Introducing

John Garrison M.A., AMFT #150075

  • I'm an Associate at Teen Therapy Center in Woodland Hills. I initially was interested in working with kids and teens alike because of my own awkward experiences growing up.


  • My approach with this population is to help build and grow a relationship that becomes the driving vehicle of change in the lives of my clients.


  • I want to help give kids and teens alike the tools that they can carry with them outside of the therapy office into school, their homes, and the rest of their lives.


  • I really enjoy spending time outside on a hike or at the beach, hanging out with friends, searching for new music, or even playing video games. I love laughing so please feel free to tell me your favorite joke.


Send any kids and teens my way if they can benefit

from having the opportunity to talk with someone that can identify

with what is going on in their life.
