Thought Life
What you believe about yourself defines and shapes all of your relationships! - John Kane
Thoughts are the fuel of your soul. When you have negative beliefs about yourself, compulsive addictive cravings, fear filled thoughts, trauma memories, unforgiveness, or any other kind of obsessive or compulsive thoughts, they derail your relationships, your well being, and the trajectory of your life. At Growth and Change Counseling you will learn how to take control and transform your thought life into a life fulfilling world view that will enable you to experience fulfilling and healthy relationships, an authentic view of self, and greater satisfaction in your life.

John Mark Kane, LMFT #134414
Therapy is in my blood; it’s the way I can help and love people. I am a relationship therapist providing Marriage Counseling and Family Therapy to Los Angeles CA. I’ve witnessed human suffering all around me since I was young. These experiences have shaped my life, challenging me to explore the human experience and how to help people live healthy, fulfilled, and godly lives. My diverse interests in counseling, psychology, philosophy, wilderness therapy, theology, and experiential living contribute to my unique approach to parent coaching and relationship therapy in Los Angeles.
Relationships are one of the most important aspects of my life. I treasure my relationship with God, with my wife, and my kids. I’ve come to realize that challenges in relationships are at the center of most of our problems, whether it be anxiety, depression, family conflicts, or marriage conflicts. I am driven to help people have the marriage and family relationships they long for because I believe that we are relational beings that become whole through meaningful and satisfying relationships.
I believe that therapy is a safe space for people to be whoever they are right now, no matter how bad they feel about themselves or their lives. It is in this place of vulnerability that we can admit our struggles, face our true selves, and then grow to become all that we are meant to be!
I believe in the inherent value of human life. No matter what your struggle, background, belief system, or things you have done, you are inherently valuable, and with me, you will find a safe place to work on yourself or your family.
Experience
I have a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Western Seminary. I am available to provide anger management therapy, marriage counseling, relationships therapy, child and adolescent therapy, and parent coaching. Prior to obtaining my Master’s degree, I served as a Mental Health Coach for over 10 years. I also have the unique experience of obtaining an undergraduate degree in Recreation and specializing in Wilderness Therapy and Adventure Programming. I lived outside in the woods for two years, working with emotionally disturbed boys.
I am experienced working with individuals, couples, children, and families in Los Angeles. I am passionate about empowering healthy relationships between friends, lovers, and families. I take a practical and integrated approach to therapy, using skill-building interventions and techniques from science, psychology, and the Christian faith. I believe in addressing the needs of the whole person, and that requires blending different viewpoints and creating a unique approach to therapy for each individual, couple, family, or parent.
I spent my formative years living in countries in Southeast Asia, which gave me firsthand experience of living in different cultures and going through transitions and adjustments between cultures and nations. I have a personal understanding of the needs of expatriates, missionaries, and third culture kids (TCKs).
Growth and Change Counseling is a group practice providing relationship counseling, marriage counseling and parent coaching in Los Angeles.
People come to us because they hear that people experience real change and growth when they come to our practice. All of our practitioners implement what we call the foundational approach to relational and emotional well-being. All of our practitioners are trained in the same foundational approach so that regardless of which therapist you end up working with, you can be confident that you are getting the same standard of care for which we have become known.
I specialize in working with individuals, couples, parents, families, teenagers, pastors and their families, cross-cultural workers, cross cultural marriages and relationships, TCKs, and Christians, but I can work with you without any difficulty if you come from a different faith or belief system. The skills I use in relationship therapy have universal application, and you too can experience improvements and significant growth in your marriage, family relationships and life!
We help individuals, couples, parents, Pastors and their families, and people in cross-cultural settings work through their challenges so they can experience personal renewal and healing in their relationships (with God, family, friends, children, and other people).
We understand the unique stressors and hardships that people deal with in their relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and cross-cultural settings! Your well-being is my ultimate concern. Whether you’re an individual, a couple, or a family looking for help – our marriage therapy and parent coaching and individual therapy sessions are designed to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and understanding environment for you to deal with whatever is on your mind and heart.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs….1 Cor 13:4-6
I am hardwired as a therapist through training and life experience. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist serving Los Angeles because I know that even the most difficult relationships can be put back together. I know because, among other reasons, I’ve been through it. I’ve been married, divorced, widowed. I have 4 wonderful children and 7 grandchildren. In the midst of life’s suffering, I discovered joy. In the midst of relational pain, I’ve seen its beauty. But the reason I am able to come alongside you and support your growth is that in the process I developed relational intelligence. At Growth and Change Counseling, we have a foundational process that we take couples, individuals, addicts, and parents through. This process is tailored to the situation that you are dealing with and helps you develop the relational intelligence to put your relationships and mental health back together.
Whether you experience anxiety, depression, or conflict in your marital or parent-child relationships; I can help you! I’m here to help in your journey of healing and restoration! Therapy can be that safe place you’ve been looking for in which you can openly unload your heart and experience non-judgmental support and genuine connection. Together we can explore where you currently are, what you would like your future to look like, and how we can work together to help you get there.
