Finding the right therapist matters.
Here’s who you’ll be working with.
Katie Zimmermann
Founder & Clinical Director — LMFT
Katie is direct, engaged, and deeply invested in helping people understand themselves and their relationships in a real way. She creates a space that feels open, honest, and non-judgmental—where you don’t have to filter yourself or try to get it “right.” She specializes in trauma and couples work, especially for people who feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand but can’t seem to change. Her work integrates EMDR, attachment-focused therapy, Gottman Method, EFCT, narrative therapy, mindfulness, and ACT to create real, lasting change. Katie is known for being genuine, candid, and bringing a mix of depth, humor, and insight into the room.
Pamela Kremza-Andersen
LMFT
Pam is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFC 53474) with over 15 years of experience helping people find balance, understanding, and a sense of steadiness when life feels overwhelming. She earned her Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute. Pam works with individuals, women, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, infertility, and major life transitions. She brings a calm, thoughtful presence into the room that helps people feel safe enough to talk about what’s really going on — even when they don’t quite have the words for it yet. In addition to her work with adults, Pam has specialized training in using EMDR with children and supporting families through trauma and emotional overwhelm. This is a service that’s not easy to find locally on the Central Coast, and she feels deeply grateful to be able to offer this kind of support to families in our community who are looking for something more than talk therapy for their child. Clients often describe Pam as steady, warm, and easy to open up to — the kind of therapist who helps you slow down, feel understood, and begin to make sense of things that have felt tangled for a long time. Her sessions feel supportive, grounded, and quietly powerful — the kind where you leave feeling a little lighter than when you walked in.
Alissa Dye
AMFT
Alissa is calm, genuine, and easy to talk to—especially when things feel overwhelming or hard to put into words. She works with children, teens, and adults navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. Her background includes hospice work and supporting clients through major life transitions, which shaped her steady and compassionate approach. She integrates somatic, mindfulness-based, and humanistic approaches to help clients feel more grounded and connected. Clients often describe her as someone who makes therapy feel safe and approachable.
Kelcie Raecyna
AMFT
Kelcie works with individuals navigating emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, and life transitions. Her approach is relational, grounded, and focused on helping clients feel understood while also building practical tools for change. She brings a collaborative, down-to-earth style to therapy that feels supportive without being overly clinical or intimidating.
