Teletherapy for Brentwood - Los Angeles, CA

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a core part of engaging in healthy life changes. Change is very difficult for most people and sometimes all it takes is to talk about your struggles and have someone to listen and try to understand. My belief is that the therapy relationship can help the healing process no matter what it is you are dealing with. The first step towards having a happy life is a healthy mind.

My expertise is relationships. See, maureenehosier.com and maureenehosierphd.com. My podcasts and books provide information as to what is going on between you, that your relationship is emotionally not working. There are tools to help you both to first learn to stop the disastrous conflict that you both perpetuate. And I want to tell you both what is happening and why it is happening, in order for each of you to focus on instead, making things work for you both. You both can absolutely learn to CARE for your own self and about your partner, so things work for you both, in the same moment in time. And not have to fight and argue.

Perhaps you’re feeling disconnected from yourself or others, or going through a life transition that seems unmanageable. Maybe you’re just tired of old patterns that don’t work anymore. Maybe you are just feeling stuck. A psychologist can help you identify the coping mechanisms you have developed throughout your lives that may not be serving you anymore. I collaborate with clients to help alleviate symptoms of anxiety, stress, trauma and relationships concerns. I partner with my clients not only in pursuit of symptom relief, but ultimately in pursuit of a deeper self-knowing and sense of resilience.

I believe that it takes courage and a certain amount of fearlessness to reach out for support. My goal is to make the therapy experience as welcoming and individualized as possible. I specialize in teaching both adults and children specific ways to manage anxiety, learn and practice mindfulness strategies, and make behavioral changes in order to improve their overall quality of life. I believe that having unconditional support for your emotional well-being is key, especially during times of uncertainty, and am here to help implement lasting changes.

Welcome to your new story, where the journey of self-discovery and healing begins. Recognizing the need for support and reaching out for interventions can be challenging.

I create a safe environment where we build a strong therapeutic relationship, so you can trust the work you're doing and lean into the process.

Do you want impactful change in parts of your life, and need support to help you move in that direction? Feelings of overwhelm and uncertainty may be making it hard to know how to begin. We all need the support of others and it is okay to ask for help to feel more connected to the life, habits, and relationships that you want.

Hi, I’m so happy you’re here. While finding the right therapist can be challenging, my mission is to lead with compassion and empathy, to create a space for my clients to be authentically themselves. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, chronic illness, life transitions, trauma, or relationship issues–you are safe here.

Anxiety and stress are making it hard to fully enjoy your life. You may feel stuck in the same looping thought patterns and feel constantly "on edge." You have difficulty remembering a time where your anxiety or stress wasn't bothering you. It may feel daunting to connect with friends and family. Your personal faith may struggle. It can feel really lonely and isolating to experience anxiety. It can feel like no one really understands you. You want to be able to enjoy your life again. You don't want to be stuck any more!

If you've been experiencing increased stress or anxiety, and need support, you've come to the right place. I use evidence-based techniques, to help my clients use and build upon their strengths to improve their coping. My specialties include anxiety, OCD, PTSD, depression, chronic pain, life changes/transitions, insomnia, and stress for high performers. I also enjoy working with couples in order to foster communication and enhance relationship satisfaction. Additionally, I have training in neuropsychology and work with older adults and families coping with cognitive changes and dementia.

I imagine you landed on my page because there is something in your life making you feel stuck. I'm here to tell you that you do not need to do this alone. I help children, adolescents, young adults, and parents obtain a “light mind”, so they can get unstuck and live the life they deserve. Some of my areas of support include anxiety, depression, OCD, family conflict, and parent practices. I provide individual therapy, parent consultation, and Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) coaching.

I specialize in complex trauma, phobias/anxiety, and chronic illness for adults and teens. Many of my clients are recovering from developmental trauma, learning to soothe overactive nervous systems, and hoping to identify and express their needs in a new way. My work is depth oriented, empowering, feminist, compassion focused, and client-centered. I work well with artists and creative types, perfectionists, high achievers, those who identify as highly sensitive, and those who suffer from chronic illness.

I have worked with people who have experienced trauma, depression, eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, loss, and life transitions. I work collaboratively with my clients, and am supportive and dedicated to their increased well being. My approach to therapy is to be genuine, open and honest, supportive, and curious.

Therapy can help you resolve ongoing pain, trauma, or stress, and can also help you develop skills and strategies for managing problematic situations. It can also assist you with self-exploration and growth. Whatever brings you into therapy, you've taken the first step towards empowering yourself to make a positive change. Having the opportunity to work with someone can make a difference and it's important to find someone with the experience and connection to meet your needs. In order to feel empowered to make changes in your life, establishing an authentic, genuine relationship is crucial.

Through the therapeutic process I can help you to better understand what you have been through and how to overcome your current struggles to live your fullest, best life.

These are uncertain times! You know you could use some support, that you want to feel better, maybe less anxious, so you came to this website. Congratulations on taking the first step. However, you've been scrolling the pages on this site for a while and every therapist is beginning to look the same, and every blurb sound alike. It's hard to find a therapist, especially if you don't have a personal referral from a friend or colleague. Let's talk on the phone for 10 mins to figure out what you're looking for right now, see if we're a good fit and discuss how I can help.

My foremost goal in working with clients is assisting them to have greater self-awareness, insight into what makes them tick and what troubles them. I have had great joy in providing psychodynamic psychotherapy for many individuals and couples over the years, and am committed to striving towards a positive outcome for each.

Are you ready to make changes in your life and relationships? I work with individuals, couples and families in order to help them lead more fulfilling lives. Clients of mine are often looking for support in developing effective coping skills to manage difficult emotions/urges, strategies for improving communication/connection and ways to reduce conflict/turmoil in their lives.

For many people life can go through periods of intense difficulty, pain and suffering, and it can feel overwhelming. My practice focuses on understanding these feelings with the hope of decreasing the distress. I work collaboratively with my clients believing they contain all the wisdom they need to heal and that together we will help you access it. I work and am trained in several models; psychodynamic, internal family systems, attachment theory and emotionally focused therapy.

I became a psychotherapist because I wanted to be "that someone" I always wished I had in my life. Someone who believes in you when you lose hope in yourself, and get stuck in what seems like perpetual darkness. I feel that my job is to help shed the first stream of light into the darkness, so together, we can see the bigger picture. Collaboratively, we'll explore your hopes, dreams, and goals. I will help you navigate, and walk by your side, until you reach them, or you are confident enough to do it alone.
