Therapists in Topanga, CA

Are you tired of traditional talk therapy? Overwhelmed with feelings of anxiety, or fear and stress? Maybe you feel like you've already done "so much work on yourself" and yet you still engage in some self-defeating patterns. This may show up in dating the same dysfunctional type of person, or acting out childhood patterns at work, overworking to please your boss without being recognized. You may lack patience or sometimes get impatient with your partner/children, the same way your parents were with you. Or maybe you shut down when you need to speak up, since many of us were taught to be "good little girls and boys". I can help.

A Licensed Psychotherapist specializing in trauma, crisis, grief, anxiety, depression, and relationships. Veronica provides an empathetic and caring environment to work through challenges without judgment. Veronica obtained her B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Applied Developmental Psychology and Master’s in Social Welfare at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She is trained in CBT, DBT, and family and couples therapy.

I practice general psychology and works with clients who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, prenatal and postpartum issues, anger, parenting challenges, and couples issues. I also have a concentrated interest in the family of origin trauma.

Creating a safe, caring, non-judgmental environment in which to engage in a deep, authentic healing process is my intention. Anxiety, depression, and other painful issues, often have their roots in developmental wounding and/or trauma. I help you get to the causes of your pain and patterns that no longer serve you. Mindfulness and somatic resourcing allow you to experience relief (and rewire your brain) while safely navigating and processing the past. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, PTSD, relationships, career, self-esteem, and auto-immune, pain and other somatic challenges. I offer individual, couples therapy, groups, workshops, and retreats.

Are you ready to break the painful cycles that keep you depressed, anxious, hopeless, addicted? Would you like to learn how to be alone and not feel lonely? Are you ready to leave the old story behind and realize your true potential - live the full embodied life you deserve? It takes great courage to break with ones' past story and stand alone, to learn to be reunited with yourself. Trauma lives in the body as wound. Through a client-centered, trauma focused somatic approach, as you become willing, we will take that journey together and tend those wounds that are the place where light can enter.

Do you want to be happier and feel less anxiety and have more clarity. We all get challenged by accepting where we are with our problems. It's hard to be mindful about facing our issues. I can help you embrace that part that you are running from & if you can practice tools--you can start living the Way of Positive Psychology and you will heal & start to feel better. You really can do this. You really can heal. I haven't always felt as Anchored & Happy as I am now--for 25 years-I studied practiced & would be honored to teach you.

I help adults learn to manage and understand their unwanted thoughts and difficult feelings while healing past wounds that often times keep them stuck in patterns of anxiety, depression, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Most treatment approaches focus on treating the “symptoms” and sometimes miss deeper patterns that cause these unhelpful thoughts or behaviors to occur. Together, we will gently examine the root cause of these patterns, let go of beliefs that no longer serve you, and learn how to regulate difficult emotions to empower you to meet your own needs and build healthy relationships with yourself and others.

Accepting new clients in person and via video. I offer a welcoming, supportive space for you to gain insights and practical skills to enhance your well-being. Deep-seated beliefs can often limit us and the stress of modern life can overwhelm our systems. I can help you create a personalized plan to feel differently about yourself, achieve your goals, and find more ease and calmness in your life. Our body can get into a state where it is dysregulated both physically and psychologically. We can learn to self-regulate and experience greater tranquility, joy, and happiness, while managing sadness, anger, and anxiety more effectively.

When our children's hearts have been broken, our hearts break, too. Parents often struggle with knowing how to care for a hurting child. The child's behaviors can be challenging.

Let's develop the skills needed to build confidence, improve communication skills, dive deep into bringing out your identity and feel in control of your emotions, create coping skills to build better habits, battle procrastination & have more fulfillment in life.

Trauma is often the result of an overwhelming amount of stress that exceeds one's ability to cope, or integrate the emotions involved with that experience- We work to relieve symptoms of trauma from a difficult childhood, challenging relationships or events that have contributed to anxiety, depression, addiction and more.
