Explore Online Therapy in California
Online therapy is a real, grounded way to connect. When done well, virtual therapy holds just as much depth, presence, and nuance as in-person sessions. At Expansive Therapy, we approach online care with intention, making space for emotion, embodiment, and authentic connection, even through a screen. Here, you get access, trust, and care that travels with you, from your car after a long shift to your living room sofa.

We don’t believe online therapy should feel like a watered-down version of “the real thing.” At Expansive Therapy, our virtual sessions are grounded in real relationship, care, and presence. These are the same values that guide our in-person work. Whether you're connecting from a shared apartment in Echo Park or logging on from your car during your lunch break in Studio City, online therapy offers something uniquely flexible and affirming.
Our Los Angeles therapists bring queer-affirming, trauma-informed care to wherever you are, literally. With our office based in the heart of Larchmont Village (606 N Larchmont Blvd, Suite 4B), we know the pulse of this city and the emotional texture that comes with living here. Let's meet you where you are, and honor how far you’ve come.
Meet Our LA Practice
No commute. No waiting rooms. No fluorescent lights or awkward elevator small talk. Just you, your therapist, and space that’s fully yours, even if it’s through a screen. Starting online therapy can feel surprisingly intimate: you’re showing up in your real environment, sometimes in pajamas, sometimes between work calls, sometimes on the edge of burnout.
In your first few sessions, we’ll focus on building trust and helping you land in the relationship. You set the pace. You bring what’s real. Sessions often weave together grounding practices, relational insights, and gentle challenges that help you move toward what feels more authentic. Whenever you're ready, we're here to adapt with you, even when you’re not sure what you need yet.

Why California Clients Choose Expansive for Online Therapy
Because they’re tired of surface-level care.
Because they’re done explaining their pronouns, their partnerships, or why family gatherings feel like landmines.
Because they want a therapist who understands how it feels to be both high-functioning and barely holding it together.
Our clients choose Expansive Therapy because we lead with presence, not performativity. We’re a queer-led practice with therapists who walk the walk. We offer real connection. Whether it’s your first time in therapy or your fifth attempt to find someone who gets it, we’re here for the long haul. Affirming, attuned, and always on your side, even over Zoom.
"The staff is outstanding! Really warm and welcoming. Very inclusive and positive vibes. Online option was the best over the last year. Great team and constantly impressed with how they approach situations."

We’re out-of-network providers, which means you can work with the therapist who’s right for you, even if we’re not in your insurance network. We partner with most PPO and POS plans, and we’ll handle claim submissions for you so you don’t have to chase reimbursements or speak fluent insurance.
Rates vary depending on the therapist and session type, and range from $75 to $250 for 45-minutes, and we’re intentional about keeping our fees more accessible than many private-pay therapy options in LA. If you’re not sure what your benefits cover, we’ll verify your coverage and walk you through next steps before you commit to anything.
Learn About Insurance
Our California-based therapists are licensed or pre-licensed under supervision, queer-affirming, and rooted in the realities of living and working in Los Angeles. While all sessions are held online, our practice is grounded in LA, emotionally and culturally.
Some clients join us between auditions in West Hollywood. Others sign in from Koreatown after a long shift, or settle into therapy from the hills of Highland Park with their morning coffee. However you arrive, you’re fully welcome here.
