I'm a licensed psychotherapist and I've been working clinically since 2015. I use David Burns' TEAM-CBT approach (he has several great books you might be familiar with). However, sometimes CBT feels too focused on thoughts. In those cases, I tend to use DBT interventions which include more emotional awareness and regulation.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents and adults across a range of emotional and behavioral concerns. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is supportive, respectful, and non-judgmental, where clients feel safe to explore their experiences openly. I believe that emotional distress is a natural response to life’s challenges and that, with appropriate support, individuals can develop insight, resilience, and effective coping strategies. I am committed to working collaboratively with clients from diverse backgrounds and identities, including LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse individuals, and I prioritize creating an affirming and inclusive therapeutic space.
Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. Reaching 20 years in practice is a milestone I hold with deep gratitude, as it reflects two decades of walking alongside individuals and couples as they navigate life’s transitions, challenges, and growth.
Hi! I'm andrew (Drew) Sutherland. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist focusing on helping people feel better day to day, month to month, or year to year. Do you feel like you should be enjoying life more? Do thoughts of the past or images from a future keep you from moving forward with the things you want to do? Do you feel as if you are a passenger in your life rather than the one driving action, growth, change, and happiness? I understand. I felt the same way before I began my mental health journey. I use a client centered approach and tailor my work to what you need. You are in the driver's seat. Together, we will collaboratively work to help you become what you have only imagined.
My Ph.D. is from Biola University, and I completed my clinical internship and post-doctoral training at Aurora San Diego, a psychiatric facility where I worked with civilian and active-duty military adults. That training grounded me in CBT, ACT, DBT, and trauma-focused therapy, including CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) for trauma, with extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. I have been working with clients since 2019 and became a licensed psychologist in California in 2026.
Outside of work, I'm usually training for my next Spartan race, swing dancing, deep in a Lego build, or out exploring a trail. I'm also an avid reader and always on the hunt for a good new coffee shop.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in North Hollywood
Searching for therapists in North Hollywood starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may list focus areas such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for training, specialties, and approaches that fit your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In North Hollywood, local office options may vary by neighborhood, from Toluca Lake and Valley Village to nearby Studio City. Virtual therapy can expand your search if you want more scheduling options or prefer care from home. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what each therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in North Hollywood can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
