Starting therapy takes courage.

It’s hard to push forward when you’re already exhausted. Maybe for you it’s anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or a traumatic experience. Regardless, we can get stuck in the same place because the change feels impossible.

However sometimes we get a glimpse of what we wish life could be like: that we could feel confident, strong, share life vulnerably with those closest to us, make clear decisions, and manage difficult feelings well.

We have therapists in Los Angeles and Pasadena who can help you make that change in your life.

Our therapists practice therapy in Los Angeles and Pasadena, but can also be seen virtually throughout California. Unlike most group practices, our co-practicing community is comprised of therapists and psychologists in private practice.

This means your therapist works independently, is paid fairly, and is employed by you, rather than a group. Furthermore, your therapist has freedom from group or insurance pressures, helping them to care for your specific needs.

Above all, we know that a good match between therapist and client is the leading indicator for therapy’s success. That’s why we have a care coordinator who can match you with a therapist that works for you.

Each of our therapists are quality, caring practitioners who invest deeply in the help they provide you. We can help you find your therapist today.

How Does Therapy Help?

Therapy isn’t just about talking; it’s about transformation. Just like a seed grows when planted in soil, our minds heal when the conditions are right. In fact, like a seed, you contain everything you need to grow. A good therapist helps you access the emotional strength, vulnerability, and insight of which you are naturally capable. Here’s how therapy helps:

  • Healing Emotional Wounds: Therapy provides a safe space to explore and heal from past traumas or current emotional distress as an individual, couple, or family.
  • Developing Coping Strategies: Learn tools and techniques to manage life’s challenges more effectively.
  • Enhancing Self-awareness: Gain insights into your behaviors, thoughts, and emotions, leading to better decision-making and self-improvement.
  • Improving Relationships: Through understanding oneself better, you can improve interactions with others, fostering a healthy connection as a couple or family.

What are the benefits of in-person therapy?

If you’ve been searching for “in-person therapy near me”, we have office space where you can see your therapist in-person. There are some important benefits to taking the time to drive in person to see you therapist:
  • Security to express: Therapy depends on your ability to feel safe to express and explore. So often our self-consciousness about someone listening can hinder our ability to share openly. In-person therapy provides a consistent secure environment for you to share with confidence.
  • Personal Connection: There’s a unique power to face-to-face interaction. You can feel this with friendships: the real-time non-verbal connection eases the exchange. This is supported by studies of interactions: even 0.2 second delay (which often happens over video) is experienced by the brain as a “fake” reaction. In-person sessions help you experience the genuine response of your therapist.
  • No digital bugs: You don’t want a video or audio problem to interrupt an important insight. You deserve to not be interrupted by digital IT issues.
  • Disengage from other tasks: Our clients report that coming in to the office helps them “clear the slate” from work tasks and get the most out of therapy.
  • We also offer virtual therapy sessions: Video sessions can be helpful for many people who would otherwise not be able to come in person. We have a secure video platform that is simple to use, helping you connect to your therapist wherever you are.
