Serving La Mirada
How does therapy work for La Mirada residents, in person or by video?
We do not have an office in La Mirada itself, and we work with La Mirada clients every week. The Cerritos clinic is at 17215 Studebaker Rd., Suite 110, Cerritos, CA 90703, just off the 91 freeway at the LA County and Orange County border. From La Mirada, that is approximately 10 minutes by car.
If you prefer not to drive, telehealth is the default for most La Mirada clients. Sessions run by secure video through Anthem Medi-Cal, Blue Shield Promise Medi-Cal, Cigna, and Aetna statewide. LA Care and Molina are also accepted for La Mirada residents, who are in LA County.
Continuity of care
Do you keep the same therapist whether I join from La Mirada by video or visit Cerritos?
Large telehealth platforms assign whoever is available and cannot offer a face-to-face backup. At Eye Cue Mental Health, your clinician is yours whether you join from La Mirada by video or come in to the Cerritos office. The same therapist, the same treatment plan, and the same billing apply in both modalities.
La Mirada clients often start with telehealth therapy and come in for occasional in-person sessions when the drive is practical. Weekly sessions are available at the cadence your clinician determines is medically appropriate, not at whatever slot an algorithm opens up. Treatment length follows your medical necessity, with no session quota or forced step-down.
Coverage
What insurance is accepted for La Mirada clients?
Eye Cue Mental Health accepts Medi-Cal, Anthem Medi-Cal, Blue Shield Promise Medi-Cal, LA Care, Molina, Cigna, and Aetna. La Mirada is in LA County, so all seven plans apply. Coverage depends on your specific plan and medical necessity. We verify your benefits before your first session.
Anthem Medi-Cal, Blue Shield Promise Medi-Cal, Cigna, and Aetna cover telehealth across California. Whether your specific plan covers the therapy you need depends on your plan and medical necessity, and we verify before you start. Call us with your insurance card and we check together before you book.
What we treat
What mental health care do you provide for La Mirada clients?
The services our clinicians offer by video statewide and in person at the Cerritos office. If you do not see your concern, call us; intake is the best way to find out if we fit.
Individual therapy
Individual therapy is the practice's primary service. Adults work one-on-one with a clinician on anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD concerns, and life transitions. Treatment length follows medical necessity, not a session quota.
Couples counseling
Couples counseling helps partners address recurring conflict, communication breakdown, and emotional distance, with real tools to name unmet needs and respond to each other.
Family therapy
Family therapy supports parents, children, and multi-generational dynamics. Clinicians work with the relationships shaping the household, not just the individual in distress.
Trauma therapy and EMDR
Trauma therapy and EMDR therapy are available through our telehealth and Cerritos services. An EMDR-trained clinician on our team offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma and stress-related concerns. Most EMDR clinicians do not accept Medi-Cal; ours does.
Anxiety and depression therapy
Anxiety therapy and depression therapy are two of the most common reasons clients call us. Clinicians work through the patterns underneath persistent worry, low mood, and the sense that nothing quite gets resolved.
Teen and adolescent therapy
Teen therapy gives young people a setting to process what is difficult. Clinicians use a non-judgmental approach to help adolescents build emotional skills and express themselves.
Language access
Can I see a therapist in my language by video from La Mirada or in person at Cerritos?
One of the most common frustrations we hear is that clients cannot find a therapist who speaks Farsi, Tagalog, or Spanish. Our team delivers sessions in six languages beyond English: Spanish, Farsi, Tagalog, Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi, spoken across our team.
If language is a factor in your search, call us and we will match you with a clinician whose language fits. See our Medi-Cal therapy page for more on coverage.
In their words
What do clients say about Eye Cue Mental Health?
A note from someone we worked with at our Cerritos office, which serves La Mirada residents about 10 minutes away.
"This therapist has saved my life. Makes you feel great when you walk out of his office. Saqui will also give you tools to continue your treatment on your own time. Highly recommend him for people all ages."
