EMMA THOMSON, ASW
THERAPIST | ASW #124592
Hi I'm Emma,
I hold a Master's degree in Social Welfare with a concentration in Mental Health from UCLA and a BA in Psychology & Economics from UC Santa Cruz. During my studies, I trained at a wellness center in Downtown LA and Restore Counseling Center in Central LA, where I honed my therapeutic skills. In my practice, I integrate various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), ACT, DBT, and mindfulness, to create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals. I believe that successful therapy requires targeted, individualized care based on your specific needs.
Understanding that starting therapy can feel uncertain one of my many goals in working with you is to make the process as supportive and meaningful for you as possible. I am here to offer you an empathetic, non-judgmental space where you can openly share your experiences and work through your journey together. I hope to work with you!
"Healing is not about fixing what's broken, but about embracing and understanding every part of who you are."
