Hello! My name is Melanie Lapeyrolerie, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, California. I offer in-person therapy in West Los Angeles and telehealth services to clients throughout the state. I work with a diverse range of individuals, from young adults to seniors aged 18 to 71. My specialties include treating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and alcohol and substance use disorders. To support my clients in enhancing their daily lives and overall well-being, I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Mindfulness, among others.
You've done meaningful therapeutic work and you're ready to go deeper. You're successful in the external markers of your life, but you know there's more—greater depth, connection, and purpose waiting for you. You've addressed foundational trauma, and now you want to explore subtler patterns: how you hold back in intimacy, the meanings you're searching for, the fuller expression of yourself you sense is possible. You may be curious about psychedelic-assisted therapy as a tool for profound insight. You're not dealing with crisis, but are looking for a guide who can support you in moving from survival to fully living in your wholeness.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a PhD and 34 years of experience, offering telehealth therapy to clients in California. I'm most in my element with people who are learning their needs, what's getting in their way and feel ready to meet their challenges. My clients come from all walks of life. I help those who are too hard on themselves to become their own best friend.
Hi, I'm Danica Trinidad, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I've spent my career in critical care, inpatient psychiatry, and outpatient mental health, caring for patients of every age and acuity, and that range is the reason I check the medical picture before I settle on a psychiatric explanation.
I treat adults living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, panic, trauma, and PTSD. My work combines medication management with psychotherapy, practical lifestyle changes, and real education about what you are taking and why. I treat the whole person, not the symptom list.
Your first evaluation is a full sixty minutes, and you see me at every appointment after it; with the same validated measures each visit, so progress is something we can both point at.
I believe in going beyond the belief that all we can do is manage trauma and symptoms forever. I believe our mind, body, and spirit already has the power to overcome it, we just have to learn how to tap into it and put it to use
My name is Ben Zinke and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the States of Idaho and California.
