I’m Shakeh Galstian, a licensed psychotherapist based in Los Angeles, dedicated to helping you move through anxiety, people pleasing, and self-doubt with more clarity and calm.
Practical, Solution-Focused Therapy for Gen-Z and Millennials
THERAPY FOR THE MODERN WOMAN SEEKING MORE CALM, CLARITY, AND CONFIDENCEIf anxiety, people pleasing, or chronic self-doubt have left you feeling overwhelmed or burnt out, therapy can give you the clarity and calm you’ve been craving.
At Reveal Psychotherapy, I provide a supportive space to pause, reset, and begin the inner work that will help you break free from limiting narratives and step into the life you’ve always envisioned.
Are You Sick of Feeling Anxious, Overwhelmed, or Burnt Out?
YOU DON’T HAVE TO KEEP CARRYING IT ALL ON YOUR OWNIf you find yourself second-guessing your decisions, over-giving in relationships, or stuck in cycles of constant worry and mental “what-ifs” - you’re in the right place.
I’m Shakeh Galstian, a licensed psychotherapist based in Los Angeles, offering online therapy to clients across California. I specialize in supporting young adults and college students break free from anxiety, improve self-esteem, and navigate life transitions with more clarity and self-trust.
I’m here to help you with:
-
Helping clients break free from constant worry, overanalyzing, and the mental “what-ifs” that keep them feeling stuck.
-
Supporting those who over-give in relationships, feel guilty when saying no, and struggle to prioritize their own needs.
-
Guiding clients to quiet their inner critic, rebuild self-trust, and develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves.
-
Working with young adults and professionals navigating big changes - college, career shifts, breakups - who want to feel more grounded and authentic.
My Approach
Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating. I bring a light-hearted, down-to-earth style that often includes humor, so that growth feels grounded and meaningful, without being overwhelming.
We’ll tailor our work to fit your needs, blending practical coping skills for immediate relief, with deeper insight to create lasting change.
I DRAW FROM EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES LIKE:-
CBT helps you notice the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By identifying unhelpful patterns - like negative self-talk or cycles of worry - we can work together to reframe them and practice healthier ways of responding. Over time, CBT gives you practical tools to manage anxiety, stress, and self-doubt in your daily life.
-
ACT focuses on learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you, build coping skills, and create space for more flexibility in how you approach challenges. The goal is to help you live in alignment with your values while reducing the weight of anxiety and perfectionism.
-
SFBT is a short-term, goal-oriented approach that emphasizes solutions rather than problems. We’ll focus on your strengths and what’s already working in your life, then build strategies to help you move forward. Even small changes can create meaningful progress and a sense of momentum.
-
IFS helps you understand the different ‘parts’ of yourself that may be pulling you in different directions. In IFS therapy, we work to identify and communicate with these parts, in order to bring more harmony and balance into your life. This process can help heal emotional wounds, ease inner conflict, and support you in discovering greater self-compassion and peace.
Let’s Reveal What is Within You
WHATEVER YOU'RE FACING RIGHT NOW, I'VE GOT YOUMany of my clients come to me feeling lost, second-guessing their decisions, or burnt out from the pressure to always be “on”. Whatever brings you here, therapy can help.
When worry and self-doubt take up all your energy, it’s easy to feel disconnected from the life you truly want. Therapy offers a space to slow down and process your experiences, so you can reconnect with yourself and your goals on a deeper level.
Through therapy, we’ll look at the thoughts, patterns, and beliefs that shape your world and gently challenge those that are keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll create space for new perspectives so you can start taking small, meaningful steps towards your favorite self.
IMAGINE FEELING...LIGHT AND GROUNDEDRelease old stories and find a sense of peace within.
CONNECTED AND WHOLEExperience the freedom of feeling enough as you are.
RESILIENT AND EMPOWEREDFeel equipped to handle life’s challenges with confidence.
What to Expect
SUPPORT THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU AREOur work will always begin with what feels most urgent to you - whether it’s anxiety, self-doubt, relationship issues, or burnout. Together, we’ll establish stability through practical tools, before diving deeper into the patterns that are holding you back.
From there, we’ll identify your goals and develop strategies that leave you feeling increasingly confident and capable as you move forward. We’ll set a comfortable pace for your progress while I gently guide you toward focusing your energy on solutions instead of problems.

FAQS

Online therapy offers the same level of care and connection as in-person sessions, with the convenience of meeting from wherever you are in California. I use a secure, HIPAA-compliant video conferencing platform to protect your privacy.

Yes - through Headway, I am able to accept Aetna, Anthem PPO, United Healthcare, and Optum plans in California. If you have a different insurance provider, we can explore using your out-of-network benefits.

Your first session is really about getting to know you. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what challenges you’ve been facing, and what you’d like to get out of our work together. There’s no pressure to share everything at once - I’ll guide the conversation at a pace that feels comfortable for you. You’ll also have the chance to ask me questions about the process so you feel informed and supported. By the end of the session, we’ll have a clearer sense of your goals and a plan for moving forward together.

Everyone’s journey is unique. Some clients see meaningful progress in as few as 6–12 sessions, while others choose to continue longer for deeper growth and lasting change.
