Welcome. My name is Teddy Seeds, and I am a licensed therapist with a passion for helping adults, adolescents, and couples improve their lives. To that end, I employ elements of humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioral therapies.

My professional background began in the financial services industry. I spent well over a decade climbing the corporate ladder and I ultimately became a managing director and equity partner of a successful capital management firm in the Los Angeles area. Although I had reached goals and achieved significant professional success, I also experienced a lack of personal fulfillment from my career. I enjoyed my job, my clients, and my colleagues, but at the same time I felt that something was missing. At that time, it was my own experience in therapy that helped me grow to redefine what success truly means.

I believe that people heal best by forming meaningful relationships. So, in therapy, I always seek to develop a genuine and trusting relationship with the person in front of me. I believe that a person’s true self emerges through this type of connection and knowing ourselves gives us the confidence we need to experience more joy and make significant changes in our lives. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, life transitions, loss, grief, troubled self-esteem, trauma, addiction, and relationship issues. I work with adults, couples, families, children, and adolescents.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have been practicing for over 17 years. Specializing in working with children, adolescents, and families from primarily a solution-focused, cognitive behavioral approach, I offer a variety of interventions best matched to fit my client's individual needs. Adept in working with childhood disorders, trauma experiences, grief and loss, anger management, and parenting issues, I strive to look at the "whole picture" and incorporate collaterals and family members, as needed.

I believe a successful therapeutic relationship is rooted in a deep academic understanding of human development, but is most effective when expressed as a pure, honest and simple communication between client and therapist. My approach is to actively engage, creating a supportive and collaborative environment that is equally empathic and challenging. By focusing on both past experiences and present circumstances, I seek to access the client's inner strengths in order to overcome difficult situations, make life changes and break unhealthy patterns.
