Channy Streets, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Channy!

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. My approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and recognizing the innate resilience within every individual.

My focus

Together, we will create a safe, judgment-free space to explore your experiences, unpack negative patterns, and identify actionable tools that help you move forward with confidence. Whether you are dealing with overwhelming stress, major life transitions, or simply trying to understand yourself better.

My approach

A practical tool, CBT, to help you notice and gently reshape those unhelpful thought patterns that keep you feeling stuck. My approach is highly collaborative, t's all about giving you tangible, everyday tools so you can feel more in control of your mind and life. Depending on what you need, we might also bring in mindfulness or gentle technique.

My communication style

An open, easy communication is a priority, so you always feel completely safe and unjudged. When we're together, my focus is entirely on truly listening to you, giving you the space to process your story with an empathetic partner by your side. And whenever we're navigating something heavy or difficult, you can count on me to be a calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

I’ve been fascinated by how resilient people can be, which is really what drew me to therapy. I truly believe that everyone has the capacity to heal and grow, no matter what they've been through. For me, the most rewarding part of this work is helping people discover that inner strength so they can create lasting, meaningful change in their lives.

My goals for you

I view therapy as a true partnership. Together, we’ll map out goals that actually matter to you. As you learn more about yourself along the way, we'll gently adapt our plan so it always feels meaningful, supportive, and aligned with exactly where you want to be.

Our first session

I'm a therapist, and my goal is to create a safe, steady space where you can just be yourself. In our first session, we'll simply focus on getting to know each other and chatting about what brings you in. It is completely normal to feel a bit nervous—therapy is something we build together, and we will always move entirely at your pace.
