If you've become lost amongst obstacles on your journey, I'd like to help guide you to more happiness by offering suggestions, uncovering unwanted patterns, and leading you from the past to the present in order to heal and evolve, enhancing your happiness. Through changes in perceptions/attitudes and being willing to see situations with a new pair of glasses, you can reach your goals and evolve. My clients report that they enjoy my down-to-earth attitude and humor and my use of Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, TRM, meditation and yoga to treat mind-body symptoms. I work best with clients who are motivated to gain self-awareness and see patterns that are no longer serving them. I give homework between sessions in order to keep the continuity of healing working consistently. I feel very blessed to be working in a field that serves people who are finding their best selves and evolving into the people they want to be.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, your past, your present, or your future, you don’t have to do it alone. A shift in perspective can profoundly affect how we feel and what we are able to do, or stop doing, in our lives. Talking with someone who is both objective and 100% on your side can help you see things from a new angle and move forward in new ways, with someone who cares standing behind you.

Do you feel like you aren't operating at your full potential? Do you experience thoughts and feelings that interfere with your life balance? Although there are many reasons one seeks therapy, it is often our desire to feel connection, contentment and happiness. We all have unique stories that have shaped us. I would like to work with you to discover all that has led you to your current situation. To guide and assist you in a journey that will allow you to operate from a place of acceptance, compassion, and understanding for self and others.

If you want to chat and get something off your mind or put it ease, I'm here to support you. Maybe you're looking to become more confident and loving of yourself or you feel stuck and want to move forward but just can't seem to find a way to do it. I enjoy helping others learn more about themselves and how the world around us can really have a significant impact on mental health. Identity and attachment issues, addictions, past traumas, significant life transitions, and general anxiety and depression can be really overwhelming and it isn't always something you can do on your own. I work primarily with individuals 11-65 years old.

Accepting new clients! 11/03/23 Any of us can be overwhelmed at anytime and seeking help demonstrates your courage and commitment to yourself.

Here, you will learn to look at these challenges through different perspectives allowing you to gain better insight and awareness of how they are effecting you. These first few steps of your journey are crucial to the ongoing healing you may be looking for.

My name is Katie Szymanski (she/her/hers) and I am an Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Eagle Rock, LA. I work with children, teens, adults, and families. I specialize in trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders and creative and career blocks. I work with teens and children to help give tools and strategies for dealing with life's tough stuff and by giving them a place to be themselves and talk about difficult feelings.

We meet you where you're at and build on your resilience. We welcome you and invite you to start on your self care. We value diversity and acceptance; we work with all faiths, LBGTQ+, and all backgrounds.

I seek to partner with individuals who have been impacted by the stressors brought on by these uncertainties. Whether you are dealing with stress related mental health challenges, acute psychiatric disorder, just want to vent, or feel heard and listened to. I am here to help.

We all carry within us younger versions of ourselves - remarkable beings who have helped you navigate a whole lot to get you to where you are today. I connect with, nurture, and lift up these younger selves. I believe developing a deep connection to ourselves, understanding and holding compassion for all the ways we were taught to survive, and connecting authentically to others is how we break cycles and lean into a richer life.
