THERAPY IN LOS ANGELES
Couples therapy, trauma therapy, and holistic therapy online, for Los Angeles adults and teens.
Life in Los Angeles isn’t easy on your mental health.
Los Angeles is a city that asks a lot of you. The image, the hustle, the sense that everyone around you is a little further along and making it look easy. The traffic alone could break a person… but it's rarely just the traffic.
Most of the clients who find us are already doing fine by most measures. Good job, good apartment, people who love them. They're not in crisis. They're just tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix, and they've started to notice that the coping strategies that got them this far have a ceiling.
That's usually the moment something shifts. Not a breakdown; just a quiet recognition that this isn't quite working anymore, and that maybe it doesn't have to be this hard.
If that's where you are, you're in the right place.
Good Therapy Is All About Great Therapist Match
Studies have shown that feeling a strong connection to your therapist is critical for successful therapy.
That’s why we’re so committed to finding a good therapist fit.
No algorithms. No automation. Just real, human-centered connection.
We’ve refined a matching process that considers your personality, your preferences, our areas of expertise, and your goals for therapy
It starts with a free 20-minute conversation directly with one of our therapists. No time wasted with a call center or admin.
Services We Offer in Los Angeles
-
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy in Los Angeles for the relationship you want to protect before the distance becomes the default. LA life puts pressure on relationships in ways that are easy to dismiss and hard to undo. Gottman Method therapy gives you real tools before you need a Hail Mary.
-
Burnout Recovery
Burnout therapy for LA professionals who have optimized everything except how they actually feel. The hustle is real. So is the crash that follows. If you've been running on cortisol and caffeine and wondering why the weekends don't help anymore, this is the work.
-
Therapy for Lawyers
Therapy for lawyers and legal professionals in Los Angeles who perform well under pressure and pay for it quietly. The billing targets, the client demands, the Sunday dread that arrives by Saturday afternoon. We know this world from the inside.
-
EMDR Therapy
Los Angeles EMDR therapy for trauma that talk therapy hasn't touched. Whether it's the weight of a high-pressure career, a car accident on the 405, or something that happened long before you moved here, EMDR works at the level of the nervous system, where the trauma actually lives. Car accident trauma is more common than people realize, and more treatable; here's how EMDR addresses it specifically.
-
LGBTQ+ Therapy
LGBTQ affirming therapy in Los Angeles from clinicians who understand queer experience as more than a checkbox. Minority stress accumulates. Identity work is real work. Our therapists bring lived experience and clinical training to sessions that require both.
-
EMDR Intensives
EMDR Intensives for Los Angeles professionals who can't afford to spend a year getting to the work. Extended multi-hour sessions designed to go deeper, faster — without the stop-and-start of weekly therapy. Ideal for busy creatives, executives, and anyone who's done enough talking and is ready to move.
-
Holistic Therapy
Holistic therapy in Los Angeles for people who've tried fixing it from the neck up and keep hitting the same wall. The body keeps score. Our holistic therapists integrate somatic awareness, mindfulness, and evidence-based approaches for clients who know something deeper is going on.
-
Teen Therapy
Therapy for teenagers in Los Angeles navigating social pressure, identity, and a city that glamorizes everything they're still figuring out. Our teen therapists use EMDR and evidence-based approaches to build real skills, not just symptom management.

Reasons To Start Therapy
Improve Your Communication
Are you struggling to find words feelings, manage workplace politics, or connect? Let's revitalize your communication toolkit, ensuring you're heard, understood, and more connected in every conversation you have.
Decrease Your Anxiety
It makes sense to be anxious in Los Angeles. The traffic, the unpredictability of our industries, and the hustle to stay ahead don’t stop. If you've tried the usual fixes and anxiety keeps coming back, here are nine less obvious reasons why. Chronic stress and high levels of cortisol that in turn effect our relationships and work. Getting anxiety under control can be a game-changer. We love doing therapy for lawyers, tech workers, entertainers, and healthcare workers.
Improve Your Relationships
Work is work, but relationships are what give us meaning. When our relationships are good, we feel good. When they’re tense or uncertain, we feel anxious and depressed. Therapy can help improve relationships, decrease isolation, and help you feel deeper meaning in life.
Revitalize Your Relationship Through Couples Therapy In Los Angeles
Do you want less conflict, better communication, and more feelings of closeness with your partner? If you're wondering whether it's time to start couples therapy or whether things haven't gotten bad enough yet, here's our take on that question.
Our Los Angeles couples therapists can help you unlearn ingrained patterns and teach you new skills to handle disagreements and conflict. Reconnect, recommit, and rediscover the spark you felt when you met through couples therapy. We work with all couples, but have a special place in our hearts for LGBT couples.
Heal Your Trauma Through EMDR Therapy Los Angeles
Trauma can upend your life. It disrupts sleep, work, relationships, and your feelings of safety in the world. It can feel like you lost yourself and won’t ever get back to who you were.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Our skilled EMDR therapists can help cut the tie between the trauma and the physical discomfort it brings. We do this using a research-proven approach called EMDR. You can feel calm and safe again. The 8-phase approach emphasizes your safety and gives you strategies to handle triggers before processing any trauma begins.
You deserve to feel better. Schedule a consultation to work with one of our EMDR therapists today.
EMDR therapist Alexis Bibler explains what EMDR can do for people in Los Angeles who have experienced trauma.

FAQs: Therapy In Los Angeles
-
A few things. Our clinicians specialize rather than generalize — you're matched with someone who actually knows your world, whether that's entertainment, law, tech, or healthcare. Our matching process is handled by a real therapist, not an algorithm or an admin. And as a 100% therapist-owned practice, every decision we make is about whether it's good for clients — not investors.
-
All sessions are through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. No commute, no parking, no 405. You'll receive a link before each session — find a private space, click in, and we proceed exactly as we would in person. Most clients tell us they stop noticing it's virtual within the first few minutes. You just need a reliable internet connection and 50 uninterrupted minutes.
-
Yes. We offer Gottman Method couples therapy online for LA couples. Most couples who reach out have been thinking about it longer than they'd like to admit. You don't need to be in crisis to start — in fact, the earlier you come in, the more there is to work with. We also offer LGBT couples therapy for queer couples looking for an affirming space.
-
It starts with a free 20-minute consultation with one of our therapists — not a call center, not an intake form. We'll ask about your goals, your history, and your preferences. From there we make a recommendation based on fit, specialty, and what the research says will be most effective for your situation. If the match doesn't feel right after a few sessions, we'll help you find someone who does. Meet our team →
-
Yes! EMDR therapy is one of our core specialties and all of our therapists are EMDR-trained. If you've spent time in talk therapy understanding your patterns without being able to change how you feel, EMDR works at a different level. We also offer EMDR Intensives for LA clients who want to move faster than weekly sessions allow.
-
Our rates range from $165 to $250 per session depending on the clinician. We are an out-of-network practice. If cost is a concern, bring it up in your free consultation; we'll be straightforward with you about what makes sense.
You can also use our complimentary benefits checker here.
Clients with PPO plans can often get partial reimbursement by submitting a superbill, which we provide on request. Book a free consultation →
-
It depends on what you're working through. Most clients work with us for 6 to 18 months. If you're dealing with something specific and contained, you may move faster. If you're working through something more layered, it takes longer. Your therapist will give you a realistic timeline after your first session. If you want to accelerate the process, ask us about EMDR Intensives.
-
A real conversation. Your therapist will ask what's bringing you in, what you've tried before, and what you're hoping for. We won't push you into anything heavy in the first session — the goal is to get an honest sense of each other and start building the foundation. Most people leave feeling clearer than they expected.
