Camille Tenerife
Founder, Therapist
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #114130
I’m truly passionate about being a therapist.
Through my experiences as a black therapist in Los Angeles, I found my passion in working with the BIPOC community. Helping my community through therapy motivates me to do this job every day. I started this practice because it was important for me to focus on supporting people who may have similar experiences as I do. I want to help others lighten the load of being a part of a marginalized community while not just recognizing, but truly celebrating the beauty and strength that comes with it.
I want to support you in understanding yourself better so that you can make informed decisions - decisions that come from authenticity rather than fear or worry. I can help you make the scary decisions so that you can get out of your way, and make the best out of your life.
In working with me, you can expect professionalism and quality care.

I’ve been there.
Having lived in a different country and moving to the U.S. at age 16, I felt out of control. I felt alone. I did my best to fit in by performing well at school, then at my job. Working hard and aiming high became my personality. I started to place a lot of my value on my performance and perfecting my perfectionism. Though achievement and productivity are rewarding, they were not long-lasting. I just chased the next best thing. Through my own therapeutic journey, I stepped away from my to-do list and stepped into accepting all parts of myself. I want the same for you because you deserve to feel better. You deserve relief.
