I specialize in anxiety, fear, chronic worry, and panic and enjoy helping people discover how to move forward towards their dreams and goals. I work collaboratively with my clients, from tweens and teens to adults, bringing forth their strengths, abilities, and inner resources. I also work with couples in stress and transition, helping them to get back to responding instead of reacting, listening instead of arguing, and re-discovering what they stand for and desire as a couple. My personal experience with an anxiety disorder and panic attacks led me on the search to get my life back. I went to many therapists over the years and felt like a failure because their traditional behavioral-based techniques just didn't work for me. Finally, I found my own path out through the combination of Mindfulness-Based therapies, Self-Relations Psychology and Mindbody Attunement. You do not have to live your life in service of fear and anxiety, and current scientific research proves that we can be free of what Dan Siegal calls, "the mental traps of the mind" in his groundbreaking book, Mindsight. My personal motto is: "Manage Your Life Not Your Anxiety.

I have been a licensed marriage and family therapist in Los Angeles, CA for 24 years. My office is located in West Los Angeles and my office is comfortable, animal friendly and located near the 405 and 10 Freeways. I received my license in 1991 and my background is working with foster children. I started up several programs and found the work rewarding and difficult. Being a foster parent is a hard job because it was always the goal to reunify the child with their parents if at all possible. I started working with transgender people almost 20 years ago and have helped so many people transition to become themselves. I was an active member of the Los Angeles Gender Center for many years before going out on my own with a psychiatrist to start my own company called, Gender Wellness of Los Angeles that has been in practice for over 13 years. I have loved my work in the transgender community and am an active member of World Professional Association of Transgender Health. As an organization we were instrumental in getting Gender Identity Disorder removed from the DSM-IV and replaced it with Gender Dysphoria. It is no longer a mental disorder and is now considered a medical condition. As a member of this organization, I am active in working with policy and procedures for the transgender community and helping them get access to the best doctors, mental health providers and all other resources necessary for a happy and successful transition. My company is called Gender Wellness of Los Angeles and we are able to provide the necessary letters needed for hormones and sex confirming surgeries to the female to male and male to female transgender person. We provide individual, family and couples counseling as well as referrals to a psychiatrist for psychotropic medications if needed. Additionally, I work with the gay/lesbian population as well as anyone seeking therapy who wants to change behaviors that are no longer working for them in their lives. I use a direct approach and believe that the client and myself are a team working together to improve relationships to friends, family, co-workers and loved ones.

Different people respond to different methods of healing. For that reason I am trained in a number of different healing modalities such as: Humanistic Psychology— This approach provides you with a safe, unconditionally accepting experience in the therapeutic relationship. In this way we work to remove any toxic shame you may be carrying from the past. This can be particularly helpful if you come from a difficult family upbringing. Many of our issues we carry are a result of negative relationship patterns from the past. Humanistic psychology does reparative work by making the therapeutic relationship as accepting, non-judgmental, and healing as possible. Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, and Inner Child Work— These tools teach you how to relate to yourself in a loving, present time, productive manner. Most of us suffer from a strong “inner critic.” With the skills of Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, and Inner Child work, you will learn to alleviate suffering generated by the self-critic and move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Work— The most commonly used type of therapy, CBT is effective for helping you move out of stagnation and into accountable action when working on achieving specific goals. Goals are set and tracked within the therapy so you are not alone in them. It is sometimes not enough to gain insight and do emotional healing in therapy, we often need to work toward concrete behavioral changes. CBT lets us do just that. Emotional Freedom Technique-- Also referred to as “tapping”, this healing modality is used specifically to reduce cortisol levels in your blood stream which will in turn ease depression and anxiety. Cortisol is the hormone released by the brain’s amygdala gland when under stress— sometimes resulting in paralyzing fears. Once cortisol levels reduce, you will often feel able to handle whatever is challenging you in a more direct, effective manner. How do you work in couples counseling? As well as being a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am also a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist. If you are currently experiencing issues in your romantic relationship, it is important to find a therapist who has specific couples training to help you. Imago relationship therapy is one of the most renowned therapies in treating couples. Imago therapy is based on learning effective “mirroring” communication skills, being able to hold each person’s experience in equal esteem, and making decisions in a cooperative / safe way. In the process we heal the “unfinished business of childhood” (i.e. past hurts or issues) that we transfer over from our family of origin to our adult romantic partners. As a result of this kind of healing we gain greater maturity, intimacy, and fulfillment in relationships. See the Imago Couples Therapy section of this site for more. What about life coaching? I am also a Certified Strategic Intervention Life Coach. Tony Robbins and Cloe Madanes developed this form of life coaching. The coaching is based off Mr. Robbins’ research and seminars as well as Ms. Madanes’ experience as a psychotherapist and author. Together they coined the theory of “Human Needs Psychology”. This theory states that all of our behaviors and beliefs are driven by six basic needs. When these needs are made conscious we are better equipped at fulfilling them in ways that provide optimal growth and happiness. Life coaching might best be thought of as a form of unique behavioral therapy. That is, when you stop ruminating on the reasons things are not working out, and start changing your behavior to act in accord with what you say you want, your goals can be achieved. I also run men's groups. Please inquire for more info. If you're ready to take a step toward change, contact me. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if this might be a good fit for you.

