Online Therapy in Los Angeles
Telehealth therapy for children, teens, young adults, and parents throughout Los Angeles. From Brentwood to Venice, I bring expert care directly to your home.
Support That Fits Your Life
Los Angeles is busy. Between traffic, work, school, and everything else, finding time for therapy can feel impossible. That's why I offer all sessions via secure telehealth. No commute, no parking, no rushing across town.
Whether you're in Brentwood, Santa Monica, Westwood, Venice, or anywhere in LA, you can access quality therapy from the comfort of your own home. And because I'm licensed in California, Florida, and Utah, I can continue working with you even if you move or travel.
For families across West LA, from Brentwood to Venice to Pacific Palisades, the pace of daily life can make it hard to slow down and notice when a child or teenager is struggling. Parents tell me they feel like they're always managing logistics, and that the stress has a way of becoming invisible until something breaks through. Telehealth means no one has to rearrange their day to get support. Sessions happen from home, wherever home is.

My approach is warm, practical, and grounded in evidence-based techniques. I'm not the therapist who just listens and nods. I'll help you understand what's keeping you stuck and give you real tools to move forward.

My Specialty Areas
-
When worry takes over, everything feels harder. I help teens and young adults understand what's driving their anxiety and learn practical strategies to feel brave again, including ERP for OCD.
-
That voice saying you're not good enough? I use a strengths-based approach to help teens and young adults turn down the volume on self-criticism and start seeing what makes them capable and worthy.
-
New school. Leaving for college. Parents divorcing. A big move. Major changes can shake your sense of identity. I help teens and young adults process what's happening and build resilience so they come through stronger.
-
When everything feels heavy and nothing seems to help, it's hard to know where to start. I create a space to process what's going on while we work together to rebuild motivation, connection, and hope.
-
There's no timeline for grief, and no "right" way to grieve. I help teens, young adults, and children make sense of loss in their own way, honoring what they're feeling without rushing them through it.
-
When tension at home feels constant, everyone suffers. I work with teens, parents, and families to break patterns that aren't working and build healthier ways of communicating.
-
Making friends, reading social cues, knowing what to say. These things don't come naturally to everyone, and I help kids and teens build confidence through practical strategies they can actually use.
-
Morning battles. Stomachaches before class. Refusing to go. I help kids and teens understand what's fueling their fear and develop strategies to face school with more confidence.
-
When your teen pushes back on everything, it's exhausting and often masks something deeper. I help families understand what's driving the behavior and develop strategies that reduce conflict.
-
The relationship between parent and child is the foundation for everything else. When that connection feels strained, I help families rebuild trust and find their way back to each other.

Why choose Light Minds?
Children, teens, and young adults are the focus, not an afterthought.
Many practices in LA list these populations among a long list of people they serve. At Light Minds, children (ages 8+), teens, young adults (18 to 26), and their parents are what the entire practice is built around. That specialization shapes every session.
Evidence-based approaches built for anxiety, OCD, and life transitions.
I use CBT, ERP, and ACT because they work, and because children, teens, and young adults respond well to structured, skills-based therapy that gives them something concrete to take with them between sessions.
The SPACE program for parents.
For families where the child or teen isn't ready for therapy yet, the SPACE program gives parents a way to reduce anxiety-driven patterns at home. I'm certified through the Yale Child Study Center.
Flexibility that fits an LA schedule.
Telehealth sessions are available across California, Florida, and Utah, with morning and evening availability. No commute, no parking, no rearranging your afternoon.
