Individual Therapy in Los Angeles

Do you need Individualized Therapy in Pasadena?

Is this you?

Your emotions change a lot and it’s hard to get things done when you’re not feeling great.

Your thoughts are popping up non-stop... you feel like you either regret about the past or worrying about the future…

Or this?

You do things that aren't good for you and you want to stop… you just haven’t stopped yet.

Sometimes you use substances more than you'd like, have unhealthy habits with food, or isolate yourself from other people.

How about this?

You put the needs of others in front of your own needs because you haaaaaate conflict and upsetting other people. You might be a bit of a people pleaser…

You sometimes feel like other people don't get you. It seems like they don't experience the world in the way you do.

Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy

Many people who come to individual therapy feel trapped in a life they don't love. Sometimes they feel overwhelmed by feelings and thoughts, or they have the sense that they don't even have control over their own life. Folks come to therapy looking for ways to build a life they WANT to live.

Maybe you can relate?

There is hope.

There are evidence-based, individualized treatments that can help you live a life that feels less draining and more fulfilling.

Even if you don't believe you deserve this kind of individual care, I’m here to tell you that you do, in fact, deserve to be supported.

  • Individual therapy helps you rise above your challenges and start moving towards a life filled with less suffering and more fulfillment.

    It’s possible for things to change. Imagine a life where you could...

    - Feel connected to the people in your life.

    - Choose how you respond to the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that happen inside you.

    - Be surrounded by people who appreciate you for who you ARE… and actually BELIEVE that you are loved by those people.

    - Feel a sense of vitality and purpose when you wake up.

    - Gainenough confidence to be able to genuinely say "I am enough!" and "I am worthy!"

  • Individual therapy consists of 50-minute, one-on-one sessions that help you work toward your therapeutic goals. I meet with most clients once a week. During our time together, I will ask questions, provide education, and teach you skills. We usually practice these skills in sessions, and you are encouraged to continue using them between sessions.

    Interested in more details? While each session is tailored to the needs of the client, here’s a general step-by-step overview of how individual therapy works:

    1. First and foremost, I provide a space of acceptance and validation. I know it can be really hard to open up to a random person, so we will spend as much time as you need getting comfortable.

    2. Together, we identify some of the behaviors or patterns that you are hoping to change.

    3. You will learn skills, and we will practice them in session.

    4. We will get really clear on your values and the actions that you can take to build the life you WANT to live.

    5. Over the course of our sessions, we will process areas where you struggle to implement skills or take valued actions. We will problem-solve and troubleshoot so that you are better able to navigate future challenges.

    6. Our week is complete when we have determined that you have developed the skills you need to live the life you WANT to like.
