My name is Palei and I’m a licensed marriage family therapist in the state of California. I’ve been practicing for the past 10 years and I utilize cognitive behavior therapy as my main modality. I have a passion for helping others and providing a safe space for people to process and understand the complexity that is themselves. I consider myself more of an unorthodox therapist, as I will self disclose when necessary and appropriate because I want my clients to know that I’m a real person and not a pretentious clinician who doesn’t understand where they’re coming from, as I have many life experiences from my own childhood to even now that have impacted my sense of empathy and understanding to a point where I have many lived experiences that make me very authentic and genuine when working with clients. I have a level of understanding that I think is much deeper than most and I believe what sets me apart is my positive attitude that has been heavily influenced by the utilization of the very skills I teach my clients that I’ve learned in my own personal journey with therapy. I “practice what I preach”, so I never ask of my client things that I wouldn’t ask of myself, and I absolutely utilize these skills on a daily basis to achieve the life worth living.

Choosing a therapist can be challenging and confusing and one might ask, what does therapy involve? From my experience Therapy involves developing a very special relationship between a professionally licensed practitioner called a therapist and one or more people seeking to collaboratively define and achieve constructive change. This relationship is referred to as the therapeutic bond and is considered one of the most important parts of successful therapy. As such our first step in therapy is, from day one, to form that bond by establishing a trusting, non-shaming environment where any child, adolescent, person, couple, or family will feel safe and sense the therapist is on their side, listens and understands. Therapy on my behalf will involve empathy, genuineness, and mindful acceptance while we collaboratively establish therapeutic changes / goals you feel are both desired and are ready to achieve. Our sessions will involve the language of change as perceived by you the client(s), and constructive finding of solutions. You will be able to present your story without fear of rejection or shame. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, families, and am very effective with middle schoolers, adolescents young adults, and people working in the stressful world of business, hi tech and active military service members, and veterans. During my time as a therapist I have built a reputation as caring, effective and someone who has my client’s best interests at heart. If you feel a connection or that contacting me could be of value, I would be very happy to hear from you. Until such time I wish you the very best in your quest. Sincerely, Mike Michael Durrigan Ca.
