Eliza McKenna, LCSW, based in California, from the east coast. I'm a mom and hobby gardener and artist. I approach my practice with Humanism and strive to co-create insight and transformation with clients. I've worked on helplines, in child protection, with the seriously mentally ill, and as a psychotherapist in psychiatric clinics. In addition to private practice, I help run an Employee Assistance Program, and manage a number of employee health programs. My approach to providing therapy moves through the four noble truths. We diagnose the suffering and identify its cause.

I believe that throughout life’s most interesting journeys, whether painful, full of change, optimistic, or oppositional, it is often easier to have someone to walk with.  I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, major life adjustments, and grief, family and relationship issues. Some of the populations I have worked with include: Young adults, first-responders, premarital/couples, post-partum partners, and first generation students.

Relationships between husbands, wives, lovers, boy/girl friends, children or parents can be tricky. Happy, satisfying and fulfilling relationships require attention, energy, fun, humor, communication, time and investment of yourself. Too often relationships are hampered by misunderstandings, hurtful actions, stress, differences of opinions, unmet needs, and different expectations. Personality changes over time, affairs of the heart, infidelity, unmet sexual intimacy, abuse, cruel words, neglect, self-centeredness, different communication styles, different goals, values and dissimilar interests or fun activities also create unhappiness in relationships. Dr. Carol Francis has worked with relationships satisfaction for 32 years. 310-543-1824 or RelationshipSatisfactionNow.com and drcarolfrancis.com pathstosuccesses.com

Sometimes, when faced with many of life's challenges, we can find it difficult to reach out. Often fear or shame get in the way of asking for help. But there is hope. Working with a therapist, you can begin to feel validated and discover that you are not alone. Do you have a fear of abandonment or fear of intimacy? One or the other can mean you're either a Love Addict or Love Avoidant. I can teach you how to love yourself instead of looking for it in someone else, and bring down your walls and be relational.

You feel stuck in an endless cycle of emotional blackmail. One moment, your partner is loving and everything is normal. The next, they explode and cite you as the root of all their problems. The unpredictability is exhausting. You care about this person but feel like they are breaking you down. You want to save the relationship, but your boundaries are being ignored and you are beginning to lose sight of who you are. You are so busy trying to avoid conflict that when you look in the mirror, you don't recognize who you see anymore.

Let's face it, being an adult can be hard sometimes. Whether it's being stressed and anxious about work, relationship problems, or dealing with a loss or break-up, it can get pretty overwhelming. But it doesn't mean that you need to go through this on your own. In therapy, I typically work with clients who are experiencing relationship issues, break-ups, anxiety, depression, and adjustments to illness. This is a safe space for adults of all ages to de-compress and work through these issues in a confidential and comforting manner.

Hello! My name is Margaret and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. My work is tailored to the individual client and integrates multiple modalities based on their specific needs. My job is not to fix or change people, but to facilitate a growth process in which clients can become more aligned with themselves, heal pain from the past or present, and explore and affirm what lies within. I firmly believe that even my youngest of clients are the expert on their own lived experience, and that much of my work is to help them see more clearly the potential and strength that was there before they even began therapy.

I provide a supportive and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe it is important to teach clients strategies to use throughout their life, so that when they leave therapy, clients feel more confident to cope with future difficulties in a positive way. Learning skills along with self exploration can lead to progress in a shorter amount of time. Clients of all ages can benefit from this approach.
