Therapists in Agoura, CA

Navigating life's challenges is never easy, but reaching out for help is a brave first step to living a more genuine and fulfilling life. I have expertise in working with individuals struggling with childhood trauma and trauma-related symptoms such as grief, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relational conflict. I believe every client is unique and deserves to be listened to and understood in an empathetic way. I am passionate about creating a safe, kind, collaborative and judgment-free space where clients can attain new insights, experience new feelings, and find a renewed sense of physical and mental well-being.

I believe in an approach that people are the experts in their own lives, and I am here to help guide them from a professional standpoint.

Life can feel impossible to avoid struggling and we often don't feel we have the skills to cope successfully through. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't have all the resources we need for a given situation. Parts of us take on desperate roles trying to help us to survive. This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, and trauma? Do you experience difficulties managing family and relationship issues? I believe that healing happens when we pay attention to all the parts that make us whole—our mind, body, and soul. The subconscious mind controls most of our reality and choices, so building awareness and active presence can improve the quality of daily living and assist in not only surviving but thriving through 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.

Mental health challenges are due to the aftereffects of traumatic experiences. Trauma can place a strain on your family, work, relationships, and even cause issues with self-worth. I specialize in trauma therapy along with treating personality disorders, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction. All these disorders can look different from person to person, and that is where our therapeutic journey of empowerment and self-exploration begins. I concentrate on creating a safe space of growth and self-discovery through unconditional positive regard, emotional regulation, and guided activities.

Has trauma, anxiety, or depression interfered with the potential to become the best version of yourself? We often feel defined by traumatic or emotionally difficult experiences that often leave us feeling stuck in place rather than moving forward towards our goals. I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space for you to develop an understanding of yourself to overcome past experiences or fears that define you. Our work together will be met with unconditional acceptance, creative approaches, and the utmost compassion.

I provide In-Person sessions out in the local Simi Valley community as well as provide In-Home sessions (based on executive decision). I also provide telehealth sessions via zoom. My name is Zinat Hashmy and I am a LMFT. I graduated from Mount Saint Mary's University and I have worked with the county, in residential group homes, inpatient treatment centers, school based settings, and private practice.

Seeking help can be scary and exciting, and it takes a lot of bravery and courage to take the initial step. You may be feeling like you are depressed and anxious due to your trauma. I aim to meet you where you are mentally and emotionally and help you grow, learn skills, and adapt to new changes. We can work together to identify your goals and needs and address the emotional and behavioral challenges you experience.

Welcome! We are a team of psychotherapist who are united in our commitment to providing the highest-quality mental health care available to adults, adolescents, couples & families. We help high-functioning professionals, anxious overachievers, survivors of abuse, complex trauma and PTSD. Anger, numbness, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, phobias and addictions are usually the result of unresolved trauma. Even the slightest incidents can be traumatizing, impacting us from the inside out and hijacking our ability to cope. The good news is, you can’t change your past, but you don’t have to live there.

Do you find yourself stuck in a rut? Doing the same things over again, expecting difference results? Do you want to feel free and easy? Strong and confident? Able to be effective, empowered, and create the life you desire, and deserve? I can help. I want you to feel hopeful, to see options and possibilities, to discover who you truly are, and to lead the life you are intended to live. I want to help you believe that you are enough, and you are worthy. Learn to let go of what no longer serves you, and grow.

Struggling with addiction and feel rehab isn’t an option? Leaving your family, job, school and responsibilities for an extended period of time is not always needed to get yourself healthy and on track. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction, I know the challenges of this lifestyle. Being caught in the cycle of addiction is hard--feelings of fear, failure, guilt, and shame. You may have tried stopping on your own, only to find yourself engaging in the same unhelpful behavior. Breaking this cycle alone is tough! Counseling may be more effective for you than rehab. I specialize in moderation & abstinence based approaches.

One who is experiencing any type of relationship issue, that is wanting to work on themselves and continue to strengthen either themselves or their relationship by working through the challenges that have exposed areas of growth in the individual.

The current unprecedented state of our world has presented many challenges and taken a toll on mental health and wellness, triggering the body's stress response, de-activating the immune system, and putting our mind/body in survival mode. This has the propensity to escalate anxiety, depression, addiction, and disease and reactivates outdated coping skills and keeps our body in fight or flight. Let's work together to create a strong support system to manage and navigate the stress and uncertainty and minimize the toll on our mental health, physical health, and relationships, and empower ourselves for the future.
