Find therapists in Laguna Niguel

Jason Olin

Most of my clients are smart, creative and savvy professionals, and they usually have a pretty good sense of why they're seeking help. It may be due to relationship challenges. It may due to managing ADHD, depression or anxiety. It may be due to managing the pressures of work or of family. What my clients have in common is the desire to work closely on their challenges, and the ability to make a connection with their therapist, in this case, me!

Emily Echeverria

Many of my clients learned to be independent, responsible, and hardworking at young ages, traits that have helped them be successful at school and work, but have made it difficult to ask for help, set boundaries, rest, and lean into joy. Along with anxiety, clients frequently struggle with guilt, low self-esteem, a need to be perfect, and often have insecure attachment styles in relationships. I also provide family therapy, friendship therapy, and psychological evals for immigration cases.

Do you long for deeper connection, more clarity and peace. Or have you felt the tension of struggle in satisfaction of your relationships (friendships, romantic relationships or family of origin), or your relationship with your body, food or exercise? I want to help you thrive in your relationships, body and life.

I work psychoanalytically with patients who wish to more deeply explore and understand their internal world. Together we can create language for hidden, blocked, 'unthinkable' thoughts; name and reflect on unconscious conflicts; work through dreams; and build resilience.

I’ve had the privilege of connecting with children, teens, adults, couples, and families of various socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. Together, we’ve navigated challenges related to relationship stress, life transitions, self-worth, trauma, and identity, reflected through a variety of symptoms and difficulties.

Veronica Navarro

I have worked with adults and families facing life transitions, depression, domestic violence, anxiety, relationship issues, and acculturation challenges. I also help children and teens navigate peer pressure, self-esteem, and transitions. I love witnessing clients’ “aha moments” when they recognize their strengths and resilience. Everyone is an expert in their own life, and being part of your journey is a privilege.

Kara London

Hello dear one. While I may not yet know your journey, I’m glad we are crossing paths. Healing is not meant to be done alone. Each of us will face anxiety, loss, disruption, disconnection, illness… these are natural to the human condition. As a world community, the unraveling is at our door: climate change, wars, and rampant inequality. In exploring these challenges, we will tap into the wells of knowledge, tools, and wisdom that reside within us and the Earth, as collaborators in your healing.

I believe in an integrative and holistic approach to therapy. My focus is on working with individuals as well as families and couples to improve relational dynamics and achieve emotional wellness for everyday functioning.

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. My speciality is supporting people with anxiety and ADHD, supporting the LGBTQ+ community, and supporting people that are navigating stress. My approach to therapy is to provide a safe and supportive space. I am available to see clients through telehealth.

In the private telehealth setting, with a nonjudgmental and compassionate approach, we can explore the sources of your stress, change destructive behaviors, and the root of thought patterns, relationship interactions, and overall life improvement together.

Newport Academy Treatment Program

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.
