Welcome! I'm Melinna. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California. I received my Master's Degree from USC and have been practicing for 10 years. I want to commend you for taking the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to their mental health issues. I focus on helping clients develop coping skills, assertive communication, boundaries with themselves and those around them, and gain the necessary tools that can help improve their quality of life. Therapy can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.

My goal in my psychotherapy practice is to help others rid themselves of fear and embrace love. When you become an active partner in your healing, barriers that prevent you from living your life to the fullest disappear. Through Emotional Release techniques, attachment-based therapy, and an exploration of internal family systems, we get to the heart of what is holding you back, and what your greatest purpose/potential is in this lifetime. Sometimes the way we think and talk about our lives limits our choices and perspectives. I help you recognize what is not working for you, and provide tools and practices to build your self-confidence, trust in your own insight, and strengthen your ability to let go and speak your truth. If you are ready to take control of your own life and do everything on your bucket list: let's work together.

In navigating life's twists and turns, many of my potential clients find themselves at crossroads, uncertain of the next step forward.

What sets me apart is my commitment to seeing each person as an individual. Lutishia's approach to therapy is rooted in the power of a simple conversation.

I began working in mental health 23 years ago and have worked in community-based therapy, lockdown facilities, in-home therapy, and different schools. I have found over time that the most rewarding factor of doing this work is giving people comfort and support, not only solutions. No matter what type of therapy the client prefers, the environment is based individually on the client. I do not press the pace of the session. Normally, there's a check, but other than that, it depends on the pace the client feels comfortable with for that session.
