Online Psychotherapy
Our clinicians currently provide secure, confidential psychotherapy via Telehealth to individual adult clients located in some or all of the following states: CA, FL, PA, & NM. Some in person appointments available in Los Angeles once patient is well established in Virtual care.
Ours is a holistic practice designed to assist you to cope, grow, and heal. Holistic mental and behavioral health treatment means addressing the whole person; taking into account not just symptoms or behaviors, but correlating physical, nutritional, social, cultural, generational, and situational factors involved. Rather than applying techniques to treat symptoms, we are together investigating and resolving complex causes and origins of psychiatric, psychosocial, behavioral, and trauma-related problems.

Self pay rates are $225 for assessment and treatment plan, and $175 for subsequent 60 minute sessions.
Clinicians are in-network providers with:

We serve adult clients for individual psychotherapy for mood issues (depression, bipolar disorder), anxiety (generalized, panic, etc), adjustment to illness/injury, life stressors/trauma, and addictive disorders such as substance use disorders, disordered eating, and behavioral/impulse control issues. Our clinicians have an eclectic approach, utilizing a range of modalities dependent upon the client’s needs, and are trained and experienced in working with members of the LGBTQ+ community and as well as culturally competent for treating issues unique to people of color.
