My clients are women, men, and nonbinary people. They successfully “put one foot in front of the other” to get through life, but feel constantly on edge or numb. I love working with helpers. If you tend to have room in your day and your life for everyone but yourself, and you want to know why you do that and HOW TO STOP IT (ok...realistically, do it less often, you're still going to be a caring and generous person after all), I'm the therapist for you.

Specializing in trauma recovery, major life transitions, LGBTQ+ experiences, and the beautiful messiness of relationships, I believe therapy should feel like both a warm hug and a creative breakthrough. Whether we’re untangling generational patterns, embracing self-discovery, or turning setbacks into comebacks, our work together will be a dynamic mix of reflection, empowerment, and maybe even some unexpected “aha” moments.
Hi! My name is Talia Kokonian, I am currently a therapist intern, pursuing my master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. Life moments can be challenging and it can be difficult to carry the stress on our own. As someone who has experience working with many populations, such as the LGBTQ+ and Latino/x populations, along with people navigating stress and ADHD. Additionally, I am supervised by Dr. Pamela Reeves and I am available to see clients through telehealth.
I worked with LGBTQ+ individuals facing body dysmorphia, anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, and relationship challenges. These experiences deepened my understanding of the unique barriers they encounter and their impact on mental well-being.Affirming language and gender-affirming care were essential in addressing body dysmorphia and self-esteem issues. Anxiety and depression were often linked to discrimination and rejection, highlighting the n

At Newport Academy, we address the root causes of self-destructive behaviors, not just the symptoms. We guide teens and their families to achieve long-term, sustainable healing by treating the underlying issues—such as trauma, depression, and anxiety—that catalyze substance abuse, eating disorders, and other co-occurring disorders. Incorporating clinical, experiential, and holistic modalities, our gender-specific treatment is family-focused and results-oriented.
I am a therapist with a special interest in trauma, anxiety, EMDR, life transitions, self-esteem, mindfulness-based techniques, and acceptance and commitment therapy. My approach is rooted in the belief that people are inherently resourceful, creative, and whole. Please feel free to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation call with me.
Are you an adult struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, addiction, anxiety, or major life changes ? There comes a time when we need some help from a licensed professional to help cope with many of life’s challenges. Life can be overwhelming and sometimes even exhausting, but we’re here to guide you through any obstacles you may face.
Divorce can feel like make you feel like your life is out of control; like someone or some thing picked up the snow globe of your life and shook it. Now all the pieces are flying around and everything feels overwhelming, uncertain. You don’t know how to put things back together again and are maybe not even sure you really want to. It can feel like you will never be happy again. Divorce is hard and often it's really shitty.
I primarily work with individuals and couples who have highly stressful careers that are ready to do what's necessary to experience real and lasting change. Together we'll face what's felt too much, explore the impact and the meanings made of the past while building a future centered around freedom, fulfillment and joy.

In this increasingly “good vibes only” culture, do you feel that you need to hide parts of yourself in order to fit in or be included in the group? Do you feel like you’re either too much or not enough? Like you’re the black sheep in your family or with your friends? You may have been thrown into an adult role as a child, having to emotionally care for your parent or caregiver, at the expense of your own emotional development, growth, or even safety. If this sounds familiar, there is hope.
Are you finding yourself in the same place over and over again? Maybe it’s a string of bad relationships, keeping a job or difficulty in school. Maybe life has taken you through trauma, the pain and effects of which you are still experiencing today. I can help you find the path that will lead to success rather than repeated frustration and discouragement. If you are tired of the struggle and the pain of trauma I can help you find hope and healing.
My clients are intelligent, insightful, caring, and generous people who feel turned upside down in their relationships. Some are in marriages that stopped working a long time ago and they want to make things better. Some have betrayed themselves and their loved ones with sexual behaviors that even they don't understand. And some are the partners of sex addicts, trying to figure out whether or not to work it out. My clients are amazing, compassionate people who want the best life they can have!

Are you struggling to cope with life transitions? Many of us are experiencing significant anxiety due to changing work environments, parenting children who aren’t in school or attempting to navigate the changing social conditions. Are you feeling stressed by a traumatic event? Perhaps you are experiencing a divorce, have family conflicts or are alone as an empty nester. These circumstances can impact your connection with family, colleagues, and most importantly, the relationship with yourself.
