Therapy will change your life
Many people struggle with emotional pain—often for years—before they consider therapy. Whether it’s low self-worth, chronic anxiety, intimacy issues, or an overall sense of disconnection, therapy provides a path toward meaningful, lasting change.
If you’re wondering how much therapy costs in California, or if you’re searching for a therapist cost near me, know that the price of therapy is more than a number—it’s an investment in your well-being and long-term mental health.
The right therapist determines your success
Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about connecting with a professional who truly understands you. Research shows that your sense of connection with your therapist is the single biggest predictor of successful outcomes. If you want to reduce anxiety, improve relationships, or gain emotional clarity, finding the right therapist is essential.
And that’s why we prioritize fit over everything else. Your healing depends on it.
This is why we are independent from insurance companies.
We believe strongly in your need to have direct care from a therapist you choose. The change you want in your life depends on it.

How we approach fees
Our fees are a reflection of market rates for the experience and specialization of our therapists. You will have a direct financial relationship with your therapist. They personally – not the insurance company – are invested in your progress and health.
Our fees range from $150 to $345 per hour.
Most of our therapists are around the $180-225 range, which is market rate for a private practice therapist in the Los Angeles area.
We are confident that we can help you achieve lasting emotional relief through therapy, and that the best chance at doing that is with finding you the right therapist.
Many people waste money on a therapist who isn’t a good fit for them.
They don’t make progress on the goals they came in for. That usually happens because there’s pressure, early on, to choose a therapist based not on the client’s direct relationship with the therapist, but on logistical factors or guilt. Let us help you find the right therapist for you so you can make needed change.
