Accepting over-thinkers in Los Feliz & LA
In your head. Always on. Still unsatisfied.
Constant racing thoughts or mental overdrive — overanalyzing interactions, fear of disappointed others or being understood.
I have worked for over a decade with clients to build resiliency during change and times of peace, freer from overanalyzing, calmer and more present in your body as well as your relationships, while moving from self-doubt to authentic connection.
It’s not about you working harder but you feeling better
If “just keep pushing” comes as easy as oxgyen to you but the idea of slowing down or taking your foot of the gas is terrifying. I can help you create a new breaking system that allows you to live with high intensity AND the ability to pause without fear, regret or confusion.

Hi, I’m Amelia, Over-thinkers in Los Feliz & Los Angeles *
You ran the marathon, started and/or sold the business, got the job, had the children and it just does not feel like you thought it would. You may have realized that your success has come at a cost higher than your time and energy, your health, your mental wellness and maybe even your relationships. I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California, working online with individual clients and couples around the world. My approach blends evidence-based methods such as Gottman therapy with somatic and mindfulness tools.
My approach
Collaborative
We work together as a team: you set the goals and I help guide the path.
Evidence-based
I draw on approaches that are proven to work.
Action-oriented
You’ll leave each session with practical tools you can use, not just insights.
Compassionate but direct
I’ll support you when it feels heavy and challenge you when it’s needed.
Tailored to you
No cookie-cutter therapy. Your story, your pace, your needs.
Whole-person focus
We consider both mind and body, because they’re deeply connected.
Future-facing
It’s not only about where you’ve been, but also about creating the life you want.

Let’s cut through the noise
-
Never Basic
As a second-generation “spiritual/wellness type,” not much fazes me and I have a strong bs detector for fluffy, consumer-driven, pseudo-spiritual advice. While I’m deeply spiritual and holistic at heart, clients value my grounded, practical approach.
-
Deeply Relational
We are wounded in relationship, and we heal in relationship. I believe one solid connection can transform how someone experiences themselves. I’m a “relationship type,” and clients value my warmth.
-
Whole Body Health
I focus on holistic wellness, addressing the interconnected aspects of physical, mental, and emotional health. Through personalized practices, I help clients achieve tailored balance and well-being.
-
Fully Remote
Between traffic, travel, and parenthood, modern life is busy. Remote therapy means you can show up from anywhere, in the comfort of your own space, with the same presence and connection you’d expect in person.
