Rachel Dittmar Founder, LMFT

Hello! I am a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in relationships, individual needs, trauma, and mood disorders, including anxiety and depression. I am further passionate about maternal and reproductive mental health and helping women and families navigate transitions through this period. I am a certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist (PMH-C), treating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders such as Prenatal/ Postpartum Depression, Anxiety and other mental health issues that may occur during this period. I strive to create a safe environment for my clients to explore their feelings and bring awareness to their needs, supporting the client in their journey toward a fulfilling life. I firmly believe that everyone is the expert in their own lives and with positive support, can develop positive relationships, navigate changes, and feel their best. I believe that creating health and wellness in every aspect of one’s life will contribute to the overall health and happiness of the individual and their relationships. I utilize Cognitive Therapies. I also provide faith-based therapy and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.

Taryn Van Vliet AMFT

My name is Taryn Van Vliet (she/her/hers). I am a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist AMFT121669 with the Board of Behavioral Sciences working towards licensure in California. I hold an out-of-state master’s degree in Marriage, Couples, and Family Therapy from the Graduate School of Education and Counseling at Lewis and Clark College. I have experience using relational and systemic theory as a clinical intern at an Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy clinic treating a women’s trauma recovery group and adolescent psychosocial group. Soon after moving home to California I started working as a primary therapist with adults who struggle with eating disorders. I developed expertise and confidence working with complex and challenging client populations and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. As a systemically and relationally trained therapist, I focus on increasing agency, awareness, and voice through relational ways of thinking and engaging, to support clients in making conscious choices that will improve their overall quality of life. I’m skilled at rapport-building and generating insight with clients using a collaborative, interpersonal and respectful therapeutic approach.

Nadine Nelson Manning, AMFT

I am a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist AMFT161672 with the Board of Behavioral Sciences working towards licensure in California. I work with adults, seniors, and teens who are experiencing anxiety, depression, overwhelm, loneliness, anger, and paralysis about the state of the world and their place within it. They often describe a desire to live as their more authentic selves; make a bigger impact on positive change; have deeper and more meaningful relationships; transform financial struggles into new business ideas; and leave the world better than they found it. Additionally, as a survivor of breast cancer and meningitis, I also work with those who have chronic and terminal diagnoses, cancer, fear of death, and are facing end of life decisions. My approach is centered in existential therapy to help people discover why they are here now; how to translate their pain, experiences, and symptoms into wisdom and skills; and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. I incorporate multiple therapy modalities to customize therapy to each unique individual, including elements of ACT, somatic, and trauma healing. You are here for a reason. It is normal to have symptoms that get in the way of our ability to function, connect with others, live the life we want, and feel aligned with purpose and energy. Let's work together to heal the origin of your wounds, translate them into your power, and make an impact no matter how much time is left in your life journey.
