Therapists in West Hollywood, CA

I work with individuals who struggle with excessive worrying, overthinking, and restlessness, trauma, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, as well as those who generally just want to improve their lives. I also work with couples who want to improve their communication and conflict skills and be more loving toward each other. I work best with clients who are wanting to grow and are willing to look inward to develop a deeper, more profound sense of self.

I provide psychotherapy to young adults, adults, couples and families who would like to explore trauma, anxiety, and relationships. I am passionate about working with clients who are self-explorers, question askers, and have a profound desire to increase well-being. I specialize in the treatment of relational trauma, anxiety symptoms, relationship and attachment challenges. Our work will help you develop self-understanding + self-compassion, improve your relationship to self + others, build self-esteem + self-worth, challenge perfectionism + people pleasing, learn to set healthy boundaries, build coping skills and healthy habits.

Whether struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, dissociation, relationships, reproduction or existential despair, I am here to help. By approaching your well-being from every angle, we will work together to facilitate a mindful exploration of your conscious and unconscious thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I will help you build a personalized self-care regimen aimed to help you learn about yourself in a kind, compassionate, and non-judgmental way. This may allow you to begin exploring how your mind and body process experiences; how your past may get activated in your present; and how your body instinctually responds.

Healing from trauma, reclaiming power, growing from struggle and learning to work WITH emotions rather than AGAINST them are the goals I strive to support my clients in achieving. I want to help my clients move beyond simply not feeling so depressed, anxious, angry or manic. I want to help them transcend their pain, feel like they are fulfilling their purpose in life, are able to truly love themselves and are cultivating relationships that feed their soul. Narrative Therapy teaches my clients to transform the meaning of what they have been through and techniques from Existential Therapy help clients create or discover their purpose.

Struggling with unresolved trauma, persistent anxiety, or depression? Coping through substance use or feeling overwhelmed by your emotions? Your journey matters, and I'm here to guide you. With over a decade of experience in trauma and addiction therapy, I offer a compassionate, integrative, and holistic approach to healing. My personal battles with trauma, addiction, and life's challenges have deepened my empathy and expertise. I provide alternative approaches to the traditional 12-step program as well as the option of outdoor walk therapy, allowing us to explore unique avenues of support.

I believe the connection you have with your therapist is essential to having a positive experience in therapy. People seek therapy for many reasons. You notice feeling sad, stressed, worried or overwhelmed; you experienced a traumatic event or a great loss; you are trying to change certain patterns in your life; you want more fulfilling relationships. Whether I am working with individuals, couples or families, I am empathic, collaborative, and provide suggestions and feedback in a safe, respectful and supportive environment. I have worked with different cultures, backgrounds, ages and professions, and love learning from my clients.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and at heart, a Healer. I believe healing involves the Mind, Body, and Spirit and that through this connection, we can let go of painful Trauma and Limiting/False beliefs that hold us back. I work with Individuals and Couples to help bring clarity where they may be confusion. I use EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help people work with Trauma and to develop and strengthen their sense of self. When we come from this place of self-awareness, we can have truly satisfying relationships with others because we have healed the wounds within.

Are you struggling with past or present trauma that leaves you feeling anxious, depressed, disconnected or critical of yourself? Trauma work is my specialty. I support my clients in a healing, safe environment to do the toughest work they may face...healing their past. Are your relationships suffering? Maybe you've been struggling with addiction issues. We can explore your struggles in these areas to get you the clarity you desire, and an action plan for recovery.

Learn how to feel more connected to yourself, others and the world around you. Therapy provides all the elements of intimacy: honest communication, vulnerability and trust. Good therapy is challenging yet warm, providing both structure and empathy for your unique experience. We are a collective of therapists with a wide range of specialties. Our intake professionals will help connect you with the right therapist for your needs. We make appointments easy, offering evenings and weekends and flexibility for creative professionals who can't make the same time each week.

