Therapists in Brentwood, CA

Hi! I'm Alexandria Steely, LCSW and I specialize in helping children, teens, and young adults find themselves, grow, and be the most confident version they can be. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions. I work alongside my clients, co-piloting as we look to understand and break down emotions and feelings. Over the past couple of years, I have typically been working with children, teens, and young adults with low self-confidence, negative self-image, anxiety, and overall general mental health concerns.

My name is Steven East. I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor and a Certified Eye Movement Reprocessing Desensitization (EMDR) Therapist. I help clients struggling with Bi-Polar Disorder, Depression, Trauma, Anxiety, Addiction, Thought Disorders, Anger, Grief, Co-dependency, Family and Marital Discord, My approach is based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

Are you feeling stuck? Or worried about your child, family or self? Perhaps you're feeling unhappy or self-critical and struggling to identify what is happening in your life. Is anxiety causing difficulty in functioning at home, school/work, and relationships? Seeking professional help can reduce these symptoms. I provide therapy services that are person-centered meaning I meet clients where they are and empower them to change or improve behavior. Through my authentic, positive energy and interactive approach to therapy, I provide clients the tools to help them live their best lives and build overall self-esteem and confidence.

Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed and struggling to manage emotions? Have you or your family members experienced a traumatic event or stressful transition? Is your child experiencing difficulties at school; challenging behaviors? If you've answered yes to any of these questions, I may be able to help. I provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults. My clinical orientation includes client centered, strength-based and integrative modalities.

My name is Luisa Amighetti, and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at LMFT. I work in Los Angeles, California, providing services via telehealth with individuals and couples who struggle with anxiety, depression, perinatal/maternal mental health or who are facing tough life decisions/role transitions. My approach to therapy is to build trust with my clients to foster openness to change and healing.

I’m genuinely glad you are here, as you embark on your healing journey. My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration and empowerment, to foster a safe space for exploration and personal growth, as we work together to create realistic strategies to help you live your best life. My therapeutic approach tends to resonate well with individuals that are experiencing struggles with unhealthy habits, facing relationship concerns or difficulty navigating life transitions.

Often, we are weighed down by feelings of fear, distress, sadness, pain, worry, and even guilt. These feelings can intrude on our everyday lives, affect us, and affect those around us. Those closest to us often see our suffering more than we can. Our culture has made it so that we bury these feelings and emotions and throw up a façade of strength so as not to be a burden or worse, be judged. Meanwhile, on the inside, we struggle and often seek out destructive coping mechanisms, often towards a path of addiction. This can lead to a vicious cycle of behavior, suffering, and regret that we feel helpless to get out of.

I have been providing professional therapeutic services to a wide range of individuals, couples, and families for over 20 years. My current specialized areas of interest are life transitions, mindfulness with teens, trauma healing using EMDR, and recovery from sexual abuse and addiction.

You'll find that I'm not your typical patches-on-the-sleeves, "tell me about your mother" style therapist. After a career as a first responder, I have come in contact with a great many mental health challenges. My clients will find I am very empathetic while at the same time no-nonsense and to the point. Together, we'll explore what your challenges have been historically and find new ways to approach the life (and ultimately, happiness) for which you're looking.

Experienced Marriage and Family Therapist skilled in working with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings.

I believe therapy works best when it is a partnership between the therapist and client. I would love to partner with you to support the change or increased happiness you might be seeking. You do not have to struggle alone, I am happy to work with individuals, including adults and teens. During our work together, I hope to provide you with a safe, comfortable space to work towards your goals. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and warm.

I specialize in working with adults who have experienced trauma, abuse, have ADHD, or are navigating life transitions and intense personal relationships. The majority of my clients have experienced a recent traumatic event, childhood trauma or abuse, sexual trauma, intense or abusive relationships, substance use, medical trauma, combat trauma, and life impacted by the military. I utilize EMDR among other evidence based and trauma informed therapy modalities. I prioritize a very client centered, and individualized approach to therapy. I love working with clients who want to go deep or dig into solution focused work.

Welcome to 2024. If you're struggling with adjusting to life currently, experiencing anxiety, depression or other things that are impairing your happy, healthy, prosperous life, please reach out. I'd love to help!

Currently accepting new clients! I use an integrative approach of CBT, DBT, Life Skills and reality testing. Each patient is very individualistic in the approach. Customizing a treatment plan that is inclusive of the patient's goals and needs help to make the patient feel they are included in their process. I love to problem solve and help patient's create the awareness to build up to finding solutions from their problem saturated stories. I meet the patient where they are at and also implement challenges that will produce a level of accountability, free of judgement.

Current openings for new clients! Are you experiencing distressing thoughts that scare you? Do you feel compelled to complete certain tasks (even mentally) due to your thoughts? Do others often comment that you are anxious or always on edge? Or perhaps you're struggling with peer or family relationships, major life changes and use unhealthy means of coping with stress? If you or your teen have answered yes to any of these questions, I may be able to help. As a client-centered therapist, I believe that healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship; one that is genuine and compassionate.

Ever feel like you're alone and not sure if anyone else is going through what you're going through? Ever want to just feel heard, listened to, or understood without feeling judged or criticized? Want to have a better understanding as to why you feel what you're feeling or why you're feeling a certain way? If you're looking for a better understanding of what's going on in your mind and why look no further! Together, we'll break down your experiences and help you understand them! I've worked with a variety of people that come from even more diverse backgrounds.

Welcome, my name is Faradebah! I enjoy working with individuals of all backgrounds to help cope with difficult life experiences in a compassionate, safe, and holistic way through evidence-based techniques. Life can be especially difficult when facing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, women's issues, end-of-life, caregiver burden and chronic or serious illness.

Something’s changed. That change can be any number of things - recent baby, newly out of or into middle school/high school, change in family dynamics, or others. But something has changed and it doesn’t feel right. You used to feel like you had it together - like you were writing your own story and happy with where it was going. But lately, it doesn’t feel that way. Lately, it feels like there’s an editor changing things in your story and it’s not working out! You feel lost, maybe depressed, anxious or angry, or maybe you’re not sure what you feel, just that something’s not right.

I will help you learn to appreciate your emotional identity through managing moods, thoughts, impulsiveness, reactivity, and harmful behaviors. I will help you strengthen or repair your relationships and build new ones. I'll help you cultivate confidence to ask for what you want, set boundaries with others, and navigate family issues. I can also teach you social skills if you feel out of place at work or school.
