Therapists in California

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, CA. I received my Masters in Social Work from Columbia University and have been practicing for over 14 years, both as a therapist and in community mental health settings. I help adults who are feeling stuck with depression, relationship issues, and challenging childhood issues become the best versions of themselves. I help clients come to terms with their past, heal, grow, and move forward.

I’m a clinical psychologist (PhD) licensed in CA and OH, offering warm, depth-oriented individual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions (e.g., starting a new career, college, empty-nest, break-ups), social and familial relationship challenges, imposter syndrome, perfectionism, depression, and low self-esteem. I take a collaborative, insight-focused approach, helping clients approach their experiences with non-judgmental curiosity as they explore patterns, build self-awareness, understand and become more comfortable with their emotions, and work through past hurts. Together, we foster confidence, connection, values-driven action, personalized boundaries, and lasting well-being in personal, social, and professional areas of life.

Welcome to your first step into a new therapeutic journey. I aim to create a safe, compassionate therapeutic environment that allows you to explore strengths and empower you to have more control over your life. I have helped clients gain new skills and explore experiences that can get in the way of their current happiness. Whether they are struggling with depression, anxiety, identity, and/or relationships, I focus on helping clients feel happier and more confident in their everyday lives. After graduating from Northwestern University with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have spent the last four years helping people struggling with acute depression and anxiety symptoms as well as any other symptom that has significantly impacted their lives. I have helped clients make life-changing steps toward recovery to create the lives they want to live.

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I believe it’s no coincidence that you found your way here — this may be part of God’s plan for you to pause, reflect, and explore support for your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with eight years of experience in the mental health field and four years in private practice. I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College in Pasadena, California, in 2008. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with many incredible clients and families, each bringing their own unique strengths, resilience, and life experiences.

My therapy style supports those struggling with symptoms of anxiety, grief and loss, depression, trauma, interpersonal relationships, life transitions, parenting, communication, and low self-esteem. My practice is inclusive, non-judgmental, culturally responsive, and affirming of LGBTQ+ communities. I offer services in English and Spanish. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist; I earned a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University. I have worked with adults, children, families, and couples in different settings. I hope to join you in your current process and together increase self-awareness, unlearn unhelpful responses to triggers, and increase agency in your life. Whether it is a new stage in life, relationship issues, anxiety, feelings of hopelessness, self-doubt, or something else, we can work towards improving your mental and physical health. On a personal note, I enjoy hiking, spending time with my family, and exploring new cities. I also enjoy visiting coffee shops, propagating plants, and photography.

My name is Tiffany Deneau. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience. I have worked both in the inpatient/outpatient setting and have worked with several populations. My primary focus is improving emotional regulation, improving relationships, increasing self-esteem, and achieving personal growth. I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to no longer want to go on with life. I also know what it feels like to finally be out of the hole l was in and to feel whole again. I know how difficult it is to ask for help, but it's also the best decision one can make.

As a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over four years of specialized expertise, I provide online therapy for adults seeking to manage anxiety and navigate major life transitions, such as relocation or career shifts. Utilizing an Emotionally Focused (EFT) approach, I also help couples identify the negative cycles keeping them stuck, empowering them to de-escalate conflict, build lasting self-assurance, and regain a deeply secure emotional connection with their partner.

My name is Ari Walker. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked in mental health for 10 years and have been a clinician for 5 years. I am a mom, wife, and lover of nature and coffee. I love walking along side clients on their journey to discovering themselves as they pave their path to healing. I believe humans are extraordinary and capable of amazing things and it is my joy to come along side to help them tap into their already there strength and wisdom in order to meet their mental health goals.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over seven years of experience providing mental health treatment in both community and correctional settings. My approach is compassionate, structured, and collaborative, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a holistic understanding of how thoughts, emotions, and life experiences shape well-being. I strive to create a supportive space where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to manage challenges and build lasting change.

I am energetic, fun-loving, and charismatic. As a therapist, you will find me to be open, honest, encouraging, compassionate and supportive. My passion is to help all my clients explore their unique individuality, inspire them to discover their strengths and happily embrace their challenges. As a mother of teenagers, I understand and empathize with the struggles that all parents and children are facing as they try to navigate through these confusing, chaotic, ever-changing years. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, safe environment where individuals, teens, families, and parents can feel comfortable to be themselves. Here, they can explore their feelings and emotions in order to help empower change. I am a teacher, but I also listen and am able to challenge and help my clients grow into healthy, loving, happy, responsible individuals. For those who might be looking to integrate Christian faith and spirituality, I am in tune with that perspective. However, I also respect those who choose to keep psychotherapy separate from faith.

Are you sick and tired of the same patterns and routines? Do you feel overwhelmed and find it difficult to keep up with your work, relationships, and health? Are you feeling stuck because of your anxiety and depression? Do you struggle with making it through the day or having a healthy work/life balance? Is your inability to manage emotions and stress impacting your daily life? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Whether you're dealing with feeling overwhelmed, relationship issues, unresolved issues from childhood, work dissatisfaction and burnout, or cycles of anxiety and depression... I'm here to help.

