Have you been experiencing feelings of confusion or uncertainty in your life? Do you struggle with clarity in your personal and professional goals, feeling weighed down by responsibilities or paralyzed by fear of failure? If so, you’re not alone, and it’s okay to seek guidance and support to navigate your challenges, aiming for personal growth and a better work-life balance. With a desire for empowerment and lasting change, you want practical tools and accountability to help you achieve a fulfilling life. Ultimately, you'd like to crave a sense of purpose and connection with the people that understands your journey. As an LMFT specializing in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help you change your relationship with anxiety. Instead of fighting a tiring battle to "control" your thoughts, we will work together to: Unhook from fear- Clarify your values and Take action. I understand how challenging it can be to feel overwhelmed and uncertain about the next steps in your life. If you’re ready to take the next step toward clarity and empowerment, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can explore your goals and craft a plan that works for you. I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I like to help people, whether that be with anxiety, depression, trauma, or neurodiversity. Let's work together to move towards your goals. I've worked in a variety of settings through my career, which has allowed me to help people with wide range of needs and diagnoses. Whether you're an individual looking to process and meet for talk therapy, or a couple wanting to build communication skills, or someone interested in trying Brainspotting, which a brain-body alternative therapy, let's work together.

I feel my primary responsibility as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist is to foster a calm, safe and trusting environment with all clients through a warm and non-judgmental relationship. Therapy is a “we” program. My former career tracks in communication and education gives me the ability to connect with clients from various backgrounds and cultures with empathy and support to help you meet your goals. As a private practice and community mental health therapist, I was able to experience working clinically with children, youth, adults and couples. I use an individually tailored approach to therapy matching the needs of each client in the present moment.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I’m here to help you navigate life’s ups and downs in a way that feels authentic to you. I believe that you are the expert in your own life. No matter what you’re facing, my goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. Together, we’ll work toward the life you want to create, moving at a pace that feels comfortable, so you can rediscover a sense of joy, clarity and strength.

If you are looking for structured CBT or skills-based homework, I may not be the right fit. Therapy with me involves examining avoidance and ambivalence as they arise (I’ll tend to be more direct with you when emotional or mental patterns like that emerge). Most people don’t need more advice. They need space to slow down enough to hear what’s actually happening inside them. My work is less about fixing and more about listening; not just to the words, but to what’s underneath them. The pace of our conversations will be different from the rest of your life: slower, steadier, more honest. My goal is to help you come into contact with yourself again, to notice what’s true and what you really want.

My goal is to help individuals build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and create a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Hi there! I’m Shanel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California. I specialize in helping adults heal their relationship with food, body image, and themselves. If you’re exploring therapy for an eating disorder or disordered eating, I want you to know this upfront: you’re not alone, you’re not “too much,” and you don’t need to have everything figured out to start. Recovery isn’t linear, and it definitely doesn’t require perfection — just willingness, honesty, and support. That’s where I come in. I work with people who are navigating restriction, compulsive exercise, binging/purging, body image distress, chronic dieting, and the exhausting mental load that comes with feeling at war with your own body. I also support clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and big life transitions that often intertwine with food and body concerns. Above all, I aim to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and free to show up exactly as you are — messy, curious, hopeful, unsure, or anywhere in between.

I am a bilingual (English/Farsi) and multicultural Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I have over 10 years of training, and experience in my field.

'¨ I have experience providing bilingual services to teens, adults, older adults, Family, and a couples in a variety of settings including community mental health, inpatient/outpatient, and college counseling settings. I began my clinical work at South Bay Guidance Center and Sharp Mesa Vista's Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Intensive Outpatient Program. I completed an APA-approved Pre-doctoral and post-doctoral internship at Institute for Multicultural Counseling and Education Services.'¨'¨I provide Individual, couples, and family therapy for teens, adults and older adults, and specializes in the treatment of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, identity conflict, trauma, anger management, emotion dysregulation, perfectionism, substance use and difficult life transitions. I help clients find their inner resiliency by using integrated approach which includes evidenced-based therapy centered on the following frameworks: psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical-Behavioral, Acceptance and Commitment, and Mindful Self-Compassion therapy. Everyone has the capacity for true positive change. I value the complexity of people's unique diverse backgrounds and life values/goals, and use these to guide treatment to help clients reach their potential. My goal is to help you understand your past and develop new ways of dealing with life challenges to create a healthier present. I believe that the best therapy is done when the client and therapist have a strong working relationship. Developing a safe, trusting relationship and working collaboratively creates an environment in which this change can happen more quickly and effectively. I view myself as a caring change agent ready to facilitate the process in a beneficial and meaningful way.

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist who works with thoughtful individuals and couples who work hard yet still feel anxious. Many are looking for more than surface-level coping skills—they want deeper understanding and lasting change. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or big questions about meaning, purpose, and identity—often while holding demanding roles in their personal or professional lives. In addition to my clinical work, I teach couples counseling as an adjunct professor at California State University, Northridge (CSUN). Teaching keeps me grounded in both theory and practice, and it reflects how much I genuinely enjoy helping people understand relationships more deeply—whether that’s learning how conflict works, how attachment shapes connection, or how to communicate with more honesty and care. I also bring an unconventional but deeply human element into my work: humor. I’m a comedian outside the therapy room, and when used thoughtfully, humor can help lower defensiveness, build trust, and make difficult conversations feel more approachable. Therapy doesn’t have to be heavy all the time to be meaningful. I have particular experience working with healthcare workers and others in high-pressure systems, including those balancing responsibility, burnout, and emotional fatigue while still needing to function at a high level. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded, integrating attachment-based, somatic, mindfulness-based, and practical strategies tailored to each client. Above all, I aim to create a space where people feel safe, understood, and free to explore what really matters to them—at their own pace, and with curiosity rather than judgment.

As a therapist, I feel tremendous gratitude to be able to support ALL individuals on their journey of healing. I aim to use a compassionate and strength-based approach, which allows me to maintain an open mind and heart throughout our work together while focusing on the strengths and skill you already have. I practice holistically to look at the different aspects of the mind, body, emotions, and spirit to find what is needed to feel more peace and comfort in your life. Throughout our time together, I’m committed to showing up with a positive, kind, respectful, nonjudgmental and caring attitude.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and build stronger, healthier relationships.

Hello, I am Maria Morales, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, born and raised in San Fernando Valley. I received my Undergraduate Degree in Liberal Studies from Mount Saint Mary's University in 2010 and continued my education at the University of Southern California receiving my Master in Social Work and Public Health in 2015. Establishing rapport is essential in psychotherapy as well as maintaining confidentiality. I often draws on my shared cultural experiences with clients, fostering an environment where openness and vulnerability are encouraged. I am mindful of the cultural nuances in communication styles that may affect trust and disclosure while we work together in therapy to understand the "why" we need therapy to change life patterns that just aren't working anymore.

I believe that therapy can be Fun, Inspiring, and Healing (with hopefully some good LAUGHS if possible.)

My life/travel experiences (volunteered in an orphanage in Nepal, worked at Mother Teresa's House for the Destitute and Dying in Calcutta, India, photographed the Rohingya genocide in Bangladesh), have shaped and informed my humanity to serve clients as a therapist now.
