Betel Christy Ruschmeyer

Betel Christy Ruschmeyer

Therapist

Virtual • Pasadena, CA


My name is Betel, and I am a California Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in my 6th year of practice. I received my MA from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, where I trained in a process-oriented, humanistic-existential style of clinical work. My background also includes coaching in ketamine-assisted care settings, and I am psychedelics-informed and educated.

At the foundation of my work is the belief that human being is an organic unfolding, in which mindful awareness plays an enduring and creative role. I therefore tend to work especially well with artists, young adults, the LGBTQ+ community, and anyone navigating major life transitions or places of in-between in their sense of who they are.

Sarah Chavez

Sarah Chavez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with over 10 years of experience in various mental health roles supporting teens, adults, and families through stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative—therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all. I use a mix of approaches like CBT, trauma-focused care, DBT skills, mindfulness, solution-focused work, family systems, and humanistic therapy, tailoring sessions to what actually works for you. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and more confident navigating real-life challenges.

As a first-generation Latina, breaking generational stigma around mental health is deeply important to me. I’m passionate about providing culturally responsive care that honors identity, family values, and lived experience while creating safe space for healing and growth.

Dr. Alcira Sahami

Dr. Alcira Sahami

Psychiatrist

Virtual • California


Welcome! I am Dr Sahami. I am a Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist, and I’m so glad you found my practice. I partner with families across California to support children and teenagers (ages 4 to 17) navigating life's ups and downs.

Growth can sometimes feel overwhelming, whether your child is struggling with school focus, managing daily anxieties, or adjusting to big family changes. My practice offers a warm, safe, and completely virtual space to explore helpful medication strategies and behavioral tools tailored to your child's unique personality.

To keep my care deeply focused and safe over video, my self-contained virtual practice specializes exclusively in outpatient, mild-to-moderate challenges (like ADHD, mild anxiety, and life transitions). I do not handle complex crisis management, which allows me to truly dedicate my energy to helping your child thrive in their day-to-day routine. I can’t wait to meet you and your family!

Olajumoke Adeyemi

Olajumoke Adeyemi

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Long Beach, CA


Olajumoke Adeyemi, NP, is a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Long beach, California. I specialize in maternal mental health and am dual board-certified in Family Practice and Psychiatry. This combined background allows me to understand both the medical and emotional complexities that can arise during pregnancy, the postpartum period, and the transition into motherhood.

I support women experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, mood changes, intrusive thoughts, irritability, emotional overwhelm, and sleep disruption. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and centered on helping you feel more emotionally grounded and supported during this important stage of life.

If you’re reading this and quietly wondering, “Why does this feel so much harder than I thought it would?” — you are not alone.

Motherhood can be beautiful and deeply meaningful, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, exhausting, and heavy. You can love your baby fiercely and still feel anxious, tearful, irritable, depleted, or simply unlike yourself.

Struggling does not mean you are failing as a mother. Sometimes, it means you need a space where your well-being matters, too.

You deserve compassionate care that recognizes you as a whole person—not only as a mother. With appropriate support and treatment, it is possible to feel more like yourself again and experience motherhood with greater confidence, stability, and connection.
