Online Therapy In Los Angeles
Modern, whole person therapy in Los Angeles, California. Flexible & convenient scheduling that fits your busy life.
Therapy for Life in a Fast-Paced City
Living in Los Angeles can be exciting, creative, and full of possibility. It can also be exhausting. Between long commutes, demanding careers, busy social lives, and the pressure to constantly be doing more, it can be difficult to slow down and check in with yourself.
You might look like you’re doing well on the outside while privately feeling anxious, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of what you actually want. Maybe you’re a high achiever who is used to pushing through, a perfectionist who has a hard time letting things be “good enough,” or someone trying to navigate relationships, identity, career changes, or major life transitions.
At ThriveWest Psychotherapy, I provide virtual therapy for people throughout Los Angeles who are looking for thoughtful, specialized support that fits into real life.
Therapy That Fits Your Life in LA
One of the benefits of virtual therapy in Los Angeles is that you don't have to add another commute to your already busy day. You can meet with me from your home, office, or another private space that works for you, without sitting in traffic or spending an hour getting across the city.
Virtual therapy can be especially helpful if you travel frequently, have an unpredictable schedule, work long hours, or simply don't want therapy to become another logistical challenge.
My goal is to create a therapy experience that feels personal, genuine, and accessible. You don't need to have everything figured out before you start therapy. We can begin wherever you are.
What Brings People to Therapy in Los Angeles?
People seek therapy for many different reasons, but some of the concerns I commonly work with include:
Anxiety and chronic overthinking
OCD and intrusive thoughts
Perfectionism and people-pleasing
Burnout and feeling constantly “on”
Career stress and pressure to succeed
Relationship and interpersonal difficulties
Identity and self-worth concerns
Life transitions and major changes
Trauma and difficult past experiences
Challenges related to being queer
Feeling isolated despite being surrounded by people
Difficulty creating authentic relationships and connections
Los Angeles can be a particularly interesting place to navigate these challenges. There is no shortage of people, yet it can still feel surprisingly difficult to find genuine connection. Moving to LA can also mean starting over socially and professionally, especially if you are a transplant trying to build a life in a new city.
You may find yourself surrounded by people while still feeling lonely. You may be successful in your career but unsure whether your life actually feels fulfilling. Or you may be constantly striving for the next goal without giving yourself much space to ask what you actually need. Therapy can give you a place to slow down and explore those questions.
Specialized Therapy for Anxious High Achievers and Creatives, OCD, Trauma, and Queer Clients
I specialize in working with anxious high achievers and creatives, perfectionists, people experiencing OCD and trauma, and queer clients.
If you are someone who is used to being capable, productive, and independent, asking for help can sometimes feel uncomfortable. You may be accustomed to solving problems on your own or pushing through difficult emotions. Therapy isn't about taking away your ambition or changing who you are. Instead, it can help you understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck and develop a different relationship with anxiety, uncertainty, relationships, and yourself.
As a lesbian therapist, I also understand some of the experiences that can come with navigating relationships, identity, community, and belonging as a queer person. I work with people across the LGBTQ+ community and aim to create a space where you don't have to explain or minimize important parts of who you are.
A Space to Slow Down
Los Angeles moves quickly. Therapy doesn't have to. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling burned out from constantly striving, navigating a relationship, questioning your identity, or dealing with intrusive thoughts that won't leave you alone, therapy can give you space to step out of the noise for a while.
You don't have to wait until things become unbearable to reach out. If something in your life isn't working the way you want it to, we can explore it together. I provide virtual therapy to clients in Los Angeles, California, and throughout the state. If you're looking for a therapist who understands the pressures of a fast-paced life and offers specialized support for anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, trauma, and queer-related concerns, I'd love to connect.
