Teletherapy | Culver City
In Culver City, a 50-minute therapy session can easily become a much bigger commitment once you add production schedules, studio deadlines, traffic on the 405 or the 10, and everything else competing for your time.
Teletherapy in Culver City gives you a way to get meaningful mental health support without adding another commute to your week.
I offer psychotherapy and telehealth appointments to adults and couples throughout California, including Culver City, CA. Sessions take place through a secure video platform from wherever you feel comfortable and able to speak openly. You don’t need to rearrange your entire day to prioritize your mental health and well-being.
Why Teletherapy Fits Culver City Life
Culver City sits at the crossroads of studios, tech offices, and residential neighborhoods, which often means long hours and unpredictable schedules.
Creative professionals, tech workers, and others in fast-paced fields may find that an in-person appointment across town becomes difficult to keep when the workday doesn’t follow a predictable rhythm.
Westside traffic adds another layer. A therapy session that should take an hour can easily consume two or more once you factor in getting there, parking, and driving back.
Teletherapy removes that barrier.
It also means you aren’t limited to therapists who happen to have an office nearby. As long as you’re physically located in California, you can meet with me from a private space that works for you.
For parents, caregivers, or anyone managing a full household, online therapy can also reduce the need to arrange childcare or leave work early just to make an appointment.
Mental Health Support for Culver City, CA
Therapy gives you a place to work through what’s weighing on you, whether that’s anxiety, stress management, a difficult relationship pattern, personal growth, or a season of significant life changes.
Many people seek mental health support during life transitions: a new job, a move, a breakup, a change in family dynamics, or simply the accumulation of stress that’s become harder to carry.
Others may be dealing with low mood or depression alongside anxiety, relationship stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed.
I provide mental health services for a range of concerns, grounded in trauma-informed care and shaped around what’s actually happening in your life rather than a one-size-fits-all treatment plan.
My work is strongly relational, meaning we look at how your relationships, past and present, may be shaping what you’re experiencing now.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is a place to slow down and better understand your own patterns: how you respond to stress, how you relate to other people, and how you relate to yourself. Therapy sessions typically run 50 minutes and give us room to explore anxiety, self-doubt, work stress, relationship issues, life transitions, or deeply rooted patterns that keep showing up despite your efforts to change them. Along the way, we may develop practical coping skills, strengthen emotional resilience, and look at ways to manage anxiety more effectively. The goal isn't a quick fix. It's meaningful change that develops through consistent, collaborative work.
Online Couples Therapy
Couples therapy focuses on the relationship itself: how you communicate, what happens when conflict escalates, and how emotionally connected you feel to one another.
I work with couples navigating relationship stress, repeating conflict cycles, emotional distance, and patterns that leave one or both partners feeling unheard or misunderstood.
Meeting online can make couples therapy easier to coordinate, especially when two busy schedules, work demands, or family responsibilities make an in-person appointment difficult.
My Approach
My work draws on evidence-based treatments while placing a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship itself as an important part of healing.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I take a holistic approach that considers your relationships, personal history, emotional responses, and nervous system, not simply the symptom in front of us.
Our work is collaborative and shaped around your unique needs.
Some of it may be practical, such as building coping strategies, learning to recognize stress responses earlier, or gaining clarity around a pattern you’ve been stuck in.
Alongside that is the deeper work of understanding where those patterns came from and fostering resilience, emotional well-being, and healthier relationships over time.
Areas I support include:
- Individual therapy for anxiety, self-doubt, stress, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed
- Attachment therapy for understanding recurring relationship patterns
- EFT couples therapy for partners who want greater emotional connection and understanding
- High conflict couples therapy for relationships caught in repeating cycles of tension or disconnection
- Relational trauma-informed therapy for understanding the impact of difficult or painful relationships, without EMDR or intensive trauma processing
- Nervous system regulation for recognizing and calming the body’s response to stress
- People pleasing therapy for adults who struggle with boundaries or consistently put other people’s needs ahead of their own
The goal is quality care that feels personal, non-judgmental, and relevant to your actual life.
Who Teletherapy Is a Good Fit For
Teletherapy can work especially well if you:
- Have a demanding or unpredictable work schedule
- Want to avoid losing time to Westside traffic or commuting
- Prefer the privacy of meeting from your own space
- Are balancing caregiving or family responsibilities
- Travel within California or have a schedule that changes frequently
- Feel more comfortable opening up from a familiar environment
Online therapy isn’t right for every situation.
If you’re experiencing an immediate mental health crisis or need a higher level of treatment, teletherapy isn’t a substitute for that care.
For many adults working through anxiety, relationship issues, stress, personal growth, or life transitions, however, teletherapy can offer the depth and consistency of regular therapy without the commute.
What to Expect From Teletherapy
Getting started is simple.
After you reach out, we’ll schedule an initial consultation to talk about what’s bringing you to therapy and whether working together feels like the right fit.
Your first session typically includes a fuller intake, giving us time to understand your history, current concerns, relationships, and what you hope to get from treatment.
For your ongoing therapy sessions, you’ll need a stable internet connection, a device with a camera, and a private space where you can speak freely.
Sessions can take place over secure video, with phone sessions available when appropriate.
I’ll provide the information you need to connect before your appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is teletherapy as effective as in-person therapy?
For many people, yes.
Research suggests that online therapy can provide outcomes comparable to in-person treatment for many mental health concerns.
What matters greatly is the quality of the relationship between you and your therapist, consistency of treatment, and your willingness to engage in the process. That therapeutic connection can develop online just as it can in person.
What concerns can teletherapy help with?
Online therapy can support people dealing with anxiety, stress, relationship issues, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, low mood or depression, and the impact of difficult past relationships.
Whether my particular approach is right for your mental health concerns is something we can discuss during your consultation.

Yes.
I’m licensed to provide therapy to clients who are physically located in California during our appointments. This requirement applies to teletherapy just as it does to in-person care.

Yes.
Sessions take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, and the same professional confidentiality standards that apply to in-person therapy apply online.
Can couples do therapy online together?
Yes.
Many couples find online therapy easier to coordinate, particularly when work schedules or family responsibilities make meeting in person difficult.
What happens during the first session?
The first session is largely about understanding you.
We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, your history, the challenges you’re experiencing now, and what you hope will change. From there, we’ll begin identifying a useful direction for our work together.

No.
I provide psychotherapy, not medication management. If medication or another form of medical treatment becomes relevant, you can work with an appropriate healthcare provider alongside therapy.
