Getting to know Chrys Kinchen
Hey there, I'm Chrys.
Do you feel like you’re constantly going through the same cycles in your life and relationships? Are you under a heavy load of anxiety or depression that you just can’t seem to shake? Have you stayed stuck in the past for too long and need help letting go?
It’s not easy to sit down and share your story, and it can be hard enough just facing it. But the fact that you’re here and have a desire, no matter how faint that spark may be, is what matters most. I'm here, not as a "know it all" but as a partner and guide on your journey to a more balanced and centered life.
I’m a licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience working with individuals across all demographics and a wide range of issues. For me, therapy is a process that takes creativity to explore our complexities in a way that allows room for humor and joy in the midst of self-discovery. In fact, after earning my degree in Psychology from esteemed Spelman College, I took a detour and spent time in the music industry! I completed my graduate studies at the University of California, Los Angeles, earning a Master’s in Social Welfare, and all of this knowledge was greatly enhanced when I worked in one of the busiest clinics in Los Angeles for close to 10 years.
I’m so happy that you’re taking this step to rediscovering yourself. I know that peace of mind comes from a willingness to accept and navigate through the ebbs and flows of life with greater insight, patience, and love. Let's work together to make this happen!
What should a new client know about working with you?
I approach each therapy session with compassion and genuine interest. In our first session, we'll get to know one another, and you'll be able to share as much as you feel comfortable with so that I can get a sense of your history, current concerns and how much they're impacting you. As we work together, I offer a safe space for self-exploration and healing without judgment. I help you look at your situation at different angles, discover new insights and improve coping methods. Ultimately, we work together to help you reach a state of acceptance and peace, trust your inner voice and find balance that makes life easier and more enjoyable.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
