About Therapy, Me, and My Location

About Therapy

What should I expect in therapy?

Therapy is a safe, judgment-free space, to explore your thoughts, feelings, and needs. Therapy can be a great place to find relief from distressing symptoms or feelings, challenges in relationships, stress related to work or school, issues related to parenting or marriage, or other areas of your life that you may be looking for support. 


I offer traditional in person sessions as well as convient, cost effecient online video sessions. We can discuss during your free initial phone consultation which option may be the best fit for you.   


Although change doesn't happen overnight, I have seen my clients gain insight, make adjustments, and learn tools that have truly changed their lives. Therapy takes some work, but change is possible. I'm looking forward to getting to know you and helping you reaching your goals!

Insurance and Fees

Session fees vary depending on the length and type of service. I offer a reduced rate to new parents and clients who request this based on individual need. Please call for more information on reduced rates and a calculation of your insurance through Mentaya with your adjusted rate.

In an effort to be an insurance-friendly practice, I have partnered with Mentaya to help my clients use their out-of-network benefits to save money on therapy. Mentaya is easy to use, submitting your claims for you, keeping things as simple as possible for you. They only charge a 5% fee per claim and have helped people get thousands of dollars back per year. It's completely optional, and as your therapist I do not benefit in any way from your participation. If you’re interested, use the tool below to see if you qualify for reimbursement for my services. 


If you prefer not to use Mentaya, I will provide you with a monthly superbill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement at your out-of-network rate. Please consult with your individual insurance provider for details regarding reimbursement rates. 

Session Length

Currently, I offer 50 and 90 minute therapy sessions as well as group and private workshops

Types of Sessions Available

I offer traditional in person sessions as well as convient online video sessions. We can discuss during your free initial phone consulatation which option may be the best fit for you.  

About Me

Sasha McPherson's Office
Therapist for new moms & baby
Therapist for pospartum depression & anxiety

As a mom of two, who also struggled with postpartum depression with my first daughter six years ago, I know how painful it can be to be doing your very best while simultaneously feeling like you’re failing or can barely recognize yourself. 


I love helping women and new moms struggling with the symptoms of anxiety, depression or ADHD, get their lives back. 


I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, providing therapy to individuals in Westlake Village, Ventura, and surrounding areas for over twelve years. Formerly, I practiced under my maiden name Sasha Sloniker but changed my last name to McPherson when I married in 2016. 


I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of California, Santa Barbara and a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from California Lutheran University. In addition to my private practice, I served adjunct faculty member at Pepperdine University’s Graduate School of Education and Psychology. 


In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and my two daughters at the beach, hiking, or riding bikes.
