We work together to help you learn skills to reduce anxiety, overcome panic and phobias, and
depression
, as well as help you resolve the underlying issues that created the anxiety in the first place.
Are you feeling out of control of your stress and anxiety? It is difficult to get through life, achieve your goals, and be your authentic self when you are struggling with severe, chronic anxiety, worry, panic attacks, phobias or social anxiety, along with the accompanying
depression
. You may have already tried medications and learned techniques to quiet your mind but if you are still anxious, and also
depressed
, it is a good idea to consider a form of therapy targeted to these issues.

I specialize in anxiety,
depression

You may be seeking therapy for many reasons, and it can be overwhelming to begin the process of therapy. As your therapist, I will engage you in becoming comfortable with exploring your inner self. My work with you is aimed at increasing your awareness of processes that lead to suffering and ultimately increasing your enjoyment and satisfaction in life. We will explore what is working for you and where you get stuck, how you relate to others and yourself, and your coping mechanisms, which all affect how you're feeling on a daily basis. Learning to understand and flow with your emotions will probably be a focus in our work together.
Claudia Young
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Verified
I use a tailored approach to help individuals struggling with eating disorders/disordered eating,
depression
, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship/dating issues, and grief.
I believe what leads people to seek therapy is falling into the same, unhelpful patterns over and over again. These patterns can show up in our relationship to ourselves, to food, to substances, and to people. I approach therapy with the genuine belief that all people are worthy and capable of breaking these patterns and creating healthy relationships with themselves, with food and with others. My clients report the ability to identify and to challenge negative self-beliefs that get in their way and to create a new set of skills that enable them to build resiliency and an empowered send of self.

IT TAKES COURAGE to reach out for support and guidance when we feel lost, distressed, confused or uncertain. My goal is to meet you - in whatever emotional state you find yourself - with empathy and acceptance, and provide a safe, caring and consistent therapeutic relationship in which we collaborate on identifying and moving toward the CHANGES AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES that matter most to you. I have worked with clients since 2010, tailoring the counseling experience to each individual or couple's unique strengths and needs and drawing from a wide range of psychological theories and healing modalities. My approach is also informed by my PERSONAL EXPERIENCE being treated for major
depression
and anxiety. NO EMOTIONAL CHALLENGE IS TOO BIG TO WORK ON, and it would be my privilege to accompany you on your journey toward a healthier, more satisfying life.

Healing emotional wounds, whether due to low sense of self-worth, loss of a loved one, life transitions, or childhood trauma, can seem like a scary process. Often,
depressed
mood, anxious distress, irritability and grief can begin to manifest themselves physically in the form of muscle tension, headaches, nausea, and rapid heart beat. And, no matter how much one tries to "get over it" and think positive, those negative and worrying thoughts continue to creep in, impairing sleep, one's social life and ability to complete day-to-day tasks.
Victoria Le Beau
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
During my 20 years as a psychotherapist I have helped many people learn to cope with lives that have become overwhelming.
I help people develop success in work, family, and love. I have a broad range of experience working with adults and couples. Their symptoms range from
depression
, panic/anxiety, life changes, traumatic events, grief, relationship problems, and unresolved childhood issues.
Ken Seman
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW-R, SAP
Verified
Many of my clients suffer from anxiety,
depression
, adjustment difficulties, substance abuse and relationship conflicts.
It is my experience after practicing over 24 years that it is not so much what you think that is important rather it is how you feel. We are motivated by our feelings. A thought is usually not sufficient to initiate lasting change unless it is connected to a feeling. Psychotherapy is usually sought when the individual is in crisis and feels overwhelmed. When an individual is overwhelmed it is like being overloaded with more hurt then can be lived with. The therapist is a catalyst to help the individual integrate their feelings and thoughts and to live in the present.

Depression Therapists
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy by depression therapists in Culver City. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
