Therapist

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, working in some of the most challenging clinical settings, I have a diverse skill set to process through even the most complex issues. While I specialize in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, I realize that the human condition is complex and I do not believe in an “one size fits all” approach to treatment. Rather, I find the most success in tailoring my interventions to align with my client’s individuality and personal goals.

Alex Bailey

Alex Bailey

Therapist

Virtual • Pasadena, CA


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.

Tene Rodgers

Therapist

Virtual • Pasadena, CA


I'm Tene Rodgers, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience in mental health and social services. I made the decision to become fully licensed five years ago because I wanted to go deeper in the work I've always cared about, and I haven't looked back since. I'm a Black woman, and that lived perspective shapes how I show up in the room. I offer culturally affirming care to adults, teens, and families, with a particular focus on trauma, grief, women's issues, relationship dynamics, and substance use.
