YOU DON’T HAVE TO SETTLE FOR FINE.
Welcome — I’m Dr. Josh Mirmelli.
If you’ve found your way here, something in your life may feel heavy, unclear, or in need of change. I want you to know you’re not alone. As a Licensed Psychologist based in Los Angeles, I work with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges — from the echoes of trauma and identity struggles to the quiet ache of self-doubt or disconnection.
My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply collaborative. I offer a space where you can lay down the weight you’ve been carrying and begin to reconnect with the vibrant, whole version of yourself — the one that’s always been there, even if it’s been overshadowed by pain, pressure, or the need to hide parts of who you are.
Through a holistic, client-centered lens, we’ll explore your story with curiosity and care. Whether you’re seeking relief, insight, or transformation, I’m here to walk beside you as you move toward healing, resilience, and a more authentic life.
Licensed in California (PSY31895).

OUR FEELINGS ARE MEANT TO BE FELT
Learning to experience and be present with all of our emotions is a core component of whole-living. Feelings signal something important to us. If we reflexively suppress our primary feelings, we may miss something meaningful that merits our attention. Our willingness to sit with our feelings—even the uncomfortable ones—enables new learning and enhances our capacity for more conscious living.
