Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Melanie Lapeyrolerie, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, California. I offer in-person therapy in West Los Angeles and telehealth services to clients throughout the state. I work with a diverse range of individuals, from young adults to seniors aged 18 to 71. My specialties include treating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and alcohol and substance use disorders. To support my clients in enhancing their daily lives and overall well-being, I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Mindfulness, among others.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic theory, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These modalities help both me and the client establish a shared understanding of their reality, enabling us to work together effectively. Throughout the course of therapy, we focus on resolving issues and healing from trauma and emotional disturbances that affect relationships, work, and daily functioning.

What you can expect from me

I am committed to ensuring you feel better when you leave the session than when you arrive. I want to understand you and build your trust so you will be open to learning and developing new ways of thinking, behaving, and feeling. Expect to leave the session with greater knowledge, hope, and valuable tools to address any challenges you may face.
