Do you believe you are created for relationship and continually asking yourself, "Why can't I make it happen? or Why is it such a struggle?" Your early connections or attachments will have an impact on how these questions may be answered. The goal is to journey together in a safe and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship developing awareness into your self perceptions and how you relate in the world. We will work to uncover the areas of your life where you are emotionally stuck, experiencing painful memories, trauma or unresolved feelings of terror, rage, panic, shame, grief and disgust.

I believe that no matter how stuck we feel in life the key to freedom and wellbeing always lies inside us. As an IFS-certified therapist for over 12 years, I have helped many clients find inner peace and fulfillment by recognizing tendencies and patterns that stand in their path to healing. A core IFS belief is that even our most dreaded habits and patterns are protective mechanisms that we have developed unconsciously to remain safe from more hurt and suffering. What makes IFS a powerful modality is that it is not based on pathology or diagnosis but on understanding that our internal system is organized around protection and safety

I have been in private practice since 1986, over 30 years. My specialty is helping individuals who suffer from the whole spectrum of anxiety disorders. Any therapist "worth their salt" is one who has been tested by fire and has lived through a transformative experience so that they can truly share their wisdom with others. When I speak about anxiety to a client, I've been there. I am an expert on anxiety, fear, phobias, and panic.

I believe therapy can benefit everyone who sincerely wishes to see a change in their life. Appropriate therapy can relieve feelings of distress, increase satisfaction in interpersonal relationships, create skills for managing anxiety, and help grow greater personal awareness and insight. Difficult changes have no specific design, but with help, you can learn from them, grow with them, and be better because of them.

Welcome to Aid in Healing! My name is Dr. Edden (pronounced like Aidan) Agonafer. I am a licensed clinical psychologist based in Long Beach, CA. I named my practice Aid in Healing because it aligns with my mission and understanding of healing. To provide more context, in my own healing journey and through the many years of counseling people, I've learned that healing that is done with the help of others is more powerful than healing that is done in isolation or alone. I have a decade long clinical experience working with individuals and their families and the various systems they interact with.

As a therapist who was born and raised in Hong Kong, I have had the opportunity to work with diverse clients of all backgrounds. I understand the unique challenges faced by children of immigrants, particularly those identifying as Asian American or emerging adults. Asian Americans often struggle with establishing a sense of belonging, internalized judgment of their thoughts, actions, and persistent feelings of inadequacy or shame. It can be challenging to exist between two or more different cultural norms, values, traditions, languages, familial obligations, social dynamics, and more.
