My name is Dr. Nicole Hayes and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist in California. I look forward to meeting you! My practice is based on helping people thrive and live their best lives using evidence-based practices and treatments to inspire change and growth. I believe in meeting people where they are, and at the same time giving them the tiny push they need to reach their goals. I also believe in the importance of multicultural considerations and welcome everyone to my practice, no matter their background. I specialize in helping people live more present and successful lives and heal from eating disorders, depression, anxiety, body image concerns, self-esteem issues and much more. I also have extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults as they navigate transition periods in life. I love working with student athletes and "high performing youth". I am a Los Angeles native who also spent some of my childhood years in England. Outside of work I love to cook, travel, try new restaurants, hike, and read. You can also find me on the beach with my dog. Maybe one day she'll be a therapy dog!
