I'm a licensed psychotherapist with 34 years of experience. I do my best to meet you "where you are" and to offer compassionate presence as you progress through your personal process of self-discovery, self-identification, and evolution.

I'm honored to be part of your journey of transformation. I approach sessions in collaboration, as you learn to free yourself from judgment, criticism, and pain; to change negative perceptions that do not serve; and to experience more ease and peace in life.

Psychologist

Virtual & in-person • 21 mi away • West Covina, CA


Hello! I am Dr. Efrain Zepeda. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Social Worker. In the past 26 years of working as a mental health professional, one important lesson I have learned is that the most powerful therapeutic intervention is found in the interpersonal experience that occurs in the client-therapist relationship. Together we can analyze the past to co-create a new meaning to achieve healing. I strongly believe that therapy is not about labeling or judging, but rather about personal discovery.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Los Angeles

Finding the right therapist in Los Angeles starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or a life transition — or whether you're looking for more general mental health care. From there, look for a licensed provider (such as an LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, or psychologist) who has experience with your specific needs.

With thousands of therapists practicing across Los Angeles, narrowing your options can feel overwhelming. Reading a provider's bio is one of the best ways to understand their approach, specialties, and style before you commit. You may also want to consider logistics like session format (in-person or virtual), location within LA, and scheduling availability.

Therapy in Los Angeles can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance coverage is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to find a therapist who is both the right fit and covered by your plan.
