Therapist

You may be the one everyone relies on, the strong one who keeps moving forward even when things feel overwhelming. But you don’t have to carry everything on your own.

I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, burnout, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who appear to have it all together on the outside but feel exhausted, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. Therapy can be a place where you finally slow down, reflect, and focus on your own needs.

Kaycie Crossley

Kaycie Crossley

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a licensed therapist with a background in working with adults navigating anxiety, relationship dynamics, and the long term impact of growing up in environments where emotional needs were not consistently met. My work is informed by attachment theory, neuroscience, and relational psychotherapy.

Clients often come to me when they feel stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but cannot seem to shift in real life. This might look like overthinking, people pleasing, difficulty trusting themselves, or repeating the same relationship dynamics despite wanting something different.

I have a particular interest in helping clients develop self-trust, emotional clarity, and a stronger sense of identity. My approach is grounded, direct, and collaborative. I am not a blank slate therapist. I am engaged, thoughtful, and willing to say the thing that helps you see yourself more clearly.

Austin Chavira

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 8 years of experience in behavioral and mental health, including 2.5 years providing clinical therapy. I’ve worked with people from a wide range of backgrounds and with concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, anger, communication difficulties, social skills, relationship challenges, life transitions, and feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

I have a particular interest in working with men and creating a space where they can talk openly about emotions, relationships, stress, identity, confidence, and the pressures that can come with trying to handle everything on their own. At the same time, I enjoy working with anyone who connects with my approach and is looking for a therapist who is supportive, honest, and practical.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy, and you won’t be judged for where you are. Whether you’re dealing with a specific problem or simply have a sense that something needs to change, I’ll meet you where you are. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, identify what may be holding you back, and develop practical tools for creating meaningful change in your life and relationships.

Scott Lassiter

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Orange County, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse/addiction, and trauma.

My communication style is calm, accommodating, and reassuring. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment.

I decided to become a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. Whether it was as an epidemiologist working with the physically ill, mentoring high school students in relational and life decisions, or being a loyal friend, I have always naturally been drawn to helping people through difficult times. Now, as a therapist, I get to enjoy seeing people realize their full potential, heal from their pain, and identify and begin working toward a new future of hope for themselves.
