Who We Work Best With

At Mellow, we specialize in working with high-functioning individuals who are ready for meaningful, lasting change. Many of our clients are modern professionals in West LA holding themselves to high standards while quietly managing a great deal beneath the surface.

They’re thoughtful, ambitious, and often deeply self-aware, yet still find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to cope in ways that actually feel sustainable.

We work best with clients who are open to showing up fully, even when it’s hard. Those who are willing to explore patterns, challenge old narratives, and make space for real change.

Therapy at Mellow is an investment in yourself, and we’re here for those who are ready to engage in that process with care, intention, and curiosity.

To build trust and momentum, we typically recommend weekly or bi-weekly sessions at the start. This consistency helps us establish a strong foundation, so we can equip you with the tools and insight to navigate what’s coming up. Over time, your needs may shift, and we’ll adjust together.

How We Got Here

Mellow Therapy was founded by Amanda Feinberg Burback in 2021, inspired by her own transformative experience in therapy. It was during some of life’s more difficult chapters that therapy first offered Amanda a sense of grounding, clarity, and connection. That experience sparked a lasting curiosity about how people heal, grow, and find meaning.

Mellow was born from that spark. We are a team of therapists who genuinely love this work and believe in showing up with care, curiosity, and integrity. Every clinician at Mellow is committed to doing their own work too, through self-reflection, continued learning, and an authentic connection to the people we support.

We work with thoughtful individuals who are ready to explore themselves more deeply and create meaningful, lasting change. At Mellow, therapy feels modern, warm, and grounded — a space where meaningful work can truly happen.
