Tarzana Therapists specializing in Depression

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dayae Kim

I specialize in working with young adults and adults who are experiencing stress and struggling due to life transitions such as a change in career, starting a new relationship, and moving and due to relational difficulties with their partners, families, and friends. My clients appreciate the relaxed and comfortable setting that allows them to be open and honest. Together, we will figure out goals and tangible solutions to achieve them and ways to reduce anxiety and decrease depressive symptoms.

Alexa Brand

I work with survivors of acute and complex trauma who tend to be perfectionists and struggle with self-criticalness. Generally, my clients are women and LGBTQ+ adolescents and young adults. Many of my clients internalize the stigma and shame conditioned by our society's oppressive norms and politics. I help my clients find self-compassion, embrace their authenticity, and process their trauma from an intersectional, warm approach that always emphasizes fostering safety rather than "fixing."

Olivia Clark

My clients are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and identity development. Most of my clients have a history of trauma and experience self-judgement and self -doubt. My clients tend to feel held back in some area of their life, often exacerbated by oppressive systems within our society. I help clients to build their self-esteem and foster understanding and empathy. With compassion, I help clients cope with stressors and assist them in building a more meaningful life.

Laura Sgro

I work with folks from all walks of life who are looking to build (or re-build) their connection to themselves and others. My clients often struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, self-worth, perfectionism, dysfunctional family dynamics, relationship issues, and exploring their identities. I work within an intersectional perspective to cultivate a space that is inclusive and welcoming to all so my clients can feel safe to embrace vulnerability and explore themselves deeply.

Online Therapy

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.

Alex Lewin

I have a special passion for working with artists and creative professionals as they wrestle with fears, fantasies, depressions, manias, and all the challenges not only of making art but of making a living through art. I also love working with adolescents — how I wish I'd had a therapist when I was in high school! — as well as folks working through addiction and recovery. I also work with couples of all stripes and with patients who are, like me, part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Jennie Steinberg

It is possible to simultaneously feel like always too much and never enough. My clients are the adults who were labeled gifted as children and feel like they'll never live up to their potential, the overachievers who don't feel fulfilled, and the "awkward ducks" who always feel like they're missing the memo. I'm also a certified perinatal mental health professional, specializing in infertility, high-risk pregnancy, and the transition to new parenthood.
