Rachelle Goldenberg

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Walnut Creek, CA


If you’ve spent years masking, over-explaining, or trying to fit into spaces not built for you, my practice offers a different path. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with an MSW from UC Berkeley, I provide a space where you don’t need to be "fixed"—you need to be understood. My work centers on supporting neurodivergent adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, those navigating complex cultural identities, and people healing from trauma. I integrate evidence-based clinical practices with the healing traditions of my Tlingit and Hawaiian heritage.

Prior to private practice, I served as a first responder and worked in government and community settings, providing support to diverse populations who have often felt overlooked by traditional mental health systems. Whether we are addressing complex trauma or the daily toll of navigating a world that doesn't always make room for you, I am committed to providing an affirming and deeply collaborative therapeutic experience.

Melinda Martindale

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 28 mi away • Santa Cruz, CA


Hi I am melinda martindale. I was a social worker for 2 decades before a life changing event encouraged me to get my license and become a therapist. I heard from one of my professors that the best predictor of successful therapy is the relationship between the therapist and the client. My style is blunt yet honest and gentle. Every session we will start where you are on any given day. We might cry together, laugh together, curse the world together and find gratitude together. My passion is walking with you to find and be your most authentic self-with this transformation all of your relationships-both professional and personal- will dramatically improve. I am a mother, was a single mother, now a step mother and a grandmother. I am a lover of nature and creativity. I am also a survivor of this thing we are all living called the 'human condition'

I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats

I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.
