MISCHIE PALUMBO PSYCHOTHERAPY
“HEALING BEGINS WITH UNDERSTANDING THAT THE PAIN WE CARRY IS NOT OURS ALONE.”
MAYA ANGELOU
WELCOME
I’m an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist in Pasadena and East LA, offering virtual and in-person sessions for adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, codependency, relationships, and life transitions.
You don’t have to be in crisis to need therapy - just trying to navigate life without a meltdown counts too. I get it; reaching out can feel weird, and it’s normal to sit with the idea for a minute before taking that first step. Someone once told me, the right timing isn’t a feeling, it’s a decision. You don’t have to wait to feel ‘ready’ to take the first step. You’re already here.
With the state of the world and the holidays coming up, it’s no wonder things can feel chaotic. Therapy can serve as a space to hit pause, sort through what’s going on, and figure out your next move - no judgment, no pressure. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, relatable, and sometimes a little funny, because we need that too.
Whether you’re curious, hesitant, or somewhere in between, reaching out doesn’t mean you’re locking yourself into anything, it’s just the first step in seeing what support could look like for you.
