therapy for adolescents and adults
Los Angeles
The truth is that life can be difficult. So many of us experience ups and downs, unpredictability, anxiety, and feelings of dis-ease. We usually don’t ‘change’, unless there’s a need to do so. When the current way in which we are operating just no longer works, seeking professional support can help. We also don’t need to be in a crisis in order to benefit from therapy - looking inward and taking care of our mental health is always a good idea.
Whatever your reason, know that change is possible and you don't have to figure it all out on your own.
Welcome. My name is Jaynee.
I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor based out of California.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is paramount; therapy requires courage, strength, and trust in yourself and in your therapist. As such, regardless of where you are (or your child is) in their process, I will meet you/them there. I would describe my therapy-style as warm and collaborative. My approach is flexible and tailored to fit your unique needs. Clients appreciate my ability to be direct and authentic.
My areas of specialization include treating the following:
Anxiety
Depression
Drug and Alcohol abuse and addiction
Navigating challenging family-dynamics
School or work-related issues
Life transitions for youth, including pre & post-college
I am also passionate about helping individuals and families who are impacted by the consequences of a loved one's addiction and/or mental health challenges. I recognize that people involved in such dynamics, need and deserve an opportunity to heal too.
Adolescents (12+)
Adults
For the past 10+ years, I have provided both one-on-one and group therapy services to individuals facing a wide-range of emotional, behavioral, and social challenges. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked as a mental health counselor in a variety of residential and outpatient mental health and dual diagnosis treatment settings with both adolescents and adults.
I am a licensed therapist and received a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from USC. I am also a Certified Drug & Alcohol Counselor (CADC-I) through the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals (CCAPP).