Do you often end up angry and in unintended arguments, when all you really wanted was to have a quiet conversation? Feeling unheard and unappreciated? Sometimes, all you might need is some help finding out why your communication gets lost - and how to get back on track. For 30+ years, I've been helping professional men, woman, teens, and families learn how to communicate without conflict. Change is possible - even if you can't see that right now! I can help you figure out the "why" of your struggle and the practical strategies you can use to cope with anger and communicate more effectively. If you've been wanting to try counseling, but keep putting it off - why wait any longer when you can get the help you need right now? I invite you to call or email me now to schedule an appointment, arrange a free phone consultation or just to get some questions answered.”

The CBT treatment approach allows significant improvement to occur much earlier than in traditional talk therapy.

Overwhelming research suggests cognitive behavioral therapy is the most effective treatment for most disorders, with numerous studies supporting CBT treatment for depression and anxiety.

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.

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.

Communication is often at the heart of relationship challenges, with many couples feeling as though they’re speaking entirely different languages. A simple conversation can unexpectedly spiral into a heated argument, confusing both partners about what went wrong. But some powerful tools and skills can help you truly hear and respond to each other in a healthy, supportive way. Learn to recognize your triggers, understand your partner’s, and approach each other with compassion. Reach out for an appointment to get your relationship back on track—together, we’ll build a foundation of mutual understanding and love. Our families shape how we connect with others, making it especially painful when adult children and their parents experience a rift. Estrangement can leave both sides feeling a deep sense of loss, as though even the most important conversations feel out of reach. Jeannette York is here to help bridge that gap. In therapy, you’ll find a safe, nurturing space to explore these complex issues, address past hurts, and work toward a renewed bond. Discover a path back to open, respectful, and authentic communication that honors both your needs and the relationship. Sibling relationships can be equally complex and fraught with challenges, especially in adulthood. Long-standing rivalries, unresolved issues, and differing life paths can create tension or distance. Through adult sibling therapy, Jeannette York helps siblings navigate these complexities, heal old wounds, and rebuild connections. By fostering empathy, improving communication skills, and addressing underlying issues, adult siblings can find a renewed sense of closeness and understanding. Take the first step toward a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with your family by reaching out today. .

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. I am able to help you by providing you a safe environment where you can express yourself without feeling judged or criticized.

I have over 25 years experience in the field of therapy and counseling and have worked in a wide variety of settings from family preservation work, hospice, HIV/AIDS, to geriatrics.

