Psychologist

Hello,

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist (which means I have a doctorate and I do talk therapy, no medication assessment or prescribing) that loves working with women that are wanting to recover from disordered eating, body image challenges, or learning to travel with grief.

I work with you to find the right balance of radical acceptance, meeting you where you are at, with compassion, along with encouraging you to change and grow, where you would like to change and grow.

Matthew Darst

Matthew Darst

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm Matt Darst, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker trained at the University of Southern California, with advanced training in military and veteran clinical social work. I work with adults who are motivated to change but feel stuck — navigating trauma, addiction, mood disorders, OCD, grief, or the kind of cumulative pressure that quietly builds until something gives.

My clients tend to be high-functioning people who look fine from the outside but are carrying more than they let on. That includes professionals managing stress and burnout, veterans and first responders, and anyone who's ready to do honest, purposeful work — regardless of background or title.

I bring a direct, warm style grounded in kind accountability. I'm not here to tell you what you want to hear. I'm here to help you move.

Dr. Kay Hubbard

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Naturopathic Doctor with over five years of experience providing compassionate, holistic care through telehealth. My journey into healthcare began organically—people naturally sought me out for emotional and energetic support, and I wanted to serve them with integrity and expertise. I pursued my clinical doctorate in naturopathic medicine to honor that calling, then specialized in mental health through my counseling training because supporting emotional wellness has always been my deepest passion.

I work primarily with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, and ancestral trauma. Many of my clients are seeking a provider who understands the whole person—someone who can hold space for both the clinical symptoms and the deeper, more nuanced aspects of their experience. This includes intuition, synchronicities, and other gifts that don't always fit neatly into conventional frameworks. If you've ever felt hesitant to share certain parts of your inner world with a therapist, I want you to know that all of you is welcome here.

When I'm not working, you'll find me traveling and exploring new places, or at home with my cat, Rumi.

Christine Lam

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello I’m Christine Lam, a licensed clinical counselor based in California. I specialize in helping individuals better understand themselves, navigate life’s challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. One phrase you’ll often hear me say in therapy is, “You are the expert on your own life.” By that, I mean that you bring the lived experiences, insights, and wisdom that come from being you. My role is not to tell you who you are or what you should do, but to serve as a collaborative guide - helping you make sense of your experiences, emotions, and patterns in a space free from judgment, expectations, or performance. My goal is to create an environment where you feel fully seen, understood, and welcomed exactly as you are.
