Personality Disorders Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

I am a clinical psychologist working in private practice for over two decades. My practice welcomes adolescents and adults seeking help for a variety of issues. While I work with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, relationship, and adjustment issues, I maintain a specialty in eating disorders and personality disorders.

My name is Shawn Redfield. I am an LMFT. I believe change happens in therapy through learning and experiencing new ways to respond to challenges in our lives such as emotions, thoughts, pain, family, or spouses. The majority of my training is in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is an evidenced-based approach that I've found aligns with my own life and has helped the majority of individuals I've worked with. I also am experienced in treatment using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

​I work towards supporting my clients in developing insights, overcome obstacles, and uncovering the version of themselves they seek to find. I understand that in the face of challenges, this becomes an incredibly daunting task. I offer a non-judgmental and compassionate space for clients to feel heard and understood. I work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with anxiety, OCD, personality disorders, relationship issues, and life transitions. I utilize DBT, CBT and ACT along with Narrative Therapy, and Family Systems approaches, incorporating behavioral techniques as needed.

I am a therapist specializing in cognitive-based therapies where we take an active stance at changing the way you talk to yourself and act in your life. While we cannot erase traumas from the past or inevitable pain we may encounter today or in the future, I can equip you with tools to face these obstacles and feel confident in your ability to tackle problems as they arise.

Are you experiencing challenges dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship/family issues, and trauma/PTSD? Due to these symptoms, we can be in too much emotional pain and feel too stuck to reframe our perceptions or to find solutions to our problems.

Therefore, you can feel empowered, rejuvenated, and enthusiastic about life again.

I strive to help people become their own authority, which may have been compromised by unhealthy relationships, substance abuse, depression, and anxiety.

I believe it is imperative to address underlying issues with out judgment or shame, so that we can heal parts of the self that are no longer serving us. My clinical training is in psychodynamic therapy, and I tend to gravitate towards an attachment based and humanistic approach.