When DIVORCE feels like the answer, and that thought breaks your heart. Overwhelmed by shock, anger, disappointment, regret and deep sorrow. Exhausted and frozen by confusion, fear, humiliation and hopelessness. When you try to reach out - talk - all you get are bitter battles full of hate, venom and rejection. A peaceful place with an understanding counselor can help calm your emotional tidal waves, stop intrusive, hurtful thoughts, and help you find your way again. Even if the cause is an affair, an addiction, family or work stress. I know it can be difficult - embarrassing to discuss your very personal and private world with a stranger. I do not judge or criticize, not your thoughts, not your actions or you. I specialize in healing the underlying pain which created the tidal wave of emotions in the first place. Come experience a soothing approach, in a calming environment, all designed to speed healing. I would be honored to share with you my two decades of experience, and my unique combination of talk and alternative therapies. A new start begins with a phone call. Ask for Dr. Mickey.

Your happy outgoing child has been replaced by a sullen, withdrawn, miserably unhappy teen. Or worse, your love, care, concern and soft questions are answered with arguments, disrespect, screaming, tears. Worry and fear for your teen is controlling your entire life. You've tried everything - setting boundaries, making demands, hurling threats. They're met with more withdrawal, or out of control partying, accusations, yelling, screaming, crying, regret and exhaustion. What if you could learn how to successfully reconnect with your teen? What if hurts could be healed? No matter the cause - addiction, alcohol abuse, drugs abuse, binging, defiant behavior, anxiety, depression, suicide attempts, suicide of a friend or family member... I know it can be uncomfortable, embarrassing, even frightening, to discuss your very personal and private family situation with a stranger. I do not judge or criticize. Not you, your actions, or your family. I specialize in healing the underlying pain, and bringing families together. I raised 3 step-children and have 25+ years in this profession. Come experience a different approach to teen counseling and family conflict. I would be honored to help. Healing starts today. Ask for Coach Mickey.

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.

I have a balanced male and female perspective when working with couples. I help address how families get out of balance while juggling competing individual and family demands. I am a cut-to-the-chase, bottom line therapist who utilizes real life education, training and experience to address problems facing people today. I offer extensive experience working with difficult adolescents and confronting parent/teen conflict(s). I work to uncover underlying problems contributing to the breakdown of the family including: co-parenting conflict, addictions, domestic violence and/or simple communication skill issues.

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. I am also a professor Emeritus at Cal State University, Los Angeles where I taught for 30 years (now retired). 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 offer psychotherapy services that will help you explore whatever it is that might be holding you back from living a vital and robust life. I can help you get your life on a track that will truly put you in touch with “happiness.” When we’re speaking to someone who is truly listening to us in a non-judgmental way we end up saying things we didn’t know we were going to say. This is therapeutic. When we talk to someone whom we feel truly hears us and “gets” us, who accepts us as we are . . . we begin to feel freer to reveal to that person (and, by proxy, to ourselves) more of who we really are. This is therapeutic. The healing that occurs in this safe space of speaking and being heard and seen is rarely duplicated in the world outside the consulting room. If you’re fortunate enough to have someone who gives you this kind of attention, then you know how precious that is. I create a safe space for revealing and discovering who you are, how you’re being in the world, and, if necessary, why? I help you find in yourself your preferred mode of being, to create more effective ways of getting what you want out of your life, and I work with you to execute a plan to make that happen. My work with couples (of any sexual orientation) includes conflict reduction, improving communication, and creating more intimate and ultimately satisfying relationships. There is often a breakdown in communication that takes place within a couple and leads to conflict, tension and even the dissolution of the bonded relationship altogether. Luckily, couples therapy addresses what is being said between two people, what is being heard, and what to do when the couple needs help finding a way to re-connect and enjoy each other again. There are few things more painful than feeling like you’ve lost the love you once shared with someone. If you’re in this position, you know exactly what I mean. It’s heartbreaking to feel disconnected from your loved one. Maybe the passion is missing, your day to day routine has dulled the spontaneity you once had, or you just don’t seem to know how to talk to each other anymore. I love working with couples because I get to be part of a process that allows people to restore their ability to experience companionship in a healthy and satisfying way.

