In the age of big mental health tech, tons of sites pop up when you Google “therapist near me”.

At Muna Wellness we offer convenient online therapy for California residents so that you don’t have to worry about BART delays when already have anxiety.
We offer relatable support for ambitious adults and new and expecting parents who are finally ready “to call the lady”. To set aside time for themselves and do the work.
I enjoy supporting others with:
-
Becoming a parent is one of the biggest transitions of your life — and it doesn't always feel the way you expected. Postpartum depression, anxiety, identity shifts, and the quiet grief that can come with a NICU experience are all things I'm specifically trained to support. As a PMH-C certified perinatal mental health therapist, I offer postpartum depression therapy online for California moms and in-person in Virginia.

Anxiety doesn't always look like panic attacks — for a lot of high-achievers, it looks like never feeling like you've done enough, being constantly on, or carrying a low-grade sadness that's hard to name. Whether you're an anxiety therapist Bay Area search away from getting support, burning out from the pressure of always performing, or dealing with depression that's been quietly sitting in the background, you deserve care that actually meets you where you are. Online therapy for anxiety and depression can help you slow down, understand what you're feeling, and find your way back to yourself.

Relationships and family are some of the most meaningful parts of our lives — and some of the most complicated. Whether you're navigating family conflict, working through a shift in dynamics, healing after a breakup, or noticing the same patterns showing up again and again, those experiences are worth taking seriously. Often what's on the surface runs deeper — unspoken expectations, relationship anxiety, or generational patterns that were passed down long before you had any say in them. Therapy here isn't about fixing you. It's about understanding where these patterns came from, what you need, and deciding which ones stop with you.
How it works:
Intake + Rapport
The beginning stages of therapy are all about getting to know you so that I can better support you and your needs. We learn about your past and present so that we can set goals for the future. We’ll do a comprehensive assessment and set realistic goals that will guide you throughout your therapy journey.
This is the nitty-gritty, and to be honest, it isn’t always pretty. During the middle phase of therapy, is when we try new things like communication techniques, mindfulness, and habit building. It’s tough at first, but effective change doesn’t happen easily. But don’t worry when you try something new that works it feels really good.
Doing The Work
My job isn’t to have clients in therapy forever. It’s to help clients equip themselves with tools they will continue using outside of therapy. The goal is to build enough self-awareness and practice to continue your work outside of therapy. We’ll recap everything you’ve gathered and get you on your way.
Transition
Hi, I’m Tayyibah Chase, LMFT, PMH-C, and I specialize in working with ambitious adults and new & expecting parents who are navigating social and cultural pressures, life shifts, and demanding work environments. Through online therapy, I’ll help you put your mind at ease, focus on your intentions, and quiet the noise of the “shoulds.”
My Approach
As a therapist, I believe that the best results come from starting with a trusting relationship. I use a combination of evidence - based talk therapy strategies, mindfulness-based techniques, and creativity to support clients with easing emotional overwhelm, stress and anxiety.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
No. I, like many other private practice owners, do not take insurance. However, I can provide a superbill that clients can submit to their insurance for out-of-network reimbursement. I can also provide a guide that helps you inquire about your potential out-of-network benefits.
-
The short answer is that our healthcare system significantly undervalues our work by limiting the number of sessions, requiring extensive paperwork, very little pay, and limited confidentiality for the client. Therefore, until the kinks in this system are worked out, I will not be taking insurance.
-
I prefer to start with weekly sessions until we have reached the maintenance phase of therapy. Then, when clients feel ready, we discuss the option of biweekly sessions.
-
Not currently.

I'm happy to walk you through the process. Check out my blog on how to make use of out-of-network benefits.

I do not offer a sliding scale, but here are some options I do have available:
• I do accept Loveland Foundation vouchers which provide Black women and girls with vouchers to help cover the cost of therapy. Visit their website here.
• I keep 20% of my caseload for Black women who are students, parents, unemployed, or work in social service fields (non-profits, education, etc.) to receive therapy at half the cost.
• If you have a PPO insurance plan, you may be able to get partial reimbursement for the out-of-pocket costs of therapy. I can provide a superbill for you to submit to them for reimbursement.
-
I use a HIPAA-compliant platform called Simple Practice to do all sessions. Before your appointment, a video link will be sent to your email to give you access to the video session. It's like Zoom for therapists. You can use the Simple Practice client portal to request or cancel appointments and access superbills and other documents.
