I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker supporting adults in Los Angeles, and I’m honored to help you navigate life’s challenges, whether you’re dealing with stress, trauma, or big decisions. Together, we’ll use person-centered therapy to create a space where you can grow, heal, and feel more fulfilled.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from USC, and I have been supporting individuals through life’s challenges for the past seven years. Throughout my career, I have worked with youth, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, and the ongoing impact of stress and emotional overwhelm. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, grounded, and infused with moments of humor when it helps create connection and ease. I draw from evidence based practices including EMDR, CBT, DBT, trauma informed care, and parts oriented work to create a therapeutic experience that feels personal and meaningful. My intention is to help clients understand themselves more deeply, process what has been weighing on them, and build the resilience and confidence needed to move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. I believe healing is possible, and I am here to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your strength, clarity, and inner capacity for change.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Los Angeles, I help adults work through challenges like anxiety, depression, and family conflict using approaches like CBT and solution-focused therapy. I strive to create a supportive space where you can feel grounded, valued, and empowered to foster real growth.

Hello!! My name is Chloe Meshel-Wood, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about creating a safe, open, and supportive space for my clients. I have learned that getting to know you and understanding your values is an important part of the healing process. My goal is to support you in navigating challenges, building on your strengths, and ultimately feeling more confident taking charge of your own life. I believe that every person is unique, and I strive to recognize and highlight the strengths in each client I work with. If you feel like we might be a good fit, please connect so I can learn more about you. Starting therapy can often feel like a challenging step, and I would be honored to support you through that process.

You're a courageous person for making this often difficult first step, especially if you have never done therapy before. Whatever has been causing you pain, know that we will work together to understand the root causes and develop coping strategies that work. I am a therapist with many years of experience in both outpatient clinics and inpatient hospitals. I work with adults and teens and I specialize in treating depression, anxiety and trauma. The first half of my career I provided therapy to children and families, then later began working primarily with adults and teens. I have also led group therapy in both inpatient and outpatient settings for adults and teenagers. My approach is collaborative and client centered, balancing both empathic attunement and taking a more active role with use of experiential techniques.

While depression and anxiety may be reasonable responses to your life experiences and the state of the world, that doesn't mean you have to suffer alone. You deserve support. I strive to create an environment where you can safely lean into difficult feelings and process your past and present without shame or judgment. We will work collaboratively to unpack the impact of systems, relationships, and intersectional identities (i.e. women of color, immigrant background, cultural stress) on your well-being. Together, we’ll explore healing not only as an individual journey, but as an act of empowerment and transformation.

Many people come to therapy feeling stuck—repeating painful relationship patterns, carrying the weight of past experiences that they’re ready to heal, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges. Therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin creating meaningful change. Choosing therapy is a meaningful step toward improving your life and relationships. With greater self-understanding comes the opportunity for deeper connection, emotional balance, and lasting change. If you're ready to break free from patterns that no longer serve you and create a more fulfilling life, I welcome you to reach out.

My approach is rooted in "beginning with the end in mind." Shortly after our first meeting, we will collaborate on a comprehensive, practical plan designed to point you and your family toward your specific goals. My focus is on helping clients move away from destructive patterns and toward a life built on personal values. I offer specialized individual psychotherapy and real-time phone coaching to ensure skills are applied when they are needed most.

Hello. I'm Dr. Dutton. I am a licensed clinical forensic psychologist, and I have been working in the field since 2014. I have experience working with clients that are facing anxiety, depression, history of trauma, severe mental illness, forensic/legal issues, sexual addiction, sexual abuse, difficulty setting boundaries, self-esteem, career stress/burnout, and relationship issues.

As a licensed mental health professional based in California, I specialize in providing compassionate and individualized care for clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and complex family dynamics. Drawing from a rich background for the last 13 years in evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and family systems approaches, I empower my clients to navigate life's challenges and improve their relationships.

All things are interconnected. To feel better, you have to act better. To feel better, you have to think better. To think better, you have to feel better. To act better, you have to think better. To think, feel, and act better, you have to care for your physical health. To care for your physical health, you have to think, feel, and act better. Each has a corresponding effect on the other. However, the aspect of ourselves that we have the most direct control of is what we do, our acting. While we can influence other people, we cannot control other people. A great source of conflict and unhappiness results from our efforts to control others. If you want better relationships, the only thing we can control is what we do, how we choose to relate. We are responsible for what we do. Others are responsible for what they do. Accepting this fundamental reality and thinking, feeling, and acting in accordance with it is how we increase our experience of power, freedom, belonging, meaning and, very importantly, fun. My professional experience includes over 30 years of post-Master’s clinical work, including leadership experience in foster care, chemical abuse and addiction, inpatient and outpatient mental health services, and crisis intervention, de-escalation, and hospitalization. I am experienced in working with ages three through the elderly. I have worked extensively with youth and families, diverse populations and life issues, providing services in various settings, including family homes, schools, juvenile detention facilities, jails, outpatient clinics, and inpatient psychiatric facilities.

Do you feel stuck but aren't sure why? Do you feel a lack of meaning or purpose? Do you want to make changes but lack the clarity, direction or motivation to get started? I empower high-functioning individuals to overcome obstacles toward goal attainment through a holistic approach. I am an LCSW with over 30 years of experience helping people work toward reaching their potential. I utilize several approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness & Concentration, and I am heavy on goal-setting, attainment and homework between sessions.

