Life Coaching Therapists in Culver City, CA

I am here to help you make better choices. Healing is now! You have probably done your best to pull yourself out of sadness and fear but still feel stuck. Perhaps you find yourself going round and round in hurtful patterns in your relationships and still feel unseen. Maybe your creative path has reached an impasse. I am here to see you and hear you. I am committed to helping you find joy, passion, love and deep respect with your loved ones. The therapy relationship is sacred.

You may already be embarking on a journey of self discovery or have just begun to look inwards. Either way, I can join you where you are at. People often turn to therapy during times of questioning circumstances or choices in life or sometimes it's just a feeling that something doesn't feel right. Therapy is a way to help access and develop the part of you that has the answer. In this collaborative manner I will help you to gain insight into and change maladaptive patterns that keep you stuck and away from the life you want to live. It is never too late to open the door to a new way of being.

I became a psychotherapist because I wanted to be "that someone" I always wished I had in my life . Someone who believes in you when you lose hope in yourself, and get stuck in what seems like perpetual darkness. I feel that my job is to help shed the first stream of light into the darkness, so together, we can see the bigger picture. Collaboratively, we'll explore your hopes, dreams, and goals. I will help you navigate, and walk by your side, until you reach them, or you are confident enough to do it alone.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, stress management and insomnia, and how these can adversely affect your relationships and daily life . My style is interactive and direct, and I am passionate about helping clients work through areas where they feel stuck and hopeless. Seeing your life begin to turn around can be profound. We will work together to discover your strengths and help you use your strengths to create positive, lasting change. If you are feeling hopeless or isolated in battling issues alone, or need someone to help you get to a better place, please reach out. My website for more information is www.sulimtherapy.com.

“Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful parts of us” - David Richo. Many of us struggle with the wounds of our past, the pain that we might be struggling with in our present, or the uncertainty of our future. Change can be scary; and sometimes it can feel easier to stay in the known, even when that brings fear, pain, or resentment. You being here recognizes that there is a part of you that is interested in changing. I come to you as a woman of color, a first-generation American, a mother, and a therapist – these roles influence my approach.

Change is possible. With over 20+ years of experience I have successfully worked with individuals, adolescents, couples and families to reduce anxiety, depression and overall conflict, whether it be at home or work. As little as 3-5 sessions my clients have reported that they have higher self esteem and greater confidence in all areas of their life . High stress can hit you during times of change; birth, separation, divorce or death of a loved one. I will help guide you through this difficult time. Each client's therapy is individualized, collaborative and strength based. I offer 2 hour dive deep intensive couples therapy.

Strength Hope Resiliency Positivity Gratitude Healing These are key concepts that I highlight in my work as a Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working over 15 years as a clinician with people from age 14 to 90 and their families. The issues brought to me most often include substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, trauma, grief and loss and difficulties in relationships. My approach is one of collaboration and a compassionate attitude toward the person to develop a good rapport and a mutual understanding of the goals for treatment. My techniques are tailored to the person

As a person recovered from substance abuse and mental health challenges of my own, I have dedicated myself to finding more ways to help others find meaning and direction as the leaders and heroes of their own journey in life . I seek to enrich my perspective with many psychological tools and frameworks as well as different philosophical perspectives on life . I know the most important thing in working with a client is to allow them the agency and autonomy to guide their healing process, and to this end I have sought to study as many modalities as I can in order to remain well equipped in finding the best tools to offer each client.

Are you or your child struggling with anxiety, depression, or behavioral issues? Have you found yourself feeling stuck or unable to create change? Therapy can help you cope with these challenges and set you up for future success. I find a positive and trusting client-therapist relationship to be the most essential component of the therapeutic process and place an emphasis on creating a safe and non-judgmental space for effective reflection and growth. Incorporating humanistic, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches, I work with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, oppositional defiance, high-risk behavior, and family dynamics.

Therapeutic orientation is largely from a Psychodynamic perspective, working collaboratively with adults with various disorders, i.e., anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma, etc. The approach is to build rapport and explore past experiences, current cognitions, and patterns of behavior with a focus on the client's unique needs. The therapeutic goal is to help gain insights and catharsis (“ah-ha” moments) with the client toward their psychological improvement and well-being.

Starting therapy can be overwhelming. My goal is to eliminate that stress and create a space for adolescents, adults, couples, and families to process emotions and explore their identities and their relationships in a non-judgmental, safe environment. We all undergo transitions and experiences that require additional support from an objective third party to allow us to thrive personally and interpersonally. I utilize individualized, evidence-based approaches to foster a collaborative environment that produces long-term change.

I offer therapy and coaching to help with dating, building relationships, and repairing broken relationships. I provide trainings and consultations to professionals and community.

Life is busy and somehow your needs stay in the background. Regardless, you maintain your responsibilities and relationships with a smile. Behind the smile lies your inner self who feels overwhelmed, overlooked, tired, and insecure. Your deepest desire is to just be seen, heard, and fulfilled. As you move forward, your unacknowledged needs and feelings surface and keep you from reaching your full potential. You often question your abilities and worth, which keeps you in a cycle of doubt, insecurity, and fear. As you compare yourself to others, you wonder what it's like to be fulfilled. Deep down, your true self longs to be revealed.

Currently accepting new clients. Therapy begins with building a foundation of trust. Depression, anxiety, relationship stress... there are endless reasons to seek therapy. I offer a safe and neutral environment to explore the complexity of human existence. In a non-judgmental environment we will have the opportunity to support you in determining your values, examining your patterns, setting attainable goals, and working towards sustainable and meaningful change. Committing to change through therapy can help you find relief from emotional distress, develop adaptive skills, and find practical solutions.

Hello! I provide support to women, young adults, mothers (of all ages and stages), parents, families, and kiddos.

We will work together to connect you to your intuitive voice and build a deeper connection to yourself. I am warm, caring, straightforward and would love to collaborate with you to create positive change in your life .
