What an upside down world we live in right now! If you're reading this, you've been greatly impacted either by the life-changing pandemic or traumatic relational experiences that have left you wondering which direction to choose moving forward. Are you challenging yourself at the very core with questions like, "Who am I, really? & "What do I want/need from this lifetime, really?"

Hello, My name is Dr. Benedicte Last (PSY 30089). I practice clinical psychology in California. As a therapist, I support you in your journey toward the life you envision for yourself. In that process, we may process and heal the trauma that is holding you in the past, help you add or strengthen the tools to take care of yourself in the present, and in doing so, support you in laying the foundation of your future. In therapy, I use the theoretical approach that works for you. At times that could be psychodynamics, in which you work on understanding your emotions and unconscious patterns of behaviors.

Our work together will be met with unconditional acceptance, creative approaches, and the utmost compassion.

As a husband and father, I understand that it’s hard living up to the hype of a working professional, teen, or couple residing in the ambitious LA Southbay. You appear successful & like you have it “all together” but deep down are struggling to feel confident in who you are or cope with challenging experiences that have occurred in your life. Prior to becoming an Executive Therapist & EMDR Trauma specialist, I spent years in top universities and high stress corporate environments. As a result, I understand the pressures of school, work, and family life and can provide insight, strategies, and support to help you succeed and thrive.

I help people learn to become the hero of their own story. Each new transition you face in life is an opportunity to expand and refine your identity... but there are also pitfalls. We get hurt, we lose our way, we get caught up in shame and self-doubt. I work with a lot of grief, loss, and confusion around life changes. I've got a lot of experience with folks who have been adopted or in foster care — and people who find themselves feeling alone after a split from their family, their culture, or their religious faith. I'm passionate about helping people find their way into the next, better chapter of life.

As an intuitive & holistic therapist, I will assist you in strengthening your inner psyche and developing new tools to manage negative feelings and thoughts.

I'm passionate about working with and empowering young adults and adolescents. One of my favorite things about working with these populations is supporting them through their transition into adulthood. I believe that becoming the person you are and hope to be means addressing your anxieties and insecurities along with making connections between your past and present. It can also mean processing traumas and talking about difficult topics. I promise to support you every step of the way because I know it is a privilege to witness a client's healing and personal growth.