I have been in the helping professions since 2005 and as a licensed therapist for 16 years. I’ve worked with a variety of clients of different cultures throughout. Early in my training, there was a heavy emphasis on the Western approach to address symptomology, but now as my career and experience have grown, I blend Western approach with Eastern influence, emphasizing the link between the mind and the body, and how trauma lives within the body, not just in our minds.

I was drawn to therapy after witnessing mental health's impact on my peers and family. I learned early how important it is to address social and emotional well-being throughout life transitions. I enjoy helping others become their best selves. I work with adolescents and adults, specializing in anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism spectrum challenges. Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients make progress and start feeling better. We'll work together to define what you want to accomplish. This starts by building a trusting relationship, collaboratively setting goals, and tracking your progress along the way.

A bit about me: I’m a true crime junkie, I love painting, bowling, and music in any mood, so trust me when I say there is nothing too weird or too much here. We’ll move at your pace, and I’ll walk beside you every step of the way. When you come into the therapy room, I will be warm, welcoming, and real, because therapy can feel intimidating and nobody needs extra pressure on top of what they already carry.

As a psychologist specializing in children and teens in Los Angeles, I help families manage ADHD, anxiety, chronic illness, and parenting challenges using evidence-based approaches like CBT and solution-focused therapy. My goal is to create a supportive space where young people and their caregivers can build coping skills and foster positive, lasting change.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker and therapist based in San Francisco, partnering with adults who are ready to move through anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and relationship stress toward a more grounded and meaningful life. For over eight years, I’ve provided compassionate, evidence-based care in hospitals, human-service agencies, schools, and community health settings. My clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by emotions, uncertain about their direction, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. In our work together, I create a space where insight and action meet. Drawing from Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and attachment-informed exploration, I help clients connect with their values, strengthen emotional regulation, and cultivate a more flexible, balanced mindset. Our sessions are collaborative and practical—we explore what’s happening beneath the surface, and then translate those insights into daily habits and relational shifts that support growth and resilience. My approach is warm, intuitive, and grounded in authenticity. I believe healing unfolds when we learn to honor our emotions, practice self-compassion, and realign with what truly matters. Whether you’re processing loss, navigating a life transition, or seeking deeper connection with yourself and others, my goal is to help you feel more clear, capable, and at peace in your own life. Please note that couples therapy is offered on a private-pay basis only, at a rate pf $250 per session per couple, and I do not accept insurance for couples or family sessions. I am happy to provide a superbill upon request for clients who wish to submit it to their insurance company for possible reimbursement.

My name is Jeanne, pronunciation is (Janay). I believe that young adults and military personal shouldn't have to struggle as much as they do.

I have experience working with young adults and military, I was active duty myself.

As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my deep empathy, active listening, and a commitment to mindful curiosity. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where your unique story can be truly heard and valued. Rather than simply diagnosing a problem, I listen for the 'hidden' stories of your strengths and values that often get overshadowed. My approach to active listening is about more than just understanding; it’s about standing alongside you to deconstruct the challenges you face and uncover the skills you already possess. Together, we will collaborate to rewrite the narratives that no longer serve you, fostering a therapeutic relationship built on trust, respect, and the reclamation of your personal agency.

Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by the weight of their emotions, relationships, or life transitions. They may be navigating anxiety, depression, grief, identity shifts, or the residue of past relationship injuries that continue to shape their present. My work focuses on helping you develop awareness, create meaningful change, and strengthen your emotional resilience to move forward with confidence. I draw from evidence-based practices—such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotion-Focused approaches, and trauma-informed methods—to provide a space that is structured, encouraging, and collaborative.

My name is Christopher, and I believe life can be better than what we have adapted to and gotten used to. Over the years I first began working with the indigent population and there I learned about the connections between substance abuse, mental illness and trauma. I then worked more with addiction when I worked with people struggling to stop substance abuse and once again, I recognized a connection between these behaviors and trauma. Finally, before completing the last stages of earning hours for my license I worked with children and families and noticed the way personal trauma experienced by adults effected parenting and family relationships. Helping people address anxiety and depression symptoms independent of a trauma made improved my abilities who help people that deal with those symptoms along with other trauma indicators.

Hello, I'm Samantha a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adolescents and adults throughout California and Oregon. I specialize in supporting clients who are managing stress, navigating life transitions, and coping with anxiety. Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether you’re adjusting to a new role, facing uncertainty, or dealing with persistent worry. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a supportive space where you can slow down, reflect, and begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing. My approach is client-centered and collaborative. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—one where your voice is valued and your experiences are respected. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and identify practical, realistic tools that align with your lifestyle and personal goals. Because no two individuals experience stress or anxiety in the same way, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs. I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and build the confidence needed to move forward with intention. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about creating space to grow, heal, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want.

If something in your life feels unsettled, unclear, or not fully aligned, therapy can offer a space to slow down and make sense of things. Sometimes there’s a clear reason people reach out; other times, it’s just a sense that something isn’t quite right. I often work with independent, self-aware and critical thinking people who are sometimes used to figuring things out on their own, but find that insight alone hasn’t shifted things enough. Our work isn’t about rushing toward solutions or following a rigid plan. It’s about creating space to explore what’s beneath the surface. The patterns, emotions, and experiences that may still be shaping your relationships, sense of self, or ability to feel grounded. You don’t need to have a clear goal or the “right” words. You’re welcome to come as you are. My style is warm, present, and engaged grounded in precision and often humor. Together we will build clarity, psychological strength and resilience that supports health, life and growth. If this resonates with you, you’re welcome to reach out and schedule a session to get started.