I am South African and bilingual in Afrikaans. My educational background includes a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University near LA. I know it is important for you to find a therapist in Los Angeles you can connect and work well with. Let’s talk, contact us, the first step is a conversation.
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. CS Lewis
Jamula Taylor LMFT #129183
I am Jamula (Jamalah) Taylor; a woman, a mother, and a relationships therapist. I became a therapist serving Los Angeles to help people who look like me to be okay with being vulnerable and to support their healing. I want you to know that your past doesn’t define your present or your future. It was Vivekananda who wrote, “whatever we are now, is the result of our acts and thoughts of the past; and whatever we shall be in the future, will be the result of what we think and do now.”
I am a member of Growth and Change Counseling serving Los Angeles. We understand that our mental health conditions are related to the breakdown in our relationships and that we can’t simply make depression, anxiety, or other problems go away by simply treating the symptoms. We have to get down to the roots of the problems in order to help people effectively heal. This means that “sometimes the best thing may be the hardest thing for you to do.” But it is in our discomfort that we find the strength for the greatest growth and change in our lives!
I am here to walk alongside you on your journey of healing. At Growth and Change LA, we have a foundational approach we take all of our clients through, regardless of which therapist you work with. It is this foundation that gives us our reputation that people experience real help real quick. There is no problem I am not willing and able to face with you. Have the courage to take the next step; remember, courage is not the absence of fear but taking action in spite of our fear. Your Therapist in Los Angeles is just a phone call away. Call me, it starts with a conversation!
Arione Capolupo, LMFT #39729
Have you thought “I don’t fit in” or “nobody cares what I think or listens to me!”or “Why do I stress out all the time?” I’ve been there too. Its a struggle in the very core of your belief system and with help you can heal. It doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, or what you believe, I can come alongside you and help you on your healing journey, not just because I know how to, but because I have also experienced the healing myself.
You matter in life because you are human and precious. I want to help you experience wholeness so that you can be satisfied in your life and confidant to face any challenge and grow through it.
Therapy is in my blood. Its something I have pursued with passion since I was a child. I take a very hands on and eclectic approach (i.e.,integrating from multiple theories and strategies to personalize to your needs). I provide you with relational homework and skills to integrate into your life between sessions, this is where you will take what is learned in session and flesh it out in daily life. In this process you will learn how to shape you destiny instead of being defined by your past.
I am a member of Growth and Change Counseling LA. I integrate the Growth and Change foundational approach into our therapy sessions, its what gives us our reputation for meaningful results quickly. It allows us to establish a standard of care so that you can know that regardless of which relationship therapist you work with at Growth and Change Counseling, you are getting the same foundation that has given us our reputation for producing real change quickly and effectively!
People in Los Angeles come to us for many reasons, but they stay because they like our methods and get results. We don’t believe in endless therapy. Our goal is to get you in and out as quickly as reasonably can be done and do it in a way that hopefully you will never need to come back!
My professional Experience:
I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology from San Diego State and a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Chapman University. I am a specialist with years of experience working with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and I have specialized training in Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA). I also specialize in working with Individuals around issues such as Anxiety, Depression and Anger Management therapy. I work with couples and parents dealing with child behavioral concerns. At Growth and Change Counseling LA, we treat everything and we want you to know that we have the knowledge and experience to support you.
April Silva, LMFT #142789
I am a relationship therapist aggressively committed to helping you uncover the underlying causes of anxiety and depression and support you in building the skills to increase communication, connection, and find satisfaction in your relationships.
In this process I will help you to uncover and address the underlying anger that feeds the anxiety and depression. In cases of PTSD, I will help you uncover the underlying defenses that protected you through a traumatic experience but now are interfering with your ability to move forward in intimacy.
My approach
I am an experienced therapist in Los Angeles in trauma care, including complex trauma and dissociation, and love helping clients heal. I treat the whole person utilizing aspects of many theories and strategies. Some of the theories and strategies I like to use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment theory, somatic therapy, and EMDR.Through this process together, you will learn tools and principles of life that will empower you with increased relational intelligence that will give you confidence and cultivate a renewed sense of purpose and well-being. There is no mountain too high to be climbed, no obstacle too difficult to face. There is hope and whatever your situation here in LA,I would be honored to face it with you.
Stephanie Hayes, AMFT #145271
Hi, I’m Stephanie Hayes, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in Los Angeles, CA.
In life, we sometimes find ourselves in dark and lonely tunnels, with no end in sight. I want you to know that there is hope, and I am here to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing. As a nurse who came to the therapy field through an unconventional path, I believe that some of the most profound healing experiences are not physical but psychological and relational. While physical healing relates to our body’s functioning, psychological and relational healing touches the very core of our identity, satisfaction, and fulfillment in life. Even if my body is broken, my spirit can still thrive with satisfaction and fulfillment. But if my spirit is broken, my physical health becomes far less significant. Charles Stanley once said, “It is not the trials in your life that develop or destroy you, but rather your response to those hardships.”
