We are a pair of psychotherapists located in the greater Los Angeles, CA area who specialize in trauma focused therapy that integrates the mind-body connection. As one of our favorite therapists, Rollo May, wrote, "The true counselor seeks to understand people from the standpoint of appreciation...it is like inviting the traveler in from a snowy and chilly journey to sit for an hour before the fire." This is our approach. We aim to provide a warm, non-judgmental presence with the curiosity and tools to help you free yourself of what you think you "should" be to accept and love who you are. There is nothing more comforting than being truly seen by another person.
Trauma almost always makes it difficult to form trusting, healthy relationships. If someone has hurt you in the past, how can you trust again? How can you trust yourself enough to enter a relationship if you have chosen those who have hurt you? Do you notice similar negative patterns occurring in your relationships? It is our goal to help you build insight into those patterns and develop interpersonal skills to make sure your needs are met. Getting in touch with your intuition, trusting your gut with confidence, and cultivating deep and meaningful bonds are essential to a happy human experience. We aim to help you cultivate feelings of safety in vulnerability and connection through our counseling services.
No matter what brings you to therapy, curiosity and empathy are our priority, going at the pace most comfortable for you. We work in the here and now to stay mindful of the experience of both the mind and the body, bringing integrated healing to both. We promise to be there for you every step of your journey. Our goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.
