I’m Dr. Shadavia France, and I practice existential therapy. This approach is centered around helping you explore the fundamental questions and challenges of life, such as meaning, freedom, choice, and responsibility. It’s a bit different from some other types of therapy that might focus only on specific symptoms, as we look at your experiences in the context of your entire life and existence. I’m here to walk alongside you as you make sense of these elements in your life. Rather than providing easy answers, I’ll encourage you to explore these questions deeply and find what feels fulfilling and authentic for you. Together, we'll uncover ways to live more intentionally and authentically in line with who you are at the core

Then I realized I don't just want this for myself--I want to make this possible for others.

“Sometimes, you have to make a decision that will break your heart but heal your soul.” - Trent Shelton. Sometimes you just can’t. Can’t say no, can’t find motivation, can’t sit through another meeting, can’t stop worrying, can’t wear the mask and pretend to be okay, and/or can’t get out of bed. The list goes on, because at some point or another, we all feel like our struggle is too much to handle. But “trouble don’t last always” and you do not have to face your battles alone. Through a solutions-focused and person-centered approach, my goal is to help you nourish you. I help clients find solutions to issues involving boundaries, self-care, time management, trauma, and stress. Together we can visualize, explore, and define who you are and what you want out of life.

New Orleans, CA - Accepting clients in CA

I approach our first session with wanting to know exactly where you are and what you need today. This is because people usually book a therapy session with an issue in mind, or with a problem to solve. I assure you that if you are motivated to change your mindset and ready to work on yourself, that you will feel more peaceful and calm with just one session, and you will leave knowing that you will be able to solve what is going on. We tend to be harsh and critical of ourselves thinking that will promote change when that only causes us to procrastinate and feel depression and anxiety. To address this I offer you my book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on self-forgiveness- find it on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble, "The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness." I offer you my podcast- "All Things Therapy," which can be found on iTunes and Spotify. It is a mental health and wellness-focused podcast with over 410 episodes for you to dig into.

Riverside, CA - Accepting clients in CA

I'm here to help clients heal from their trauma. Tired of using trauma responses and skills that are no longer working? Or you are not sure what is a trauma response? Feeling so angry, numb, just don't want to think, feel or remember anything. The blank just isn't working anymore. The blank didn't work. Wondering if any or all of it was your fault. The answer is, it is not your fault. Learning to love yourself is hard for trauma survivors. I get that. Trauma healing is at your pace. Don't ever have to share what you do not want to. Nondisclosure is normal. One day you will know and feel that you are enough.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take L.A. Care Health Plan (Medi-Cal)?

Yes! If you use L.A. Care Health Plan (Medi-Cal) you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have L.A. Care Health Plan (Medi-Cal) you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
