Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

Hi, my name is Jamie Morales. I am a licensed clinical social worker and feel strongly about mental health and well-being. I use a client-centered approach, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based therapy, among other modalities and interventions. My focus areas of practice are anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as grief counseling and stress management. The most common therapeutic approaches I use in my practice are cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, compassion-based therapy, and trauma-informed care.

Are relationships supposed to be this hard? When sexual issues keep you from maintaining or obtaining a happy relationship it's time to see a sex therapist. As a sex & relationship specialist, I successfully treat people with issues surrounding sexual desire & performance, sexual trauma, problems with arousal or orgasm, differences in the amount of sex they'd like to have, & sexual pain disorders such as vaginismus. I assist clients in building intimacy by deepening their mutual understanding & compassion (for their often very opposite mate!) and help them stay accountable for taking positive action to improve relationships.

Feeling stuck? Whether you’ve worked with a therapist or two, or have never been to therapy before, if things don’t seem to be working well, it may be time to do something different. Have you felt discouraged, lost or further isolated by disconnected, generic or rushed sessions? Are you looking to gain practical, actionable insight to become more self-aligned, empowered, and more consistently supported. Are you interested in sessions truly customized to you and your unique journey? Then take THIS opportunity toward positive change! Let this be your time, your season of new beginnings. Give me a call to begin...

My clients usually express experiencing conflicts, inside themselves or with others, and are looking for empathic, flexible, culturally competent, and dynamic clinician to provide support and guidance. My clients have challenges with anxiety, stress, trauma, depression, grief, self-esteem, self/body image, interpersonal relationships (family, platonic, romantic), work-life balance, life transitions, racial trauma, racial identity, challenges with boundary setting, and assertive communication. I provide them an empathetic and supportive environment to explore these challenges, and develop goals and interventions to grow and heal.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist (Lic. 123395) it is my job to be a collaborative partner in exploring your past while inviting you to step into your future with a new set of eyes. Depending on what you are looking for we will explore the footsteps that were laid before you in order to set the foundation for what is next. I predominately work with couples and individuals. I am a tele-health provider and have worked at various therapy groups, practices, hospitals and treatment centers. I am also an Adjunct Professor at Antioch University Masters Clinical Psychology Program.

Have you found yourself emotionally, mentally, or physically dysregulated after a crisis, trauma, or change? If you have found difficulty managing OCD, anxiety, depression, grief, BPD, or chronic illness, I can help using therapeutic tools customized to your recovery. Whether you are looking for short-term or long-term therapy to transform your narrative from helplessness to self-efficacy, I offer treatment plans utilizing culturally aware care, as well as evidence-based practices such as Exposure Response Prevention, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and EMDR.

My ideal client has nuerotic tendencies and is intelligent enough to develop insight, is motivated to get better and become more actualized. I do well with clients who are suffering from depression, anxiety, panic disorder and addiction & meditation. Other issues I am experienced in are work related problems, mediation, writers block, performance issues and performance anxiety as well as phase of life issues and couples counseling. I also enjoy working with clients who come from alcoholic families or had a history of trauma. My training lends itself well to helping clients by using EMDR, CBT, ACT & Psychodynamic therapy.

Because I've been blessed with life-changing mentors in my life, I can pass the sum of their wisdom on to you, along with my own. Therapy is a healing process that happens through our shared connection and your expanding awareness. It requires a safe place, where truth is expressed and pain is transformed. Typically we meet suffering with distractions, intoxication or denial. When we find a way to experience emotional sobriety, our relationships with ourselves and others can heal. Loss, trauma, emotional intoxication and shame are common issues that breed secondary problems. We’ll approach them with skill, compassion and courage.

My experience includes couples therapy and treating individuals with anxiety, depression, obsession-compulsion, phobias, post-traumatic stress, eating disorders, and addictions, such as gambling and sex. Furthermore, because of my experience in the ministry field, I also do well in counseling on religious issues, grievances, loss crises, and other unresolved issues.

Hi! My name is Dr. Tristin Engels (PSY29403), and I am a licensed Clinical and Forensic Psychologist. My experience has taught me that the most important aspect of effective therapy is building and maintaining a therapeutic rapport. Without that, treatment success will be negatively impacted. As a clinical forensic psychologist, I have worked with extremely diverse and underserved populations for the majority of my career. This has been invaluable in allowing me exposure and experience working with nearly all mental health conditions, understanding cultural sensitivity and building rapport with the most resistant of clients.

In life, pain and suffering are inevitable. We have all been wounded in one way or another. As your Psychotherapist and Integrative Trauma Recovery Trained Specialist, I treat the whole person—body, mind, and soul. Life ebbs and flows, and at times, we can find ourselves in the rapids of despair and confusion. It’s easy to fall into the trap of defining ourselves by our struggles, which only leads us to forget our true story and diminish who we really are. I will help you clear the fog of dysfunction and illuminate your path to develop and reveal the person you truly are and were meant to be.

I am here to help. It is my role and honor to provide a safe therapeutic environment that is comfortable. It can be hard to address personal issues, mental health complications, phase of life problems, identity troubles, and relationship issues. Just remember, you are not alone, almost everyone has gone through difficult times in their lives. It's how they're handled that makes the difference. My approach is client centered. Each person is different. It requires their unique experience to guide the therapeutic process. It is within your potential to have a more rewarding and fulfilling quality of life.

My name is Pamela Coleman, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 24 years of experience in the mental health field. My approach to therapy is client-entered, and my focus areas are adults of all ages, adolescents, couples, and families. My overall approach is eclectic, but I hold an attachment theory-based perspective. I am trauma-informed and trauma-responsive.

I treat several types of people: those with Depression (especially the treatment-resistant type); Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD); Substance Use Disorder (SUD); and those engaged with existential considerations (meaning, purpose, drive). In many cases - even including those with SUD - the addition of Ketamine can bring about successful changes many have found elusive.
