Angie Rosenberg

Angie Rosenberg

Therapist

Virtual • California


You’re doing everything “right”—staying active, showing up for others, pushing through—but you’re still stuck in your head. You overthink everything. You’re constantly anxious, tense, and on edge. Maybe you feel like you’re always performing—for your team, your job, your family—and you’re tired of carrying it all.

I specialize in working with athletes and active adults who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, and people-pleasing. Together, we create a space where you can finally breathe, feel grounded, and build emotional strength to match your physical drive.

My approach combines CBT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and solution-focused strategies through my signature T.H.R.I.V.E. Method. We’ll work together to untangle old patterns, reconnect with your body, and build clarity and confidence from the inside out.

If you’re ready to feel more present, powerful, and mentally strong, I’d be honored to support you.

Jose Hernandez

Jose Hernandez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a naturally curious, growth-oriented human who believes healing happens when insight meets action. I love helping people zoom out to see the bigger picture of their lives—while also gently zooming in on the patterns, habits, and beliefs that shape their everyday experience.

I’m drawn to the intersection of self-awareness and real-world momentum. Therapy with me is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded. We can explore the deep stuff—identity, relationships, purpose, transitions—while also building practical tools you can actually use on a Tuesday afternoon when life is lifing.

I value emotional honesty, nervous system regulation, and sustainable growth over quick fixes. I believe you’re not broken—you’re adaptive. Together, we figure out what’s working, what’s outdated, and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned, empowered, and authentically you.

Expect warmth, insight, humor when it fits, and a space where all parts of you are welcome. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical and cold—it can be connected, intentional, and even a little energizing.

Dr. Afarin Rajaei

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hi, I’m Dr. Afarin Rajaei (she/her), a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and purpose. In my 10 years in therapy, my approach has evolved to be warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, drawing from narrative therapy, systemic thinking, and the Gottman Method.

Whether you're coping with anxiety, relationship stress, identity shifts, or life transitions, I provide a space where your experiences are validated and your goals are honored. Together, we’ll uncover your inner strengths, address barriers, and co-create strategies for growth and healing. I work from a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens and bring deep experience in supporting people from diverse backgrounds, including immigrants and those navigating intergenerational dynamics.

Clients often tell me they feel seen and understood in our work together—and that therapy with me helps them reconnect with their voice, values, and vision for life. If you’re seeking a therapist who balances insight with actionable change, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.
