THERAPY FOR RELATIONSHIPS IN LOS FELIZ

Because intimacy doesn’t have to feel like a minefield.

It’s time to unpack emotional patterns & heal relationship wounds

Do you find yourself anxiously overanalyzing every text? Feeling too much, too soon—or shutting down when someone gets too close? Do relationships feel like they should be easier by now, but you keep hitting the same walls?

If you grew up without consistent emotional attunement—if love felt unpredictable, unavailable, or unsafe—you might now be navigating relationships with a mix of longing, fear, and self-doubt. And if you have ADHD or a creative mind, you may feel everything even more intensely.

Emma, a therapist in Los Feliz, specializing in relationship therapy with online sessions available in Oregon and California

Hi, I’m Emma!

The good news?
You’re not broken. You’re wired for connection.

It’s easy to feel like something is wrong when relationships don’t come easily or when old patterns resurface. But the truth is, you’re built for deep, meaningful connections—you just might need some guidance to understand and navigate the barriers that are holding you back. Your ability to love and connect is not a flaw, but rather a strength that deserves nurturing.

With the right support, you can build healthier relationships, overcome past wounds, and feel more secure in your ability to connect with others authentically.

In therapy for relationships, we can explore:

Why certain dynamics repeat in dating or long-term relationships

How your nervous system responds to intimacy and what it needs to feel safe

What secure connection looks and feels like

How to communicate your needs with clarity and confidence

What it’s like to feel chosen without having to perform

How I Work

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and rooted in curiosity and compassion. I integrate modalities like

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

to help you process stuck trauma and shift long-held beliefs

IFS (Internal Family Systems)

to build a deeper relationship with your inner parts and restore self-trust

Mindfulness and somatic practices

to bring awareness and regulation to your nervous system

Attachment-focused talk therapy

to heal relationship wounds and reconnect with your core self

Together, we’ll move at your pace. Some sessions might focus on skills and tools for the present moment. Others might go deeper—gently exploring your past to understand how it shows up now.

What to Expect

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable—but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Here’s how it works:

  1. Initial Consultation (Free, 20 mins)
    We’ll connect briefly by phone to see if we’re a good fit and talk through any questions you may have.

  2. First Session (60 mins)
    We’ll explore what’s bringing you in and what you’re hoping for. You don’t need a perfect narrative—just honesty, curiosity, and openness.

  3. Ongoing Sessions
    Most clients attend weekly or biweekly sessions, depending on your needs and goals. You’ll set the pace and direction—we’ll work as a team.

Whether you're single, partnered, dating, or “figuring it out,” you deserve relationships that feel safe, reciprocal, and deeply fulfilling.
