My name is Steven Laska and am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. I am currently working with clients via telehealth. For many years I have worked with adolescents and adults who have come from diverse sub-cultures of society who are experiencing a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, substance abuse, fertility, adoption, parenting, living/dying transitioning, and cross-cultural relationships. My clients have ranged in age from adolescents to seniors and have come from various backgrounds with a diversity of issues.

I view therapy as a place and space that is sacred. It is the place that is safe and allows you to be your authentic self without judgement or pretense. This is the place where the unspoken finally becomes spoken in a way and manner that is transparent, dignifying and healing. The goal is for you to be honest about your values, dreams and expectations of your life and we partner together to get it figured out. Our work will create a space that is compassionate, nonjudgmental, accepting, affirmative and empowering for each one of my clients in order to move beyond the problem story and find their preferred identity.

Counseling services are provided to help couples, families, and individuals who experience issues dealing with life transitions, divorce, marital issues, self-fulfillment, personal growth, anxiety, depression and other discomforts that can cause major issues in their day to day lives. I will help clients to understand themselves, set goals, think positively, and gain independence in their thoughts and abilities. I find that most of my clients are looking to find a decrease in stress, acceptance, love, and strength to move on to the next part in their life.

Do you feel misunderstood, isolated, and distressed? Have you experienced trauma, discrimination, or have chronic illness and pain?

Whether your issues present internally or externally, I am happy to work with you to unpack and restore your whole self that creates resilience, empowerment, and self-care to HEAL, GROW, & THRIVE together!
