Meet Our Intake Team
Our Intake and Administrative Team are the first folks you’ll speak with when you connect with Stella Nova! They’re experts in matching our clients with a great-fit therapist. And should you need any support throughout your therapy journey—with scheduling, billing, and the questions that come up along the way—they’re here to help.
Esther Kwon, Lead Intake & Administrative Specialist
As an Intake and Administrative Specialist, my job is to help support you as you’re getting started at Stella Nova. I strive to make every new client feel comfortable, safe and supported as we work together to find a match. You might see me pop up in your emails, or chat with me during a free phone consultation!
My own experiences in therapy have given me an appreciation for the importance of caring holistically for our emotional, mental, and physical well-being. I love being able to contribute to the field of mental health, and I hope to instigate positive impact and change in others’ lives.
I bring years of experience in customer service, as well volunteer experience supporting people recovering from eating disorders, to my work. I’m beginning my own journey to becoming a Marriage and Family Therapist this Fall!

Kila Johnson, Intake and Administrative Specialist
I know how important it is to work with a therapist you feel comfortable with, and who can help you reach your goals. I work closely with our entire team so that I can connect you with someone with the right expertise, therapeutic style, and personality match for your needs.
When I’m not at Stella Nova, I work as a Trauma-Informed Yoga Instructor, which has given me an appreciation for the powerful connection between the mind and body. My own experiences in therapy and yoga have sparked an interest in somatic practices for mental health, and I love supporting people on that journey.

If you’re not sure what you’re looking for, that’s ok too! Our free consultation will allow us to get to know your needs and preferences, so that we can match you with someone we think will be a great fit.
