Barbara Jaurequi Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT, MAC
Sometimes receiving in-person therapy is impossible because of scheduling conflicts, distance or other reasons. Being able to correspond with your therapist in a written format is a wonderful alternative to in-person therapy and it has unique advantages. For example, you will have a record of what was covered in each therapy session that you can refer to after and between sessions. This will help you remain accountable and on track to achieve your therapy goals. If getting to therapy appointments is difficult, online therapy may be worth exploring. Call me and we can discuss whether online therapy would be right for you!

Katie Blake
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples who are feeling the lasting effects of past trauma and are ready to begin the healing process and move forward. With more than 12 years of experience treating complex trauma (C-PTSD), I bring extensive knowledge and care to this work. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). I consider both approaches to be highly effective in addressing and resolving trauma.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Throughout our work together, I offer compassion, guidance, and steady support.

Santa Monica combines proximity to the entertainment industry with a strong wellness culture, creating demand for therapists who specialize in performance anxiety, the pressures of creative and entertainment careers, identity, and the particular stresses of living adjacent to fame and public scrutiny. The area's affluent demographic and beach lifestyle coexist with significant rates of anxiety, eating concerns, and relationship distress, and the Westside has a notably high density of experienced therapists relative to its size. Providence Saint John's Health Center and UCLA Health provide institutional mental health anchors for the Westside community. Many Santa Monica therapists also serve clients from Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and the broader Westside corridor.
