The homepage gives a quick summary. This page gives visitors a more detailed explanation of what each service can look like, who it may be for, and how someone can take the next step.

Individual therapy for adults.

Individual therapy for adults can support clients navigating anxiety, panic, emotional overwhelm, feeling stuck or frozen, self-injurious behavior, relationship stress, identity questions, and personal growth.

Sessions may focus on understanding emotional patterns, building practical tools, strengthening self-awareness, and creating a safer relationship with difficult feelings instead of treating those feelings like something to hide or fight.

• Anxiety, stress, and overthinking
• Panic attacks or panic episodes
• Feeling stuck, frozen, or shut down
• Emotional overwhelm and self-understanding
• Support for safer coping and emotional regulation
• Personal growth, boundaries, and identity

Specialized therapy for adolescents.

Adolescent therapy can be a place for young people to talk about what they are feeling, understand what is happening internally, and build tools for stress, anxiety, self-esteem, shutdown, communication, and emotional regulation.

Parents may reach out because they notice an adolescent seems withdrawn, overwhelmed, reactive, anxious, shut down, or unable to explain what is wrong. The goal is to support the adolescent while also helping caregivers understand what kind of support may be useful.

• School stress and pressure
• Anxiety, panic, or avoidance
• Identity, confidence, and self-esteem
• Emotional shutdown or overwhelm
• Self-injury concerns and safer coping
• Communication with caregivers

Support for relationships and family systems.

Couples and family therapy can create space to slow down difficult patterns, communicate more clearly, and understand what each person is bringing into the relationship.

Sessions can focus on connection, conflict, transitions, boundaries, parenting stress, and building healthier ways to respond to one another.

• Communication and conflict
• Relationship stress
• Family transitions
• Boundaries and connection
• Parenting stress
• Understanding recurring patterns

Parent and caregiver support.

Parent support can help caregivers understand patterns, reduce conflict, and build tools for communication, emotional regulation, consistency, and connection. This can be especially helpful when a child or teen is struggling and the family needs a clearer path forward.

• Caregiver guidance
• Parent-child communication
• Behavior concerns
• Emotional regulation support
• Connection and consistency

Make Life Sing.

A friend of mine who has a gift for interior design once walked into a room, looked around, and said, “I can make this room sing.”

That phrase stayed with me.

She did not mean the room was broken. She meant there was possibility there — something beautiful, meaningful, and alive that could be brought forward with care, attention, and the right support.

Therapy can be framed similarly: not changing someone into someone else, but helping them reconnect with what is already there.

At Mineset Mental Health, the goal is not to “fix” people. The goal is to help people reconnect with what is already there — their strengths, emotions, values, and inner wisdom — while also understanding how their experiences have shaped where they are and the direction they are moving. From there, therapy can help those parts work together in a way that nurtures the life they want to build.

In other words, we can make life sing.

What Is Mental Health?

Mental health is more than feeling good enough, functioning well enough, or moving through life without falling apart. Mental health is about understanding and reshaping the way you relate to yourself — not as your harshest critic, but as someone worth listening to, understanding, and caring for.

It includes honoring the experiences that have shaped you, not necessarily approving of them, but acknowledging that what you have lived through has had an impact on you.

At Mineset Mental Health, we believe mental health is not about becoming perfectly calm, happy, or unaffected by life. It is about listening to yourself with curiosity and compassion so you can respond to life in ways that feel more honest, intentional, and true to who you are.

Mental health is not about becoming someone else.

It is about becoming more connected to yourself, more compassionate toward yourself, and more capable of moving through life as who you are.

How do I get started?

You can call, email, or book online through our secure scheduling page to request a consultation. Email or online booking may be easiest if the clinicians are in session and cannot answer the phone.

The first step is an informal meet-and-greet conversation to see whether the practice feels like a good fit.

Do you offer couples or family therapy?

Yes. Mineset Mental Health offers individual, couples, and family therapy, with specialized support for adolescents. Services depend on clinical fit and availability.

Do you offer online sessions?

Yes. Telehealth is available for clients located in California.

What is the session fee?

The session fee is $200 per hour.

Do you take insurance?

Insurance coverage varies by plan. Bring your insurance information and we’ll review what options may be available. Coverage and reimbursement are determined by your insurer.

What if this is an emergency?

This website is for general information only and is not monitored for emergencies. If you are experiencing a crisis, call 988, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.

When anxiety starts taking up too much room

Anxiety and stress can show up as racing thoughts, constant worry, irritability, trouble sleeping, avoidance, tension in the body, or feeling like you have to stay in control all the time.

Therapy can help you slow things down, understand what your anxiety is trying to protect, and build tools that make life feel more manageable.

• Racing thoughts
• Stress overload
• Avoidance
• Sleep disruption
• Body tension
• Pressure to stay in control

A practical and compassionate way forward

The goal is not to shame anxiety away. The goal is to understand it, learn from it, and practice new responses so anxiety no longer has to run the whole show.

Panic can feel scary, confusing, and exhausting

Panic may show up as a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, shaking, chest tightness, fear of losing control, or fear that something is seriously wrong.

Even when panic is not dangerous, it can feel very real in the moment. Therapy can help you understand what is happening in the body and learn ways to move through panic with more confidence.

• Racing heart
• Shortness of breath
• Fear of losing control
• Avoiding places or situations
• Feeling unsafe in your own body

Learning to respond instead of fear the symptoms

Panic work often includes education, grounding tools, nervous system skills, and exploring patterns that may be keeping the fear cycle going.

You deserve support without shame

Self-injurious behavior can be difficult to talk about, especially when shame, fear, or judgment have been part of the experience.

Therapy can create space to understand what the behavior has been helping you survive, while building safer tools for distress, communication, and emotional regulation.

• Reducing shame
• Safety planning
• Distress tolerance
• Emotional regulation
• Communication tools

For immediate danger

This website is not for emergencies. If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, call 988, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.

Sometimes the hardest part is getting unstuck

Feeling stuck can look like avoidance, numbness, indecision, low motivation, emotional shutdown, or knowing what you want to do but feeling unable to start.

Therapy can help you understand what is keeping you frozen and create small, realistic steps toward movement.

• Numbness
• Avoidance
• Indecision
• Shutdown
• Low motivation
• Difficulty starting

Small steps still count

The work is not about forcing yourself forward. It is about understanding the stuck place, reducing pressure, and finding a pace that feels possible.

When everything feels like too much

Overwhelm can make everyday tasks feel impossible. Shutdown can make it hard to feel, speak, decide, or connect.

Therapy can help you notice early warning signs, understand your nervous system, and build tools that support regulation before things become too much.

• Feeling flooded
• Emotional exhaustion
• Numbness
• Difficulty communicating
• Needing to withdraw
• Trouble making decisions

Building a gentler relationship with your limits

This work can include grounding skills, boundaries, emotional awareness, self-compassion, and strategies for recovering after high-stress moments.

Mental health is more than mental illness

Therapy does not have to begin only when everything falls apart. It can also be a place for reflection, growth, support, and learning how to be more fully yourself.

Emotional wellness work may focus on self-understanding, relationships, boundaries, identity, confidence, and building a life that feels more aligned.

• Self-understanding
• Confidence
• Boundaries
• Relationships
• Identity
• Personal growth

Being you is worth protecting

This work is grounded in the idea that emotions are information, not enemies. Therapy can help you listen to yourself with more clarity and compassion.
