Is your young child tantruming, not listening, anxious or withdrawn? My goal is to help you address these issues by deeply connecting and attuning to your child. I will work with you and your child simultaneously, guiding you through difficult moments with them so you feel equipped and confident as a parent. My specialty is treating young children, specifically those who are 0-7 years old.

Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, marital issues, parenting concerns, or anything else--you should know that there is a better way to manage your life. Supporting mothers throughout the stages of motherhood is something I hold close to my heart. I am also extremely passionate about my work with teen girls, especially those who struggle with academic pressures. I facilitate two girls' group each week that focuses on friendships, self-esteem, self-care, and coping skills for middle and high school.

Hi, I am Dr.Yula Koba, a licensed clinical psychologist. I specialize in working with individuals and couples. I have almost 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy and counseling in different settings. I am highly experienced and trained in working with trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, and relational issues. I have a lot of experience working with couples and families. My style is warm, non-judgmental, and direct. I believe that together we can change the way you think, interact, and relate to others and yourself. I use different modalities that are always tailored to your needs and goals.

I strive to create safe space where clients can feel comfortable examining their strengths and challenges. I see myself as a guide on this journey of self-discovery, and I believe it's important to look together at the multiple contexts that affect us as individuals, from our family backgrounds to the meanings that we attach to our experiences in order to find our authenticity. I use an individualized approach grounded in family systems to guide clients on their journeys of self-exploration, weaving mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques into sessions.

If you are ready to create meaningful change in your life, your mood, or your relationships, call or email me. I get to know my clients and help them identify and use the tools they need to tackle their struggles. I will stand beside you and help you make the change in your life, your mood, and your relationships that you want and need. My office is across the street from the beach which allows me to offer Walk & Talk sessions by the beach in addition to office appointments.

My group practice provides services for families of children and teens to help mitigate the negative impact of social isolation, anxiety, and disconnectedness. We provide tools for parents to immediately implement at home while also working one on one with the child/teen to teach emotional regulation, coping mechanisms, social connectedness, and an overall safe space to process feelings. We work mostly with kids, preteens, teens, and young adults.

Does your child have frequent angry outbursts, problems getting along with peers, anxiety and worry, or difficulty focusing in school? Are you feeling overwhelmed with family problems and do not know how to fix what is wrong? Have you recently had baby and are struggling with depression, anxiety or just having difficulty adjusting to parenthood?

Seeking out therapy and finding the right therapist can feel daunting, frustrating, and extremely vulnerable. Knowing this, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and collaborative relationship with my clients. I want my clients to know they are not alone in their struggles. I not only understand and validate but also help empower them to create both emotional and behavioral changes that will lead to a happier and more fulfilling life. My goal is to have my client become more self-aware, identify and implement their strengths, and have tools they can apply outside of the therapy room.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have been practicing for over 17 years. Specializing in working with children, adolescents, and families from primarily a solution-focused, cognitive behavioral approach, I offer a variety of interventions best matched to fit my client's individual needs. Adept in working with childhood disorders, trauma experiences, grief and loss, anger management, and parenting issues, I strive to look at the "whole picture" and incorporate collaterals and family members, as needed.

If you're navigating the unique challenges of pregnancy, childbirth, the postpartum period or the parenting and family stages thereafter, I am here to support you. Deeply knowing the joys and struggles that come with parenthood, I know it is a big, important, life changing role. One that I know you want to show up to with as much wholeness, love and emotional health as possible. And sometimes challenges point you to where you need support so that you can into step into that next level of emotional health you know will serve you and your family.

Are you feeling anxious or depressed as a result of infertility or pregnancy loss? Is your confidence or relationship suffering due to the stressors of new parenthood? If you are struggling during your transition into parenthood, connecting with a perinatal therapist can help. I can help you improve how you handle stress and setbacks, develop your confidence and skills, and become a more connected partner and parent.

I am a psychologist specializing in helping adults and older adolescents who are experiencing distress, specifically anxiety or depression. Conceptualizing from an attachment and psychodynamic perspective, I believe that short- or long-term therapy can increase an individual’s awareness of the issues that are affecting one’s goals, decisions, actions, and relationships.

Welcome! As a licensed psychologist, certified perinatal mental health provider, and specialist in infant/early childhood mental health, I enjoy helping families and children from birth through the elementary school years. I specialize in parent-child relational challenges, anxiety, behavior problems, postpartum depression/anxiety/adjustment, and testing and evaluation.

Do anxiety, fear, guilt, shame, or anger limit you from relating and living fully? Are you facing adversity, at a crossroads, or worried about yourself or a loved one? Are you feeling disconnected, dissatisfied, and stuck? Do you need individual, couples, or family therapy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, know that you are not alone. With courage, compassion, and curiosity, you can adapt, transform, and overcome the circumstances that prevent you from living your best life.

Congratulations on deciding to seek support. What a great step toward meeting your health and relationship goals! Psychotherapy can help you feel more calm, joyful and connected to others, while gaining greater understanding of your inner self and healing psychic wounds.  You deserve to be heard, encouraged to express yourself, connect, grow and self actualize. Therapy can be difficult work; however, you will quickly see that relief and clarity are within your reach. With my guidance, you will make your own discoveries and decisions and maintain control over your process, keeping it exciting, safe and appropriate for you.

Beginning therapy is a positive step towards changing the way life is experienced. Someone may have challenges in relationships, may have experienced trauma, may not feel a sense of purpose, may feel sadness or fear. It is healing to be seen, heard and accepted and this is what I offer. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship built on trust and safety. Working with clients to explore thoughts, feelings and life experiences paves the way for healing, growth and a chance to live life more authentically. Self-compassion and vulnerability can lead to more connection with oneself and others while feeling less alone in the world.

Hi, I'm Magda! I am a culturally-sensitive Latina therapist and really love what I do. I am ready to help you work through the underlying stuff that may be holding you back from living the life you dream. Life can sometimes feel hard and overwhelming, but when we practice connecting and investing in ourselves, a world of possibilities naturally opens up. I'm passionate about helping you explore this space on a deeper level to provide a greater understanding about present issues. Together, we can shine a light on a world of possibilities. I work with adolescents, individual adults, couples, and families.

I'm here to listen and help, daytime, evenings after work, and Saturdays. I treat teens, adults, couples, and families. I offer counseling and life-coaching for ordinary everyday challenges, and therapy for relationship problems, addiction issues, anxiety, depression, or a traumatic experience. I also treat those having difficulty coping with a crisis, a stressful life transition, or a painful loss due to a break-up, divorce, or death. You'll find comfort to explore these aspects and identify solutions that help you feel better, develop greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and healthier relationships.

Congratulations on taking an important step toward living a healthier and happier life. I believe everyone has the potential to achieve all they desire but sometimes different situations prevent us from accomplishing our goals. Experiencing many challenges and overcoming obstacles have taught me that life is a complicated yet fascinating adventure and having the right tools along the way could ease the journey. In my practice I provide support and guidance to my clients and help them learn new strategies to overcome hurdles, achieve their goals, and find their paths.
