Tessa Sinclair is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with thoughtful, high-functioning adults and couples navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, and questions of identity and purpose. Many of her clients are successful professionally — consultants, entrepreneurs, engineers, creatives, and medical professionals — yet feel lonely, uncertain, or quietly dissatisfied beneath the surface. They may appear composed and capable, while internally wrestling with self-doubt, relational patterns, or a loss of direction.
Tessa’s work is especially supportive for individuals who want to deepen their relationships, clarify difficult decisions, or reconnect with a more grounded sense of self. She also works with couples seeking to strengthen communication, repair trust, or thoughtfully navigate separation. Her clients are often reflective and motivated, ready to explore not just immediate stressors but the deeper patterns shaping their lives.
Her approach integrates attachment-based, trauma-informed, and solution-focused therapy within a relational framework. Tessa blends practical clarity with emotional depth, helping clients understand the roots of their patterns while also making meaningful, forward movement. Sessions are collaborative and attuned, with attention to both nervous system regulation and insight — creating space for change that feels sustainable rather than forced.
Tessa’s background includes training in interdisciplinary studies and transpersonal counseling psychology, which informs her appreciation for the connection between emotional wellbeing, meaning, and lived experience. She has been practicing psychotherapy for over a decade and brings warmth, steadiness, and discernment to her work.
Tessa has been licensed in California since 2016 and has provided fully online therapy since 2020. She works with individuals and couples throughout California via secure telehealth.
Years of Experience: 10 years
Relationship issues - Exploring patterns of connection, communication, and conflict in romantic relationships. This includes deepening intimacy, navigating recurring misunderstandings, and clarifying whether to repair, redefine, or release a partnership.
Perfectionism - High-achieving, thoughtful adults often hold themselves to impossible standards. We’ll explore the roots of self-criticism, fear of failure, and chronic pressure — and build a more grounded, sustainable sense of self-worth.
Life transitions - Periods of change can stir identity questions, uncertainty, and grief — even when the change is chosen. I support clients navigating career shifts, relocations, relationship changes, and evolving life roles with clarity and steadiness.
Anxiety - Anxiety can show up as physical tension, difficulty relaxing, irritability, or feeling perpetually “on.” In our work, we’ll gently explore the roots of that activation and help your nervous system settle into greater steadiness and trust.
Transition to new parenthood - Becoming a parent can bring joy, overwhelm, identity shifts, and relationship strain. I support individuals and couples adjusting to the emotional and relational changes of early parenthood.
Divorce & separation - Considering separation can stir grief, clarity, and uncertainty. I help individuals and couples move through this process thoughtfully and intentionally.
