Therapists in Los Angeles County, CA

Do other therapists not understand your sexual preferences? Are you struggling to connect with others or your partner? Are you satisfied? Our culture features sex everywhere, but we don't or often can't talk about it. Sex is a complicated part of our lives- encompassing culture, religion, self esteem, time; the list goes on. Let me help you find yourself and increase pleasure and satisfaction in all aspects of your life! www.Nicolettavheidegger.com

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.

I offer both In Person and Telehealth options. Pretty much everyone you have met in your life have experienced trauma or something scary/ traumatic. Trauma impacts our brain, body, and relationship. It impacts our daily routine. Do you ever feel sadness and wanting to isolate? Do you ever feel overwhelmed or anxious? Do you find yourself feeling agitated or easily annoyed with others? If you answer yes to any of these questions, I can help.

Are you overwhelmed or suffering from panic attack? Do you feel very anxious or have relationship difficulties with others? Are you looking for a therapist who can work with you in a safe place to explore your resources and find effective ways of healing through nurturing experiences?

I am very effective in treating anxiety and panic attack.

How are you feeling today?

My ideal client has the potential to recognize that they have the answer lies within and that I, as a therapist, am there to help them find the answer within themselves. All of us seeking therapy have that potential within ourselves. I am trained and skilled in working with all ages. I have experience in working with clients with different cultural backgrounds, especially LGBT clients.

I authored the book, "Attachment-Based Strategies to Improve Self-Esteem..." in 2013. I am here for you and your family to achieve positive results and feel better quickly so that you can continue to have the relationships in your life that you desire and also need.

I believe that each of our lives is an ecosystem, comprised of the interconnecting forces that influence our well-being. This includes our relationships with other people, with cultural and economic forces and even our own bodies. When we are out of balance or suffer trauma, we are often left feeling anxious, depressed or lost. Could you use an ally in making the "ecosystem" of your life more healthy and vibrant? I provide therapy for adults, children, couples, intimate partners and groups.

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.
