Emotionally Focused Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

When was the last time you felt deep pleasure, connection or acceptance within yourself or a relationship? Therapy works when you find someone who gets you. As one of only 10 AASECT certified sex therapists in Oregon, I'm training a team to provide inclusive sex positive treatment for individuals, couples, groups and LGBTQIPA+ folks. We focus on the treatment of trauma, sexuality challenges (arousal, performance, desire mismatch, healing abuse, pain), gender concerns including resources during the gender affirmation process and exploration of alternative sexualities or relationship configurations including non-monogamy and kink.

Hello! My name is Carlos and I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California. I am passionate about psychotherapy and I believe that it is my duty to my clients to stay abreast of the latest trainings and opportunities for professional development.

I am a depth psychotherapist who works with kids, adults, and couples. My practice is inclusive and welcoming to all individuals and couples, with respect for all orientations, relationship styles, and cultural backgrounds. I have specific interest in treating ADHD, anxiety, anger and rage, depression, dissociative adaptations, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, mood and personality disturbances, childhood trauma, psychosomatic complaints, sexual challenges, and concerns related to substance use and video games.

Online Only-The best time to begin or restart your life's journey is NOW!. I provide comprehensive psychotherapy services. I utilize a culturally competent approach to assessment, and believe that psychotherapy requires the ability to understand culture, socioeconomic factors and ethnicity. My approach begins with establishing a therapist-client relationship by creating a safe, nurturing nonjudgmental environment to address your concerns and challenges. In addition, I understand addiction and the challenges that people face who struggle with substance use. I can assist you with determining if your substance use is problematic.

As a Licensed Therapist my practice is focused on providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples. I specialize in treating a variety of concerns, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, trauma, depression, panic disorder & anxiety as well as difficulties with social anxiety & relationship issues. Many of the clients I work with seek emotional regulation, healing from trauma, and developing healthy boundaries. As a therapist I work hard to tailor each session to my client's unique needs and empower them with transformative tools that can help create meaningful changes in their lives.

In many circumstances in life we find ourselves responding in ways that can be patterned, frustrating, and confusing, contributing to suffering. In our work we will prioritize your concerns and work to develop an understanding of current patterns and develop new ways of responding that honor you and your experiences, while pursuing growth and healing. Whether you are hoping to improve self-esteem, communication, or relationships, therapy can be a helpful place to find support and empathy while parsing through past and present factors that can make growth difficult.

Has your relationship flatlined? Do you often wonder, “When did the thrill vanish?” or “Why is World War 3 happening in my living room?” Is your partner dismissive, cold, or indifferent? Maybe intimacy has become a distant memory. Is sex even still on the table? Perhaps you’re terrified that the best has come and gone. The fixes you’ve tried have turned into a cycle of rejection, resentment, and amplified hurt. You’ve probably started seeing or looking for the spark from someone else.

Many of us appear to be functioning well in life, but in reality feel like imposters, often stressed and unsatisfied in our lives and relationships. I foster the discovery of genuine peace and fulfillment through "undoing aloneness," helping clients embrace their best and worst selves, and unearthing a more self-compassionate and authentic way of being. My clients are typically individuals, seeking treatment for anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, and a wide variety of relational issues.

Emotional and physical trauma, when unresolved, can leave us feeling alone, misunderstood, disconnected and sometimes shamed. It can keep us from forming the relationships we seek and alienate us from the intimacy we might desire. In a non-judgmental way, I engage my clients to help them find meaning and growth through a combination of deep understanding and emotional presence. My approach is attachment-based and focuses on attunement and self-acceptance. When working with couples as well as individuals, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).

The connection that you have with your therapist is so important in feeling safe and wanting to continue on the journey of therapy together. It's through this connection, when you feel understood, that you're able to heal. My approach is nurturing, non- judgmental, and collaborative. I want to support you in gaining the self-awareness to understand yourself, your goals, identifying obstacles hindering your progress, and feeling empowered to make necessary changes for a healthier and happier life.

Aramesh is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT143333) in Los Angeles, CA. She is experienced working with couples, individuals, as well as families. She believes that there is no one-size-fits-all when treating clients. Because of this she uses a blend of therapeutic approaches such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral, and Emotionally Focused Therapy depending on the unique needs of each case. Her therapeutic style is focused on empathy, transparency and building a safe and comforting therapeutic alliance.

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.

Many have lives where we wear many hats; home, career, relationships, family, and it can become overwhelming. When life adds stressors, it can make managing the hats difficult. I work with clients to take control of their lives by learning to set boundaries and discover the best versions of themselves, no matter what life has handed them in their pasts or in the present. My goal is for each person to learn why they are the way they are, learn how to progress through life, choose different paths, change patterns and behaviors to find a hopeful, peaceful sense of self.

Nurturing, strength-based and compassionate, I am an active and directive participant in my clients' work- whether working with individuals or with a couple . We together will identify what brings you to treatment, be it depression, anxiety, PTSD, marital distress, or simply discomfort. We will articulate where in your life you are struggling- interpersonally, at work, within your family system or in your marriage, and develop goals to relieve that distress. It can be challenging to choose to participate in therapy, and I work to create a safe environment so we can engage and address the issues that are challenging you.
