Career Counseling Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

Just navigating the medical world feels like learning a whole new language in a foreign city. There are so many life changes, it can feel extremely overwhelming.

In therapy, we work to untangle the knots that stifle connection and growth. I bring a curious, creative, and collaborative stance to the practice of therapy, with an aim to expand awareness and deepen understanding. I am particularly attuned to help people struggling with the impact of trauma, anxiety, life and career transitions, creative blocks, and parenthood. I hold space that is deeply informed by cultural sensitivity and allyship. We will work together to loosen the grip of worries and help you feel more connected to your needs and goals.

My goal is to walk with you through transitions, helping you navigate the challenges, stressors, and fears related to moving forward from a relationship, a job/career, or the loss or shift in identity. I aim to support you in the process of (re)discovering yourself in these transitions, especially when faced with questions about sexuality, expression, and roles in your daily life. Together, we will explore new perspectives and unknowns in transitions, helping to equip you with the confidence to progress, uncovering patterns, parts, and habits that may no longer serve you in their current state.

There's no instruction manual for life. Relationship problems, career questions and mental health issues can make us feel confused about our own identity, where we fit in and how to move forward. I specialize in helping adults and couples navigate difficult feelings, identify and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and become "un-stuck" in order to enjoy a more peaceful mind and a happier life. My approach is open, casual, and collaborative, and I strive to maintain a space that is judgment-free, and where clients feel fully accepted, truly seen and supported. I'm LGBTQIA+-friendly, sex/kink-positive and culturally-sensitive.

Individual psychotherapy can be a challenging process, one that fosters your emotional awareness and psychological development. It allows you to work through issues that give rise to depression and anxiety, and enables you to grieve the many losses and disappointments that continue to live within you. As your therapist, I am committed to help you resolve all life, career, family, and relationship difficulties or transitions. Your greatest potentials are within you. Together we will reach your individual goals.

My clients find me during various times in life: young adulthood, transition into working world/career, partnership/marriage, becoming a parent, transitions through parenting, mothering, mid-life, peri/menopause, loss, grief & aging. The anxiety, sadness, upheaval & unknown along with the learning, empowering, joys & personal growth of these times is where I work best to help my clients. There is suffering in so many ways in life & there is relief from suffering in also so many ways. I work with my clients to create their own unique & dynamic set of life tools & supports for ongoing healing & wholeness.

I specialize in the treatment of complex trauma, OCD, depression and anxiety. I strive to create safety with each person I work with so we can explore what is going on emotionally, physically, cognitively and spiritually. Trauma and stress live in the body and, in my experience, an integrated approach is most helpful, where we pay attention to feelings, physical sensations, thoughts, behaviors and images that arise during sessions. I also utilize mindfulness, and inner child healing. We will work together moving towards your goals, so that as you feel better, you will have more freedom to become the person you want to be.

For BIPOC people and LGBTQIA+ folks, finding a space to be their authentic and unique selves feels impossible. Those of us who have been "othered" live in a world full of oppression as well as hurt, pain and trauma. This oppression leads to depression, anxiety, image issues, substance abuse, risky behaviors and self harm. My role as a therapist is to create that safe environment to work through the trauma, re-write the narrative and empower people to be their best versions of themselves that fosters love, acceptance, and healing.

Do you sometimes feel like a tourist in your own life? Has your career reached a dead-end but you don't know how to make a change? Has your marriage or relationship grown stale or become a fight that never ends? Do thoughts of a better life whisper to you in the midst of depression, anxiety or deep fear? Conflict and getting stuck can be part of living, and sometimes our problems seem like they are updated versions of what plagued us as children and teenagers. What would your life feel and look like if these weren't there?

Who knows what exactly makes a certain therapist right for a specific client? I think I'm most successful when I listen to the client's needs and see discrepancies in what clients want and how they're going about getting it. We can understand and resolve conflicts in career and in relationships by learning the old ways you adopted when you were a kid that don't work so well now. Let me know if you need help balancing day-to-day day challenges with big 'what-am-I-doing-with-my-life' questions.

I do not not practice a one-size-fits-all type of life, career, and leadership coaching, therefore all coaching programs are personalized based on your experience, paradigms, challenges, and goals. This applies to my clinical work as well (that is if you are seeking a clinician for standard talk therapy.
