There is something different about talking to someone who actually understands your world. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, and challenges with identity and how they see themselves, and I offer sessions in both English and Haitian Creole. I bring particular care to clients from Haitian and Caribbean backgrounds and to women navigating the emotional weight of motherhood, loss, and everything in between. With more than 15 years of experience, I have seen what becomes possible when people feel genuinely seen and free to show up exactly as they are.
Hi there! I am a licensed therapist. My work has been primary with children and young adults who have experienced high trauma. My focus has been treating depression, anxiety and other trauma related disorders.
Hi, I’m Julie. I have been a therapist for almost 20 years. I have experience with individuals and families who are living with mental health issues, and I also have extensive experience helping those with substance use problems. If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can offer a supportive place to feel understood, begin to recover, and reconnect with yourself.
Hi,
I’m Megan , an LMFT , licensed in California. I am an easy going , kind and compassionate psychotherapist who provides a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to process life’s challenges and grow in self awareness . I empower clients to find their peace and restore balance.
Hi, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I provide therapy in a supportive, down to earth, and collaborative way. I earned my degree from the University of Southern California, and I currently work in a Federally Qualified Health Center, where I support individuals and families who may be facing barriers to accessing care. I also served in the United States Air Force, which has shaped my perspective, and understanding of resilience and life transitions.
I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying pain, uncertainty, or self-doubt. But I believe, as a wise old wizard once said, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of places, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” My role is to help you find that light again. I work with Gen Z and Millennial adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. Through integrative, culturally responsive care, I combine evidence-based psychiatry with holistic strategies to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create a life that aligns with your true self.
I’m here to make this journey feel gentle, welcoming, and human. I keep things clear and simple so you can focus on what matters, not the overwhelm. My style is warm, encouraging, and a little poetic—because softness helps us breathe. Let’s take this step together, one calm moment at a time.
I am a board‐certified clinical therapist with a strong foundation in narrative therapy, helping clients explore and reshape the stories that influence their lives. In recent years, I’ve supported children ages 5–17 as well as adults navigating a wide range of emotional experiences, including anxiety, depression, grief, and gender affirmation.

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.
