Larissa Adler is a licensed marriage and family therapist. She holds a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University with an emphasis in marriage and family therapy. She worked in a variety of community mental health settings, high schools and elementary schools before opening a private practice in 2013.

Therapy is conducted with the belief that you are the expert in your life.

Therapy with Larissa is client centered and adheres to an eclectic style drawing upon Narrative based practices with a blend of Somatic and Cognitive Behavioral therapy. No two people are alike and therefore it is important that the approach offered during sessions fits with each person’s individual nature. Sessions with Larissa have been described as warm, supportive and interactive.

We cannot control what happens to us. We can only control how we respond.

The underlying goal of every session is to gain more control over challenges and to be able to move through life in more preferable ways.

Larissa believes it is an honor to collaborate with you in uncovering your own expertise, strengths and desires.
