Hello! My name is Sharon Chan and I've have over 14 years of experience. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma. I also have experience working with the highly sensitive person.
I’m a licensed therapist with a Master’s in Counseling with an emphasis in Child and Family Therapy, and I’m certified in Perinatal Mental Health. I work with children, adolescents, and families, and I also support moms navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and the emotional challenges of early parenthood. I have experience helping with anxiety, emotional regulation, behavioral challenges, and school-related concerns, and I especially enjoy working with children and pre-teens using play and creative approaches.
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck or needing to focus? I enjoy partnering with my clients on their journeys to improved wellness. In our time together, we will celebrate your strengths and develop goals to maximize your wellness, together. While we can't change our past, we can work together to process our story’s strengths and struggles. We can talk through your current challenges and quiet the noise around you. We can explore the barriers that may get in the way of enjoying life to the fullest. We can identify ways to find joy again. I look forward to meeting with you to plan how to achieve your goals.
Dr. Margaret Chao is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience working in the field of psychology. She received her doctorate in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Health Psychology. She specializes in working with high achievement oriented professionals navigating important life transitions, career decisions, romantic relationships, friendships, and adjustment to change.
I have been a therapist for a little over for 4years, and have 20 plus years of experience in providing services in the mental health field. I received my MA from Brandman University and utilize CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and other modalities to help reduce symptoms and foster change in unhealthy behaviors.
I enjoy helping clients find their innate wisdom and to grow in positive ways through therapy. My background is in traditional and integrative psychology, energy healing and spiritual development. I am committed to helping clients find tools to address issues of chronic inner and outer pain, to find balance and meaning, and to improve their quality of life and relationships. I feel grateful and humbled to be part of my clients' process of discovery and change.
I believe every relationship holds the capacity to heal, grow, and transform. If you’ve found your way here, it probably means you’re ready for change. You don’t have to face it alone. My passion is helping couples break free from painful cycles, rebuild trust, and rediscover the closeness that first brought them together. Clients often tell me that what makes my work different is the balance of honesty and compassion I bring into the room. I won’t shy away from the hard truths, but I deliver them with care and a deep commitment to helping you thrive.
What patterns keep repeating in your life, even when part of you wants something different? I work with infants, children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, with a particular focus on experiences that are hard to put into words: the quiet accumulation of feeling disconnected or unseen, questions around adoption and family origins, infertility, the emotional weight of becoming a parent, and the grief that comes when life takes an unexpected shape. A lot of what brings people to therapy is not a single event. It builds. I trained at UCLA and bring both clinical depth and genuine warmth to this work.
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. As a culturally competent therapist, my mission is to empower individuals to harness their inner strength and create transformative change in their lives.
I specialize in helping Women at all stages of life. I have extensive experience working with clients on their relationships. I have additional clinical training in substance abuse, disordered eating, perinatal mood disorders and parenting issues.
I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) LCSW who helps individuals navigate anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. I will strive to meet my client's needs. Life tends to take us on various journeys. Not all clients are the same, and everyone has the right to their healing process. We will work as a team to overcome challenges.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Glendale
Finding the right therapist in Glendale starts with getting clear on the type of care you need. Consider whether you're looking for help with a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges — or broader support during a life transition. Therapists, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists each bring different training and credentials, so understanding the distinction can help you narrow your search. For example, a psychiatrist can prescribe medication, while a licensed therapist (such as an LMFT, LCSW, or LPCC) typically focuses on talk therapy.
Glendale is one of the most diverse cities in the greater Los Angeles area, and many providers in the area offer culturally sensitive care or speak multiple languages, including Armenian, Spanish, Korean, and Farsi. Whether you prefer in-person sessions in Glendale or virtual appointments from home, look for a provider whose specialty, approach, and availability match what you're looking for. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their style and help you decide if they're a good fit.
Therapy in the Los Angeles area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most practical ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Glendale who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
