Matthew Tentler is a marriage and family therapist in Southern California. He specializes in treating in depression, post traumatic stress disorder, addiction and cultural, spiritual, and identity issues.

I feel honored to work with families and couples seeking to reduce conflict and increase relational intimacy through improved trust and communication as well as helping parents build positive parenting skills. I also assist individual adults and preteens/adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, problematic behaviors, and negative relationship patterns and to aid them in finding life-affirming ways to cope with challenges. I am happy to offer therapy from a Christian framework, if desired. I believe that empathy and respect for others is profoundly important and feel blessed to walk alongside those seeking emotional healing.

Everyone is different, and therefore, requires a therapist who is tailored to their individual needs. I am dedicated in helping you through challenges you may be experiencing, whether this is something new for you, or has been attached to you for some time. My down to earth personality will help you feel comfortable and generate a dialogue that will bring you through life's difficulties. As a licensed therapist, I will aid in identifying challenges, and provide feedback to work towards positive change, thus enabling you to find inner strength and peace in your life.

I am Lysette Etti-Eyong, a licensed Clinical Therapist with over 12 years of clinical experience in an outpatient mental health clinic. My clients have included children, adolescents, parents, and legal guardians. I approach therapy as a healing process with a passion for supporting individual growth and empowerment. I also have extensive experience providing family therapy to improve communication, solve family problems, and support a better-functioning home environment.

When life gets complicated you may need a safe, confidential space to figure things out with an experienced, nonjudgmental expert you trust. I've had a successful practice for over 25 yrs. Because each client and situation is unique, I've learned what it takes to help clients thrive. Using goal-oriented psychotherapy, I offer a prescriptive combination of strategies based on preference. By gaining insight into emotional and behavioral responses and applying best-fit coping skills, my clients get the relief they need to not just move through the challenges, but beyond them.

I believe that living your life authentically is a core of life satisfaction. Sometimes our trauma, loss, or worry makes us avoid living in a truly authentic way. These experiences can lead to post traumatic stress, depression, and/or anxiety. I care about who you are intrinsically, and will work with you to process those painful experiences, cope with anxiety, and reach a point where life feels manageable again. I won't push people to relive bad experiences, but I will work to establish a safe space to share and explore your needs at your own pace.

It is so exhausting living inside a traumatized body and mind. Anxiety that seems to come out of nowhere; thoughts, feelings, and the overwhelm of re-experiencing events. Feelings of unsafety or a constant need to be hyperaware. Insomnia, changes in appetite make matters worse because the body and mind don't get the needed fuel and rest leading to cycles of collapse. The anxiety and collapse cycle can cause us to feel disconnected from ourselves, loved ones and the world. We can lose trust in our own judgment and ability to heal. My approach is informed by a holistic integration of practices to help reconnect mind, body and soul.

Reaching out for help is not always easy, but sometimes necessary to make positive change. You will find a comfortable, nonjudgmental and respectful environment to work on your unique challenges.

I work with people on a body, spirit, mind approach to mental wellness. For so long, it was believed that the mind came first, and we could talk or think our way into feeling better. My approach is looking at mental wellness from a different direction. The Body Approach: I use several somatic therapy interventions to help create safety within the body, so clients can manage their symptoms and make the changes they want in their lives. We work together to understand the states of the nervous system and apply calming techniques, such as mindfulness, movement, tapping, music, and breath.

Or, your mind might be in overdrive, you can’t turn it off and you are feeling nervous about today and anxious about the future.

"Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness." ~Desmond Tutu.

"Communication is the key to a healthy relationship." Ever heard this before? One of the most talked about subjects when it comes to romantic relationships is communication. But what about it? How can couples have good communication and create a healthy relationship? So much time is spent investing in finding the right person only to have difficulties and a breakdown in communication and ultimately the union. One of the most important relationships in our lives is our romantic relationship. Learning to understand each other and develop that deep emotional connection and lasting bond is one of the tasks that couples face.
