Are you looking to make a positive change in your life but not quite sure what or how? Are there transitions in your life and you are unsure of how to cope with them? Do you have children and adolescents that you are finding hard to relate to? Do you feel stressed because of everything life throws at you? As your clinician, I want to work together to find a solution to these challenges. As humans, we should not have to deal with daily stress as a part of our lives and we shouldn’t have to figure it out all on our own. I specialize in working with children and adolescents. These two age populations are crucial in human development. During these stages of life, children experience many confusing emotions that relate to self identity, peer relationships, family relationships, life transitions and school. Working with children that range from 2-18 years old has allowed me to develop my knowledge with this delicate population. Working with children and adolescents, I have been trained to use different theoretical approaches, that which includes systemic, cognitive behavioral, postmodern, and humanistic. I also have experience working in the school setting providing counseling support and working within special education. My role is to provide support not only to the child, but also to the parents and family.

As a psychotherapist serving Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, Laguna Beach and Newport Coast I work with couples and individuals who are experiencing relationship problems, depression, anxiety, grief, effects of trauma, and marital issues. Change does not occur easily and yet I continue to be inspired each day by the courage and motivation of the people I work with to challenge patterns that repeatedly cause heartache and turmoil, the effects of trauma from the past, and the problematic issues of daily living. No matter what the issue is, the most important aspect of therapy is developing a comfortable and trusting relationship with your therapist. I work in a way that provides that for each of my patients. So, If you're tired of the way your life is going, or if there are certain aspects that you know need some attention, I'd like to talk with you to see how I may be able to support you through your therapeutic process. I am caring, understanding and easy to talk to, and I provide a safe, comfortable place for you. I specialize in helping people live more fulfilling lives in their family, relationships and worklife. I also help people with increasing their confidence, as well as working through the effects of trauma, and issues from the past.

We are all human, and at one point or another, yearn to feel heard and understood. Our circumstances can be an amalgamation of multiple factors, external as well as internal. Carmit is interested in getting to know and hear your experiences and help make sense of the circumstances, feelings and challenges you are going through. Having a multicultural background and being multilingual, Carmit is interested about the balance between the universality of human experience and a person's individual circumstances.

I have been in practice for over 15 years, and have found that rather than waking up each day and approaching the day as the one we believe we are supposed to have, I help clients reach for the kind of day they want to have. I work with individuals, couples, children and families, and engage with them in the dynamic that they bring in. Once we define the parts of that dynamic that is not functioning at an optimal level for them, we acknowledge it, address it, process why it exists and then attempt to reconfigure it so that all parties are closer to their desired experience. Rather than approach a therapeutic situation from one particular perspective, I use an ecclectic array of modalities so that I may reach each client in a way that meets their needs. I work Mondays through Fridays, from 8 am til 7 pm. My office is conveniently located in Beverly Hills, with easy parking.

Seeking help is half the battle and I can guide you through the rest of the journey. I work with clients to provide a safe space to address a variety of issues ranging from trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, shame, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Together we can develop a new narrative about yourself and your potential while addressing past traumas and developing coping strategies to manage current and future challenges.

Dr. Romeyn is committed to helping families locate the most appropriate educational and therapeutic options for their children and young adults. Dr. Romeyn takes a holistic approach by obtaining a thorough picture of an adolescent, young adult, and family in order to match the individual’s needs and challenges as well as strengths and capacities to the most appropriate school or program. This approach starts with an in depth analysis of existing reports, in person interviews, and interviews with other professionals that have worked with the family. Once a thorough picture has been painted, Dr. Romeyn will work with the family to locate the most appropriate setting. Once the setting has been decided, Dr. Romeyn will assist with admissions and help to ensure a smooth transition. Dr. Romeyn is committed to a long-term partnership with her clients and families. When working with a family on residential planning and placement, Dr. Romeyn will stay involved for a period of one year. This involves assistance with transitional planning, regular contact with a school or program to keep current on her clients’ therapeutic and academic progress, and generally serving as a liaison between parents and program personnel when needed. If additional placements are suggested, Dr. Romeyn will assist with locating and the process of transitioning. In addition, Dr. Romeyn will frequently visit her clients as she travels throughout the year. Over the past year Dr. Romeyn has visited over 250 residential schools and programs including therapeutic and emotional growth schools, therapeutic wilderness programs, therapeutic group homes, drug and alcohol treatment programs, residential treatment centers, psychiatric facilities and therapeutic boarding schools. Dr. Romeyn has a thorough understanding of all aspects of the schools and programs to which she refers families. Aspects of programs include: training of therapists, theoretical framework, qualifications of program personnel, the quality of residential living, recreational and learning opportunities.

I love my work and am so rewarded by your strength and ability to experience happiness and wholeness.