If your spirit is wounded, or you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, or relational challenges, I would love to come alongside you and offer support. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in Los Angeles CA, I believe that even the most broken relationships can be restored. If you are in a dark place, wondering if there is hope, wondering if redemption is possible—it is. Together, we can start to piece things back together.
Call me today so we can discuss your needs. I work with individuals, couples, and families, including parents and children. I treat anxiety, depression, addiction, sex addiction, infidelity, anger management therapy, ADHD, ODD, Asperger’s, ASD, communication issues, and grief. I am supervised by John Mark Kane, LMFT 134414.

Understanding Christian Integrative Counseling
Therapists specializing in Christian integrative counseling offer a unique approach that blends faith-based principles with evidence-based therapeutic practices. They aim to provide a holistic framework that addresses the psychological and spiritual needs of individuals and couples.
Key Components of the Approach
Christian Worldview: Therapy sessions are grounded in Christian teachings, encouraging clients to explore their challenges through a spiritual lens. This can include using scripture and prayer as part of the therapeutic process.
Evidence-Based Practices: Alongside spiritual guidance, therapists incorporate proven psychological techniques to help clients deal with issues like anxiety, stress, and negative thoughts. This might include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or mindfulness strategies.
Personalized Support: Each session is tailored to the client’s unique circumstances, ensuring that therapy is both practical and relevant. The focus is on helping individuals and couples overcome obstacles in their life and relationships.
Collaborative Process: Therapists work hand-in-hand with clients, fostering an interactive environment where goals are set collaboratively. This partnership aims to restore confidence and hope, enabling a renewed sense of control over one’s life.
Guidance Through Life’s Challenges: Acknowledging that life can present unexpected difficulties, these therapists offer support and guidance, encouraging clients not to face these challenges alone but rather with informed assistance.
By integrating faith with evidence-based techniques, Christian integrative counseling seeks to support personal growth and healing in the intellectual, spiritual, relational (social) and emotional domains.
How to Identify an Effective Christian Therapist
Finding a therapist that aligns with your faith can be a vital part of your healing journey. Here’s a guide to recognizing an effective Christian therapist:
Professional Credentials: Ensure they are licensed mental health professionals. They should hold a master’s or doctoral degree in fields like psychology, counseling, social work, or similar disciplines.
Faith Integration: An effective Christian therapist should seamlessly integrate Christian principles and values congruent with relational intelligence into their therapeutic approach. This is what we do at Growth and Change Counseling. We understand the role these principles play in the health of your life and relationships and can address struggles by bringing integration between your faith and relationships in daily life.
Training and Expertise: Look for therapists who have received comprehensive training in various treatment modalities. At Growth and Change Counseling, all of our therapists are trained to utilize our foundational approach that integrates the principles of relational intelligence. This is what gives us our reputation for results in repairing some of the most broken marriages and relationships. This ensures they are equipped to provide a standard of care that you can trust.
Respect for Spirituality: They should be able to help you see the intersection of your faith with the relational intelligence that you are learning in sessions, offering a cohesive and compassionate understanding of how faith and relational intelligence integrate to bring satisfaction and fulfillment in life.
Reputation and Reviews: Consider feedback from previous clients, which can offer insight into the effectiveness of their methods and their ability to incorporate faith-based principles effectively. We are blessed at Growth and Change Counseling to have clients who have graciously reviewed us. These reviews provide insight to prospective clients who are trying to figure out what kind of therapy would be helpful for them.
Strong Communication Skills: A good therapist will foster open and empathetic dialogue, facilitating an environment where you feel comfortable discussing both personal and spiritual concerns.
At Growth and Change Counseling, you can find a Christian therapist who not only meets professional standards but is also equipped to harness the power of your Christian faith and integrate it with healthy relationship principles for your well being and recovery.
A Christian therapist often blends faith-based principles with therapeutic techniques to support emotional healing. This approach can help clients see their challenges through the lens of their religious beliefs, making the therapy more relevant and meaningful.
When a therapist shares or understands the client’s faith tradition, it can create a comfortable environment for discussing sensitive topics. This shared background can foster trust and openness, which are crucial for effective therapy.
A therapist’s insight into a client’s unique history and cultural background can significantly enhance the therapeutic process. This understanding allows the therapist to tailor their approach, making therapy more personalized and effective for the individual.
How Are Therapists with a Christian Background Listed in Directories?
Therapists who wish to emphasize their Christian background typically make this information available in their professional directory profiles. These platforms often allow counselors to highlight their religious affiliations or their experience working with Christian clients.
However, not every therapist chooses to disclose this. In some cases, therapists may prefer to focus on their broader qualifications rather than specific religious affiliations. This choice can affect how they appear in search results within these directories.
To assist seekers in finding the right fit, directories may feature filters or categories showcasing therapists experienced in addressing the needs of Christian clients. These tools help individuals locate therapists who align with their spiritual values, regardless of the therapists’ own religious backgrounds.
At Growth and Change Counseling, all of our therapists are trained and equipped to provide Christian Counseling to those who desire it. Take a look at our therapist bios on the website and let us know if you have a preference to work with a specific provider!
