I’m someone who truly listens and strives to meet each person exactly where they are. My style is adaptive, reflective, and flexible. I bring authenticity, compassion, and a good sense of humor into my work because I believe that laughter and honesty can be just as healing as insight. I was inspired to become a therapist by my own desire for the kind of support I would have wanted, and I aim to offer that same understanding and care to my clients. People often describe me as warm, genuine, and empowering. I am someone who helps them feel deeply heard and supported while encouraging growth in meaningful ways.

I am a trauma therapist with extensive experience helping individuals heal from painful experiences, navigate emotional challenges, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. Throughout my work in community mental health and private practice, I have had the privilege of supporting clients from diverse ages, cultures, and backgrounds.

I completed my graduate training at New York University (NYU) and bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to my work. My goal is to create a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood as we work together toward healing, growth, and meaningful change.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I provide a welcoming environment that is safe, nurturing, and judgment-free.

I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and adult individuals. I work collaboratively to explore the underlying negative patterns that cause you to feel stuck. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, therapy can be a powerful space to gain insight and feel less alone.

I am a firm believer, both personally and professionally, in the power of healing that comes through therapy. I am here to support and to guide you to better understand yourself, your wounds and your patterns in order for you to live an authentic, full life. I work with adults and seniors, drawing on years of experience as a social worker.

Hey there! I am a psychotherapist with a background in psychology and clinical social work. My experience stems from working with a wide variety of clients in many different treatment settings, such as schools, residential treatment facilities, supportive housing, and private practice. I work with adolescents and adults and provide treatment for mood, anxiety, personality, and trauma-related disorders.

Reaching out for help takes real courage, and I want that first step to feel manageable rather than daunting. I have spent 31 years working in mental health, primary care, and social services across Los Angeles, with people from just about every background this city holds: clients in behavioral health and integrated care settings, people coming out of homelessness, and families getting through genuinely hard seasons. Whatever brought you here, you will not have to explain yourself twice or justify why it matters. If you are ready to talk, I would be glad to meet you

I live in San Francisco and am a wife, mother and cat parent. I enjoy swimming, gardening and walks and hikes. I enjoy travel and can speak some French

My name is Mandisa Pittmon and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health field working with children, adults, families and couples and individuals.

My approach draws on psychoanalytic thinking, which revolves on one central idea: much of what we think and feel remains outside of our awareness. Sometimes we keep powerful feelings hidden so we can continue moving through the day, or we simply cannot find time to reflect on everything that is happening to us. In any case, keeping these potent experiences hidden may leave us feeling stiff, dreary, unfulfilled, or even numb and dull.
