Michelle Le-Chau, Psy.D. is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in ACT and IFS in the Los Angeles area committed to helping clients build their mental, physical and emotional capacities for healing, wholeness, and well being.  By helping clients make contact with the present moment and curiously observe their experiences, their overall awareness expands and with this awareness comes flexible patterns of being and doing aligned with what matters. Being Mindfully Connected with compassionate presence will help you develop more effective skills to deal with habitual emotional reactions that hijack your ability to live a meaningful and peaceful existence. 

Dr. Le-Chau's philosophy is that all of your relationships in the world center around the most important relationship in your life, the one with Self.  The more mindfully connected you are with Self, the more connected you feel in the world.  By being present and bringing acceptance and compassion to your painful experiences, you will learn to reduce your suffering and focus your energies on living a life of value that you deserve.    

Dr. Le-Chau has been practicing as a licensed Clinical Psychologist since 2001 and her clinical practice incorporates Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness-Based treatments; which include Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).  Dr. Le-Chau has also completed Level One training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) that is a deeply compassionate and healing therapy approach that highlights focusing on your inner experience from a compassionate and curious Self, ultimately leading to a healthier and sustainable relationship with our self and others.  Dr. Le-Chau deeply values & actively commits to enhancing clinical skills rooted in science, research and compassionate practices to provide effective and high level of care.