My practice is a unique type of practice. I am a firm believer that 2 heads are better than one. So, I have decided to form a group network of therapists who collaborate together to provide the best services that we can offer! We do more than just one therapist can do alone. I hired a team of licensed therapists who could work together, each offering a unique perspective, training and expertise, enabling us all to be able to provide you with better trained, skilled and experienced clinicians because we cross-train each other! We discuss case issues and collaborate to offer superior services to our clientele! For example, I am the owner and director of LA Therapy Network. I am a feminist therapist, have special knowledge and experience helping women in transitions and transitional ages, am expert in the treatment of trauma and trauma related syndromes, and I have over 25 years working with alternative families, adolescents, women and various sexual and gender variant communities. I am especially knowledgeable about women's issues, sex crimes, impact of sudden deaths, teen issues and the GLBTQI communities. I am trained in the treatment of extreme forms of trauma and chronic, repeated abuse/violence. If you are a person dealing with rape, incest or sexual abuse/violence for example, I am ideal therapist to contact. However I don't have as much experience in the treatment of couples, but I do have 2 therapists who are excellent at treating couples! So, if you are a gay male couple who is seeking a sensitive therapist who has an expertise in trauma you may seek me out. I will consult with my colleagues who treat couples to ensure that I am providing you with better care. I have ready access to therapists who are more knowledgeable and thus you benefit! Whereas if I were in practice on my own, you'd be left to getting only my knowledge and you'd have to hope I knew enough about what I was doing. This is really the truth about individual private practices. A therapist only is as good as his/her training. And let’s face it, there is only so much one can focus their training on. Thus... a group network of therapists makes all of us better! I make sure that every therapist here has different training, expertise and approaches and understandings of how to help clients. That way we all benefit... and that means we can pass our skills as a team onto you! It’s like getting an entire skilled clinical team of experts in one therapist! In addition, let’s say there are situations where I want to refer you out to seek additional services. Often I am just going to refer you to another member of my team. That way you are going to get a better chance of us collaborating closely together! Not so if I were just working on my own. I'd send you out to another professional who is working solo as well. The truth is we won't talk a lot. That means you as the customer get less than ideal care. That’s the whole idea of why I formed LATN, LA Therapy Network!

I am a marriage and family therapist who actually specializes in marriage and families. I work with individuals, couples and families--children, young adults, adults and seniors--who want to resolve problems and enhance their relationships. Even in the best circumstances we all face the challenges that everyday living brings....work and school problems, parenting challenges, financial concerns, fidelity and trust and day-to-day stress. Working from a perspective that each person knows himself or herself best, we work as a team to uncover your strengths and use them to reach your goaIs. I have been in practice for over 30 years. Originally I worked with children and adolescents and found that soon after the children completed therapy, their parents would call regarding their relationship. Many called because they felt comfortable coming to me with their issues after seeing the changes in their children. After about 10 years I began seeing the teenage and young adult children of original couples with whom I worked. They, in turn, recommended their friends and associates. A large part of my practice now is the people between16 and 40. Still, many of my clients are couples who have issues with fidelity, feel angry or resentful, or have lost the "spark"and want to try to improve their relationship and save their marriage. Most want to do more than just"save it" and we work together to enhance their ability to empathize with each other and develop skills to interact with each other in more respectful and loving ways. My practice uses a variety of modalities including cognitive-behavioral, narrative, humanistic and psychodynamic as well as guided imagery, meditation, role play and other methods based on what works best with each particular client.

As a firm believer in people's innate capacity for healing and growth, my therapeutic approach centers on empowering my clients' confidence and assisting them to adopt a balanced approach to life. My personal devotion to natural living guides my non-pharmaceutical treatment approach which relies mainly on the CBT and humanistic/existential approaches. To optimize treatment outcome I carefully tailor my interventions to the specific needs and styles of my clients. My goal is to help you fall in love with life again and obtain a state of internal balance which is the key for a happy, healthy, and meaningful life. In addition to providing individual, couple, and family psychotherapy, I facilitates workshops, seminars, and lectures on a variety of topics to professional organizations and at personal events.

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.
