Safety first

When to call 988 instead of booking with Amethyst

Therapy with Amethyst is outpatient care, and we do not run a 24-hour crisis line. Use 988 or the ER first if you are in crisis right now.

988

Thoughts of suicide or self-harm

Call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) any time.

ER

Immediate danger

Go to your nearest emergency room or call 911.

Eye Cue Mental Health is outpatient psychotherapy only. We do not provide crisis stabilization or emergency services.

About Amethyst

Narrative therapy for a new story

Amethyst Macaspac is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who believes in a powerful principle: "The person is not the problem. The problem is the problem." This narrative therapy approach separates you from your struggles, helping you see yourself clearly and empowering you to change the stories you tell about yourself.

Amethyst creates safe spaces for processing the unfamiliar and challenging. As a family therapist with expertise in relational dynamics, she guides clients on their journeys of self-growth, discovery, and understanding—one story at a time.

How we work

Amethyst's Therapeutic Approach

Separating you from your struggles

1

Creating Safety

Amethyst begins by creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can process your challenges and feel truly heard.

2

Rewriting Your Story

Through narrative therapy, she helps you externalize problems, separate yourself from struggle, and discover your agency in changing the story.

3

Growth & Discovery

The result is a clearer sense of self, renewed confidence, and the tools to write the next chapter of your life.

Telehealth across California

Online therapy with our team anywhere in California

Our clinicians see clients by video anywhere in California. You can join from home, work, or wherever you feel settled, and keep the same clinician for as long as treatment runs. When it helps, you can switch to in-person sessions at our Cerritos office without changing therapists. Ask about Amethyst's in-person and video availability on your intake call.

Statewide telehealth depends on your plan. Some Medi-Cal plans are limited to one county: L.A. Care, Carelon, and Health Net Medi-Cal to Los Angeles County, and CalOptima to Orange County. We verify your plan before your first session. See the full insurance list and county details.