"HEALTH AND HAPPINESS is my dedication to CHILDREN and their FAMILIES!" This is this very belief that reflects my life calling. The understanding that the proper nurturing of our minds and hearts will inevitably create a future that is balanced in justice and compassion. My mission is to translate this truth from an abstract macro cosmic concept into a practical microcosm.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Los Angeles is a psychotherapy practice that specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety, depression, and a whole multitude of other disorders and psychological problems. We are one of the few CBT centers in the country to use only licensed doctoral-level therapists, ensuring the highest quality of care for our clients. All of our therapists are expert in CBT, many of whom teach CBT at the graduate and post-graduate levels. At Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Los Angeles, we are proud to serve West Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a short-term, highly focused therapy that has been shown to be the best treatment for numerous anxiety and depression, as well as a host of other problems. Unlike traditional talk-therapy, which often focuses on early childhood, cognitive behavioral therapy is present-focused, highly goal-oriented, and active. The CBT treatment approach allows significant improvement to occur much earlier than in traditional talk therapy. As a result, cognitive behavioral therapy can help you to end treatment sooner, teaching you to become your own best resource to solve problems. Overwhelming research suggests cognitive behavioral therapy is the most effective treatment for most disorders, with numerous studies supporting CBT treatment for depression and anxiety.

I am a Humanistic therapist who leads with empathy and specializes in LGBTQIA+ affirmative care, co-transition support, non-monogamy, GSRD (gender, sex, relationships, diversity), parasociality, and the unique mental health needs of celebrities or other entertainment industry professionals. My clinical approach integrates narrative therapy, attachment work, nonviolent communication, and psychoeducation to help clients reclaim their voice, autonomy, and capacity for joy. I focus on dissolving power dynamics in the therapy room while centering intersectionality, antiracism, and body neutrality/positivity.

Do you want to start experiencing the success you desire in your most meaningful relationships, in your career or in your academic pursuits? I having been helping individuals like you, for over eighteen years, do just that, using such modalities as individual psychotherapy, counseling for couples and families, and neurofeedback and biofeedback training. All sessions are with me personally, and in a quite private practice setting.

I’m a trained psychotherapist with 15+ years experience working with adults and adolescents. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, self-sabotaging behaviors, and relationship problems. I integrate various treatment approaches and theories in my work with clients, including somatic experiencing, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, attachment theory, spirituality, and buddhist meditation. I work in an empathic and supportive environment, helping clients to rapidly get to the core issues which keep them stuck in their lives, unhappy in relationships, or chronically depressed, angry, or anxious. Almost always, what creates suffering is the avoidance of painful feelings and/or experiences. When we avoid these painful feelings, we become more anxious, more depressed, or more angry. This leads to a vicious cycle of problems within ourselves (i.e, depression) or in relationships, which cause us even more suffering. By bringing to the surface the deep and buried, often complex, underlying thoughts, emotions, and experiences and working them through (feeling them in the body, understanding their source), this frees them up. And the unwanted feelings (anxiety, depression) or behavior melt away on their own. This then allows us to be more connected to both ourselves and others, to have more intimacy in our relationships and to feel more fulfilled in general. Using this approach, significant and lasting change can happen rather quickly, much quicker than most other therapies out there. And because these changes occur at a deep level, they tend to be lasting.

I work mostly with men who are feeling alone, angry, and ashamed. Most men in our society experience profound isolation and dissatisfaction with their lives, which they think is the way it's "supposed" to be. This couldn't be further from the truth. Our work together addresses these issues so that you can be alive and free. I believe that humans heal through connecting with others and I hope to make that connection with you. My approach also takes into account the larger forces that we have to deal with on a day to day basis in order to help therapy be more effective and lasting. I work from a Psychodynamic and Systemic framework but my honestly and authenticity is offered above all else.

We all deserve to feel seen, included, and understood, no matter who we are. As a LGBTQ+ affirmative therapist, my aim is to help you better see yourself in all aspects of who you are, feel more included in relation to those around you, and experience a greater understanding of how you fit into a wider world. Maybe you’re exploring your non-binary gender for the first time. Maybe you’re supporting a transgender family member or partner. Maybe you’re working through relationship challenges as an LGBTQ+ person. Together, we can explore what “seen,” “included,” and “understood” mean for you and how you can achieve them. As a queer and transgender person myself, supporting other LGBTQ+ folks is my personal and professional passion. I strive to create safe, inclusive, judgement-free spaces for clients to explore, heal, and grow. While therapy can be hard work, I'm prepared to work as hard as you are and I'll be there to affirm and support you through the whole process. Reaching out for help can be scary. You're more than valid to feel this way and you’ve been through so much to get this far! I believe you have amazing strengths and vast resources within you and that our work together can help you unearth them. I’m trained in the therapy process, but you’re the expert of your own life. I look forward to learning from you.

