Hi there! I’m Dajana Moore, RDN, CDCES, a bilingual Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist passionate about helping you feel confident, supported, and empowered as you navigate diabetes, hormonal health, and chronic disease management. My goal is to help you build sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle while giving you the knowledge and tools to take control of your health. My passion for nutrition comes from helping people feel more confident in managing their health through education, compassion, and personalized care. With years of experience providing both one-on-one and group diabetes education, I understand that lasting behavior change doesn’t happen overnight. My approach is patient centered, supportive, and collaborative, meeting you where you are and helping you make meaningful progress without judgment or pressure. I was born and raised in Costa Rica, where the values of family, community, and compassion shaped my approach to supporting others. As a bilingual professional, I am committed to providing culturally responsive care and education. I believe nutrition should feel practical, empowering, and personalized. Rather than focusing on perfection, I work alongside you to create realistic habits that support your long term health and fit into your everyday life. My areas of specialty include diabetes, prediabetes, insulin resistance, hormonal health, chronic disease management, and women’s health. Using evidence based nutrition guidance, motivational interviewing, and a coaching approach, I tailor each session to your unique goals, preferences, and experiences. Together, we’ll focus on building confidence, strengthening self management skills, improving medication adherence when appropriate, and creating sustainable lifestyle changes that help you feel your best. As a bilingual provider fluent in English and Spanish, I’m passionate about making nutrition education accessible, culturally responsive, and welcoming for every client. I strive to create a supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your health journey. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, staying active, and continuing to learn new ways to better support my clients. I’m excited to partner with you and help you discover that managing your health can feel achievable, sustainable, and tailored to your unique needs. Ready to start?

Hello! I'm Cecilia Cruz, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who helps people manage prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, heart health, and women's health while keeping the cultural foods they love on the table. I offer sessions in English and Spanish. My approach is rooted in the belief that food is medicine. I don't label foods as "good" or "bad," because those labels lead to shame and guilt. Before joining Diabetes Digital, I provided nutrition support to vulnerable and underserved communities in San Francisco through nonprofit work. As a Mexican American dietitian, I honor each person's culture and experience, and I'll guide you toward sustainable health goals that fit your life. Ready to start?

Have you ever felt like managing your health is a full-time job—especially when you’re juggling a million other things? Between conflicting nutrition advice, ever-changing health goals, and just getting dinner on the table, it’s a lot. I get it—because I’ve been there too. I’m Jessica, a Registered Dietitian, mom of two, and someone who’s been offering nutrition counseling since 2007. My interest in nutrition started in high school when I struggled with binge eating, diet culture, and a difficult relationship with my body. Over the years, my personal experiences—living with ADHD, navigating thyroid and autoimmune conditions, and managing preeclampsia and high blood sugar during pregnancy—have only deepened my empathy and shaped the way I support others. I specialize in helping people simplify food—whether that’s meal planning, grocery shopping, or creating sustainable routines that support your health without taking over your life. I’ve worked across private practice, public health, behavioral health, fitness resorts, and food service programs—but what I love most is working one-on-one with clients to find practical, personalized strategies that actually stick. These days, I work with people managing conditions like prediabetes, PCOS, gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol—especially those who feel overwhelmed by diet trends or unsure how to start. I offer neurodivergent-affirming care and have a special passion for supporting fellow ADHDers in developing realistic nutrition routines that meet them where they are. If you’re looking for an approach grounded in intuitive eating, weight-inclusive care, and compassion, you’re in the right place. I believe food should be a source of nourishment—not stress—and that everyone deserves to feel good in their body without chasing unrealistic ideals. With a focus on intuitive eating, my goal is to help clients build peace with food and their bodies, steering them away from the frustrations of yo-yo dieting and food-related mental struggles. I’m committed to guiding clients toward healthier, sustainable habits that allow them to enjoy food and meet their health goals. More about me: I love spending time with family and exploring new things that give a fun, dopamine-kick; be it starting a garden, playing a new sport, painting, thrifting, etc. When I’m not working, I’m chasing my two high-energy kids, experimenting in the kitchen or reading fantasy books on my kindle!What to expect: Sessions are collaborative, judgment-free, and tailored to your real life. You’ll leave with a plan that feels doable—even on the busiest days. Ready to start? Book a visit directly at https://diabetesdigital.co/start.

