practical ways to create meaningful change in your daily life. Together, we explore what may be contributing to distress or feeling stuck, while also identifying strengths, values, and supports that can help guide your healing and growth. I support clients in developing effective coping skills, improving emotional regulation, strengthening communication in relationships, and navigating life transitions with greater clarity and confidence. Many of the individuals I work with are motivated for change but may feel unsure of where to start or how to move forward. Therapy can provide structure, support, and encouragement as you begin to take steps toward the life you want to build. I aim to meet you where you are, at your own pace, and help you move forward in a way that feels realistic and sustainable. My hope is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected to yourself as you navigate life’s challenges. If you’re looking for a supportive space to gain insight, build coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change, I would be honored to support you on that journey.

I've entered the field of marriage and family therapy after many other careers. I was drawn to this work through my own personal work with therapists I loved and admired. For me, the process is the very "meat" of life. Seeking to release old stuck patterns, seeking to understand, seeking to become all that we can be! We are born to be connected to others, yet we are taught in many cultures to be fierce individuals. We are born into a gender with expectations for what that means from ourselves and others--and our physical gender may not even match our inner experience! It's no wonder that we struggle to find our way through our biographies. Before becoming a therapist I worked for 25 years as a Waldorf educator. I worked with all ages--Kindergarten through high school. This is a developmental education and an artistic one. I am always informed by our developmental tasks through life, well into our final years. I also enjoy stepping into creative, imaginative when clients are open to it, even if just to think about a problem in a new way. My imagination serves me when I am with someone. I have experienced a great deal of trauma and loss, but my experience is never the same as yours. With your help I can step into your experience through my capacity to imagine.

I understand that carrying the burdens of the past or the weight of daily struggles can feel isolating and exhausting. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your unique needs. Together, we can explore the underlying causes of your pain, work to heal emotional wounds, and develop tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control of your life. Whether you’re seeking to rebuild trust in your relationships, learn new ways to communicate, or simply find a safe space to unpack your thoughts and emotions, I’m here to help. Healing is possible, and I’d be honored to walk this journey with you. Let’s find your path forward together.

Trauma overwhelms our ability to process and make sense of what has happened to us. The resulting confusion creates an environment where self-blame, fear, shame, reactivity and feeling responsible for things we cannot possibly control often take hold and start to flourish. I am trained in EMDR, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, exposure therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to provide structured therapy that relieves symptoms of extreme stress and trauma including PTSD. Before I was a therapist, I worked for many years in art and community organizations, and I tend to be a good fit for artists, activists and unconventional thinkers. I care deeply about the health effects of poverty, inequality and oppression, and I value and promote self-determination and self-actualization. I am a long-time foster/adoptive parent in a biracial family; my work is informed by my lived experience as well as my education.

I specialize in working with adults with high-functioning Autism (formerly Asperger's) as well as help clients with addiction concerns. If you or your adult child is on the spectrum and struggling to put words to their emotions, implement real change, or develop friendships, these are very common concerns and I would be happy to meet with you or your child to work through those concerns. I also support clients (ASD or not) with addiction concerns ranging from porn to alcohol and many other drugs.

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in California. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California. ### Will my therapist take insurance? When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary. ### How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue? The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. ### Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters? Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer. ### What happens during the first therapy session? Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the [Grow Therapy Help Center](https://help.growtherapy.com/clients/en/).Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
