Monterey Park Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

David Strah

My clients are a diverse group of people ranging from age 14-70 and representing all genders, sexual orientations and many races.

Omer Harari

I offer support for those who feel like they're carrying the weight of the world-maybe it's a past trauma, anxiety, or strained relationships. You could be wrestling with vulnerability, exploring identity in LGBTQ+ spaces, a couple striving for deeper connection, a creative looking to unleash your potential, or an expat navigating the challenges of living abroad.

Alejandro Romero

Many of my clients come to me frustrated with their relationships, their career, or patterns they feel stuck in, and are feeling pretty powerless. The source of their pain is often contributed to being mistreated, not feeling fully seen, heard, and acknowledged by family, peers, society, and culture. My clients have a desire for personal growth, to find connection, and to build confidence.

Jeff Chan (Creely)

In West Hollywood, I help people who feel stuck, whether in anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions. My approach is warm, direct, and focused on depth of understanding that leads to lasting change. I have expertise in working with sexuality, gender identity, and discomfort with our body. Sometimes we feel like we don't fit with the world around us or even within ourselves. No matter where you’re starting, we’ll work together to help you move forward toward what you want.

Travis Bauer

I see many clients who feel stuck and unable to alter their life in a way that reflects their values, causing them to feel sad, on edge, or numb. They are suffering a great deal, and often their needs seem unclear. This can look like constant worrying, dreading the future, or being caught up in the past. I use a frank and kind style to empower clients to find meaning and hope as they navigate the complicated, often oppressive systems of our world.

Dr. Ali Dubin

Does it feel like you and your partner speak different languages? Are you questioning your gender/sexuality? Do you need support because someone in your family just came out as LGBTQ? Are you struggling with your kids? Your parents? Trying to balance it all? Are you going through perimenopause? Any of this can feel overwhelming! Let's work together to help you make sense out of it and feel better about life. Learn to communicate effectively with your partner and repair those ruptures.

Vanessa Setteducato

You're a people-pleaser, late-bloomer, self-explorer, or someone who values your inner life and wants to dive deeper. Adults who are creative, curious, and compassionate but struggle to apply those strengths to themselves consider me a good fit, as do those who crave relationships but find them to be more trouble than they're worth.

Online Therapy

Dr. Alexus Martinez

I strive to create a safe and affirming space for clients to engage and connect with their whole self. I am passionate about working with individuals, partners, young adults and the LGBTQIA+ community struggling with libido, erectile issues, self-esteem, trauma, spirituality, desire discrepancy, infidelity, intimacy, gender identity, and sexual orientation. My ideal clients are ready to fully show up and claim their pleasure.

Shavonne James

Many of my clients are over-functioning in their lives and have the underlying belief that their worth is tied to their usefulness and achievement. They often struggle with extreme guilt and approval-seeking so I focus on nurturing who they are as a person, outside the roles they perform. I work from a humanistic perspective and help my clients feel more confident in their desires and boundaries to gain a secure sense of self and build more fulfilling relationships.

Online Therapy

Damon Dodge

I often see driven professionals in high-pressure environments. Many of my clients are men, trying therapy for the first time or continuing work they've already started. Clients generally come to see me to work through stress, anxiety (especially social anxiety), depression, life transitions and trauma. I'm also trained and passionate about working with the broader LGBTQ+ population.

Shelly Crosby

You're exhausted, overwhelmed, and tired of feeling anxious and on edge all the time. You've thought about calling a therapist, but you're worried that no one can understand what you're feeling or what you've been though. You think you should be able to handle it all on your own, but things aren't getting better. Deep down, you know that it is time to ask for help. Even if you've felt this way for a very long time, it is possible to feel better... You don't have to do this alone.

Hayley Miller

I know what it's like to struggle with feeling safe in your body and not knowing why you feel that way. We together can separate the medical challenges from the mental health challenges. I can help teach you strategies to move through your trauma and eating disorder challenges to remain feeling safe in your body again. We can expand the uncomfortable feelings gently in session to help those feelings move out of your body and not return.

Dora Valencia

It takes great courage to take the first step in seeking support for past or current experiences. As a therapist, I use a collaborative approach to explore areas of concern and establish goals towards personal growth and change. In doing so, my goal is to provide a safe environment that is free of judgement when embarking on your journey of healing and self-improvement.

Carrie Covell

My clients are vibrant, intelligent individuals who sometimes face challenges regulating their emotions, controlling their impulses, maintaining their relationships, and being compassionate toward themselves. I also see people who struggle with overthinking, mood fluctuations, and low self-esteem. Often, folks reach out after losing a loved one (companion animals included), or in the midst of a conflict or transition.
