Hi, I'm Mila Green. I am a licensed clinical and forensic psychologist who has been in the mental health field for 30 years. I have a Doctorate from the California School of Professional Psychology and a Masters from Pepperdine University. I help adults struggling with life changes and upheavals, such as career stress or burnout and/or relationships disruption. I have much experience working with people with anxiety, depression, bipolar and psychotic symptoms.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

After brief introductions and clarity on the expected process of therapy, together we will explore the challenges a client is facing and emotional distress they are feeling. The first sessions will focus on information gathering and gaining an understanding of the issues a client is dealing with so that we can move forward as a team with creating a plan. The goal is to create a supportive and safe space for a client to explore why is happening in their life and why.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Over my many years in the field, I have learned my authenticity as a provider and a person is one of my greatest strengths. I focus on conveying a sense of hope, helping clients see and draw on their strengths even when they often feel most vulnerable and awash with distress. Additionally, I like to create psychological movement in my sessions so that therapy is both active and ultimately, useful. I try to use humor as a mechanism to convey information and lessen the impact of often difficult experiences.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My clients are motivated to make change but often feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start. They need support to gain new tools and practice them in a safe and supportive environment. My clients appreciate my direct but genuine nature as I available for clients feels overwhelmed by their emotions or directionless.