It is essential for each of us to discover our own way of being. Frequently, in therapy, people often feel frustrated because they don't feel they have the ability to change their situation. It is not always easy to face our problems or seek another's help. The daily stresses of life can build until we feel completely overwhelmed with life. Many who first come to therapy report feeling lost, alone, or depressed and many feel confusion and hopelessness about the future. These feelings are very normal yet most people feel as if they are falling apart. It is important for each of us to allow ourselves the space to reflect upon our day to day life and our future. Therapy is just that opportunity. It allows us to work through some of the most difficult struggles life can impose on us in an atmosphere of acceptance and unconditional support. Competent therapists do not offer solutions or take sides. They help clients work out solutions according to individual values and lifestyles. Seeking professional assistance is a sign of courage and a willingness to deal with life's many changes

I work with a broad variety of people who are trying to get un-stuck from areas in their lives that have become counterproductive ways of coping. People frequently arrive at my office after reading self-help books, working hard to develop successful and healthy habits, exercising, changing their appetite and/or diet, taking medication (or refusing to), but find that these changes did not reach something deeper inside that seems to get in the way. They are usually smart people who know what to do, but in the “heat of the moment” all of the seemingly good tools, learning, and insights “go out the window” and an emotional reaction that sabotages the potential for success often intervenes. Whether it is to be able to have a satisfying relationship, overcome intense anxiety, break out of a deep depression, recover from a traumatic experience, overcome an addiction, or other life problem, numerous people come to me to remove the barriers in their lives so they can live more freely and get back on track of healthy living. It is important for me to help people uncover what is right with them, not just focus exclusively on their problems. I am a clinical psychologist in private practice in Orange County for over 20 years. I would like to have the opportunity to explore further what might be done to help.

Life is very different without an Instagram filter. We live in a fast-paced world. The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, amazing friends, great body, high self-esteem, and 100+ likes on every single social media post. The reality is, we are all humans with real emotions, feelings, ups, and downs. What is your life really like? Are you happy with the job you have? The friends you have? The relationships you are in? More importantly, Are you happy with WHO YOU ARE TODAY, HOW YOU ARE LIVING YOUR LIFE? I firmly believe it is possible to be happy with the life you’re living. It is crucial to take a moment to embrace your struggles, challenge yourself, work through difficult situations and find true happiness through addressing the challenges in your life.

Are you struggling to connect with your child? Do you have difficulty setting boundaries and getting results? PARENTING IS HARD. There are no books or guidelines to follow. Sometimes you just sit there and think, “Where did I go wrong?” or “How did we end up like this?” You want to be a support and help your child while also setting appropriate boundaries and providing a good example. I help parents connect with their children and bridge the gap in communication. Children and adolescents tend to feel misunderstood by adults, especially their parents. My specialty is assisting in creating that understanding relationship, while also allowing parents to maintain the appropriate boundaries necessary to allow their children to thrive.

Your child is faced with many stressors in his/her life which can lead to various issues such as anxiety, depression, substance use, academic problems and more. Children and adolescents need someone who will provide a place space to express themselves, empathize, and teach them healthier ways to cope with their struggles that will help them go on to lead healthy lives. As a parent you need someone who will support you through this difficult time and give your family the skills to grow.

My practice focuses on children, adolescents and their parents with an emphasis on wellness and cultural sensitivity. I am a licensed psychologist and also licensed as a school counselor with many years of experience working in the schools.

Areas of specialization include children with disabilities, Autism, ADHD, parental support, marital issues, anxiety, depression and marital or family issues.

We all go through tough times in life and sometimes need a guiding hand to get through it. Finding the right therapist can be a difficult task but one that can be extremely rewarding if you find the right match. I offer my clients a nurturing, empathetic and non-judgmental environment to explore and work through their trauma, pain, struggles and stress. I strive to help my clients create balance and develop healthy boundaries in their life so that they may find the peace and happiness they are striving for. I use an eclectic array of modalities to help my clients towards their goals. A few of the methods that I use are meditation and mindfulness, art therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, Hypnotherapy, narrative therapy and pet therapy (through the company of my trusty partner and certified therapy dog Rama). I offer my clients a holistic approach to therapy- taking a look at all of the factors in their life that may be contributing to their pain or struggles. One step at a time we can overcome these hurdles together. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

I believe therapy should be accessible. I love to work with the LGBTQI community and with the wide array of issues unique to them. I also try to help people find a way out of religious scrupulosity and the depression and anxiety it brings.

I work with a wide variety of emotional and behavioral issues and seek to provide a space for growth and insight. It is essential that you have a good fit with a therapist. If you think I might be right for you I will offer you a free face-to-face consultation for you to get a feel for how we might work together.
