Ashley McKinnon, MA, AMFT #146864, APCC #16602 | Ashley graduated from Pacifica Graduate Institute with her Master’s degree in Counseling and is a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor.

Ashley sees teens and adults. Her areas of expertise include EMDR, Religious Trauma and Spiritual Abuse, Anxiety, Depression, and Relationship Issues. 


“Therapy is all about the story of you. It is a deep exploration of your inner world and your unique journey, and it all begins with exactly where you are now: your life, relationships, emotions, fears, curiosities, and hopes. As a therapist, my role is to serve as both a guide and a co-explorer of your inner terrain, walking alongside you and holding a safe and secure container for that exploration. I view healing as an ongoing process where we learn to hold our vulnerabilities with kindness, creating space for more light - more joy, love, delight, peace, and wonder. This process is not about replacing darkness but integrating it into a harmonious whole. I would be honored to accompany you on this journey, whether that ends up being one season of your life or many, as long as therapy remains a positive and beneficial space for you.” 


Kristen Gioscia, MA, AMFT #149665 | Kristen graduated from Pepperdine University with her Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy.

She specializes in helping teens, young women, and couples. She provides the unique capability to support content creators and public figures who seek a therapist who understands the specific stressors of working in social media. Her areas of expertise include Relationship Issues (including breakups + infidelity), Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Adjustment to Chronic Illness, and Career Coaching.

She is passionate about helping her clients move through whatever makes them feel stuck and overwhelmed through effective care that feels relatable and attuned .

“My approach is rooted in the belief that we heal in relationship with others. When we feel seen and safely connected to other people, we’re more likely to feel and do our best and be more resilient to stress and trauma. When those connections are missing, we tend to get stuck in painful emotions like sadness, fear, and shame.
Through our collaborative and nurturing therapeutic relationship, you’ll feel empowered and safe to explore your past and present experiences, identify problematic cycles and thought patterns that lead to presenting difficulties, and be equipped with healthy coping mechanisms in order to develop and maintain healthy and fulfilling connections with yourself and others.”
