Yes! All of our providers offer 30 minute free consultation zoom meetings to meet with clients to see if you are a good fit for each other. We prefer zoom calls rather than phone calls so we can virtually meet face to face! In this meeting, you and your potential provider will get to know each other a bit, learn your therapy history, your current goals for therapy and anything else you would like to share with them! This is also a time for you to ask your provider any questions. If your provider feels like they may not be the right fit for you, they will provide you some referrals!

If you are feeling unsure who would be the best fit, feel free to reach out to Alexis Jarrell, LMFT, founder of Whole Human Wellness and Supervisor to Associate therapists and schedule a consultation call to discuss your needs and be matched with a provider.

Feel free to take a look at each provider’s profile and see who specializes in the topics you are wanting to explore in therapy. This is the reason for the complementary consult call too so you can feel out a provider and see if they are a match for you. If you have an idea of who you would like to meet with for a consultation zoom, you can book directly through the provider’s calendly link:

To become a licensed clinician in the state of California, therapists must graduate from their masters’ program and then accumulate 3,000 hours of clinical and non clinical work under a licensed clinician’s supervision and then pass the state licensing exam! All of my associates have hours already accumulated and are amazing therapists that I trust immensely to be working under my license and in my practice.

Associates do share client information with only me, their supervisor, in private supervision, to make sure that clients are receiving the best possible care, so clients do sign additional consents to allow associates to share information with their supervisor. This is a great opportunity for clients to receive amazing collaborative care for a lower fee and for clinicians to gain experience.

Our practice is not paneled with insurance, which means all clients must pay their provider out of pocket at the time of their session. Providers can provide clients superbills to submit to their insurance for potential reimbursement, however that is not guaranteed and it is up to the client to check with their insurance regarding out of networking reimbursement.

Of course, therapeutic rapport and client confidentiality is extremely important. I will not share details of my work with minors with their parents, however I am very open with clients and parents that because I work from a family systems and attachment lens, I don’t believe therapy can be effective unless the work continues at home. So, with minor clients I do send general updates of themes and skills we are working on to parents. Of course if there are any safety issues or disclosures that require me to breach confidentiality due to being a mandated reporter, I will do so.

I have found that often teens (and adults alike!) are as likely to open up and be vulnerable online, as that is what we have become accustomed to, especially in the last few years. We strive to make my sessions with teens engaging, creative and collaborative and tailor it to the maturity level of the teen and what their interests are. We have not found that virtual therapy is a hindrance to the therapeutic work at all. Especially with how busy kids are these days, it is so nice for teens and families to not worry about another activity to commute to as well!

Yes! Due to increased recent demand for in person session availability, we now have ability to see clients in offices in Redondo Beach, Santa Monica and Beverly Hills.
