Erika Maruyama

Erika Maruyama

Therapist

Virtual • California


Welcome. I’m Erika and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in San Francisco. My deep interest in understanding others and my belief in the transformational power of therapy is what drew me into this work. I received my Masters in Counseling Psychology from The University of San Francisco and my passion for serving marginalized populations led me into community mental health. I worked in various positions as a substance use counselor, therapist, clinical supervisor, and clinical director. I also have experience within a private practice setting. In my free time, I enjoy fostering my relationships with family, friends, and community, working with my hands making stained glass and gardening, going outdoors—especially the ocean, and running.

Gianna Colavin-Bridges

Therapist

Virtual • California


I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and accepted. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, and I work with each client to understand their unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I strive to create a space where you can be open and honest without judgment, while working together to better understand yourself, develop practical tools, and create meaningful change.

Before becoming a social worker, I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. My background in dance has shaped the way I think about the connection between the mind, body, emotions, and overall well-being. I value the role that creativity, self-expression, and awareness can play in healing and personal growth. I also believe that humor, honesty, and authenticity have a place in therapy, and I want you to feel comfortable being your whole self in our work together.

Mark Brody

Mark Brody

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a master’s degree and over 20 years of experience working with a wide range of clients and concerns. Over the years, I’ve worked in clinics, run my own private practice, and provided therapy to enlisted Navy personnel and their spouses. For the past five years, I’ve primarily provided therapy through telehealth.

Therapy can sometimes feel unfamiliar or intimidating, especially when you’re meeting a new therapist, but I don’t believe it has to feel that way. I try to create a relaxed, comfortable environment where you can feel like yourself. I bring genuine curiosity, warmth, humor when appropriate, and most importantly, authenticity to my work. I want therapy to feel like a real conversation and a genuine human connection—not like you’re being analyzed or judged.
