Being a woman in America in 2024 is not easy. A mentor of mine once said that she did not envy my experience as a woman today. She grew up in a different time, a time when she was expected to be a good mother for her children and a responsible homemaker for her husband. Today, beyond these roles, there is a subtle, quiet undercurrent of expectations including, but by no means limited to, being a “good” wife, sister, friend, and neighbor (what does “good” mean anyway?), a career woman, an impromptu party host with a meticulous home, and a selfless volunteer in the community, all while maintaining a size 2 figure.

I imagine you landed on my page because there is something in your life making you feel stuck. I'm here to tell you that you do not need to do this alone. I help children, adolescents, young adults, and parents obtain a “light mind”, so they can get unstuck and live the life they deserve. Some of my areas of support include anxiety, depression, OCD, family conflict, and parent practices. I provide individual therapy, parent consultation, and Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) coaching.

Dr. Trager is a Licensed Psychologist w/ 25 years of experience with women/men/non-binary, teens & young adults with mental health issues across a broad spectrum of disorders: depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, PTSD, grief & loss, identity issues and ADHD across diverse populations. I work on an intensive transformational level to heal, to build resilience, and develop new more effective coping skills. Dr. Trager received her doctorate from USC, and has continued her intensive training, and practice in the Los Angeles area. I am very passionate & present so that clients can do the work to heal and thrive.

I seek to help families, young adults and adults navigate recovery as it relates to substance abuse and mental health issues. If I could have an "ideal client", it would be someone that has never been to a residential facility before and to catch them before it gets to that point. Most often, the people I work with have some substance use history along with mental health issues. Fulfillment, time management, family relationships, communication, harm reduction, abstinence, stability, etc. are often topics that people I work with seek help for.

Life can bring challenges that are difficult to move past. Feeling stuck, powerless, or fatigued makes sense as you do your best to overcome what’s happening. Meeting responsibilities to family and friends often adds to the burden. I understand the territory of struggling to find a clear sense of direction or motivation, especially after loss. Together we can face these difficulties, and support you in growing into a more aligned version of yourself.

I'm told I'm warm, smart, and that I have a good sense of humor. (Sometimes my dog likes to sit in on sessions.) I believe therapy has got to change lives -- and be enjoyable. Unlike some therapists, I believe in setting goals and tracking progress. Why go to therapy without results? What's my specialty? Helping people free themselves from what holds them back. My approach combines Positive Psychology and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) with mindfulness and a creative mix of the best approaches known to modern psychology.

Hi, I’m Stacey. Whether your child has struggled for a while or has just recently started to exhibit certain behaviors, I know it's never easy to ask for help - which is why I'm so glad you're here. I believe children are always moving towards wholeness but sometimes need help from compassionate and knowledgeable adults. My work with your child will integrate the science of interpersonal neurobiology, child development, trauma-informed care, expressive arts, and play to strengthen the understanding, love, and security between you and your child.

I love working with teens and pre-teens. If you have tried everything you can think of to help your teen and they are still struggling, it’s not your fault. It doesn't mean defeat when you ask for help, it means you are smart and you know your child deserves better. Being a teenager is hard. There’s so much pressure from parents, coaches, friends, romantic interests, teachers, and an enormous amount of pressure they put on themselves. They want someone to talk to as they figure out who they are and who they want to be. It can be difficult to be vulnerable and friends often have well-meaning, but misguided advice.

I help clients find their voice and rediscover joy. Having witnessed the profound impact of EMDR in my practice, I am passionate about empowering individuals to reclaim their lives from the clutches of trauma. Whether the scars are recent or buried deep within the past, my goal is to guide clients toward a place of healing, where they can rediscover their strength, resilience, and capacity for joy.

I strive to bring light into the places and spaces where I used to try and find it. My personal experiences with addiction and my more recent transformation into motherhood have been the biggest driving forces behind my passion for helping others to find freedom, compassion, and wholeness.

I am a practical clinician who draws from an array of psychological approaches to assist my patients in achieving their goals. In addition to being practical, my therapeutic approach is aimed at understanding and integrating the dissonant thoughts and feelings at the core of most problems. I employ a focused and systematic method to identify the barriers to an individual's development and bring about change through an understanding and relinquishing of old models of coping. I am also able to utilize psychological measures of personality and aptitude to assist my clients in making decisions about their treatment and goals.

I am looking to create solid therapeutic alliances to help my clients further their understanding of psychological patterns and unconscious motivations.

I believe all have inner strength, and can rise above their challenges, choose the best path to live well and make choices that support growth and self-love. The foundation of my therapeutic approach is empowering my clients through self exploration.

I specialize in evidence-based treatments for children, teens, and young adults with anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and behavior problems. I have extensive experience working with clients from diverse, multicultural backgrounds. I strive to provide therapy that is grounded in science, while honoring the unique needs of each individual. My approach is deeply relational, and I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to understand your struggles and learn new tools. I am passionate about empowering clients to face their fears, change unhelpful patterns, heal from trauma, and develop more self-compassion.

I am dedicated to providing the highest quality psychotherapy services to my clients. I believe it is essential to provide psychotherapy that is based on the latest scientific research. You deserve nothing less. In my practice, I only use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT has been proven through more than 400 clinical outcome studies to be highly effective for the treatment of many mental health concerns including depression, general anxiety disorders, panic, anger and marital distress. CBT is one of the few forms of psychotherapy that has been scientifically tested and shown to help people improve their lives.

As we face uncertainty in our lives now more than ever, it is essential that we learn tools to help us capture internal peace, despite external circumstances. I recognize the true power that curiosity and a listening ear can have in honoring our life experiences while tapping into our inner strengths and resources. I assist children, adolescents, and young adults in navigating life transitions, stress, depression and anxiety from an atmosphere of compassion and acceptance. I guide parents in finding a deeper understanding of their child’s behavior - allowing them to truly “see” their child while helping them cope with big feelings.

Do insecurities or anxieties weigh heavily on your mind? Are you grappling with procrastination, feeling inundated with tasks? Perhaps recent life changes or world events have left you feeling drained and disheartened? Have you ever felt sidelined or marginalized? If any of these resonate with you, therapy offers a supportive avenue for healing. It's time you feel happy, empowered, motivated, secure, supported, confident, and loved. Together, we'll clarify your goals, implement actionable steps, and forge a path toward a fulfilling life that resonates with your core values.

I work with clients who suffer from various psychological ailments including eating disorders, emotional eating, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, trauma, and sexual problems.
