About addiction therapy for people in Inglewood
Everyone listed on this page holds a licence to practise in California and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a licence is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in California regardless of how far away they are. Someone in Inglewood can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.
767 therapists match this page, all of whom name addiction among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.
What to compare
- Credential. LMFT, LCSW and LPCC are different training routes to the same licensed practice. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
- Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
- What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
- Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
- Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.
How online sessions work
Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.
Therapy in Inglewood
Inglewood has a population of about 107,762. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.
Common questions
Can I work with a therapist licensed in California if I live in Inglewood?
Yes. A California license lets a clinician offer online services to anyone in the state. If a profile says they are licensed in California and available to clients in Inglewood, you can contact them to confirm they accept new online clients where you live. Check each therapist’s profile for their stated services and formats.
What therapy approaches help with addiction and how should I compare them here?
Common approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, contingency management, and relapse prevention. Compare therapists by which methods they list, whether they treat co-occurring mental health conditions, and whether they mention family involvement or medication collaboration. Look for descriptions of experience with substances or behaviors you’re dealing with.
How do I choose between therapists who offer addiction support online?
Decide which factors are most important: clinical approach, experience with your specific substance or behavior, ability to address co-occurring issues, session formats, and communication style. Read several profiles, note any therapist who mentions addiction specialties, and reach out with questions about their experience and how they structure treatment to see who feels like the best fit.
