Meet Our Team

Isabel Barin, LMFT 
 
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, practicing since 2008 as an intern and fully licensed since 2014. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA and a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. 
 
With over 17 years of experience, I have witnessed the transformative changes that can occur through the therapeutic process. I believe that every individual possesses the inner capacity to grow and better themselves. I provide a safe, compassionate, and respectful space to help clients navigate their struggles, concerns, and hopes. 
 
I specialize in supporting adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, peer pressure, and life transitions. My integrative and client-centered approach combines techniques from Humanistic therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-oriented practices, allowing me to tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs.
