I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Santa Barbara, California. My practice blends both psychological approach as well as eastern wisdom. With a diverse background of professional and life experiences, I bring empathy, warmth, and a solution-focused mindset to my clients. My goal is to help clients alleviate suffering, boost their productivitiy, and enhance well-being.
Weather you have been considering therapy, worked with therapy in the past or loved ones are suggesting reaching out-welcome to my practice. I work with individuals, couples and families in the assessment and treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, career issues, job dissatisfaction. My specialty areas included the assessment and treatment of Perinatal and Postpartum Depression/Anxiety and Grief and Loss.
I was always drawn to people who went unseen or unheard. Others told me I had a calm voice and that they could tell me anything. That led to a lifelong study of how people free themselves from their own patterns, later deepened by psychoanalysis and professional work in eating disorders, addiction treatment, and managed care settings like Kaiser.
I work in a collaborative process with older teens (15yrs old and above), couples, and individual adults who are motivated to find their inner voice and know their highest selves. My clients are focused on setting boundaries, assertive and effective communication skills, healthy relationships, self-advocacy, and self-efficacy. My clients are willing to reflect on sessions outside of the therapeutic hour, and are receptive to occasional homework. I am here to meet you halfway.
Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in California. I received my Doctorate Degree from Alliant International University in Fresno. I was born in Southern California and raised in the Bay Area. I have been practicing for 10 years and I enjoy empowering adults in their journey of overcoming their mental health challenges. I motivate clients for change and promote their personal growth.
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.
Hello, I'm Dr. Judy C Kelly, PsyD, LMFT. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with over ten years of experience working with teens, adults and couples. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Southern California (USC), graduate studies at Argosy University and doctorate at California Southern University.
Life can feel overwhelming at times, whether you're dealing with depression, relationship challenges, parenting stress, trauma, or grief. You don't have to navigate it alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel human—not rushed or impersonal.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Simi Valley
Searching for therapists in Simi Valley starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or work stress. As you compare Simi Valley therapists, look for specialties and approaches listed in each profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, acceptance and commitment therapy, or family therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from working together.
Simi Valley has local options for in-person therapy, while virtual therapy can expand your choices across California. This can be useful if you need appointment times that fit around work, school, caregiving, or commuting within Ventura County and nearby areas. When narrowing your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers the session format you prefer, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, listed specialties, and scheduling details in one place.
Therapy in Simi Valley can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists in Simi Valley, CA who match your preferences and offer virtual or in-person appointments. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can check your coverage for your specific plan before booking. You can browse therapists, review bios, check your coverage, 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.
