Teletherapy for Glendale - Los Angeles, CA

Seeking therapy is a brave step. Whether you are presently in crisis or simply feeling a bit stuck in life, I honor the effort & courage that it took you to get here. It suggests that—regardless of how you might feel in this moment—some small (or large) part of you believes in the possibility of a more peaceful, fulfilling life. As a therapist, I am here to not only affirm and amplify that belief, but more importantly, to help you discover and define its reality for yourself.

What is important to you? What do you value? How is your life currently reflecting those values and what is getting in the way? These are the types of questions I ask to help you better understand yourself, your needs, and how to get those needs met. It is important to me that the space we create is compassionate, open, curious, reflective, and interactive, where you can bring all parts of yourself and be genuine, without judgment. Common issues that I work on in therapy include life transitions, managing stress/anxiety, building your sense of Self, relationship concerns, and improving communication.

Currently Accepting New Clients. I believe in collaboration. It takes two in a relationship, and I am here to guide you with your problems. Empathy, Positivity, and Self-Analysis are at the core of my techniques. These factors allow a safe place for us to understand your problems and confront challenges that keep you from the peace and happiness you deserve.

My name is Vanessa Graf and I work in relationship development, starting with the relationship between me and my client. Although I work with couples, my best work is with the individual striving toward self-awareness. As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist , I teach strategies to manage mental health issues while teaching mindfulness, self acceptance and Self Love - the key to happiness! I am an empathic counselor with a good sense of humor!

The therapeutic process is about becoming most fully ourselves. The more we come to know ourselves in an authentic and true way, the more fulfilling our lives and our relationships become. Change occurs when there is a new understanding, not just in our intellectual mind, but in our bodies and spirits as well. This kind of work, though difficult, and sometimes painful, is also deeply rewarding. It can also seem like a scary idea to some, not knowing if making lasting change is even possible.

Many people get to a point in their lives when they feel stuck. Friends and family who used to be able to help are no longer able to, or don’t know how. During these times, it can be beneficial to have a relationship that is different, one in which you can share honestly without feeling judged or misunderstood and, in turn, be asked questions that can enhance insight and spur positive change. Welcome to therapy! As a therapist, I am welcoming, compassionate and curious. Therapy can be hard, so my goal is to help you to feel safe and accepted while engaged in a journey that will naturally involve some discomfort.

I help people who feel disconnected from themselves and find what matters most to them. In the 7+ years I’ve been providing therapy, I have developed a therapeutic style that focuses on understanding the unique experiences that have shaped your sense of yourself and how you move through the world. I also have a particular interest in exploring clients' religious and spiritual identity. Together we can gain a better understanding of why you feel disconnected and take decisive steps to help you feel more engaged and excited about life.

My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space for you to freely express your thoughts and feelings about life's complexities. Together we will work on making changes to benefit your life. I believe everyone is capable of change, but does not know how or want to put in the work. I want to motivate you to succeed at creating the life that you want. I often tell people that looking for a therapist is like finding the right pair of shoes, sometimes you get lucky on that first try and other times you need to keep looking. Please don't hesitate to call me.

Kat Valentine is an LGBTQIA+, kink, and poly-affirmative therapist, who works with adults, romantic partners, chosen family, and teens. Kat takes a humanist, collaborative, attachment-focused approach to therapy. She is working towards becoming a certified Emotionally Focused Therapist. She has experience empowering people to work through shame, anxiety, depression, ADHD, coming out, and relational issues. She believes it’s often useful to examine the stories we tell about ourselves and our relationships in order to weave new narratives that better serve us.

You are an individual with a unique story. Perhaps you’re a parent who wants to expand what it means to raise a child, maybe you’re processing trauma and working on re-parenting yourself, or you’re exploring questions of gender and sexuality. I come to this work because of stories. Stories of the human condition, stories we tell ourselves, the story that culture tells us, and stories that need repair. Sometimes we need help understanding, processing, or reimagining our stories.

My practice focuses on relationship-building whether it be with a love interest, partner, immediate/extended family members, the workplace, etc. Whatever methodology (CBT, IFS, hypnosis and more) I use creates multi-layered assessment of response to crisis, trauma, separation, alienation, etc. In relationship we are challenged to explore identity, values, self-worth and sense of belonging that give you the tools to be successful. Included in the work are homework assignments and setting short-term and long-term goals. In this way profound and lasting changes can be made in a short period of time.

I have worked with people through their bodies, minds, and souls for more than 25 years. My focus is in Depth-Somatic work. Depth Psychology looks at what is going on deeper than thoughts and behaviors. Somatic Psychology brings respect for what the body has experienced, and for its wisdom. Somatic and Depth together reclaim psychology from behavioralism—-restoring a reverence for the soul. I work in a way that is gentle and deeply respectful. Together, we will listen for what is asking to heal and use modalities that support the body, brain, nervous system, heart, and soul to come into the present moment, balance, and strength.

I have over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. Using different approaches based on each individual. I have experience working in schools, trauma centers, and community based settings, working with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I look forward to meeting you and starting this journey with you.

I believe the therapeutic relationship can change lives. Through this relationship I work together with you to unlock your potential to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. We do this profound work by exploring the complex stories we weave around our histories and by respecting the deep-seated need for intimacy and self-expression that motivates us.
