At The Wellness Collective, we work with kids, teens, young adults, parents, and families across the South Bay and via telehealth throughout California. Our clients are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity questions, life transitions, relationship struggles, or the sense that something just isn't working. Our team offers individual, family, and group therapies, parenting consultation, and psychological testing. With warmth, depth, and real clinical skill, we help clients build resilience and feel more grounded, more connected, and more themselves.
Our Team
I've been doing this work for over 27 years, and connecting with people is still my favorite thing to do. I work with teenagers who are struggling, young adults figuring out who they are, and adults navigating life's messier chapters — transitions, relationships, family dynamics, and the quiet question of "am I living the life I want?"
My approach is warm, curious, and without judgment. I draw from psychodynamic, DBT, and strengths-based frameworks, tailoring each session to you. I also run process groups and lead The Wellness Collective — a team of eight clinicians in Hermosa Beach.
I'd love to help you feel like yourself again.

I'm Dr. Sophia Norman, a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in neurodivergent and trauma affirming therapy and psychological assessment. I work with adults, teens, college students, and graduate students navigating ADHD, autism/ASD, AuDHD, anxiety, trauma, burnout, perfectionism, and relationship or attachment concerns. I believe healing happens within a relationship built on trust, curiosity, humility, and genuine connection—one where your identities, experiences, and ways of moving through the world are seen and valued.

Hi and welcome! Are you a 20-something overwhelmed with all the uncertainty that comes with this phase of life? Maybe you're someone who is functioning day-to-day, but sick of feeling so anxious all the time. Maybe you're navigating neurodivergence in a neuro-normative world. Maybe your child is struggling to find their place in middle or high school. Maybe you're not even sure what you need yet - you just know you or your family could use a little support.

Are you tired of waiting for things to finally feel okay? Maybe you're in your twenties and adulthood feels nothing like you expected, with more pressure, more uncertainty, and fewer answers than you'd hoped. Or you're an older adult facing a transition you didn't see coming, whether that's a career shift, a loss, or simply feeling like you've lost your footing. Perhaps you're a parent noticing your child is struggling, with big feelings, friendships, or just getting through the school day.
Therapy is a space to slow down, sort through it, and start moving in a direction that actually feels like yours.

I believe therapy works best when there’s a strong foundation of trust and I focus on building a warm, genuine connection with each client. My style is collaborative, thoughtful, and I approach treatment with care and respect. My aim is to help adults and teens explore not only the challenges they’re facing but also their unique strengths and sources of resilience in the face of those challenges.

Are you in your twenties, feeling overwhelmed by uncertainty and the transition into adulthood? Or maybe you’re an older adult navigating a major life change, loss, or grief? Are you and your partner feeling disconnected, stuck in patterns of conflict, or struggling to communicate effectively? Is your child struggling with big emotions, social challenges, or the pressures of school? Life’s transitions can be difficult, but you don’t have to face them alone.
