TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
My background is in both psychoanalysis and neuroscience (doctorate) and I am also a Certified and Licensed Psychoanalyst. So I am able to bring both a background in research into mind/brain issues, and I am trained as a clinician. I have been working with trauma for many years, and most recently (2016) I have been working with traumatic brain injury patients (including professional athletes). I am grateful for my dual background in mind/brain, because all brain injured patients require both perspectives. In August of 2023 I published "The Complex Architecture and Healing of Traumatic Brain Injuries: Listening to The Brain" with Cambridge Scholars Publishing in the UK. This is the story (based on case histories) of the journey to find a "healing road" for all persons who have had serious disruptions in brain functioning. This is very, very challenging territory to work in. And in my experience, requires a great collaboration between doctor and patient. I am also the author of "Moon Over Seaville," the story of the hunt for a serial arsonist in Southern California (in 4 Episodes). Available everywhere under "Mystery/Thrillers." I have patients all across the country (via phone). Brain injuries can be healed!

Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My goal is to support individuals in navigating the challenges of life and promoting positive mental health. I believe that every individual has the strength and resilience within themselves to overcome difficulties, but sometimes, it can be hard to see it. That's where I come in. I use a combination of techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, ancient stoic philosophy, and Eastern wisdom to help individuals access their inner strength and resilience. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, and compassionate environment where you can feel safe to explore and work through your challenges. I believe in working together to find the best way to support your unique needs. Let's start this journey together to discover your inner strengths and build a better future.

Matthew Fishler
Psychologist, JD, PhD
We are living in unsettling times that can bring up difficult and painful feelings. Perhaps you are troubled by anxiety or sadness. Perhaps you are feeling increased stress at work, in relationship, or have reached a crossroads in your life. These kinds of experiences can be challenging, even overwhelming. If you are struggling to navigate your life right now we can work together to build strength and create lasting inner change - to help you come home to your authentic self. Based on my background, many of my clients are writers, creative professionals, lawyers, college students/applicants, and people facing life transitions.

Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I provide services in Spanish + English.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist of Mesoamerica-Indigienous ancestry. My life exposed to community violence, trauma and intersecting oppressions has led me to the work of healing, self-discovery, exploration and ancestral healing.
I was raised in the SF Bay Area and I currently reside on the stolen lands of the Tongva peoples, colonially known as Los Angeles, California.
My lived experiences of being a person of color with intersecting identities, navigating the world and the trauma that comes with that, has led me to the practice of healing at a young age. I grew up with many years of witnessing (through family members + my community) severe mental illness, addiction, community violence, chronic suicidality, incarceration and domestic violence. Through my own stories and experiences, as a justice-oriented therapist, I aim to disrupt and dismantle these oppressive systems within myself and in my practice to make therapy a safe(r) space for folks who are targeted and made marginalized.
