Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Los Angeles, CA 90025
I am in-network with LACare Medi-Cal, Carelon Behavioral Health, Optum, Aetna and others.
I welcome you in the journey of healing and personal transformation from a wholistic approach of mind, body, & emotions. This may allow you to free yourself from belief systems, thought patterns and habits that seem to be not working anymore and adversely influencing health, relationships, personal growth and inner peace. Stuck or repressed emotions feed into anxiety, depression, or anger disrupting one’s mental, physical and social well-being.

I accept Medi-Cal through OC's CalOptima.
When you’re struggling with change, curiosity, not judgment, is a great place to start. It’s important to have an affirming space to talk about what’s on your mind. If you have feelings of shame, insecurity, or self-doubt, therapy can be a source of support and discovery. What’s it like to work with me? I am a warm and compassionate therapist who speaks from the heart. I work collaboratively and customize therapy to meet each client's needs. I focus on a client’s strengths to work through issues. ​

Having both degrees in medicine and psychology helped me to create a holistic approach which incorporates science, soul, and body. During our work together I will gently guide you towards the goals you want to achieve as well as explore and release all the difficulties you have on the way. My mission is to show my clients that everything they want is possible and there is always a way to feel happy and satisfied with your life. It is true that sometimes we go through a lot of challenges that can make us feel hopeless or desperate, and we think it is impossible to get better.

Ira Nathanson
Psychologist, PhD
Los Angeles, CA 90049
I've been a clinical psychologist for over 40 years. I have treated a broad range of clients during this time utilizing humanistic and psychodynamic approaches. My focus in therapy is with adults who struggle with a variety of personal issues including depression, anxiety, self-esteem and relationships. I am quite interested in the concerns that younger adults confront as well as those that individuals face as they transition into their mid-life years including aging, retirement, sexuality, illness, and loss. I believe that I can help clients gain greater clarity as they work to resolve these issues in an atmosphere of support and warmth.

Perhaps you long for deeper connection but find yourself struggling with trust, intimacy, communication, self-doubt, or fear of being hurt or rejected. Maybe you understand intellectually what is happening, but still find it difficult to change the emotional patterns in your relationships. I also recognize that relationships and emotional experiences don't exist in isolation. Your identity, culture, background, and life experiences all influence how you see yourself and connect with others. If you're ready to better understand yourself and build more meaningful connections, therapy can be a place to begin.

My ideal client is someone with a desire to be courageous enough to consider what change might look like in their life. While change can be both terrifying and daunting, it is also exhilarating and necessary to help in our journey of authenticity and self-empowerment.

Life can feel overwhelming at times—especially when you’re navigating anxiety, major life transitions, relationship/marriage issues, questions about identity, LGBTQ+ experiences, or the unique challenges of being neurodivergent. You might feel stuck in patterns that aren’t working anymore, unsure of your next step, or simply looking for a space where you can be fully understood. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

I accept Anthem Blue Cross through Medi-Cal and Aetna insurance.
You’ve spent years trying to outrun anxiety, overthinking, or that lingering fear of not being “good enough.” You function, you show up, you keep going – but deep down you feel tense, on edge, or stuck in patterns you can’t shake. Maybe old memories still live in your body, or certain triggers send you spiraling fast. You want real change, not another bandaid. You want to feel calm, clear, and finally free from the past so you can move forward feeling grounded, secure, and connected to yourself.
