Alexis Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMHC, LPC
I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my California Licensure (c;) I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present. You are not alone.

Fuller Life Concepts
Marriage and Family Therapist
Teen depression is more than occasional moodiness—it can affect sleep, motivation, school performance, friendships, and family relationships. Teens may appear withdrawn, irritable, overly tired, or lose interest in activities they once enjoyed. Some struggle silently with feelings of hopelessness, low self-worth, or overwhelming pressure.
At Fuller Life Concepts, we offer 10 session Mood Modifier program that supports compassionate, trauma-informed virtual therapy to help teens understand their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and regain confidence. Our goal is to create a safe space where teens feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with resilience and hope.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
Depression is almost always rooted in the past -- thinking about the past, obsessing about the past, regretting the past. Learning how to live in the moment, in the here and now, can reduce most depression. I'm a strong believer that exercise also can play a significant role in reducing the severity and frequency of depressive episodes. Lifestyle management is crucial for success in this area.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
According to research we have upwards of 70,000 thoughts a day. Most of them pass through us without so much as a “second thought”, but all are informing a sense of how we feel about ourselves, about the world we live in, about the abundance or the scarcity in our lives.
Our thoughts create our feelings and vice versa. For so many of us, “feelings” become an overwhelming, incapacitating part of our existence. What if you didn’t fear feelings? What if you had a clearer understanding of what thoughts had informed those feelings? These feelings and thoughts, which create anxiety, depression, worries, concerns or obsessions etc., can and must be dissected and understood. With insight and understanding comes relief. Situational pressures, breakups, job loss or confusion, a sense of purposelessness, become existential crisis.
In my work with individuals we closely examine the myriad of thoughts that pass through you daily. How do they make you feel? How do they inform your behaviors? It can occur in opposite as well. “I got a feeling he didn’t like me”. The feeling set up thought patterns of insecurity. Which comes first? How? Why? With empathy, insight and understanding, I work with clients to intervene in this process so that you are not just a firestorm of thoughts and feelings, but rather a mindful creation of what you want to feel. Making choices of what you want to think. What do you choose to believe about yourself? What is the narrative you have created for your life and is it accurate? Unpacking childhood memories and life experiences, understanding attachment complexities and desensitizing traumatic events that occur within our lives become primary objectives in the work. Processing in a more adaptive, healthy response with these relationships, traumas and experiences follow.
Together, with love, compassion and understanding, I gently help my clients discover how to live their best and fullest life, expressing the most authentic representation of self that one can be.

Brad Gilmore
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
We all feel and go through periods of depression, a normal state of being. When depression overtakes our ability to function daily, we focus on your innate desire to feel loved and understood on the way to gaining self-acceptance. Therapy can help you readjust your relationship with emotions that may have been previously deemed negative or “bad” in the past, so that you can better decipher the messages that the depression you’re experiencing is attempting to convey to you.

Christopher Schadt
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression is often a response to the emotion system being stifled or shut down. Many men experience depression in response to chronically repressed anger or other emotions that are not socially acceptable to express. Depression also arises out of a stifled desire for connection; once we understand the source of your depression, we can re-work those patterns that are keeping you stuck and help you to find more freedom in how you relate to yourself and others.

Hollywood is the Los Angeles neighborhood synonymous with the entertainment industry, where aspiring performers and industry workers live alongside long-term residents, recent immigrants, and one of the city's most visible homeless populations. Its mental health picture is distinctive: rejection and precarity in creative careers, the gap between the neighborhood's mythology and daily reality, and acute street-level need. Los Angeles' enormous therapy market — including many practitioners specializing in creative and entertainment clients — surrounds the neighborhood.
