My practice is dedicated to supporting healthy relationships, wellness and overall life satisfaction. I work with individuals, families, couples, and children of all ages. If you are looking to improve communication within your interpersonal relationships, find coping strategies for existing life challenges, or want to find a place to come and engage in personal introspection, I strive to create a safe, open, and honest space for you to gain awareness, find connection, and explore new ways of being.

Are you struggling with relationships? Are your children driving you crazy? Does your day to day feel overwhelming? My approach to therapy is a holistic model where we explore mind, body, and spirit in the pursuit of achieving balance within your life.

I started my therapeutic journey as a client and appreciate the courage it takes to make the first step. There's nothing quite like entering the process of seeking help. Whether your goals be relational maintenance, building autonomy, or processing trauma, I make it my mission to create an environment where you can feel safe to explore your needs. It can be very difficult to feel heard due to current circumstances. My practice lays on the foundation of empathetic intuition, multicultural competency, and interactive listening. You are not alone. My name is Haley and I'm here to Help.

My approach to therapy focuses on healing, connection, and emotional insight to allow individuals, couples, and families to reach their goals and improve their lives. We will work together to tailor your treatment so that whatever may be affecting you can be worked through in a safe, comfortable space. We will explore any troubling thoughts, feelings, or patterns that you are experiencing and we will find ways for you to move forward through any transition in your life. I ground my work in attachment theory and use it as my orientation when working with adults, children, teenagers, couples, and families.

Choosing the right therapist can be a difficult, yet important decision. I believe in an atmosphere by which individuals, couples and/or families can feel free to openly express themselves in a safe, therapeutic environment. Whether it is extreme anxiety or depression, family and relationship issues, addictions, grief, and a plethora of other conflicts, my clients are able to work on and through the many bumps in their lives in a supportive and caring place.

I work with teens and adults who are interested in and motivated to create meaningful change in their lives. I am committed to providing a warm, collaborative, compassionate, judgment-free space where we will explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help improve understanding of self and overall quality of life. I treat each person as unique and tailor my approach and technique to meet each individual’s goals.

I believe therapy is about change. My mission as a therapist is to help my clients find their way to creating balance and joy in their daily life. I believe all people have the ability to build a strong, healthy, and peaceful self. I specialize in treating such issues, among others, as anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management, relationship issues, parenting, marriage counseling, pre-marriage counseling, and divorce. In addition, I have substantial experience in substance abuse treatment.

Couples therapy is the heart and soul of my practice. It has also become a gateway for specialized individual work with men, ages 30 to 60, particularly in life transitions and crises. Respecting the real differences between men and women, I provide men with effective and relevant tools for understanding themselves and solving their problems. It is a perspective that values their strength and integrity and focuses on using their best self to get the results they are seeking from therapy. I also continue to work with women, individually and in couples, showing them how to empower themselves, while relating more effectively to their partners.

Are you going through a difficult time in your life? Feeling overwhelmed or stuck in unhelpful patterns? Having difficulty expressing yourself in relationships or having difficulty with trust and intimacy? These challenges are common barriers for many of us and you are not alone. As a therapist with over 20 years of experience, I provide the support and guidance necessary to help you overcome these challenges. Whether you are an individual, a couple, a parent, a family, or a child, psychotherapy will provide you with the support and skills you need to manage and cope with difficult situations.

Are you pregnant or in the post-partum period and experiencing anxiety or feelings of depression? Are you a teen or college student and feeling immense pressure of keeping up with school, friends, and planning for your future? I've been in your shoes and I can help. I know what it's like to feel weighed down by worry, sadness, uncertainty, and the demands of life. I also know the healing powers of being heard, validated, and supported through difficult times. I believe that by sharing our painful thoughts and feelings in a caring environment, we begin to heal and can move forward.

I offer a soft place to land in what can be a confusing world. I'll invite you to slow down, tune in, and explore your quieter and wiser self. It is human to struggle because, let's face it--life is tough. Feeling overwhelmed, trapped, fearful, angry, and sad is par for the course and the result of living in a fast-paced, stressful environment. This reality coupled with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, loss, trauma, and/or addiction can sap our resources. We can end up loosing sight of what is important to us and feel a dampening of our spirit.

My name is Fay Alon and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist. I have been practicing for over 20 years. I'm able to connect, understand and empathize with mostly anyone. I'm caring, compassionate, direct and non-judgmental. I completed my pre-doctoral internship at the UCLA Student Psychological Services. My post-doctoral fellowship was at Harbor UCLA-Medical Center. I worked for eight years as a psychologist at UCLA. I have been in private practice in Santa Monica, Woodland Hills and now in Calabasas. Please call or email me for an individual, couples or family therapy consultation today.

Searching for a Mental Health Provider can be a challenge. Reach out and I can answer any questions on how to get started. I am currently offering therapy delivered via Telehealth or phone sessions. This can be a powerful tool especially during such an isolating and stressful time. While there are many ways to deal with issues, why not give therapy a try. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or have been in previous treatment call or email and together we can review a plan and treatment options.

The decision to seek therapy often happens because of a crisis or desire for change. My goal is to help you create and attain the life and relationships you want. Often times, we know what the problem is, but don’t have a clear picture of the solution. Together we will create that vision and develop strategies to attain your goals. We will work collaboratively to access strengths and create tools to overcome the obstacles in your way. I work from a solution focused perspective in an active and engaging manner.

Exhausted...You have been tossing and turning all night, trying to think of ways to make it all better. The more you think, the more drained you become. It is becoming increasingly difficult to hold it together through this pandemic. Relationships are suffering and things feel tense and out of control. Perhaps you are arguing with your partner or having conflict with your teenage kids. Perhaps you are feeling anxious and depressed, wondering if there is an end in sight to this new way of doing things. Perhaps it is all too much and you just need to talk. Whatever it is, I am here to listen and help you sort it all out.
