I am a recently licensed counseling psychologist with extensive training and experience in psychotherapy, assessment, and psychology research. I have provided individual, couples, and group therapy at the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center (now LGBT Center), the Los Angeles VA, the Boston VA, and Enki Health Services. I have enjoyed training and supervising student therapists at the University of West Georgia and the University of Redlands. I also teach psychology at UCLA Extension. In general, I am curious about the the human mind and I am dedicated to help others who are struggling.
I love doing this work! I consider it a great privilege to walk alongside my clients, to partner with them, support them in their journey, and witness their growth.

Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist with a passion for walking alongside my clients toward a more fulfilling life. I graduated from Azusa Pacific University with my Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. I use various modalities such as CBT, REBT, Person-Centered, or a combination of approaches and techniques while working with my clients. I can also provide services in Spanish and offer Christian spiritual integration upon request.
Hi there! My name is Jessica Parmar and I am a therapist who works with adults and teens. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a teacher, which continues to shape how I connect, support, and engage with clients. I’m warm, approachable, and genuine, and I care deeply about the work we do together. I’ll meet you at your pace, but I’m not afraid to challenge you when it supports your growth.
Life can be especially difficult for people today. It is my goal to assist all my clients starting at age 3 years, through adults to learn how to make healthy and positive decisions in their lives and to empower them to have a good, healthy self image and to successfully move into their future.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Encino
Searching for therapists in Encino starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Encino therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
Encino is a smaller Los Angeles neighborhood, so the number of nearby in-person offices may vary by schedule, location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in California. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Encino can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, check your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, and choose from therapists accepting new clients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
