Do you feel like you have the insight but don’t quite know what to do with it- how to process it or heal? You are not alone. I help individuals and couples move beyond the surface to work through what is keeping them stuck. I use IFS, EMDR and other modalities to connect you to your wounds, unprocessed memories, and blocks. Together, we set to discover the parts of you that hold pain and unlock your full potential by exploring what is holding you back. Couples: If it feels like you’re speaking different languages or having the same argument over and over, you may be stuck in a negative cycle that’s hard to see from the inside. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), rooted in attachment theory, to help partners reconnect, communicate vulnerably, and rebuild. Oftentimes, what stands in our way is fear—because we have a deeply rooted need to feel safe. I understand. It’s much easier to stay in something comfortable than to risk the unknown; our minds and bodies are wired that way. My hope is to reflect your strength and worth, and to provide a safe, trusting space where you can feel seen, heard, and valued.

Hello, my name is Gladis, and I am here to support you. Do you feel like you're carrying a heavy burden that's weighing you down? Have you ever had a difficult experience that you never shared with anyone, especially during childhood? Maybe it's been a struggle to cope with mental health issues like addiction, depression, or anxiety, and you think it could be linked to something that happened to you when you were younger?. I specialize in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and my expertise is in treating childhood trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Together, we can navigate various forms of trauma, such as grief, loss, divorce, separation, domestic violence, and emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. By working with me, you can gain a deeper understanding of how these experiences have impacted you, both emotionally and physically. This knowledge can help you regain control over your reactions and behaviors and begin the healing process. I hold an M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy and an M.S. in Clinical Psychology from California Lutheran University. Additionally, I am certified in Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Managing and Adapting Practice, Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Positive Parenting Programs.

Hello! I'm Michael and if you are reading this, you are likely considering therapy as an avenue to make a change in your life. This is the first step in building the life you deserve. Are you overwhelmed by your emotions? Stuck in your past? Worried about the future? Do you just feel...blah...like you can't quite put your finger on what's wrong? You are in the right place! These are questions I can help you answer. I help men and women improve emotional skills, reduce symptoms, and develop coping skills to deal with life's challenges. Together, we will create a plan that works for you. This is your life and only you know the answer. You just need a little help uncovering it. Change is scary and uncomfortable, but if you can choose to show up anyway, amazing things can happen. I realize coming to therapy can be tough and so I like to make your experience with me as safe and comfortable as possible. I hope to hear from you soon.

My name is Shant Bardakjian and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Glendale, California. I currently work with children, adolescents and adults within the greater Los Angeles area. My approach to therapy is tailored to the client’s needs. I enter into therapy with whatever the client brings into the session. If you need a creative approach to solve your problems, then I would use Narrative Therapy. If you need to fix your problem right away, then I would use Solution Focused Therapy. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness. I use an eclectic approach with a person centered lens that can be flexible for whatever need is brought into the room. My communication style is calm and approachable. I would like my clients to feel at ease in sharing whatever is on their heart without fear of judgment. I decided to become a therapist because I have wanted to help people discover their best selves. I have been drawn to helping people discover their innate ability to heal past whatever is keeping them stuck in life. My aim is for whoever works with me to be able to define a goal that can be accomplished and for trust to be gradually built within the therapeutic relationship. In this way, the progress that is seen in therapy will in turn translate to improvements in multiple areas of your life. In our first session together, you can expect the primary focus to be for me to hear your story of what brought you to therapy. The first session is to determine if there is an initial connection and also questions that would enable me to better understand what would work best for you as treatment progresses.

Therapy and meeting a new therapist for the first time can be a little scary, but you've taken the first step, which is great! If you’ve never gone to therapy, or if it’s been a while, it’s time to move forward and rediscover the best version of yourself, and I'm here to help you do that.

I also work with parents in high-conflict custody disputes to help them navigate the complexities of family court.

