EMDR Therapists in Pico-Robertson, Los Angeles, CA

I treat codependency...a fancy word for over-focusing on others and under-focusing on you. Letting others determine your self-esteem is a dangerous thing to do. But when you're harmed as a kid, you learn that you don't matter. You come away from childhood with broken "antennae". You don't see unhealthy traits in others. Too much pain teaches you to ignore your feelings and live in your head. It's a trick that gets you through childhood, but it sabotages adult relationships. My passion is helping you use your voice to get what you want.

Congratulations on taking the first steps toward a more manageable life! It is not easy to sift through the list of many fantastic and capable clinicians to find the one that feels right for you.

I'm a Licensed Certified Social Worker with many years of clinical experience, currently licensed in CA, FL, NJ and NY. The focus of my work is with betrayed partners (of sex addicts). Most of my clients approach me trying to understand and process the trauma that they have suffered. For many patients, their recent trauma, is not their first. Patients often tell me that I’m so easy to talk to and that they feel comfortable and validated when working with me. In helping my clients understand their trauma, and the dynamics around it, I work gently and carefully, while ensuring comfort and safety as we talk about these difficult topics

Clients who benefit from my help appreciate a therapist who is warm, nurturing and supportive in his approach and at the same time confronts the difficult issues that bring people to seek my assistance. I am an experienced clinician, and I draw upon a variety of techniques ranging from talk therapy to Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR. My clients feel I help them with life issues including depression, anxiety, and trauma.

Have you been in therapy and still feel stuck, anxious, sad, or easily triggered? Have you been involved in a recent traumatic event or have a history of trauma? I can help you create a toolbox, unique to yourself, with resources needed to be more resilient when confronting difficulties. I utilize EMDR, an evidence-based treatment known to help sufferers of all kinds of trauma reduce or eliminate negative thoughts, difficult emotions, and sensory interference. Therapy with EMDR can help you find more meaning in your relationships, become more productive with your work, create a space for self-care, and find enjoyment in your life.

Are you interested in exploring personal relationships, identities, or sexual issues from an open-minded and culturally sensitive perspective? Do you have past sexual traumas, toxic relationships, or codependency patterns that you would like to discuss in an objective and nonjudgemental space? When you allocate time to speak freely about these issues, you empower yourself to navigate any negative patterns or relationship dynamics from a place of curiosity instead of criticism. We will collaborate on the best way to unpack and understand your story from a growth mindset that is sustainable + strength-based.

Greetings! I'm Patricia Ulloa-Green, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with an extensive 24-year background in the mental health field. Dedicated to assisting individuals navigating adversity, I bring a passion for helping others discover creative solutions tailored to their unique needs. Having triumphed over my own challenges, I approach therapy with a deep understanding of life's complexities. In today's world, trauma is pervasive, and my goal is to provide compassion, kindness, and empathy as we embark on your healing journey together.

I am kink affirming and knowledgable, LGBTQ+/sexual and gender minority inclusive, and a sex positive provider.

My integrative approach to therapy is tailored to meet the unique and specific needs of each client. This therapeutic style helps clients explore core beliefs about themselves and facilitates growth towards inner strength and resilience. I create space for clients to believe and trust in themselves, and help clients recognize how they respond to internal and external stressors while they navigate feelings of anxiety, depression, and/or childhood wounds

As a psychologist, my goal is to help you make lasting changes in your life. In a setting emphasizing compassion and kindness, I encourage you to work through areas where you are stuck. Together we will discover your resources to go beyond past and current traumas and troubled relationships. I work with individuals, couples, and families. While my approaches vary with your needs and aspirations, the goal is to establish a trusting relationship that will help you find your own way to joy and fulfillment.

I believe that our journeys, through life's experiences and struggles, make us who we are. My own life's journey has led me to my career as a psychotherapist, which allows me the opportunity, honor, and privilege, to work together with my clients to realize their own strengths, limitations, and to identify and achieve their goals. I believe this can take place, within a strong therapeutic relationship, built on non-judgment, trust, safety, and compassion.

Wether you struggle to restore perspective, calm and balance in your life, attempt to heal trauma, depression and anxiety, or seek to discover and pursue greater potential and purpose, I offer a safe, open, curious and non-judgemental place to do just that. Everything you think, feel, do and experience actually makes complete sense - we simply may need some time to understand and appreciate why it does. This growing awareness allows for better design of a life with purposeful future and relief from the past, offering real, actual choice rather than the apparent choice in repetitive, automatic and unconscious routines.

You've had regular talk therapy for years, but you did not get the results that you need. As a Certified EMDR therapist, I will help you rewire your nervous system & move from survival mode (fight-flight-freeze-fawn) to a productive mode (emotional regulation- critical thinking- decision making - creative), thus leading the life that you desire. This evidenced based modality heals attachment traumas which are the roots of current symptoms. I specialize in Inner Child and Parts Work, Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM), somatic based therapy & Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (Advanced Attachment Based Couples Therapy)

Clients seeking to change need to have a new EXPERIENCE in session; talking is not the same thing as changing. We will use a range of strategies to create a new experience of yourself. I am an EMDR certified therapist and using EMDR, can address long-term difficulties such as relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, low-self-esteem. EMDR is also used with great results for individuals who have had a recent distressing incident such as a car accident, break in, assault, etc. I use a variety of out-of-the-box strategies to create new possibilities in how you experience yourself and others.

I believe everyone has the capacity to achieve their goals and become their authentic self. My approach to therapy involves empowering individuals to better understand themselves and tap into inner resources needed to heal and make desired life changes. I focus on helping you develop a deeper exploration of who you are and help you understand obstacles and trauma getting in the way of you achieving what you desire in life. We cannot change the past, but together we can work together to create a better future. Therapy is difficult self -work, but I will work alongside you to create the space to promote healing and empower you.

My name is Lyssia and I am an EMDR & Brainspotting trained therapist offering therapy across California for individuals age 13+ and couples. I bring experience from working with the US Navy, medical settings, and school based programs as well as more intensive depth work, attachment theory, and humanistic leanings to my clients. My hope is to create a space where you can be your authentic self, feel heard, understood and supported however you're showing up. Whether you're going through life stage or relationship challenges or dealing with anxiety, trauma, depression, or other concerns, I am here to help you move forward.

Finding the right therapist is not an easy task, especially when you are in a vulnerable spot in your life. You might have some hesitations about opening up to a person you don't know. Take the time to explore different options and make sure that you land with a person that feels safe for you. Because when there is safety- there is healing. My hope for my clients is that they feel seen, heard, and understood, so they can start making sense of what's not working for them, and work with me on how they want their life to look like. It's never easy! but it's very rewarding.
