El Monte Therapists specializing in Marriage Counseling

Jillian Luz

I find that my clients come to treatment when they have arrived at a life transition- be it loss of relationship, job, death of loved one, or realization of past traumatic experiences- and are ready to process their emotions and heal. Openness to exploring your internal world, including past traumatic experiences that may be impacting your life, is integral in the work I will support you in.

My clients are adults and families with anxiety, depression, learning differences such as dyslexia and ADHD, and those who are questioning possible neurodivergence/learning differences. I also work with partners/spouses who are navigating different neurotypes, infidelity, the decision to have a family, addiction, or conflict due to differences in sexual desire or political beliefs. In my 15 years in my silver lake practice I truly have helped people in many different situations.

Heather Iannone

My LGBTQIA2S+ clients are acutely in tune with authenticity. At times, this quality can cause life to feel heavy and overwhelming. The worry, stress or fear can cause folx to feel stuck. The things that once helped, no longer work. Many of my clients have experienced depression, anxiety and trauma. Our journey together can help navigate these things and create a map for what is next.

Complex or relational trauma can show up as overwhelming emotions, depression, anxiety, or problems building or keeping relationships. It can also show up as symptoms of post traumatic stress or PTSD. Whether you need help navigating current stress, or processing and resolving problems rooted in past experiences, we can work together to build skills to manage emotions in the present while uncovering glimmers of hope to move forward through darkness toward healing.

Alejandro Romero

Many of my clients come to me frustrated with their relationships, their career, or patterns they feel stuck in, and are feeling pretty powerless. The source of their pain is often contributed to being mistreated, not feeling fully seen, heard, and acknowledged by family, peers, society, and culture. My clients have a desire for personal growth, to find connection, and to build confidence.

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.

Rebecca Spear

My clients are Individuals, couples, children and young adults seeking reconnection to their higher Self. Trauma creates “othering” experiences, with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or loss of meaning. Our youth feel angry or scared in a world flooded by information without having a filter for “what is me,” and “what is not me.” Together, we can immerse ourselves in dreamwork, sensations in the body, imagery coming forth, reconnecting to Soul and inner creativity to find our authentic nature.

Finding meaning in life, healing, becoming whole again, & thriving (not just surviving) are examples of potential goals for our time together. Within that framework, we can customize our work to meet and embrace your unique personality & needs. A couple of meaningful quotes: “You are not meant for crawling. So don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly." ~ Jalal al-Din Rumi (13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic) “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” ~ Carl Jung

Rubin Khoddam

I strive to come from a place of compassion and empathy because, as humans, we all have patterns, messages, and lessons that show up in our lives. The more conscious and mindful we can become of these patterns, the more freedom we can have from them. My goal in therapy is to utilize evidence-based treatments to help you understand these themes so that you can gain the tools, insights, and skills necessary to live the life you want.

Naomi Lutz

Do you find yourself holding back, unsure where to turn with your thoughts and emotions? Many adults I work with feel like they don’t have a safe place to share their feelings. Often, they’ve spent a long time avoiding emotions because they don’t know what to do with them. Together, we can explore those feelings in a compassionate and non-judgmental space, allowing you to make sense of your inner world and find a path forward.
