Family Systems Therapists in Pacoima, CA

Hi there! My name is Damien Beauchemin, I am an LMFT that lives in Humboldt County California. I work with various clients, but I've done my best work with those who are nerdy, quirky, and fringe. I like to use solution-focused, cognitive, and forward-focused methods for therapy. I like to think that people can best work on moving beyond their issues and focus on making the best tomorrow they can. There are a fair amount of questions on a person's background, what we can work on together, goals to be addressed, and likely a few bad jokes.

Hi, I'm Peter Bippus, LMFT, LPCC, and I am an unconventional therapist whose approach is refreshingly modern, practical and skills-based. I focus on difficult-to-reach populations and work closely with male survivors of abuse. By now, you are well educated in mental health, and may have been in therapy before. You are familiar with breathing exercises, mindfulness, meditation, and so on...while these approaches do work well, you know that there must be other skills and tools out there but have yet to come across anything new.
