Individual Therapy for Adults and Adolescents

Virtual Therapy in California

Lovinder Johal

LMFT #143976

Have you reached a point where you’re tired of holding everything together while quietly feeling overwhelmed inside? Many individuals I work with are navigating anxiety, self-doubt, relationship stress, and major life transitions; often while balancing family or cultural expectations. You may look like you’re managing on the outside, but inside feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what you actually need. Therapy can be a place to slow down, set some of that weight down, and begin making sense of patterns that no longer serve you.

Therapeutic Modalities

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

    A structured therapy that helps you identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to improve mood and coping.

  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)

    A skills-based therapy that combines acceptance and change strategies to help regulate emotions, tolerate distress, and improve relationships.

  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

    A future oriented approach that focuses on building solutions rather than analyzing problems, emphasizing your strengths and desired outcomes.

  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

    A blend of mindfulness practices and cognitive techniques designed to reduce rumination and prevent depressive relapse.

  • Somatic Therapy

    A body oriented approach that uses awareness of physical sensations to process stress, trauma, and emotional experiences.

Hi, I’m Lovinder

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from California State University, Chico, and my Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from Point Loma Nazarene University. I’m passionate about making therapy accessible and meaningful for people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds, including those in the LGBTQ and South Asian communities. Outside of my work, I love live music, reading, and spending time with family and friends.

My Approach

My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and tailored to your unique needs. I believe in a collaborative process where you are the expert on your life. In our sessions, we will work together to build resilience and practical coping tools, ensuring you feel truly supported and heard as you navigate your personal path to healing.

Taking the first step toward therapy is a brave act of self-care. I am here to walk alongside you as you rediscover your strength and well-being. If you are ready to begin this journey and start feeling more like yourself again, I invite you to book a session through my Headway link today. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Earned MA in Clinical Counseling and Applied Psychology from Point Loma Nazarene University.
