Psychologist

I've spent much of my career working in hospital-based and outpatient settings using evidenced-based CBT and DBT approaches, relational/solution-focused approaches, and life coaching. In my practice, I offer the opportunity to help people learn to process and better understand their relationship with their thoughts, feelings (emotions and physiology), and behaviors. My communication style is calm, empathetic, and personable, and my hope is that my clients can feel comfortable sharing anything.

Rachel Kwon

Therapist

Virtual • California


You often feel misunderstood or have been told you're "too much," and deep down, you long to be truly seen and known. Family and societal systems may have taught you to shrink yourself to fit in or please others, making you highly skilled at masking your true self. You're intuitive, creative, and carry a rich inner world. Still, it can feel like you weren’t dealt the best hand in life, leaving you stuck, wondering if anyone else could ever truly relate. After spending so long prioritizing others’ needs, you're finally ready to cultivate a vibrant, purposeful life that’s fully your own.

Howard Kaplan

Howard Kaplan

Psychologist

Virtual • California


I am a psychotherapist and clinical supervisor with 35 years of experience. I am a caring and dedicated therapist who often goes the extra mile when it will assist a client. I highly value creative and artistic expression, and I help my clients tap into their strengths and passions. I am able to do this, in part, based on my rich background in humanities and the arts (literature and theatre, expository and creative writing, acting and directing, and music: creative fields in which I've directly participated and/or taught at the undergraduate and graduate level). Clients I work with especially well are curious, introspective, willing to dig deep, and interested in becoming more compassionate towards themselves and others. They aren't afraid to look at their feelings in the here-and-now of the therapeutic relationship.

Having worked in highly diverse settings and at multiple levels of care, (often with highly undeprivileged and stigmatized client, such as adolescent and sex offenders, inner-city alcoholics and substance abusers, and severely mentally-ill patients in psychiatric civil commitment ) I am able to help with a wide range of concerns, but some areas in which I am particularly skilled are major depression, bipolar disorder, adult ADHD, addictions, impulsive, compulsive, or excessively inhibited behavior, relationship issues, life crises, and the search for personal meaning.

I believe therapy works best when people feel comfortable being themselves. I aim to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can talk openly about what they’re going through. Outside of therapy I enjoy gardening, creating art, practicing mindfulness, and spending time with my kids and pets, which all help keep me grounded and present.

I believe therapy is a conversation about where you want to go and what stands in your way. Each individual is seen through their potential, not their problems. I am a compassionate listener and a dedicated companion along your path to healing. It's important to create a space where we can confront all obstacles and explore all possibilities together.
