My name is Shant Bardakjian and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Glendale, California. I currently work with children, adolescents and adults within the greater Los Angeles area. My approach to therapy is tailored to the client’s needs. I enter into therapy with whatever the client brings into the session. If you need a creative approach to solve your problems, then I would use Narrative Therapy. If you need to fix your problem right away, then I would use Solution Focused Therapy. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness. I use an eclectic approach with a person centered lens that can be flexible for whatever need is brought into the room. My communication style is calm and approachable. I would like my clients to feel at ease in sharing whatever is on their heart without fear of judgment. I decided to become a therapist because I have wanted to help people discover their best selves. I have been drawn to helping people discover their innate ability to heal past whatever is keeping them stuck in life. My aim is for whoever works with me to be able to define a goal that can be accomplished and for trust to be gradually built within the therapeutic relationship. In this way, the progress that is seen in therapy will in turn translate to improvements in multiple areas of your life. In our first session together, you can expect the primary focus to be for me to hear your story of what brought you to therapy. The first session is to determine if there is an initial connection and also questions that would enable me to better understand what would work best for you as treatment progresses.

Hi There, I'm Jarad. It's great to meet you! Here's just a little about me. Prior to becoming a licensed clinical social worker, I worked in education and education policy for almost six years. I helped open schools and pass state and local laws to support children in their educational journey. What was missing for me, however, was what to do for children whose mental health needs were not being met. We could build beautiful schools, have amazing teachers, but if a child experienced trauma, had a death in the family or had parents going through a divorce, I often found myself at a loss as to what to do, and thus my journey into exploring mental health began. Since graduating from the University of Southern California’s School of Social Work in 2013, I have worked with clients from all backgrounds and circumstances. I’ve counseled seniors struggling with adult children to new brand new parents adjusting to parenthood. I’ve helped children and adults process grief and trauma as well as helping to monitor and aid individuals and families in crisis.

I am a Somatic Psychotherapist, with a focus on empowering women to claim themselves in life. I focus on a woman’s relationship to herself (or their self) and how they respond to their inner child, inner self or selves, their inner experience, their close relationships, their community and the world. When our collaboration is working, between you and I, we can find the patterns in your life that keep you stuck in ruts outside your awareness.

Renowned psychologist Carl Rogers once stated that the process of a ‘good life’ involves stretching, growing, and becoming more and more of one's potential. He argued that the individual who chooses growth as their compass in life is truly an inwardly free individual (Rogers, 1961). Inspired by Rogers’ humanistic and timeless outlook, I focus my work with clients on expanding their process of growth into an engaging endeavor rather than a strenuous one. I believe that every individual has tremendous inner resources that need support in coming to light. My goal is to make every client feel empowered to create the best life for themselves individually and in their relationships.

Is confusion, sadness and overwhelm taking up more of your time? Do you need help making sense of these feelings and understanding yourself and your world? I specialize in working with high functioning adults, age 20 and above, whose dysfunctional behavioral patterns prevent them from leading more joyful, empowered lives. Perhaps your family’s in your ear all the time, or your friends or spouse. Or your relationship is changing and you don't know how to make it better. And you bend to make them happy, but are then resentful and unfulfilled. You’re doing your best to manage anxious or depressed feelings, but family or relationship conflicts are challenging. My approach is engaging, compassionate and attentive. I slow you down so that you can hear, sense and understand yourself in different ways. We explore the parts of you that make you uncomfortable, and move through your pain and vulnerabilities. Through emotional and thought processes, we move your closed off parts closer to you, as your feelings towards them change. Life can begin to feel lighter, more manageable, more at ease. Inside each of us, there is a deep need to align with our core values and beliefs, with our self worth and truth. We’ll identify behaviors stemming from your pain and help you align with actions coming from your worth.

I am a helper. And I help people who are currently struggling with depressive, anxious, and other mental illness-related symptoms. I help them expand their mindfulness, improve their assertive communication skills, and view themselves, and, consequently, the rest of the world, as living beings worthy of love and respect. I don't merely believe in therapy, I know first-hand the beneficial power it can provide. Before seeking mental health services for myself, not only did I suffer from low self-esteem and other depressive symptoms, I also suffered from severely disturbing panic attacks. I am grateful each and every day that I no longer suffer from those symptoms. This is just one of many reasons why mental health is the greatest passion of my life.