In these unsettled times, a therapeutic support system can be beneficial to all of us. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and hopeless coping with life’s challenges, it’s helpful to have someone calm, supportive, and empathetic to listen and provide guidance. Given that everyone is unique, and our lives are complex, I tailor my approach to you and your needs. My goal is to provide an environment that is safe and supportive so that we can work collaboratively to help you reach your goals.

By gently turning toward these parts of ourselves, we create space for healing and growth. My goal is to support you to feel heard, seen, and empowered to transform these challenges. Through mind-body-spirit integration, you'll reconnect, find balance, and discover what transformation means for you.

My personal, professional, and cultural background is vast and varied. I have lived in 3 different countries and speak 3 languages (Dari, Farsi, English) and am familiar with 2 more (Urdu/Hindi and Spanish). I am passionate about education and psychology. Being of service to others is my life purpose. My approach to therapy is holistic and client-centered. I truly believe in the strength of the individual to heal and grow. When I'm not in session with clients, I usually spend time in nature, or with family and friends. I enjoy activities such as hiking, archery, billiards, comedy, music, reading for knowledge, and traveling to new destinations.

Hi, I'm James. I believe that the fundamental purpose of therapy is to create and facilitate change. Whether you are beginning or resuming the pursuit of healthy change in your life, I would love to join you in that effort. As a Marriage and Family Therapist and Supervisor of 15 years, I have had the privilege of serving a wide array of clients and I specialize in collaborating with you to decrease the impact of trauma, severe depression, anxiety, and psychosis. Regardless of the context that brought you to initiate this search, that intentional decision is a commendable step toward creating healthy change. I have spent much of my career serving and leading in agency work, and therefore have seen the results of systemic and societal trauma in its purest form and proudly serve those who are described as "high acuity", as well as those who need help with nagging doubts, sticky insecurities or outdated patterns. I encourage you to take that next step into self-care, healing and change. I pledge to honor your story, your process and to facilitate change. *Currently not accepting SELF PAY clients **Currently only accepting weekly clients (or twice per week if clinically indicated) on the hour. All appointments scheduled at the :15 or :30 mark will be moved and confirmed! Thank you!

Welcome! Whatever has prompted you to search for a therapist, I am honored to be by your side during this journey. We, as humans, are meant to be connected. I believe we live in a detached society that hinders us from connecting to others and ourselves. I am here to help you in finding your way back to your authentic self. In my practice, I hold a safe space for you to process your unique story. Having experienced my own challenges and pain, and sitting with others in theirs, I come from a place of empathy and unconditional positive regard. Together, we will develop new tools and skills to help you find healing and empowerment. I can't wait to meet you and begin this challenging, but well worthwhile journey!

You deserve to feel well and live your most authentic life. I provide tools to help you embrace a deeper understanding of yourself, strengthen your coping mechanisms, improve your mood, and thrive with increased daily functioning, self-efficacy, self-esteem, self-awareness, and authentic self-expression. When life feels overwhelming, our minds can convince us that we are alone in our daily challenges and during our most difficult times. We get used to handling it on our own. I believe there is a better way. Working with a psychotherapist who can deeply connect with where you are on your healing journey can be transformative. Transformation might look like addressing symptoms, resolving a problem, or seeking something more. By guiding you to deeper insights and clearer understandings, together, we are better able to confront the barriers that may be holding you back from the life you want to live.

I specialize in helping individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma achieve the happier and more fulfilling lives they desire. These challenges are often complicated by lack of motivation, trouble experiencing pleasure, self-deprecating thoughts, interpersonal conflicts, and feeling as if you don’t have direction in your life. Some clients know what they want, but they have obstacles that prevent them from moving forward. Other clients are searching for change and want to create meaning in their lives. Wherever you are, I will provide support and compassion as we work towards your goals and aspirations. I do not provide opinions for emotional support animals, disability, or fitness to return to work/other activities for clients who are not well-established at the time of the request. I do not provide couples therapy.
