Therapists for college students near Los Angeles, CA

Helping make a difference in client’s lives is what inspires me to do the work that I do everyday in the field of mental healthcare. During sessions, I provide a safe space for clients to open up about what is on their mind and how to work through those feelings in a positive manner, while also listening to what clients are say and how it is impacting them currently. Building trust and a strong therapeutic alliance begins in the very first session, and continues to strengthen throughout the cour...

Many of my clients identify as overachievers, people pleasers and perfectionists. Are you tired of trying to please others and just want to find a way to hear y...

I am a member of Growth and Change Counseling.

We have to get down to the roots of the problems in order to ...

College can be exciting, overwhelming, and everything in between. It’s a time of big changes, big questions, and a lot of pressure—about who you are, where you belong, and whether you’re doing “enough.” I work with college students who are navigating anxiety, body image struggles, perfectionism, and that nagging feeling of not measuring up, even when everything seems fine on the outside. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or just off, therapy can be a space to slow down and figure out what’s r...

For me, becoming a therapist was really about wanting to support people through difficult and sometimes lonely parts of their lives. I’ve always been drawn to deep conversations and understanding what makes people feel seen, heard, and safe. Over time, I realized that being present for someone-without judgement-can be incredibly powerful. I wanted to offer that space where people can explore their story, grow, and feel more connected to themselves. It’s a privilege to be part of that process. ...
