Westlake Village Therapists specializing in Grief or Loss

Sabrina Samedi

Feeling stuck? Struggling to identify goals? Feeling as if your body image and relationship to food has become overwhelming? Whether you are having a hard time answering these questions or the answers are ingrained in you, I am here to support you! Authenticity and empowerment are the focus of my therapeutic style. Together, let's take a look at what is and is not serving you in life right now. I work through story, tools and feedback to help clients realign with their true self.

Norine Vander Hooven

I help people who have experienced severe traumatic events (shootings, accidents, witnessed a loved one die, grieving a loved one,...). I also have people come to me to learn how to communicate in their relationships, parenting concerns, life transitions at any point in one's life, and daily stress. Sometimes my clients struggle to get out of bed in the morning, have difficulty with crying a lot or being very short tempered with others. They come to me because they feel stuck in their lives.

Amanda Jennings

Do you notice that you worry more about what others think of you than what you think of you? Maybe you look around the room and compare yourself to others. Are you always "watching your weight" or trying a new diet? At first you felt like you were controlling the food, but now it seems like the food is controlling you. It's all you can think about. I've been treating people with various levels of eating disorders for almost 20 years. You and I can work together to get your life back.

Gabriel Cooper

I welcome clients from young adulthood through retirement. While I work with all psychological and relational concerns, many of my clients seek to address dating/relationships, navigating major transitions, management of depression and anxiety, and processing deeper trauma. I hold particular expertise with gifted individuals and the LGBTQ2+ community.

Molly Nestor Kaye

I tend to work with folks who are curious about themselves, others, and the human condition in general. My clients often come to therapy recognizing that they have endured relational and/or societal trauma and knowing how it impacts them. However, they feel unsure of how to reckon with, heal, and integrate their traumatic experiences. My clients are ready to live more expansively, have more balanced relationships, and feel more grounded in their daily life but need support to get there.

Lankavi Moore

I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and adults facing issues in the areas of depression, anxiety, life transitions, family dynamics, and racial/cultural identity. As an immigrant myself, I particularly enjoy working with South Asian, BIPOC, and first-generation individuals and couples. I work well with clients who are committed to making meaningful change in their lives and strive to break the dysfunctional cycles keeping them stagnant.

Taking the first step in seeing a therapist can be nerve-wracking. However, if you feel it's time to make a change, I encourage you to reach out. Your concerns will be met with support, warmth, and a variety of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. If you have questions or are curious about working together, I am happy to chat over a free 15-minute phone consultation. I am licensed in California and look forward to meeting you.

Michelle Sargent

Are you or your child feeling anxious all the time? Always on high alert, edgy and ready to snap? Have you been through a traumatic or stressful event and have a hard time coping? Do you feel hopeless, stuck, lost or unmoored? Is your child acting out, and you can’t figure out why? These symptoms are our soul’s way of letting us know we need support. I can help you safely work through difficult issues and experiences, and learn new skills to effectively make your way through this complex world.

christine loeb

My clients express frustration with relationships and a need for guidance at a difficult time. We are- many of us- working to heal from family conflict and to recover from disordered eating, insufficient sleep, and an overabundance of substance usage in society. Living in an atmosphere of fear, blame, and comparison we seek to grow and thrive in our current world.

Katherine Merritt

Are you someone who keeps it all together but finds yourself feeling panicked, dissatisfied, or disconnected from others? Maybe you're processing a devastating recent or long-standing loss. I work with people who want to improve their relationships, find fulfillment in life, and do the deep self-exploratory work that leads to feeling more at ease with yourself despite the unpredictability of life.

Online Therapy

Katie Chaudry

If you're looking for a holistic and practical approach to healing, we are likely a good fit for each other! I often attract young adults who are struggling with feelings of anxiety, past trauma, and want to live a more meaningful life because I have struggled in these exact areas and have similar intentions myself. I value practicing what I preach and offer support in the ways that have been most helpful in my own life.

Sarah Segal

Have you noticed that it's in the places you are supposed to be most relaxed (meditation, vacation, weekends, sleep) that your mind feels louder than ever? It might feel like the idea of letting your thoughts go is meant for “normal” people and that does not include you. Maybe you stand guard to keep yourself from your worst case, as if your attention to your thoughts keeps you from descending into unimaginable fear. I can help you sift through the noise and regain your confidence in yourself.

Tamala Poljak

People seek therapy for so many reasons, but mostly we all want to feel loved, safe & understood. We want to feel a sense purpose & feel good enough as we are & yet so many of us struggle to feel these ways. Sometimes our lives look very different than we imagined & we need help making sense out of things. We might be feeling disconnected or numb, uncertain or alone. We might be questioning who we are or the direction we are heading & need to find some clarity, perspective or hope.

Nicole Bermensolo

I have had the privilege of working with children, adults, couples, and families of diverse cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, religions, and gender spectrums. I love the work I do and find it fulfilling, meaningful and beautiful. I feel grateful for the people that trust in me and allow me into their lives. I seek to establish a trusting, accepting, and collaborative relationship with my clients to support them in navigating life's many challenges.

Mary Ann Rege

Do you find yourself pushing the metaphorical boulder up hill or juggling too many balls in the air? Perhaps the depression beast currently has the upper hand, anxiety is squeezing the joy out of you, or you're running at warp speed. Whatever your circumstance, life can be a lot! I work in a variety of ways including evidence-based practices, mind-body applications, and teaching practical skills which don't consume a lot of time to help you feel the AHHHHH of life instead of the UGH!

Kaitlyn Power

Life, especially nowadays, comes with unparalleled challenges, and I hope to provide support and compassion to encourage my clients to feel safe in expressing their current thoughts and feelings about their unique life circumstances. I aim to help my clients make more more satisfying life choices through increased insight into how their mind works. This will in turn help my clients better tackle life's challenges, especially surrounding life transitions, relationships, and family issues.

I work with clients who exhibit a range of needs. Whether you are struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, OCD, substance use or another "disorder" that is causing you distress, we can work together to help ease your symptoms. I have worked closely with the perinatal community and have extensive knowledge of the postpartum experience.

Laurel Roberts-Meese

You've got a lot going on, and lately it's becoming too much; your relationship is strained, or your anxiety is increasing. Maybe you and your partner are experiencing higher levels of conflict or disconnect. Maybe you've experienced a loss or trauma and feel ungrounded. Or maybe you feel unsatisfied with your life, despite having "everything" you want. Whatever brings you to therapy, you've got an engaged partner in working through it.

Melissa Klass

Being human is hard. When two different people, flaws and all, form a relationship, it’s harder. When those two decide that they want to swing with other couples, that can be even more complicated. Or perhaps they decide to open up their relationship on occasion. What are the boundaries? How about when those two humans become part of a triad, or quad? There might be some unique challenges with that choice as well. And jealousy! Navigating yours, and theirs, is not for the faint of heart.
