Most of the people I work with are told they need to be different than they are. Sometimes they get that message explicitly, always they get that message in the way people treat them. Therapy with me doesn’t aim to make you different. We’ll work to help you navigate the world while being healthy and fully you. Specific issues my clients are navigating include: being outside the gender binary, being non-monogamous, being neurodivergent (mostly autistic and ADHD), or being deep in grief.

Hello. I'm Julie Cicileo, an LCSW in Long Beach, CA, with over 30 years’ experience counseling individuals and couples. I'm glad you've reached out for help. Are you feeling irritable, anxious, angry? Do you sometimes find yourself saying things and/or reacting in ways you later regret? Are you short-tempered, resentful and unreasonable?

I specialize in counseling for adults with relationship and addiction issues.

Adulting is hard! You might feel overwhelmed with balancing work and home life, causing you to forget to care for yourself and your body’s needs. Sometimes, you might even turn to emotional eating or binge eating to deal with all the stress life keeps throwing at you and feel too ashamed to talk about it or seek support from others. But don't worry, we understand! My name is Keesha Clark, and I have dedicated my life's work to helping women and Black and BIPOC individuals improve their body image, heal their relationship with food, learn to prioritize self-care and honor their body’s needs.

I believe the answers to most of our life questions come from within us. Therapy provides you with a safe, non-judgmental, supportive space for you to better understand yourself, where you’re at, where you want to be, and how to get there. As a therapist, my role is to help you navigate through these processes using a client-centered, strength-based approach. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, and those experiencing life transitions.

Welcome to my practice. I have about 15 years of clinical experience and have been featured on NBC/KCAL/HLN as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

I currently only offer online and in-home therapy. When we are in the midst of crisis we can question our abilities to overcome. Like quicksand, these self-defeating thoughts pull us even deeper into despair and we may become seduced by seclusion. Instead, I believe we should strive to accept our struggles as the catalysts that can bring us into closer connection with others and thus be more empowered to overcome. My practice of therapy involves helping people realize that to struggle is not unique and that connections with others during those times can be the difference between surrendering to weakness and reclaiming your strength.

“It’s very important to realize that the inner child is still there, caught in the past. We have to rescue him," quote by Thich Nhat Nanh. The inner child lives within all of us. It is the part of us that feels emotions, is lively, curious, and creative. Hidden under our adult personas, the inner child holds the key to intimacy, recovery from addiction, physical and emotional well-being, and the creativity and wisdom of our inner selves; our true selves.

Are you struggling with growing into the next chapter of your life? Maybe your family's expectations don’t fully match your experience, or you’re having trouble finding ways to express your own pain and disappointment. It's common to try to just avoid thinking about it. We hide it from others, and in turn we are alone in all the mess and chaos and don’t know the way out. I specialize in creating a non-judgmental, comforting space for you to understand yourself compassionately and heal some that pain.

How can I find a therapist in Long Beach?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
