Evidence-based therapy, personalized for you.

We specialize in guiding clients toward behavior change and emotional wellbeing using evidence-based therapies.

And, we believe research only helps us do our job if we’re balancing it with humor and humanity.

How We Approach Therapy

We prioritize purpose.

Everything we bring to our sessions — the questions we ask, our tone of voice, the homework we assign — is meant to bring you one step closer to your goals.

We believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship.

And researchers do too! Yes, being therapists is our job. But we’re also people who genuinely care about you and your wellbeing, and we’ll make sure you know it!

We use evidence-based therapies and interventions.

We’ll bring to session a variety of research-backed therapeutic techniques to ensure you’re receiving the highest quality care.

We don’t sit back and wait for change to happen.

We can’t afford to if we expect to help you heal. In sessions we’ll cheer, challenge, and redirect so you know we’re with you in the process and guiding you along the way.

How Therapy at Sawtelle Psych Works

Step 1: Schedule a fee consultation call

Step 2: Meet for an intake session

Reach out using the contact form on our website and we will get back to you within 24 hours to learn more about your needs and match you with the right therapist.

In our first session together, we’ll get to know you, explore your history, and define your goals for therapy so we know what progress looks like.

Together, we’ll uncover patterns of thinking and behavior that are holding you back from living the life you want, and experiment with skills and strategies that bring you relief.

Step 4: Evaluate progress and sustain change

Step 3: Start the therapeutic work

We’ll take time to look back on what has been most helpful in reaching your goals and make a maintenance plan so your therapy gains are long-lasting.
