Kaycie Crossley

Kaycie Crossley

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a licensed therapist with a background in working with adults navigating anxiety, relationship dynamics, and the long term impact of growing up in environments where emotional needs were not consistently met. My work is informed by attachment theory, neuroscience, and relational psychotherapy.

Clients often come to me when they feel stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but cannot seem to shift in real life. This might look like overthinking, people pleasing, difficulty trusting themselves, or repeating the same relationship dynamics despite wanting something different.

I have a particular interest in helping clients develop self-trust, emotional clarity, and a stronger sense of identity. My approach is grounded, direct, and collaborative. I am not a blank slate therapist. I am engaged, thoughtful, and willing to say the thing that helps you see yourself more clearly.

Veronica Caudillo

Veronica Caudillo

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm Veronica Caudillo, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Henderson, Nevada. I work primarily with adult and adolescent women navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I earned my graduate training in marriage and family therapy and have built my practice around creating a space where women feel genuinely heard and understood. Many of the clients I see arrive feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like themselves, and my role is to help them find their footing again.

I draw on evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and I accept insurance through Headway so that cost is one less barrier to getting support.

Therapist

Creating boundaries and recognizing the roles we play in our relationships can help to reframe what our emotional needs are. Often our responses and strong feelings or reactions are simply our needs not being met. We do the best we can with the tools we have, and forgiving your former self for tools you didn't have. I like to work with you collaboratively. Thank you for visiting this page in curiosity of seeking therapy, or working out a difficult shift in your life. Here’s a little about me and how I practice therapy: Cultivating your mind to think differently comes with practice.