As a licensed psychologist, I provide individual therapy for a range of concerns, including relationship stress, life transitions, depression, anxiety, parentification, and trauma. I work from a stance of openness and sincerity and strive to create a comfortable, collaborative environment in which clients feel understood and supported. My therapeutic style is flexible and tailored to each client’s unique concerns and lived experience. My approach is integrative and draws from psychodynamic theory, emotion-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based practices, sensorimotor psychotherapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am EMDR trained and incorporate EMDR thoughtfully when clinically appropriate. I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from The George Washington University, completed my APA-approved internship at Harvard Medical School, and fulfilled my postdoctoral fellowship at Tufts University. I have over 18 years of clinical experience working with adults across a range of settings. Previously, I served as Assistant Director of Counseling at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and as a staff psychologist at Tufts University’s Counseling and Mental Health Services in Medford, Massachusetts. I have also worked as a clinician and researcher at UC San Diego Medical Center, including within an Early Psychosis Treatment Center. Having immigrated from Argentina as a child, I am bicultural and bilingual in English and Spanish.

Are you interested in a type of counseling that is practical, goal-oriented, and short-term? Want to figure out what's causing you struggle and learn and practice tools to make it better? Tired of endless talk therapy without any change? I use an approach to counseling called TEAM-CBT that was developed by David Burns, MD, at Stanford. Clients who are a good fit are highly motivated to make changes in their life, willing to set specific goals to recover from their struggles, and ready to do the needed work. Good treatment is much more than just venting! I aspire to teach my clients to become their own therapist. Contact me to find out if we're a good fit to work together.

I primarily work with college students, adults and couples with a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, parenting, relational and emotional issues, infidelity, childhood abuse, gender and sexual identity, and religious and spiritual issues. I also work with people who feel stuck, aimless, or desire to possess more purpose and meaning in their lives. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer psychological assessment services for such issues as ADHD Evaluation, diagnostic clarification, and learning disorders.

It may often feel like you’ve tried everything but nothing works, at least not long term. You find yourself worrying and often struggle with things that feel outside of your control. There is no shame in needing additional support. During our sessions we are processing emotions, identifying core beliefs, and working through action steps. These action steps are typically completed during session with the goal of increased client functioning over multiple domains. I support my clients to have the ability to independently manage their mental health symptoms, this includes knowing how to communicate when they need additional support from trusted individuals.

I have done extensive work with adolescents and college age young adults in a variety of settings. Some of the areas that I have worked with others are anxiety, depression, anger, addiction, social anxiety, low self-esteem/self-worth, raising emotional vocabulary & intelligence,etc. If you feel that I may be a good fit for you as a therapist then please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting with you and speaking with you soon. Ethan Messer

I strongly believe in a collaborative approach, building trust, supporting you where you are at and actively listening to your needs. I never judge and I will work with you to develop the best treatment plan that helps you meet your goals. I use a variety of techniques that include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), solution-focused, mindfulness, strength-based, person-centered, motivational interviewing, and coaching.

My training included working in residential and outpatient settings with individuals from a variety of backgrounds and clinical presentations. This included crisis houses, a couples and family clinic, intensive outpatient program, and a dual diagnostic residential treatment facility for adults and adolescents. I furthered my training experience in the administration of neurocognitive and psychological assessments for diagnostic clarification of mood disorders, learning disabilities, cognitive impairment, and personality disorders. Throughout my training, I also helped to develop treatment programming and modules as well as provided psychoeducation seminars and/ or outreach services in the community. My therapy style is both integrative and collaborative. I am passionate about working with individuals who are looking for both solutions and insight into their conflicts and struggles to help them achieve understanding and balance in their lives. I utilize psychoanalytic foundations of treatment with combined interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help assist patients in understanding the patterns and conflicts that keep them from living a more balanced life. I enjoy working with patients who are adjusting to new situations (i.e. starting college, recent move, newly married, recent break up) and the complicated emotions surrounding grief and loss. I have a particular interest in working with the Asian American / Pacific Islander community as cultural sensitivity and competency inhibits many from seeking mental health care.

Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.

However, accessing this power can be an overwhelming task that may require support. Allow me to be an unbiased, compassionate and caring partner in your journey. I use the elements of Brainspotting, Parts Work, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Psychodynamic therapy and other interventions to help you achieve your goals. I have over 10 years of experience working with college students, young professionals, justice involved teens/adults, current/former foster youth and other adults. I help clients unlock their true potential and triumph over issues of low self-esteem, impostor syndrome, depression, anxiety, trauma, difficult life transitions, relationship issues and more. I believe in the collaborative relationship between client and therapist. Developing a strong therapeutic relationship is important to me and it's something that I take pride in doing well.

