Therapist

Virtual • California


I didn’t take a conventional route to get here. Discovering my life’s work included a career change, two graduate programs, and countless paths less taken. I’m particularly interested in helping people explore their trauma and find self-acceptance. I believe everyone – at every age – deserves safe, quality mental health care. I love to spend my down time doing Pilates, exploring flea markets, and trying new recipes. I look forward to supporting you on your mental health journey!

Jessica Anderson

Jessica Anderson

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello, I’m Jessica Anderson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s Degree in Child Development from Sarah Lawrence College and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from New York University. Since 2004, I’ve had the privilege of working in many different settings—community-based organizations, hospitals supporting children and adults, and now private practice. These experiences have given me the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life, each facing unique challenges and strengths.

In my practice, I approach every individual with curiosity, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. I believe we all have an innate ability to heal, grow, and create change. Sometimes, though, life’s stressors—whether loss, trauma, transitions, or biological factors—can make that feel out of reach. My role is to provide support and guidance as you navigate those moments, helping you reconnect with your resilience and sense of self.

Therapy, to me, is a space for exploration and growth—a place to make sense of your experiences and learn new ways of being. I understand that being human can be complicated: we’re constantly figuring out how to live in a world that’s both beautiful and unpredictable, how to love deeply, face pain, and keep moving forward.

I work with children, adults, individuals, and couples. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, as well as supporting those in the medical field, military personnel, and individuals or couples navigating the perinatal and postpartum experience.

Stephen Magill

Therapist

Virtual • Santa Rosa, CA


Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, or a parent hoping to support your child through a difficult season? I specialize in supporting teens, adults, couples, and families through life changes, relationship concerns, and emotional challenges. My primary focus is working with teens and individual adults who want support without judgment. I also work with children and families, drawing on nearly 15 years of experience in private practice, residential and psychiatric care, and family courts. I believe therapy works best when we build trust, listen closely, and focus on what matters to you.