Hi There. My name is Mimi. I am a licensed Psychotherapist. I am here to help you grow, identify and resolve emotional and psychological obstacles that are preventing you from achieving the quality of life you deserve and desire. My integrative approach to therapy combines a variety of techniques to accommodate different individual needs to assist you in making choices that will help you achieve a fuller and happier life in a non judgmental, compassionate, warm, and safe environment where you will be heard and accepted. You may feel lost, empty, anxious, alone, with no place to turn to, but as we work together, I will lead you to explore those wounds and emotions that are creating the pain you feel. Clinging to old patterns and emotions is familiar and safe, but it does not serve us well. However, as we walk together, your life will begin to have the purpose you are seeking and deserve as you let go of old emotions and experiences. Taking the first step to self understanding can be intimidating and it takes courage to embark on a journey for change where you will be in control of your life and to all issues overwhelming you with anxious feelings and overwhelming thoughts. You are not alone, you can do it, and I will support you all the way as we work together!

If you’re looking for a therapist who will actually listen—who won’t dismiss your concerns or pathologize your pain—you’re in the right place. Maybe you're wondering if you have ADHD, autism, or anxiety. Maybe you've been masking for years and don’t know where to start. Maybe you're carrying trauma, grief, or a deep sense that something has always felt a little off. I work with people who’ve spent too long feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or minimized—and are ready for something different. You don’t need a perfect narrative. You don’t need to show up polished. You don’t even need to be sure what you need yet. With over 10 years of experience, I specialize in working with neurodivergent and emotionally complex clients—including first responders, trauma survivors, and members of the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. I have a Master’s in Clinical Counseling, a Master’s in Forensic Psychology, and I’m currently completing a Ph.D. in Forensic Psychology. I combine clinical insight with curiosity, humor, and a belief in your capacity to grow—even if it’s messy.

I'm a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. My approach focuses on developing awareness of how our thoughts, emotions and behaviors are connected, fostering resilience, and empowering clients to work through their challenges. I enjoy creating a non-judgmental and affirming space for adults with short-term or long-standing mental health and emotional distress. Feelings of anxiety and the need for isolation can be internal cues to request reconnection to what makes our lives meaningful. Ideally, enjoying the moment, knowing how to soothe overwhelming feelings, and engaging our sparkling personalities helps us feel alive. My clients enjoy my approach of exploring practical strategies by using guiding questions. Exploring thoughts and emotional pain benefits from curiosity and compassion. I am also trained in EMDR, which can be supportive in reframing negative belief systems and releasing trauma.

I have been working as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for the last 14 years and have both a master's degree and doctoral degree in applied clinical psychology. I have worked in the community with individuals, youth with high-risk behaviors, and military families. I specialize in working with individuals with anxiety and/or depression, women's issues, substance abuse and recovery, trauma (PTSD or PTS) , military and veterans, first responders and those facing relationship or life transition concerns. While working with my clients I focus on the whole person, pulling forward your strengths and wisdom to solve life's challenges. I use solution-focused, cognitive behavioral and emotion-focused interventions. I also have seven years experience working with people outdoors in nature. I have a certificate in nutrition for mental health and believe in holistic treatment involving mind, body, and spirit. I will work with you to develop a treatment plan that is right for you as an individual. If you want to work holistically, we will develop a plan to address all three aspects, and if you don't prefer to work holistically, I will tailor your treatment to your specific interests. I value the rapport I develop with my clients above all things. The nature of the therapeutic relationship is the catalyst and holding space that creates safety to do all future work together. Choosing the right therapist who has a personality you are comfortable with is of utmost importance. Please reach out to me for a free phone consultation and let's find out if we can do some great work together to solve life's many challenges.

I always felt that I was called to help others. Growing up in South Los Angeles, I developed a sense of culture and community amongst Black and Brown people as well as a respect for the struggles of BIPOC. I grew up around artists, musicians, poets, leaders, givers, and eccentrics from all walks of life. During this time, I discovered how much I enjoyed listening to people, problem-solving, and motivating others to succeed and explore their authentic selves. I started off as a mentor in undergrad, inspiring other young people of color to attend college and think outside of the box in regards to their futures. I continued working with children, teens, and adults with special needs until I landed a position as an intern at a non-profit mental health agency in South Los Angeles. After I obtained my license as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I continued to grow as a clinician, supervisor, and manager at the nonprofit while also taking on teen and adult clients in the private practice setting. I am now pursuing my dream to work Full Time as a Private Practice Therapist.

I am Andrea Marez. I attended the University of La Verne for my undergraduate degree and Simmons University for my Master's Degree in Social Work. I started my career by providing support to victims of domestic violence and have since branched out into working with individuals (children, adolescents and adults) with depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, and family relationships. I utilize a variety of treatment modalities throughout sessions depending on the client's needs, but specifically engage in the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My hope for my clients is to work towards getting to know themselves better while using a client centered approach that is warm and empathetic. In my free time, I enjoy going to the beach with my kids and husband and relaxing in the warm sun. I love trying new foods and truly abide by work-life balance. Contact me if you would like a free consultation and explore if this could be the right fit for you or a loved one. I am here to listen and provide the help and guidance you need to change negative behavior patterns and begin taking the steps in the right direction.
