Therapists in Rosemead, CA

We all want to feel whole and achieve meaningful goals in our lives. To do so requires honesty and dedication, especially around the insecurities and defense mechanisms that have become ingrained within our personality. I can help you zoom out to gain more familiarity with your true Self trying to break through the surface of your persona. On one hand, it can be very anxiety provoking to feel that there is more to life than this. But, at the same time, it is an invitation to know, forgive and love yourself unconditionally. An invitation to feel into unknown selves and shadows, to accept You exactly the way you really are.

It takes a great deal of courage to admit that you’re facing difficulties, and even greater to take the steps to do something about it. Therapy, takes a great deal of commitment, honesty, and determination to find resolve and peace. Psychotherapy, talk therapy, is not always easy. Some sessions you will leave feeling positive, and other's Not so much. This is part of the process, and it's necessary. Know that you are not going through this alone. I view each working relationship as a partnership working together to find the best resolve for you. I am non-judgmental, accepting, and confidential PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE

Anxiety, trauma, shame, depression, grief, a lack of meaning in life - these are some of the issues that I strive to help people work through. My goal is to create a safe container in which you can explore your emotions and relationship issues without judgment. I am deeply committed to supporting you on your journey toward self-awareness, healing, and growth. I work with adults, couples and teens from diverse backgrounds, including the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities and collaborate with clients to tailor our sessions to the unique needs of each individual.

Are past traumatic experiences, being an adult child of a dysfunctional home, incest survival experiences, addiction issues, phobia, panic, anxiety, C-PTSD or depression affecting your success? Are distractions impacting your optimal performance abilities at work, in your intimate relationships, or in relationships with family members or with yourself? Are you surviving instead of thriving? I provide accelerated Psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are challenged by performance loss and emotional unhappiness. Also offer Diagnosis evaluation for addiction, mood, personality, and adult Autism spectrum. HSP and Kink friendly.

Trauma Work: It can be incredibly frustrating and shame inducing when you find yourself repeating the same negative relationship patterns, behavioral and emotional responses, and maladaptive thought processes. My approach to trauma work is both holistic and central nervous system oriented; focusing on the brain, body, and behavior to see how your body’s trauma stress response is keeping you stuck in old narratives and patterns. I am trained in EMDR which is perfect for clients who do not want to rehash the details of trauma or who feel that they have not had success with traditional talk therapy.

I have had the pleasure of being in practice for over 7 years, working with clients to help them reach their objectives and goals for therapy. My passion is helping people rebuild relationships, resolve stress related to anxiety and depression, and rediscover the best version of themselves with renewed confidence.

Finding and embracing an authentic self is one of the core missions of adult life. What too often corrupts this search, though, is the phenomenon of shame - a destructive force if there ever was one. Shame can contribute to substance use, depression, anxiety, interpersonal struggles, poor health outcomes, maladaptive trauma responses, and, at extremes, psychosis and suicidal ideation. Such maladies, when approached in the context of a compassionate and trusting therapeutic relationship, can be transformed into signs pointing the way toward a meaningful and fulfilling sense of self.

I work with the human psyche! WHETHER LIFE IS ON FIRE OR WHEN PAIN IS TOO STRONG TO BEAR OR IF YOU LOOK FOR PERSONAL DISCOVERY. My ideal client comes in in order to learn about how to tune with his or her psyche. Clients, in depth work, learn about the inner and outer relationships and how to connect with the things that lies underneath. I see clients who are looking for discovery of what exists beyond the behavior and their actions and who are willing to dive into learning about the forces that drive them.

I am a psychodynamically-oriented therapist, which means I work to help you understand your history so we can discover how it is influencing the ways in which you currently operate in the world. Those experiences can lead to defense mechanisms that can make it more challenging to fully connect to feelings and emotions. As your therapist, our relationship in the room is integral to the work. It is while navigating those feelings where self-discovery, bringing the unconscious to the surface, and corrective emotional experiences, help you diminish your symptoms, find clarity, and become a fully-realized, authentic human being.

Having experienced chronic pain, OCD, anxiety and depression, I enjoy working with people who also have these conditions and are looking for guidance and support from someone who better understands what they are going through. I know how hard and isolating it can be to cope with pain or a mental illness. My aim is create a safe space where you can share your feelings and hardships without fear of judgment while I use evidence-based treatments to help you develop the skills needed to treat these concerns. Note: I now do in-person hiking sessions in Los Feliz (as featured in the LA Times) as well as on the basketball court!

The sun goes down and you're desperate for sleep. Unfortunately, this is when your thoughts speed up. You're constantly thinking. You think about how much you think. Your mind replays the day's interactions with others, blaming yourself, and reflecting on how others have hurt you. Feeling like you always mess things up. Waiting for the other shoe to always drop. All you crave is a calm mind. A peaceful spirit. And a good night's rest.

In psychotherapy, I, Jarrad Malamed, an LGBTQIA-identified therapist, prioritize diversity and inclusivity. Through an integrative approach blending interpersonal, relational, gestalt, experiential, and cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT), I aim to customize healing and growth experiences for my clients. Interpersonal therapy (IPT) focuses on relationships' impact on mental well-being, emphasizing communication, conflict resolution, and healthy boundaries. Relational therapy explores past and present relationship dynamics, aiding clients in understanding attachment styles and fostering authentic connections.

I work with adults who would like to live more fully and freely through a brave exploration of their inner world. My work includes tending to depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. Sometimes it’s difficult to stay connected to who we are or even what we want with all that life demands of us. Juggling caring for ourselves and others can feel overwhelming. I am here to help you strengthen your relationships, including your relationship with yourself. Psychodynamic and Jungian perspectives are a focus of mine, as well as offering sand tray therapy. Boundaries with one's self and others are fundamental to my work.
