Hi, thanks for visiting my page! I love and often find myself working with creatives (film, tv, music, production, writing) as well as those in tech and finance. My work with individuals and/or couples is centered around anxiety and ocd related issues, existential dread (yes it’s a for sure thing!), and relationship challenges. Sessions often look like the space to problem solve, get deep, and work through blocks/feeling stuck. If this sounds like something of interest feel free to reach out, I’d love to meet you!

It's 3AM and you're wide awake – sleepless with that aching emptiness inside. Your heart is pounding and you can feel it in your throat. You're longing for someone to tell you what to do about your broken heart.All you can think about is the fact that your loved one is gone. Completely overwhelmed with sadness and fear, wandering from room to vacant room, you wonder when your heartache will ever end. It’s been impossible to focus. Friends sometimes say things that make no sense: “Just give it time.” “Keep busy, you'll get through this..." One friend, post your break up, said: "You'll meet someone better." What?!!? Your heart aches.

Hello, I am Ilana! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of California (LMFT #116296). I work with individuals and families from a variety of backgrounds. I have experience in a multitude of settings, including schools, private practice, and community mental health. My therapeutic approach incorporates CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. I believe that therapy is collaborative and encourage my clients to grow in a safe, therapeutic environment.

Using a resiliency-focused approach, it doesn’t have to be an ordeal to heal. In fact, neuroscience has shown this is not the best way to work on oneself. Rather, focusing on regulating the nervous system using simple wellness skills and education about the brain and body connection can pave the way toward increased daily well-being as well as lay groundwork for resolving trauma. We can't always prevent stressors, and many of us have been through challenges or traumas in childhood that make it difficult to weather life's changes. Together, we will co-create the best course of treatment to help you live more fully in each moment.

I provide a safe space for children and adults to work through stress and psychological challenges with actionable tools, allowing them to find harmony and reconnect to a sense of ease and joy in their lives. With extensive training in and personal experience with the mind-body connection, I holistically foster healing and collaborate with clients to build safety and hope. I share empathy, curiosity, humor, and my light-hearted nature, which make sessions comfortable and engaging. I factor in the biology, psychology, and sociology surrounding my clients and their unique gifts and challenges and help them utilize to their strengths.

I have over 22 years' experience as a licensed psychotherapist. I conduct both long-term and short-term therapy. I help individuals and families learn about and develop hidden strengths and resources, which aids them in resolving problems. For instance, I have helped individuals (adults) to become more assertive, deal effectively with issues of anger and manage stressful situations and conflictual relationships. I use a variety of methods including psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, anger management techniques, assertion training, role-playing, family therapy and interactive guided imagery.

I believe every human has unique struggles and deserves therapy that is tailored to best help them. I work with individuals, couples, and families to treat a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, and addiction. Since I have a license in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have a perspective that allows me to help patients see their struggles in a way they may not have considered.

Clients that typically find it rewarding to work with me are people who find themselves tired of trying to "fit" themselves into small spaces that do not truly honor the complexity of who they are spiritually, culturally, or with their sexuality. They want to start living more fully and authentically, and want to free themselves of old relationships and limiting beliefs that keep them stuck in old cycles of habit, obligation, and resentment. They make small changes and build insight over time so they can live more fully, authentically, and intentionally as their embodied selves.

You have to feel better to get better. That may seem obvious, but it really isn't. When I begin to work with a new patient, I have two immediate goals: To get to know this person so we can determine if we're a good match; and if we are, to use my years of experience and skills to target current areas of damage and hurt. People come to therapy in pain — something or many things in their lives aren't working. Our job is to take a breath, appreciate your unique situation, understand when and how current problem(s) became unmanageable or toxic, and then find ways to feel better, more hopeful and clear about how to proceed back to life.
