Hello dear reader, I am Carol, born and raised in Malaysia and have been residing in the US for over three decades since my undergraduate years in New England and eventually resettling in Southern California. Prior to my full time work as a therapist, I spent most of my life engaged in social justice work focused on racial solidarity building, immigrant rights and worker rights advocacy and in the anti-violence against women movement. I have a background in healing and prevention work within public health, health and community mental health agencies, immigration, family and criminal court-based trauma services, in academia, with global NGOs on women's health services for over three decades in the US and South East Asia. This drive to engage in social change work stemmed from my experiences growing up as a child of working class immigrants in Asia, having experienced, embodied and witnessed the painful effects and realities of racism, colorism, classism and xenophobia, from as young as I can remember. Gratefully, I also experienced the antidote in the goodness, solidarity, strengths, creativity, joy, mutual aid, deep friendships, faith, spirituality and community caring for each other, amidst life's hurdles. As a child, I strived to be a part of the solution, not a bystander, but an agent of social change, to knit communities in solidarity for peace. As a grown person, I have met my calling in bearing witness for healing harms done to the soul, holding a nurturing, loving and protective space for those looking to mend the raw and painful places that have yet to be tended, to find or reclaim the innate voice of your wisdom to speak your truth and to build, rebuild or restore inner strength and confidence.

Hi there! My name is Lara Manoukian, and I am eager to start working with you!

I utilize a wide variety of interventions to meet my client where they're at and take things at their pace. My goal as a therapist is to be a mirror for my client, reflect their goals back to them, and connect the dots alongside them.
