Therapist

Life is ever-evolving, and sometimes we need a partner to help us navigate its changing tides. Together, we will focus on building your resilience and capacity for whatever comes next. Our work is practical and action-oriented; we'll identify tangible coping skills you can apply to your daily life, while working to shift negative self-talk into a more supportive mindset. I believe the best work happens in an environment of trust, which is why I always welcome feedback and invite a spirit of shared accountability in our sessions.

Suong Le

Suong Le

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello, I'm so glad you're here.

For the past 13 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adults who feel unsure of themselves—those who wake up with anxiety, struggle through depression, or find themselves questioning their worth and direction. These feelings of uncertainty can be isolating, but they also represent the beginning of important self-discovery. Recently, I completed my PsyD, which has enriched my ability to help clients understand the underlying root causes of their patterns and behaviors. My goal through therapy is to help you discover your inner strengths to overcome life's challenges and promote personal growth.

The journey to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line for me—I arrived here after walking many different paths in my life. For me, being a therapist isn’t about being an expert who sits above you. It’s about someone you can feel warm with, open with, and safe around.

Makando Mutanda

Makando Mutanda

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello, I’m Makando Mutanda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Los Angeles and the founder of Sela, an integrative therapy practice. I created Sela as a space for individuals and couples seeking care that attends to the mind, body, emotions, relationships, and lived experience. As a first-generation immigrant born in Kitwe, Zambia, I bring a personal understanding of how culture, identity, and belonging shape the way people move through the world. These experiences influence how I listen and how I approach therapy, with attention to context, nuance, and the many layers that inform a person’s internal process. I often work with people who feel emotionally overwhelmed or weighed down by ongoing responsibilities, relational dynamics, professional demands, or long-standing patterns that no longer feel supportive. I also support couples seeking to better understand one another, strengthen communication, and move through periods of change together.I have over six years of clinical experience and received my graduate training in Social Work and Public Health at the University of Southern California. My work has included community mental health settings, university counseling centers and PhD training programs. I support individuals and couples navigating relationships, identity exploration, life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and intimacy concerns.My approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic therapy, attachment-based work, and somatic practices. I work collaboratively with clients and believe that people carry insight and wisdom shaped through experience. My role is to walk alongside clients as they develop understanding, cultivate inner resources, and tend to their healing in ways that can continue beyond therapy and be integrated into daily life. Thank you for taking the time to explore how therapy at Sela might support you.

As a therapist I'm here for you. It seems brave to me make a decision to come to therapy. My part is to listen and without judgment or personal agenda and to be effective in your needs and wants. Of course, I also need to be aware of the legals and ethicals of therapy. I attended Sarah Lawrence College and Harvard University for my BA, and Phillips Graduate Institute for my MA.