I help people navigate the big choices in life, confront issues like depression and anxiety, and face down bigger problems like addiction or unresolved trauma. Maybe you sense something isn’t quite right — your job, your marriage, your personal relationships and want to get “back on track.” Together we can face difficult choices, move through the stages of change, and help you recover a sense of personal integrity. I work with couples, individuals, and sometimes families to improve communication, explore values, and address underlying issues which may be a source of conflict.

I believe that the best therapy is done when your relationship with your therapist has a strong foundation, meaning, you like and trust your therapist enough so the therapy space becomes a place for creating the changes you want. I believe in people and their ability to heal. We all develop patterns of being and thinking and sometimes those patterns just don't work anymore. I am compassionate when exploring emotional and psychological patterns, anxiety, depression or relationship issues to establish new boundaries, and feel empowered.

With expertise in Trauma & Eating Disorders, I address anxiety, depression, PTSD, and body image to lead a more holistic wellbeing. My goal is to empower you by increasing self-awareness, exploring the impact of life experiences, and providing practical coping skills. With my warm and tailored approach, you can embark on a transformative journey toward wellness that you deserve. Healing begins with a conversation, I'd be honored to support you.

You've had regular talk therapy for years, but you have not gotten the results that you need. As a Certified EMDR therapist, I will help you rewire your nervous system & move from survival mode (fight-flight-freeze-fawn) to a productive mode (emotional regulation- critical thinking- decision making), thus leading the life that you desire. This evidenced based modality heals attachment traumas which are the roots of current symptoms. I specialize in EMDR, Inner Child/Parts Work, Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM), somatic based therapy, Resourcing, & Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (Advanced Attachment Based Couples Therapy)

Kyra Haglund, LCSW, SEP, E-RYT, is a clinical social worker and Somatic Experiencing practitioner dedicated to working with adolescents and adults in individual and group therapy. She is an integrative therapist that draws on traditional psychodynamic and cognitive interventions, mindfulness practices, and somatic psychotherapy to meet the individual needs of each client. Kyra views therapy as an active process between client and therapist. Within the safe and compassionate environment of the therapeutic relationship, new perspectives on life's challenges and the ability to make healthier choices emerge. The underlying goal is to help the client live a more fulfilling life.

I am a Mindfulness and Trauma Resilience trainer who believes success and happiness result from a balanced mindset. Being stuck in unhealthy patterns, failing to accomplish the change we desire, or sustaining the nurturing relationships we deserve are all issues we expect to resolve on our own, but when we can't we feel defeated. Therapy is support that helps unearth our own best solutions while increasing skills and practices that grow fulfillment.

Life can be challenging. Sometimes it can even be hard to know what it's like to feel safe or content. Learning how to feel safe enough to truly enjoy life, people, relationships, one's own body, and one's own internal world is what therapy is about. It's from that place of inner safety that we can feel healthy, joyful and bring forth the best parts of ourselves. Are you interested in a cutting edge healing process? To succeed in accessing healing capacities, and to resolve trauma I practice a few different forms of somatic therapy: NeuroAffective Touch, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, and EMDR.

Welcome to Accelerated Psychology. I created this practice to offer cutting edge psychotherapies and neuoscientific treatments in a warm and compassionate environment. Integrating neuroscientific and psychotherapeutic treatments is often the most effective path to psychological healing and growth, because the two approaches work synergistically to create a brain state that is most receptive to treatment. For over 25 years, I have specialized in helping those who suffer from mild or severe anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, ADHD, or post-traumatic stress, and helping survivors and witnesses of terror from around the world.

As an individual who feels stuck, lost or unfulfilled, you often wonder if you can ever feel peaceful again. You feel like you’ve tried everything, but nothing seems to work – at least for too long. Perhaps you feel like you take one step forward and three steps back – pushing you even deeper into the dark space you’re in. Seeking help from a therapist can seem scary because you want to make sure you choose someone who you truly connect with. What if you could return to a state where life felt happy, fulfilling and clear?

Relationships, work, and life, in general, can be tough. Being told, "it will get better" or "time will help", although well intended, doesn't help. Being able to connect with someone who listens, connects with you, is honest and direct about challenges in order to help you navigate through the process can help.
