Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

Life can be difficult, and we all find ourselves at times struggling with difficult thoughts and feelings. Past traumas or current stressors can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, or disconnected from ourselves and others. As a psychotherapist, I provide a compassionate, safe, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore with curiosity their feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and how they serve them and where they would like to bring in change.

I work with individuals and adolescents as well as couples, providing a safe space for an exploration of inner distress. Through an eclectic mix of theories, I have watched my clients move from depression, anxiety, addiction and other difficult patterns toward a newfound sense of peace and harmony. This doesn’t come without its own brand of sacrifice, it takes a lot of self-honesty, self-acceptance and courage.

The problems we experience, and the context in which we experience them, can make it seem as if we are defective, as if there is something fundamentally wrong with who we are. Problems can saturate our lives until we think we've been robbed of the power to change. This is not so! We can change our relationship to our problems, through our own strengths and unique knowledge. Eitan is trained in Narrative Therapy, a collaborative approach that separates "the problem" from the person experiencing this problem, and which seeks to help people tell new stories about their lives.

Life can be really tough sometimes and has been for a lot of people lately. Between the stress of a pandemic which has come with a lot of health concerns, job stress, and financial issues, and then there is still the rest of life and its stressors to deal with on top of that. At this point, no one is immune to mental distress, and no one should feel like they can’t, shouldn’t, or aren’t worthy of having someone to help them through it. I can and want to be there for you in this way.

Addiction Therapy Newport Beach is an outpatient psychotherapy service for individual seeking help to work on drug and alcohol addiction and underlying issues such as trauma, mood disorders, stress management, relationship problems. We see addiction as the solution and not the problem and thus we focus on the underlying problems that the individuals are dealing with. Maybe you are just exploring your addiction or finishing a rehab program, maybe you have a loved one who struggles with addiction or you just want to continue therapy as additional support, we are here to help you with your needs.

Being addicted to alcohol or drugs is like being in a dark pit where you do not know what is up and what is down. It is cold and lonely, and you can feel hopeless about finding any escape. Being the family member of a loved one who is struggling with addiction is scary and can leave you sad and in a constant state of uncertainty. You are always asking yourself why is your loved one pushing aside the life ring you toss out and grabbing the anchor of drugs and alcohol over and over and over again. You see they are drowning and feel you cannot save them. Addiction is insidious, but there are paths to recovery.