I directly relate to the first-hand struggles of Black women, and especially Black mothers, face every day. I have worked as a social worker for over a decade and, after years of supporting clients at various hospitals and nonprofits, am redirecting my talent and experience to where my passion truly resides: my own community. As a mother to 2 vibrant, empowered girls, I also understand how necessary it is to build ourselves up higher than the world could ever tear us down. Struggling with infertility for several years, I not only understand the needs of women on their journey to motherhood, I experienced it firsthand. My guiding principle is to support my clients from a place of nuanced cultural understanding, and in doing so, I acknowledge that sometimes you can only be guided down a path by someone who’s been in your shoes. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.

Welcome! Im Shayda- Healing from trauma isn't something we're meant to do alone. When we safely reconnect with our nervous system with the support of an attuned therapist, therapy can be deeply powerful. I use trauma therapies like EMDR, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing to help you process pain and find lasting relief. I work with adults healing from PTSD, C-PTSD, childhood trauma, and attachment wounds. I also support survivors of sexual assault, toxic relationships, and those facing depression, anxiety, panic, or suicidal thoughts. Through this work, we can reprocess the past and create lasting healing and wholeness in your life. As a feminist, trauma-informed therapist, I recognize how systems of oppression, inequality, and societal expectations shape our experiences and impact our well-being. I offer culturally sensitive care that honors your lived experience - creating a space where you feel truly seen, valued, and understood. My priority is building safety and trust. I take the time to get to know you, bringing presence, compassion, attunement, and authenticity to our work. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward creating the life you envision and deserve.

Hello and welcome. In practicing psychotherapy for over 20 years, I have placed great value in establishing meaningful and secure connections with my patients that have served in healing and being free from deeply held emotional, psychological, and relational wounds. I value the journey of exploring and understanding together so as to help patients reach and nurture a healthy and authentic sense of self; in developing a kinder relationship to and greater connectedness to ones emotional life and self worth; in developing healthier relationships to others; and ultimately securing a sense of overall satisfaction and well being, inside and out. Feeling seen, heard, understood, and known can be life-changing and transformative. Patients who come to seek treatment from me are often looking for a safe, confidential, empathic therapy relationship to share their feelings, understand themselves, to nurture emotional and psychological growth. One motivating factor for therapy is the desire for relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, relational difficulties, and self-esteem related struggles that have been either life long or situational. Treatment focus is often related to on-going issues related to depression, panic/anxiety, grief/loss, insecurities related to self and others, chronic medical conditions, physical/ sexual/ relational trauma, intimacy and relationship concerns, and issues related to self esteem/ self image/ body image. The type of psychotherapy I offer is informed by a developmental, relational/ intersubjective, and contemporary psychoanalytic frame of reference. This type of work offers a broad and meaningful exploration and working through of long held emotional and relational issues, gaining insight into the underlying root causes of symptoms and concerns, and the development of a healthy sense of self and authentic emotional life. Providing a safe, empathic environment are only a few of the many essential ingredients in establishing a secure working therapeutic relationship, and something that is seen as essential and greatly valued in this process of self discovery. The process of psychotherapy can offer meaningful emotional healing, in-depth understanding, and psychological working through of all that has had an impact on your relationship to your self, your physical and emotional wellbeing, and relationship to others. Through insight and a deeply felt authentic connection to ones emotional life, there is opportunity to develop new and more conscious/adaptive ways of living, coping, and relating so as to reduce suffering, and to improve overall quality of day to day living. In certain cases, mindfulness based meditation, visualization, and relaxation techniques are offered to assist with being more accepting, conscious, present and connected to your self, your body/mind, to others, and to your life in general. With conscious mindfulness based attention, and resulting integration of the body/ mind/ feeling, there can be an experience of emotional grounding, centeredness, and general enhancement in the quality of your life.

Many of the students I work best with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and often harder on themselves than anyone else could be. They may look like they have it all together on the outside, but inside, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of who they really are. Some are navigating perfectionism, burnout, or relationship stress. Others are adjusting to big life changes like leaving home, figuring out their identity, or questioning their future. If you're someone who’s used to pushing through and holding it all in, therapy can be a space to slow down, be honest, and feel more like yourself again. My goal is to help you build clarity, balance, and self-trust so you can feel grounded even when life is uncertain.
