Mental Health Clinic

“We are a non-profit family mental health clinic and parenting support center. We believe everyone deserves a place to feel supported — especially new parents. By strengthening connections, healing the past, and providing opportunities for social support, we help individuals, families and communities thrive.”

About us

We have served Venice and the West Los Angeles area since 2008, providing affordable counseling for adults, couples, children, and families, both in person and online.

Approach

Our counselors can help adult individuals and couples with anxiety, depression, loneliness and isolation, perinatal mood disorders, separation, divorce, co-parenting, marital conflict, and intimacy issues. Child therapy (in-person only for children under age 8, online option for older kids) can help with self-esteem, behavioral issues, peer and family relationships, anxiety and depression. Our psychodynamic and behavioral-trauma informed treatment model aims to foster better communication among family members, reduce family dysfunction, and provide valuable insights to promote psychological growth.
