Hello, thank you for visiting my page. My name is Amy Allen, a licensed Marriage and Family therapist with over 15 years’ experience in the Mental Health Field. I currently work with a diverse group of clients seeking assistance for depression, anxiety, homelessness, grief, loss parenting, life skills, as well as those looking to improve their lives by learning skills to navigate this ever-changing world. Change is difficult and I know, we need motivation and encouragement to help reach our goals and improve relationships.
I graduated from California State University at Dominguez Hills with a Master of Arts in Behavioral Science and a concentration in Negotiation and Conflict Resolution and a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy and have been licensed since 2015.
My passion is helping people improve their lives which I feel could be attributed to much of my own life experience, education and being able to identify with clients. My goal is to assist in providing real life solutions to current barriers to living your best life I have been trained in and utilize CBT, DBT, Motivational interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy and EMDR.

Many people ask whether remote therapy really helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or managing life transitions, online therapy is frequently used and can be an effective option for those who prefer connecting remotely.
A major benefit is convenience and flexibility – clients can meet with therapists in the format that fits their needs and schedules, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety of options makes it easier to maintain continuity of care amid busy lives.
All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the freedom to switch therapists if they feel another clinician would be a better match. For many people, online therapy provides a practical way to access consistent support while balancing other responsibilities.
