EMDR Therapists in Mid Wilshire, Los Angeles, CA

I believe that you have valid reasons to feel and act the way you do, even if those reasons are not yet obvious or known. I am particularly interested in the various relationships that impact your reality and the influence those relationships have on your daily experiences. These include, but are not limited to: the relationships you have with the other people in your life (your family, your boss, your friends, your partner, etc.); the relationship you may have to stress, anxiety, depression, oppression, and trauma; the relationship you have to food and your body; and most importantly, the relationship you have with yourself.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or caught in an endless loop of personal challenges? If so, you are not alone. Therapy is where you can heal from current stressors, past wounds, and negative thoughts or behavior patterns that unconsciously create recurring problems in life. As an affirmative clinician, I treat LGBTQ clients, ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, shame, self-criticism, and trauma disorders. My practice is rooted in helping people improve their self-worth, daily focus, motivation and executive function skills. I also support people navigating relationship and family conflict, grief/loss and career challenges/transitions.

It takes a tremendous amount of strength and courage to begin the therapy process. My goal is to work collaboratively with my clients to create a safe, non-judgmental and connected space that promotes exploration, insight, and new possibilities. Through our work together, we will strive to gain a deeper understanding and skills to help you reach your therapeutic goals. With support, encouragement and guidance we will build a relationship that will facilitate the meaningful changes you are seeking.

I believe therapy is a journey toward growth, personal fulfillment, and a deeper understanding of ourselves and those around us. The ultimate goal is to become effective problem solvers, more mindful, and to enrich our lives and the lives of those around us. I offer an integrative approach to psychotherapy to support clients through the process of self-reflection and navigating life's challenging moments.

Judy Wahl Talley LMFT 109568. My approach is mindfulness-based and trauma-informed. I work primarily with individuals and couples, ages teens to seniors. My clients have commonly experienced traumas of different sorts, either in childhood or adulthood. Clients can be experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, worthlessness, hopelessness, ADHD, dissociation, PTSD, conflict in relationships, sleep disturbances, or struggling with addictions. Many feel alienated from this society and even their own families. I utilize therapies known to help heal these struggles.

I help creative and driven individuals who are struggling with self-esteem, anxiety/burnout, trauma, and difficulty in relationships. If you desire to live more authentically and to be freed from the burden of not feeling "good enough," therapy can be a helpful and safe space to work on shifting out of patterns that keep you feeling stuck and overwhelmed. You won't be alone in the process as we will work collaboratively to help you discover a new path forward that leads to healing and growth.

My name is Fox and I am an inclusive, queer, 2slgbtqia+ affirming Therapist. I’m a loving incandescent BIPOC femme and my nature is deeply empathetic and passionately curious - and still... I will gently challenge you with questions that have kept you stuck. I have a deep passion for working with people on trauma, identity, intimacy, loss, communication, self-worth, shame, sex, life stress and gender discovery. I’m Certified in both Sex Therapy and CNM / ENM — and trauma informed. I work with all relationships: monogamy, opening up, open relationships, consensual non-monogamy, polyamory and I’m sex-positive, BDSM and kink allied.

For as long as you can remember, you’ve felt different. You learned early on that there were parts of your identity that you had to hide. So, you built a façade to protect yourself. You felt safer pretending you were just like everybody else. As you’ve gotten older, you’ve learned to accept these parts of your identity more, but it still feels like you’re hiding. You still watch what you say and how you behave around certain people. And a part of you continues trying to conform to society’s expectations. You wish you could just be your authentic self without fear of judgment, but you don’t know how. You feel trapped and helpless.

I believe people are innately resilient and adaptive. When we struggle from disconnection, grief, or sudden changes, we may lose touch with our self-compassion and strengths, feeling trapped in a story that no longer serves us. This may manifest as depression, anxiety, reactivity, substance use, or unwanted relational patterns. You don’t need to go through this alone. You can feel supported, understood, and valued in the face of grief, hard feelings and questions. I will bring hope, compassion, options, insight, and curiosity, but ultimately our work together will be collaborative.

