Take one minute to think about how your life would change if you stepped into the life you want to create for yourself. Your DREAM life. Maybe the fighting with your spouse would end, or you learn to stop abusing food and love your body, or maybe you actually enjoy spending time with your family...

I appreciate your interest in psychotherapy and commend your effort in finding a therapist. It is an important step to take towards feeling better. I am a clinical psychologist with several years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and families. I have worked with people who have experienced trauma, depression, eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, loss, and life transitions. I work collaboratively with my clients, and am supportive and dedicated to their increased well being. My approach to therapy is to be genuine, open and honest, supportive, and curious.

Hi! Dr. Sheila here. Thanks for clicking on my profile. Before I tell you about me, I’d like to learn about you. Why are you here? Do you want to do better in life but don’t know how to get there or how to get unstuck? Do you want to fill the gap between where you are and where your potential could take you? Are you seeking more harmony and balance in life, more happiness and fulfillment? Maybe you want to lose weight, stop a bad habit, change careers, or get into a relationship? Whatever your reason, having a trusted sounding board, someone to listen to you and help you figure things out is a great idea.

Creating a successful family is the greatest challenge any of us face. So often when our kids enter the teenage years, the dynamics suddenly change. The son or daughter who used to be a part of the family can seem like a different person. The old activities, conversations and rules are different and then journey of raising a teenage begins. As a therapist, high school teacher, and group leader, I have watched adolescents, their parents, and couples go through times of great struggle and come out the other side with a clearer sense of who they are in the world .

Are you feeling stuck? Are you questioning retirement, looking for a "third act" in your life? Is your relationship stagnant or in crisis? Have you ended one addiction, only to have another pop up? Are you the adult child of a narcissist and having issues with relationships and career?Are you a partner or parent of an addict or person in recovery?Are you ready for change?

Life these days can be quite high paced and complex, and navigating through it can be a very strenuous experience for many of us. I see clients from all walks of life- for numerous and various reasons, and I make it a point to never define a certain standard of norm- as one simply does not exist. My job is not that of leading you to a certain destination- as your journey is always your own. Rather, as you chart your new path- I merely have the clinical privilege of joining in on a small portion of that experience, while providing you with a safe and nurturing haven in which you may rest, reflect, and with time- flourish and grow.

I teach couples tools and I give homework. My background is in Positive Psychology. People describe me as warm, down-to-earth and they say I have a good sense of humor. I think couples therapy should be uplifting -- and show results. I help all kinds of couples: married and unmarried, straight, gay, and couples soon to marry. I'm dedicated to helping couples overcome their problems. I'm even-handed and I find solutions. (And on a personal note, I've been happily married for 30 years). I combine Positive Psychology, CBT, mindfulness, Gottman, and the best of contemporary psychology. I taught in the medical school at UCLA.

Making the decision to change your life takes courage. It's a big step to have decided that you want more from life and to be pursuing something different. Personal change, whether it involves emotions, thoughts or behaviors, can be difficult and scary. It can also be exciting and incredibly rewarding. Engaging in a therapeutic relationship can provide a safe and nurturing space. Together, we'll explore your inner world to find clarity, to understand your self-sabotaging patterns, identify the issues standing in your way and work to promote growth, emotional balance and self-acceptance, allowing you to become the best version of you

Our experiences shape us and how we look at the world. Often times they give us a sense of strength and direction in our lives, but other times we are confronted with obstacles that keep us from reaching our goals. Together we can explore these obstacles and create a better understanding of how you can work through them, leading to more satisfying experiences and more confidence in your direction in life.

Are you struggling to put your life back to together after the birth of your baby? Are you just not feeling the way you expected? Or, like yourself? Are you iritable and overwhelmed? Possibly your relationship with your partner is suffering as well. Are these feelings robbing you of the joy of being with your infant? If so, you may be suffering from postpartum stress.

Nurturing, strength-based and compassionate, I am an active and directive participant in my clients' work. We together will identify what brings you to treatment, be it depression, anxiety, PTSD, a history of abuse, or simply discomfort. We will articulate where in your life you are struggling- interpersonally, at work, in school, with your family or in your marriage, and develop goals to relieve that distress. It can be challenging to choose to participate in therapy, and I work to create a safe, honest and productive environment so we can engage and address the issues that are challenging you.

A warm welcome to individuals, couples or families! I specialize in helping you heal wholly —- emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. You may feel down, anxious, or betrayed. Perhaps you are stuck in the same old patterns. Your childhood wounds or traumas, small or large, may be holding you back from your full potential. You may desire more insight into yourself or your relationships beyond your numbers on the Enneagram or Myers-Briggs. I believe that we can work collaboratively to move from a pain cycle to a cycle of peaceful well-being --- shalom.

Are you the "good girl" who works hard to do everything right, often at the expense of your own needs and well-being? Do you hide behind a big smile and an easy-going personality to cover up the pain and sadness you’re feeling on the inside? People in your life likely think you've got it figured out--a good career, solid friendships, maybe even a happy partnership and family--but inside you crave a sense of control and often feel a confusing mix of anxiety, shame, nagging self-doubt, anger, overwhelm and a sense of other-ness that comes with feeling alone in the world.

Do you find yourself having frequent distressing thoughts, memories, emotions, that hold you back from living a life of fulfillment? Or asking the questions: how do I become happier and more self confident? These are dilemmas and questions that many of my clients have encountered. I am Danny Liu, a clinical psychologist and I am passionate about helping you find motivation and direction.

I am interested in your unique life journey, your struggles and your deepest longings. Therapy helps transform limiting patterns that keep us stuck and unable to experience life in a more fulfilling and nourishing way. With a compassionate and collaborative presence, I support others in reconnecting with themselves, deepening relationships, and feeling aligned with their true nature. Uncovering obstacles and connecting with inner guidance helps alleviate suffering and makes room for new possibilities and enlivening choices to emerge.

I am a certified life coach and help my clients gather a life they love! Are you looking for more fulfillment and balance in your life? Feeling like you need to reconnect with your life purpose or find it? Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Longing to make change in your life but don't know where to begin? Is something inside of you longing to be heard? Are you looking to deepen connections and strengthen your relationships? Looking for a career change? Want more abundance and joy? Going through some challenging choices and feeling stuck?

Sadness and anxiety can be sirens calling for change. Things that once seemed unremarkable may take on a new light with maturity. It is striking how much transformation is possible when attention is given to previously overlooked aspects of life including relationships, personal identities, creative projects and daily routines. I will support you in navigating challenging milestones and life passages, from traversing adolescence to individuating into adulthood, finding a way through midlife transformation, and grappling with issues of aging and loss.

Hi! I am Rachel and I am a modern millennial psychotherapist based in Los Angeles. I work with YOU to help you create small shifts that create BIG IMPACT in your life! I work with my clients on anxiety, depression, wellness and self-care, and relationship (s) with self and others in the face of life's constant transitions and changes.

Utilizing EMDR & other approaches, I work with individuals who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as those going through life transitions looking for change. Because healing and growth occur interpersonally, therapy can be an impactful addition to one's life during difficult and challenging times. If you're feeling overwhelmed by emotions or stress, or feel like you're current life is being impacted by past events, there is absolutely hope out there. Many of the leading brain-body therapies now available are targeted for these types of experiences.
