When you’re the person everyone depends on, it can be easy to lose sight of your own needs. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, burned out, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy offers a space to slow down, take a breath, and reconnect with yourself beneath the responsibilities, expectations, and pressures of everyday life. Together, we’ll create room for healing, self-understanding, and meaningful change that feels sustainable and authentic.

About Me

Hi, I’m Nicole Carroll, MSW, ASW, PPSC. I work with adults throughout California via telehealth, helping clients navigate anxiety, burnout, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the emotional weight of being the person who always holds everything together. My approach is warm, relational, trauma-informed, and collaborative, grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection, curiosity, and self-compassion. I draw from attachment-based therapy, IFS-informed work, mindfulness, somatic practices, and cognitive behavioral strategies to support both insight and practical growth. My goal is to create a space where all parts of you are welcome—including the messy, uncertain, and vulnerable parts that often need the most care.

I support individuals who look put‑together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that healing happens when you feel truly seen and supported. I integrate talk therapy with somatic and mind‑body practices to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and gently shift the patterns that keep you from feeling steady and whole. Together, we build clarity, self‑trust, and a more aligned way of being so you can move through life with greater ease and authenticity.

Life can look successful on the outside while feeling exhausting, confusing, or unfulfilling on the inside. Whether you’re carrying the weight of trauma, navigating a major life transition, grieving a loss, or simply wondering if there’s more to life than surviving and performing, you don’t have to figure it out alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood, supported, and free to show up exactly as you are. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and help you move toward a life that feels more aligned, meaningful, and true to who you are.

Hi, I’m Molly Freihoff, AMFT. I earned my graduate degree from Pepperdine University during a time that deepened my commitment to providing accessible, compassionate mental health care. Since then, I’ve worked with a diverse range of clients, including active-duty service members, veterans, children, teens, adults, and individuals navigating trauma, PTSD, crisis situations, severe and persistent mental illness, and major life transitions. Throughout every setting, one belief has remained constant: people heal best when they feel safe, understood, and supported. I bring warmth, authenticity, and curiosity into each session, creating a space where meaningful growth can happen at your own pace.

Athletes and high performers navigating pressure, identity, and performance-related stress

High achievers experiencing burnout, overwhelm, or a loss of purpose

Hi, I’m Josh. I support teens, adults, couples, and families who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they can’t seem to change. Many of my clients come in feeling frustrated, ashamed, or unsure why certain behaviors or dynamics keep showing up.

My approach is collaborative, steady, and grounded in curiosity, drawing from my experience working across multiple levels of care with eating disorders, substance use, trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. Therapy with me is a space where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward a life that feels more connected and manageable.

Outside of my clinical work, I’m a wife and a proud dog and cat mom. I’m also an advocate for reform in the troubled teen industry, which has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges many young people face and the importance of supporting them with compassion and integrity.