As LGBTQ minorities, we often find ourselves wondering "where is my community?" and "why can't I just be myself?" It seems like we've tried everything but we don't feel like we belong or we are in a safe place to live & work. We often wonder... when is this going to get better? When can I just live my life fully how I am? Sometimes we feel sad and it can be a very lonely place. We can even forget just how special and unique we are because we are so different and surrounded by those who just "don't get it." We really want someone who can connect to us and make our experiences feel validated, reminding us that we are beautiful.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is basically David Rose meets early-00’s Britney (with a dash of Drag Race & a pinch of recycled WeHo go-go boy,) you’ve clicked on the right profile. But please don’t let my humor undercut the reverence & respect I have for the therapeutic process. Self-empowerment, radical acceptance & authentic human connection will be the cornerstone of our work. I utilize strength-based, affirmative & neuroscientific theory to guide us...but healing doesn't happen via theory. It lies in you -- your hopes, hardships, successes & infinite wisdom. Sometimes we'll laugh. Often, we'll cry. But either way...

*COUPLES COUNSELING* Are you and your partner in a stuck place? Are you having difficulty navigating around the same conversation or disagreement? Are you working toward recovery from an infidelity? I work with couples and individuals in Modern Love, a place that asks a lot of relationship. I'm an active and collaborative therapist who works to move clients past the comforts of what is known and into the possibilities of the unknown. I work with couples across the fluid spectrum, and in monogamist and consensual non-monogamy relationships.

As an ADHD, Autism, Chronic Illness, and Complex Trauma specialist, I understand how navigating life can be exhausting and confusing. At times, it can be overwhelming and debilitating, leaving you to feel numb, isolated, and misunderstood. This is where I can help! You are deserving of relief from anxiety, grief, and pain. You are worthy of inspiration. With me, your thoughts and emotions are welcomed without judgement. Together, we can work collaboratively to meet your needs, understand perceptions, cultivate your strengths, improve relationships and self-esteem, and achieve personal growth.

Hello, I’m Dr. Barbre, or just Teena if it's easier. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), with a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I am based in Orange County, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples. I set goals for myself and my clients and treat every session as an opportunity to make progress. I approach therapy with an eclectic assortment of approaches and tools to individualize our work together to meet your needs best.

When you're feeling worried, unhappy or experience the stress of trauma, counseling can provide the supportive environment you need to move your life forward. As we work together towards achieving your goals, you will find an empathetic and collaborative partner dedicated to helping you develop insight into the beliefs or patterns that interfere with your ability to have satisfying relationships or achieve personal fulfillment. Whether you're struggling with a crisis or need support with a parenting, family or relationship issue, we will work together to identify your roadblocks and develop solutions to reduce stress.

I wholeheartedly believe that you are your own expert on your life. Through therapy, my goal is to help you identify and work through the challenges and obstacles that may be standing in the way of gratifying relationships, a satisfying work life, and living the life you wish to lead. Your problems are not what define you as a person. I am interested in helping you clearly express your strengths, hopes, and values, which may have become lost amidst life's struggles. I do my best to create a safe and supportive environment with warmth, respect, kindness, curiosity, and a little humor.

I believe the past informs the present. Although we desire quick fixes and simple solutions, sometimes we have to take a risk, slow down, and truly connect with what was...so that we can now choose what will be.By providing a safe environment for growth, I can assist you through this sometimes overwhelming thing called life."

I believe no two people are alike and my approach is eclectic, deriving from many different modalities to better serve my client's needs. My style integrates humanistic, mindfulness and problem solving. We all have the ability to heal from anything life throws our way and I'm here to assist in uncovering your healing potential. My way of looking at therapy is simple, people come to me because they're experiencing some kind of pain. I help them come to terms with what that pain is, where it's coming from and how to manage and heal it.

Are you done feeling like you have so much more to offer but don't seem to ever get there? Are you ready to make big changes but need support? Have you survived trauma or addictions and think "I'll never get through this!" I love the moments when my clients break through seeming limitations and realize their unique abilities to reclaim their lives and their visions! Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues or other life struggles, I believe in possibilities. I join with my clients to strengthen their resolve, learn new skills and open to new options for expansion and success.
