Jesus Aceves, LCSW

He/Him

"At a young age, I saw my family members in need of therapy and other mental health services, but it was not always easy for them to find support, and when they did, they often felt as if they couldn’t relate to their provider. I knew that I wanted to be able to help those that may look like me, or have similar experiences to those in my family, to ensure that they felt heard and seen and to help break the stigma that mental health has amongst minorities. What helps keep me in this field is the growth I see from my clients. Seeing them achieve goals that they only dreamt of makes it all worthwhile."

Jesus is a bilingual (English, Spanish) Therapist at Two Chairs in Los Angeles.

He loves to see the change in clients as they move towards treatment to achieve their personal goals. He uses a combination of evidence-based practices to address the client as a whole to develop a safe environment where the client may flourish.
