Therapists in Thousand Oaks, CA

Is your child experiencing problems at school, difficulty making or keeping friends, tantrums, constant worrying or nightmares? I have a passion for working with children and families, and I'm here to help. There is so much pressure today to be a "perfect" parent, and admitting that you need support can be difficult. My goal is to create a safe space for you and your child to work together to problem-solve and get through challenging times.

I am Dr. Jennifer Nevitt and I am a licensed psychologist in California. I think that clients can benefit from permanent change by using several approaches, but mostly about how we think about our situation, our future, and actually changing the way our brain is wired to get the best results using positive psychology that helps us see the world in a positive way, and respond to stress differently as soon as treatment begins. I use several approaches when providing psychotherapy. I am trained in psychodynamic, family systems, mindfulness, client-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy, and more.

I treat individuals for depression, anxiety, trauma, issues related to aging and life transitions, issues related to grief and loss, and a number of other life stressors. I work with all ages and stages of development, including older adults, and have specialized training to work with young children as well. I enjoy helping people through understanding the various parts of life.

Although I work with children and adolescents individually, working with them alone is not sufficient. As a parent myself, I am very aware of what it is like for me to entrust my childrens' care into the hands of another. In order for treatment to be successful and for my clients to feel secure in the treatment process, I thus believe it is essential to incorporate working with parents into the treatment of the child. In addition to specializing in treating children and adolescents, I also offer services to college-aged individuals and older adults.

I imagine that on most days we all work hard to do the best for our children. No matter how hard some of their challenging behaviors may be; you have love, patience, understanding, and most of all you continue to try to be creative and consistent. But in the end, something just is not working. You continue to ask your friends and family for support and advice, yet you are growing more stressed and tired by the minute. I can help your adolescent come to understand, and work through their struggles and challenges.Adolescence can be a time in life that can be complicated, demanding, and sometimes confusing for both you and your teen.

I specialize in treating treating high achieving individuals & couples, with perfectionist tendencies. My priority is your emotional safety.

My name is Carol Fowlkes, and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, CA seeing clients via Telehealth. I work with adults and specialize in depression, anxiety, PTSD, and ADHD utilizing holistic interventions and cognitive behavior therapy. I have found my approach to be a good fit for individuals currently at an impasse in life and are preparing for change. When change is happening, we oftentimes need to re-assess the tools we have used in the past and check in with our needs. The change we are not prepared for can take the form of anxiety, depression, and stress which impacts our overall functioning.
