Depression Therapy in Malibu

Why Malibu families choose Lifespan for depression therapy and treatment

Lifespan: Center for Family Psychological Services is the Mental Health Westlake Village practice trusted by Malibu families for evidence-based, insurance-friendly psychological care. Malibu clients turn to Lifespan for discreet adult therapy, family psychological evaluations, and trauma and anxiety treatment by senior clinicians.

Our clinical team includes our licensed clinicians working together across depression therapy and treatment, psychological testing, family therapy, and academic accommodation evaluations. Because we are a multi-clinician practice, we can match each Malibu client with the psychologist whose specialty, age range, and approach best fits the presenting concern, often within days of the first call.

What depression therapy and treatment looks like at Lifespan

• Intake call. A 15-minute conversation to understand your needs and confirm we are the right fit.
• First session. A clinical interview to map your history, current symptoms, and goals.
• Ongoing care. Evidence-based protocols tailored to you, with regular progress check-ins.
• Coordination. When appropriate, your therapist coordinates with your physician, psychiatrist, or school.

Insurance and access for Malibu residents

Lifespan accepts most major insurance plans including Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, Optum, UnitedHealthcare, Magellan, and MHN. Malibu residents in both Ventura and Los Angeles counties are eligible. We also work with HSA and FSA accounts, and we provide superbills for out-of-network clients seeking partial reimbursement.

Mental Health Westlake Village is what we do. Malibu is part of our home community. We see Malibu clients every week, and we know the local schools, pediatricians, and psychiatrists that round out a complete care plan.
