Compassionate Therapy Near Studio City, CA - Support for Children, Teens, and Families
Julie Klamon, LMFT - Providing Therapy Services Near Studio City, CA
Whether you are raising children, managing a demanding career, or working through a personal transition, finding the right therapist can make all the difference.
My name is Julie Klamon, and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children, teens, adults, and families. My office is in Agoura Hills, about 35 minutes from Studio City via the 101 West. I understand that families often have complex lives, parents managing unpredictable work schedules, children navigating demanding academic environments, and teenagers growing up with a heightened awareness of social media presence.
My approach is individualized and evidence-based, combining cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed methods, and mindfulness practices. Many families also find secure virtual sessions convenient, and I offer telehealth to anyone in California.
I provide a space where children and teenagers can simply be themselves, not performing, not managing impressions, and begin to understand and work through what they are actually experiencing. For busy parents, virtual sessions also make it easier to keep care consistent week to week.
If you are looking for a therapist near Studio City and would like to find out whether my approach is the right fit, please schedule a free phone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
Comprehensive Therapy Services for Studio City Residents
Anxiety Treatment Near Studio City, CA
Children attending academically rigorous local schools are in environments where the expectations are high and the peer competition is real. For some students, this produces genuine achievement; for others, it produces anxiety that begins to undermine the very performance it was meant to support. Anxiety in children and teens can also be amplified by social media dynamics and image-consciousness. I provide structured, evidence-based anxiety treatment that addresses both the academic and social dimensions of anxiety, helping clients break cycles of avoidance and develop confidence that does not depend on constant performance.
I invite you to explore my Anxiety Therapy Services page to learn more about how I can support you.
Depression Therapy
Depression can take many forms. Adults may experience cycles of professional uncertainty that feed a persistent sense of worthlessness or disconnection, the gap between public-facing confidence and private experience. Teenagers working through academic and social pressures can develop a depression that hides behind performance or social engagement until it cannot be hidden anymore. I work with children, teens, and adults to identify and address the specific contributors to their depression, build behavioral momentum, and develop the insight and skills to sustain recovery beyond our sessions together.

Sexual Abuse Therapy
Survivors of sexual abuse need a therapist who combines deep clinical expertise with a genuine commitment to their safety and pace. I bring extensive specialized training in sexual trauma care, drawing on my work with the UCLA Rape Treatment Center, and I provide a confidential, supportive environment for survivors of all ages. My Agoura Hills office offers a discreet, professional setting where this work can take place entirely privately, removed from the immediate community and its networks.
If you or someone in your family needs this support, please know that help is available. Learn more at Sexual Abuse Therapy.

Trauma Therapy
Trauma is not always dramatic in its origins, but its effects are always real. For children and teenagers, trauma can stem from family disruption, difficult peer experiences, exposure to the adult world earlier than is developmentally appropriate, or the subtler forms of harm that can accompany high-pressure environments. For adults, unresolved trauma from earlier life stages can continue to shape relationships, professional performance, and self-perception in ways that are only understood when they are directly examined. I use evidence-based trauma-informed approaches to help clients at every age process what happened, reduce symptoms, and rebuild a sense of safety and stability.

Therapy for All Ages
Many children are growing up in environments where academic preparation, social performance, and even digital presence carry weight from a young age. A competitive culture can create pressure that children internalize well before they have the emotional vocabulary to describe it. I work with children ages eight through ten using play therapy and developmentally appropriate cognitive approaches, providing a space where they can process what they are carrying in a way that feels safe, not performative. My goal is emotional literacy and resilience, the capacity to navigate difficulty, not just avoid it.

Teenagers are navigating rigorous academic environments while simultaneously managing the social pressures of adolescence. Social media comparison and the sense that one's image is always being evaluated can create a particular kind of anxiety and self-consciousness that is hard to address without professional support. I work with teenagers in a space that is genuinely separate from all of that, where they can be direct about their experience and receive real, practical help, rather than another environment that asks them to perform.

Demanding work schedules can create periods of high stress followed by availability, affecting attachment and routine in ways that children respond to strongly. Parents bring their own concerns about privacy and discretion when seeking help. I offer parenting support that takes these realities seriously, helping parents develop consistent strategies for connection, communication, and emotional regulation, both for themselves and for their children. For co-parenting situations, I provide specialized support to help both parties prioritize their children's wellbeing even when their own relationship is strained.

Adults come to therapy for many reasons, among them the particular stress of a career in which external validation is central, professional uncertainty is constant, and the gap between public presentation and private experience can widen over time in ways that are difficult to acknowledge. I work with adults on anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, and the effects of past trauma, using an approach that is practical, evidence-based, and genuinely confidential. Many adults find that virtual sessions are the most convenient option, I offer secure telehealth to anyone in California.
