I treat individuals with Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, OCD, Relationship conflicts, Adjustment to life stressors, Depression, Divorce, Parenting, and Co-parenting issues.

Hi, I'm Jeffrey Spike, AKA Spike the Psych. Unlike several Tele-Health providers who overcharge, I'm certified, I charge less, and I'm excellent at what I do. I've been a licensed educational psychologist since 2012, while working full time for LAUSD since 2005. I was the recipient of the Los Angeles Association of School Psychologists Outstanding Psychologist of the Year award. With 20 years of experience, I have successfully identified the primary strengths and needs of students with Autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, emotional and behavior difficulties; and I get them the accommodations and support they deserve for success.

Are you struggling with anxiety, constant worry, overthinking, low energy, and/or physical symptoms (nausea, stomachaches, shortness of breath, headaches, etc.)? Is your mental health getting in the way of your daily functioning? Do you want to work on your mental health, but don't know where to start? If so, then I am here to help. My practice consists of looking at each individual from a holistic matter to better understand all the aspects that are causing distress to your life.

My passion and purpose in this line of work is to educate and equip to safeguard the pure vibrancy of what childhood should be. To not get snagged in the online world. To not feel lost or misunderstood at school. To assist parents who have lost their ability to respond effectively to the challenges that now confront them. Sometimes, often times we are harboring a lot of our own unhealed pain that is now standing in the way of our best interests and the best interests of our children. To provide a safe place to share doubts and worry to regroup in a peaceful setting no matter what point of the lifespan or healing you are on.

I believe people can be so much more than the sum of their life experiences and the roles they have adapted to. Maybe it feels like life has gotten too hard because it's filled with anxieties or depression. Maybe you feel trapped by an addiction or that the life you are living is someone else's script. I believe I can help. Why? I have over 20 years of personal recovery from drugs and alcohol along with years of experience and education in the mental health field.

Need change? If you’re searching for a safe space to explore your identities, learn how to manage life stressors, deal with emotional baggage that weighs you down, or equip yourself with tools to reach your goals, you’ve taken an important first step towards change. In the space we’ll build together during our work, I’ll strive to help you recognize patterns, learn about yourself, and develop skills, knowledge, and awareness that allow you to move towards the best version of your life and yourself.

I am a bilingual and bicultural psychologist and it is an honor to support those that are on the path of healing and growth. I specialize in working with people of all ages that suffer from anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, and intimate partner violence. I also work with children and their caregivers to strengthen their attachment. In therapy I introduce the concepts of how being connected to our cultural traditions, values and ancestors can lead to a happier life. “Sana”, means “heal” in Spanish. It is my hope to help individuals, couples, and families heal through learning how to live more peaceful and fulfilling lives.

Hi there, I'm Gisela! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California (LMFT) and I have been working in the counseling field since 2014. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including trauma, anger, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. In my work with clients, I use some leading psychological modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and psychodynamic. I would describe my style as warm and supportive. I will support you in finding the root of the problem and heal any parts of you that need to be healed. I look forward to helping you in any way I can!

It is a challenging experience finding a therapist. It is challenging because you have to be brave enough to seek therapy even though there is stigma, fear, and doubt that you may hear from others or even your own mind that says to not even try. To further make it challenging, you may have a lengthier search finding a therapist who fits with you personally after coming up with the courage to even meet with one. So I'd like to thank you for seeking therapy in general and also thank you for allowing me to share some details of my practice so that you might consider us working together.

I'm a licensed clinical therapist in California with 5 years of professional work experience. My therapy style is mixed, although pleasant and educational. I believe in being truthful with my clients. I believe in treating them with respect and compassion. However, I’m able to tailor sessions and treatment plans to meet your unique needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life. Making a decision to take the first steps towards a change can be scary. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

Everyone deserves a place to feel seen, heard and fully known; a place to explore the parts of yourself that need care and extra attention. As a therapist, it is an incredible honor to be able to sit with you as you begin the hard work of allowing all the parts of yourself…the parts that have been tucked away, the light and dark, to take up space and experience lasting healing. I approach therapy through a wholistic lens that gives attention to mind, body, and spirit.

I work with individuals who are looking to gain insight into themselves and improve their quality of life. I seek to understand each individual holistically, including their backgrounds and the strengths they already possess to provide an individualized approach. I believe that establishing a strong alliance with my clients is essential to getting the most out of therapy and creating lasting change. Through this alliance, I partner with my clients to explore and address thought and behavior patterns that serve as barriers to enjoying life fully.

I can help you make sense and meaning of your thoughts and feelings. I'm dedicated to the work of helping you change your emotional life by changing the way you think about your thoughts, feelings and relationships. By deeply listening to your experience of attachment and intimacy problems associated with anxiety or depressive mood disorders or the effects of trauma related to loss or family dysfunction, I can help you feel seen, known, and able to know yourself and others.

Feeling worried all the time? Feeling down or depressed? Dealing with negative thinking that wont go away? Having difficulties in your relationships? Struggling to maintain a balance between responsibilities and everyday challenges? Let me help you! I will guide you to effectively manage anxiety, depression or elevated stress that may arise when dealing with past or present relationship issues, family conflict, divorce, separation, parenting difficulties, trauma, illness, loss, transitions or other life stressors. I offer individual, couples, or family therapy services using brief or long term approaches specific to your needs.

My professional endeavors in the government and private sectors served a diverse population in the state of California including inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings. I developed expertise in treating anxiety, depression and addiction. In psychotherapy I develop a nurturing and supportive relationship. My psychotherapeutic approach is collaborative and action based. I received certifications in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist at Lifespan who specializes in psychological evaluations for attention, learning and memory problems in adults, as well as the treatment of insomnia. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of emotional and interpersonal issues including depression, anxiety, panic, and relationship distress. I have many years of experience providing achievement, psychodiagnostic, and neuropsychological testing to adults. I also specialize in pre-surgical evaluations for bariatric, spinal cord stimulation, and breast augmentation surgeries.

Navigating life and change can be challenging. Often times we need someone to help guide us through personal growth and transformation. My goal is to fully integrated the whole person, building on the strengths and values you possess whether you are working life transitions, depression, health related, relationship or parenting issues. I enjoy collaborating with clients while helping them gain insight into their own process to help them reach a place of balance and harmony in their life.
