Therapist

Virtual • California


I work with teens, young adults, and families navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance use, identity exploration, family conflict, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Whether you're feeling stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next, therapy can provide a space to better understand yourself and move toward meaningful change.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely understood, supported, and accepted for who they are. Together, we build on strengths, develop practical coping skills, and explore the patterns that may be getting in the way of living a more fulfilling life.

I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can be honest, reflective, and fully themselves without fear of judgment. My goal is not only to help clients navigate current challenges but also to foster greater resilience, self-awareness, confidence, and connection.

Olivia Miller

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hi! I'm Olivia. I've been in therapy practice for six years, and am grateful for the opportunity to get to know you! As a queer and neurodivergent person, my career as a therapist has always moved in tandem with my commitment to social and economic justice. My work has taken me to settings with folks experiencing homelessness in South Los Angeles; with justice-involved adults in treatment court diversion programs in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood; in young adult shelters for art therapy groups; with low-income immigrant parents of young children; and with teens and young adults with significant trauma histories.

Through all my roles I always commit to centering community and individual strengths that help arm my clients with the tools necessary to repel various types of systemic violence and oppression. I believe that therapy is inherently political because being human is political.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Los Angeles

Finding family therapists in Los Angeles starts with identifying what your family wants support with and what kind of therapist is trained for that work. Family therapy may help with parenting conflict, adolescent concerns, blended family dynamics, communication challenges, or stress across generations. Family therapists, including marriage and family therapists, are trained to work with the relational system, rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare profiles, look for experience with your family’s specific needs, such as parent-child relationships, sibling conflict, school-related concerns, or life transitions.

Los Angeles has many therapists across neighborhoods like Silver Lake, Long Beach, Pasadena, West LA, and the San Fernando Valley, so the number of options can make the search harder to narrow. Consider whether in-person sessions fit your commute, parking needs, and schedule, or whether virtual appointments make it easier for family members in different locations to attend. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, smaller groups within the family, or individual members at different points. Reading therapist bios can help you understand session structure, communication style, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.

Family counseling in Los Angeles can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first appointment. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who offer family counseling in Los Angeles and have current availability. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan on Headway. You can compare bios, filter by what matters to you, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