Hello! My name is Lisa Thiel and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of individuals from all backgrounds. I started my career working with children and families focusing on attachment and family relations. I currently work with individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, addiction, and personality disorders. I encourage my clients to think about what they want their lives to look like and then we work to get there. It is always a collaborative relationship and everyone benefits from learning new skills they can take with them for the rest of their lives.

I am a clinician with experience helping clients who struggle with finding their sense of self and feeling confident in their life decisions. I work collaboratively to support individuals in exploring their values, understanding patterns that may hold them back, and developing the skills and insight needed to make empowered, fulfilling choices. My approach focuses on guiding clients toward self-awareness, resilience, and a greater sense of clarity and satisfaction in their lives.

Welcome to my (safe) space!!! I'm a bit of a Fred Roger's enthusiast, so let me start by saying thank you for being you!! My most important value is to treat people with love and respect, no matter their background, no matter their circumstances!! I believe we all deserve it!!! My name is Jose-Santos Xavier Orozco, feel free to call me whatever makes you comfortable!!! Life to me is about being flexible, or like Bruce Lee said, like water, being able to bend and reshape whenever needed, while maintaining strength and purpose!!! I am a 36 year old male therapist who was born in SF and raised in Los Angeles! My early years were spent in the foster care system until I was placed into a permanent family at the age of 6. I am of mixed Ethnic background and have experienced culture/ identity difficulties since as long as I can remember. Life has naturally brought me to get a degree in Social work and work in this field. I would definitely consider myself a wounded warrior, although I feel like my injuries have been pretty well tended to by now. Learning to accept and love yourself has been my greatest achievement (on-going achievement) and I promise that when you get there too, it can be yours as well!!! I prefer working with ADULT population; I have very limited experience working with kids. Thank you

As a first-generation daughter of immigrants, I hold deep respect for those who are new to therapy or returning to it. My goal is to create a culturally-grounded, safe environment where you can heal and grow.

I’m dedicated to supporting individuals through life’s challenges with compassion and cultural awareness.

Hello and welcome, I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) with a practice rooted in curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for the human experience. My work is guided by the belief that healing emerges when we feel truly seen, heard, and held—an approach that honors both the conscious and unconscious dimensions of your inner life. I offer a holistic, integrative approach that engages mind, body, and spirit. I am certified in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy, including ketamine-assisted sessions (KAP), and provide both preparation and integration support to help these experiences become a source of profound insight and growth. My practice moves beyond traditional talk therapy. I see storytelling not just as expression, but as a doorway to transformation. Through connecting with the body and attending to the felt sense of experience, clients can shift entrenched patterns, reclaim fragmented parts of themselves, and cultivate lasting change. By exploring both the personal and archetypal dimensions of your inner world, we work to cultivate resilience, confidence, and a deeper sense of trust in yourself and in life’s unfolding.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience across diverse settings, which has shaped my deep understanding of people, trauma, and the pathways to true healing and restoration. My work has allowed me to walk alongside individuals in some of their most vulnerable moments and support meaningful, lasting change. For several years, I served in a church setting as a lay counselor, where I integrated a Biblical perspective into counseling. Through this work, I have seen how faith-informed care can bring profound healing to the whole person—mind, body, and soul. I believe that when spiritual insight and clinical understanding come together, clients can experience deep inner renewal and freedom. I have also worked in a psychiatric hospital, collaborating closely with multidisciplinary treatment teams in high-acuity environments. This experience strengthened my clinical skills and gave me firsthand insight into what truly helps individuals stabilize, heal, and regain hope during times of crisis. In my practice, I primarily use Solution-Focused Therapy alongside other evidence-based modalities, thoughtfully tailored to each client’s unique needs. My goal is to help you identify strengths, move through trauma, and find practical tools for growth—while creating a safe, compassionate space for inner healing. I work with individuals seeking healing from trauma, emotional pain, and life challenges, and with those who desire faith-integrated care.

I value building strong therapeutic relationships and meeting clients where they are while helping them move forward at a pace that feels steady and manageable.

I have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2018 and have worked in the social work field since 2015. I began my therapy practice in 2022, specializing in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression. While it may sound cliché, I am genuinely passionate about helping clients find relief in the moment while also making small, practical changes that support lasting improvement over time. My therapeutic style is warm, approachable, and grounded in a nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe and supported.

Welcome I am glad you are here. I am an expressive arts therapist, and I have dedicated my career to anti-oppression work. Creativity heals and can deepen the work you want to do, for those that want to explore in that way. I view therapy as both personal, interpersonal, social and that systemic issues impact healing. Therapy with me is honest, we may laugh together, or I may hold with you your biggest sorrows. You are the leader and I am here to facilitate and co-create the change you wish to achieve. We will chip away at stuckness together. I have also worked with people in county mental health who did not have a choice about being in therapy.
