Biography coming soon.
Josefa Molina
Josefa Molina is a licensed psychologist and has more than 40 years of experience in the mental health field, spanning direct clinical services, teaching and supervision, program development, behavioral health administration, and policy implementation. She retired as Director of Behavioral Health for a Federally Qualified Health Center, where she worked within an integrated behavioral health and primary care system. She currently provides behavioral health services through telehealth at Rula Health.
Throughout her career, Josefa has worked in public mental health and community-based settings, with a particular commitment to culturally responsive care and underserved communities. Her experience includes work with Latino and Native American communities in Arizona and diverse communities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
As a Training Director, difficulty recruiting Spanish-speaking Latino mental health providers led Josefa to teach and mentor new providers from the community, encouraging them to build careers serving their own communities.
Josefa also has experience implementing behavioral health policy, including California’s Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), and working within systems integrating mental health and substance use services in both San Francisco and Arizona. She brings this experience to the Sonoma County Behavioral Health Board as the county continues to transform and integrate its behavioral health services.
Her commitment is also personal. As a family member of people affected by mental health challenges, Josefa has experienced the difficulty families can face obtaining appropriate services for someone they love. This experience has deepened her commitment to improving access to culturally responsive care, particularly for people with co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions, and to ensuring that the voices and needs of families are represented within the behavioral health system.
District 4 - James Gore
Ana Booker
Ana Booker brings direct community service and a family perspective to Sonoma County’s behavioral health work. Since moving to the county in 2016, she has supported survivors of domestic violence at Legal Aid of Sonoma County and in the domestic violence courtroom, helped wildfire survivors through the Council on Aging’s CA HOPE program, and connected residents with services through West County Community Services. She now helps people navigate care following a mental health crisis and is a peer support specialist.
Ana’s commitment is deeply personal. Her sister Hazel was diagnosed with paranoid psychosis/schizophrenia in December 2020 and died by suicide on February 14, 2021. At the time, their family did not have the information to understand that Hazel’s behaviors could be signs of a mental health condition. That loss drives Ana’s work to make information and support easier for families to find.
A bilingual advocate, Ana is committed to equitable, compassionate care for all of Sonoma County residents. She brings firsthand knowledge of the barriers people face when seeking help and works to ensure that individuals and families are heard when behavioral health services are planned and evaluated.
Lindsy Morrison
Lindsy joined the Board in 2026. She is a healthcare executive specializing in behavioral health operations, with extensive experience leading psychiatric teams and driving organizational performance. Lindsy is passionate about advancing access to behavioral health services and strengthening systems of care across the continuum. She brings a collaborative, solutions-oriented approach to leadership and is committed to building partnerships that improve community health. As a member of the Sonoma County Behavioral Health Board, Lindsy contributes her expertise to support policy development, expand access to care, and promote high quality, patient-centered behavioral Health Services.
