Emotionally Focused Therapists in North Hollywood, CA

I work with you and your sweetie to get back on track, feel safe, loved, and secure in your relationship.

Does it feel like your relationship is stuck in Groundhog Day? You have the same arguments over and over, while nothing ever changes. You love your partner, but some days you wonder if you really like your partner. If only you could get your partner to understand why you’re upset. Then maybe things would be different. These cycles start out as frustrating, but over time, they erode connection, trust, and a sense of emotional safety. You really want things to be different, better. You’re committed to your relationship, but you just don’t know where to start.

Do you have the right life partner? Consider the following questions, and if most of your answers are yes, you may want to hold onto and work on that relationship. Which qualities attracted you to your spouse? Do they still have the qualities you found so attractive when you first met? Are they often honest, trustworthy, faithful, supportive and kind? Are they willing to change and grow to meet the dynamics of your relationship? Will divorce harm you or your family? Will staying married have a more harmful effect? How will the divorce affect your family, especially your children?

Chad Nelson, LMFT I am trained in providing Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, and play therapy. I have experience providing school-based therapy, working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I focus on solution-focused and meet clients where they are at by setting realistic goals.

When you're feeling powerless, without control, let us move towards the power of your choices to help you heal in our world. I work with adults, intimate partners, and adolescents to meet them where they are to collaborate, with the mission to shed light on their journeys towards awareness, acceptance, and change they want. I am passionate about working with complex trauma/PTSD, interpersonal relationship issues, anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, perfectionism, neurodivergence, self-confidence, grief, and multicultural issues that arise within AAPI, BIPOC, immigrant, LGBTQIA+, and multiracial/ethnic communities.

No matter how dark things appear right now or how great the pain, I believe there is hope. Life can throw some crazy curve balls. I know how earth-shattering crisis can be. You may feel too weary to deal with what is happening (or may be tired of always having to be so strong), but sometimes transformation can happen just by holding on. I would like to be the person who supports you in hanging on, even if the rope seems to be slipping through your fingers. So if you feel like giving up, give me a call instead.

Wouldn’t it be great to live the life you imagined? A life not weighed down by your past, experiences, consistent worry, and sadness. I support people in creating a life free of emotional constraints and self defeating limitations. Empowering you to learn practical tools, explore new coping mechanisms and develop self confidence and compassion which will positively affect your ability to communicate, develop and maintain relationships and manage your stress. Finding balance and sustainable joy by healing and understanding your past and present is paramount in our work. As we work improvement spreads throughout your life.

Hi, I’m Amy, and I believe you were made to impact the world in a unique and powerful way. Yes, I’m talking about you! Maybe you don’t believe me right now…Maybe you’re feeling stuck, or weighed down by life’s burdens. Maybe you’re scared, disconnected, overwhelmed, or lonely…Maybe you’re grieving, or feeling like you don’t know who you are anymore…

My approach begins by establishing a therapist-client relationship where you feel safe to address your very real concerns. I believe that everyone is a unique individual that possesses an innate set of skills and strengths that can be used to address the many complexities that arise in our daily lives. My goal is to help clients build upon these skills and strengths they already possess, in order to achieve goals they desire. Together we will work towards establishing clearly defined goals that will hopefully lead you to the life you desire.

My approach to psychotherapy is influenced in large part by my own experience of existing as a sensitive and emotional human. It’s also influenced by my background in the visual arts which influences me to see the therapeutic space as one that is creative, dynamic and even playful. I try to operate from a baseline of empathy, curiosity and non-judgment. I work primarily from a Gestalt therapy style, from which I emphasize the power of the therapeutic relationship and the here-and-now experiences that emerge as the therapeutic process unfolds. I also utilize attachment theory and somatic experiencing in the way I work.

We are all doing the best we can and sometimes, we need help. My goal as a therapist is to provide a space where you can safely and confidently explore what has happened, what is going on, and what you want. Awareness is power! Awareness = Choice = Change. I see individuals and folks in relationships. I work with most therapeutic concerns and am particularly passionate about assisting those whose issues and existence are often excluded from the dominant narrative, particularly Black women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and those in Interracial/Intercultural and/or Polyamorous/CNM relationships

I understand that everyone needs and deserves a safe, trusting space to process the human experience. I believe that each individual experience is unique, while also understanding that no one should feel alone or that what they feel or need is wrong or abnormal. I help my clients feel empowered and capable of making decisions to live a most fulfilling life, as well as able to handle stressors while meeting their needs. I help process the multiple factors that contribute to one’s mental, physical, and spiritual health and life choices, as well as uncover the underlying fears that can impact our feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.

It takes courage to address your emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. But if you struggle with anxiety, depression, life changes or self-esteem issues, just know that you are not alone. I use teletherapy to provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you explore and process your thoughts, feelings and any underlying issues that may be contributing. I'm a licensed clinical therapist with over 9 years of experience in the mental health field and I'm passionate about helping others identify and meet their goals.

With almost a decade of experience practicing in California, my passion is focused on supporting the mental health and creative endeavors of actors, writers, directors, producers, musicians, and all entertainment professionals. Employing a blend of evidence-based modalities, including cbt and solution focused approaches as well as mindfulness practices, I create a safe space for clients to explore their creativity while addressing psychological barriers, relational and interpersonal issues, and the unique stressors associated with working professionally in entertainment, to empower them to reach their goals and achieve success.
