Lilli Rouleau
Hi! I'm a psychotherapist practicing in the LA area for 17 years. I went back to school when my youngest was in kindergarten to get my LMFT license. I meet clients where they are emotionally and help them discover what is getting in the way of them living a more successful and happy life.
I have worked for 17 years with many types of people but one thing always guides me - deep listening and working to understand what we can do to further strengthen the client.
I use deep listening and a sense of humor to fully support those i work with.
First session
In our first session, we will get to know each other and i will strive to understand how best to connect with you. We will go over a little of your past and where you are right now. I will probably ask "what brings you in today?" I am happy to answer any questions you may have. I will help you relax and feel comfortable with the therapy process.
Strengths
I have worked for 17 years with many types of people but one thing always guides me - deep listening and working to understand what we can do to further strengthen the client. Sometimes it feels as if we are just walking along together for a while trying to get to the heart of the issues. I have many tools in my toolbelt to meet you where you are.
Ideal clients
I love working with people who are in between who they were and who they want to be. People in their 20s, LGBTQIA, people looking for their next career, people looking for a change.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
My work is from a positive perspective - acceptance, encouragement, and a deep understanding of behaviors and reasons behind the behaviors. I believe change only comes after fully accepting the self. We will seek to understand and accept the past in order to move into a more fully realized future.
Gender-affirming therapy
i am passionate about supporting and fully advocating persons in the process of understanding and affirming gender. I am a longtime LGBTQIA ally and have written letters in support of persons seeking gender affirming surgeries.
Feminist
As a long time feminist I will support and encourage you to advocate for yourself at home and in the workplace.
