Hello, my name is Keren Cabrera I am a bilingual and first generation Honduran American Marriage and Family Therapist who is based in California, born and raised in Los Angeles area. I received my masters at Pepperdine University and have been practicing therapy for the past 6 years. Over the past couple of years I have specialized in working with young and older adults from 18-70 years dealing with depression, anxiety and past traumas such as sexual, physical and emotional abuse. As a Latina therapist, my goal in each session is for each client to feel supported, validated and safe; acknowledging that everyone has a unique story and experience.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Los Angeles, CA


My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I pull from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you understand patterns in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, but I also lean into a humanistic style, meaning I see you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis or a set of symptoms.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe, judgment-free space where you can show up as you are. Whether we’re exploring your relationships, working through anxiety or depression, or identifying what really matters to you, my goal is to support your growth with curiosity, care, and clarity.

I also value realness, I’ll challenge you when it’s helpful, offer insight when you're stuck, and celebrate the progress you might overlook. You're the expert on your life; I’m here to help you reconnect with that truth and build the kind of change that lasts.

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.

I have worked with adolescents, adults, and older adults as they work through life's challenges. I am client-centered with a trauma-informed lens, often leaving clients feeling heard, validated, and empowered to continue reaching their goals.

As someone who has worked as a clinician embedded in a law enforcement agency, I am acutely aware of the realities of first responders and the impact the work can have on the individual and their relationships.

The journey to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line for me—I arrived here after walking many different paths in my life. For me, being a therapist isn’t about being an expert who sits above you. It’s about someone you can feel warm with, open with, and safe around.

Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, disconnected, or searching for greater meaning and direction. I work with adults who want to understand themselves more deeply and move toward a life that feels more purposeful and aligned. People often find their way to me while navigating anxiety, depression, grief, major life transitions, or deeper questions about identity and purpose.

As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I offer sessions in both English and Spanish, and I'm committed to creating a space where you feel genuinely respected, understood, and at home.

Therapist

You give and give to others yet still end up feeling unseen or unappreciated? Maybe you're the person everyone can count on...the one who keeps the peace, anticipates what others need, and says "yes" even when you really want to say "no." From the outside, you may seem caring and capable. Inside, you might feel exhausted, anxious, or quietly resentful. You may panic when someone is disappointed in you, second-guess your decision to say "no", or wonder whether you're asking for too much. In therapy, we'll notice what happens when you want to speak up, set a limit, or choose yourself: but feel pulled to take care of everyone else.
