Hi, I’m Rachael Katz, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in West Los Angeles. I specialize in working with children, teens, families, and individuals who are navigating life’s challenges and looking for deeper understanding, connection, and healing. Whether you're a parent concerned about your child’s emotional world, a teen facing stress or identity questions, or an adult seeking clarity and change, I’m here to support you.

For over a decade, I’ve had the privilege of supporting kids and parents across a range of ages and settings, from preschool through high school, in environments including school-based mental health programs, intensive outpatient care, community clinics, and private practice. My approach is rooted in psychoanalytic theory, with a strong emphasis on attachment, play, and developmental understanding. I offer a compassionate and thoughtful space where feelings can be explored, relationships understood, and new paths forged.

It’s not always easy to ask for help, but therapy can be a meaningful step toward changes you’re seeking. I’d love to learn more about you and how I can support you or your family.

Whether your goals are centered around personal growth,
resolving family conflicts,
or addressing your child’s emotional needs,
my commitment is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where meaningful change can occur.
