OUR STORY
Why we started Unfold.
Recognizing the need for help is challenging enough — finding the right clinician should be simple and straightforward. Unfold Psychology was founded to change what that experience feels like: to offer the depth and rigor of specialized psychological care, delivered with the warmth, flexibility, and responsiveness that too often go missing in traditional practice.
Since 2016, we've grown into a multidisciplinary team, serving individuals and families across the Bay Area — from therapy and psychological assessment to forensic evaluation and executive functioning coaching. What connects all of it is a single aim: to improve your quality of life, and to support you on the journey to where you want to be.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
The principles behind our care.
The whole person
We treat the full context of your life — not just a symptom or a diagnosis. Real change comes from understanding who you are and what you're navigating.
Strength at the center
Our work is rooted in building self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-worth. The more faith you have in your own abilities, the more fully you can engage with your life.
Meeting you where you are
We never present ourselves as cryptic or aloof. We meet you exactly where you are and support you as you move towards where you want to be — with feedback, tools, and a clear path.
Evidence-based, always
Our clinicians draw on proven, current approaches — CBT, DBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic therapy, and more — matched thoughtfully to your needs.
Access that doesn't stop at the session
Care shouldn't end when the hour does. We stay reachable between sessions, because life's hardest moments rarely wait for your next appointment.
Inclusive by design
We're proud to provide affirming, inclusive care for the LGBTQIA+ community and for everyone who walks through our doors — you're welcome exactly as you are.

Testimonials
In their own words.
Dr. Heafey has had an incredible positive impact on me. He was able to very quickly identify underlying causes for issues that my previous therapists had all missed, and we either focused on them in our sessions or he gave me referrals where appropriate. I've grown so much and function so much better thanks to all the effort he puts in. He cares deeply about his patients and will always go the extra mile for them.

Dr. Heafey and his team at Unfold Psychology is amazing. I have been working with Dr Heafey for 3 years now and it's completely changed the way I see myself and attitude towards life. The Executive functioning, run by Talia Prince was life changing. I was horrible at following through, staying motivated and life management. I noticed great change just after 6 months of the EF program. Talia is incredible and works harder for you than anyone has before. Highly recommend Unfold and the EF program for anyone struggling with life management.

Best therapist I've known. Helped me through my couple years of college and dealing with PTSD, relationships and anxiety. I am so grateful to know him and to have had him there for my care. He feels so safe and creates such a safe space for you to explore and express your emotions.
