Ms Dena Schwimmer
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
“I am a Mindfulness and Trauma trained therapist who believes in creating a collaborative space for positive change.”
About Me
I aim to create a collaborative space, helping you navigate challenges and work towards positive change. As a Mindfulness and Trauma-trained therapist, I understand how past experiences can impact your present. We can gently explore these together, using techniques like mindfulness to build inner strength. This approach helps clients understand their experiences and move forward with greater clarity and resilience.
Approach
We’ll move at a pace that feels manageable, opening a steady, respectful way to notice how past experiences shape present reactions. Sessions in Los Angeles or online are conversational and anchored in plain English, with focused practices you can try between meetings to calm the body, track patterns, and strengthen relationships or caregiving roles. I blend grounding, gentle processing, and practical planning so the work feels useful day-to-day. People dealing with trauma, relationship strains, caregiving or burnout often find this approach supportive.
