Alexander Tarrant

My clients describe me as:

Insightful, creative, non-judgmental.

Something to know about my approach is:

I have a background in the arts, and that informs a creative, collaborative style of working. I am trained in Somatic Experiencing, a body-centered approach to relieving symptoms of trauma. I have experience in addiction recovery.

Together, we will:

be curious about the patterns in your life that may or may not be working for you, and collaboratively work toward the change you are seeking.

I specialize in working with people who:

feel depressed or in despair and would like to feel more alive, people who feel anxious and overwhelmed and would like to experience relief, people who feel stuck, held back, or otherwise affected by previous trauma, and would like to feel resolved.

I became a therapist because:

Every person deserves to be seen and understood. I practice each day to support the well-being and flourishing of my clients, for the benefit of all.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

Clients may enjoy the "treehouse" cafe below my office before or after sessions, and the hiking trails across the road leading into Topanga mountains.

More about me and my practice:

In addition to working with depression, anxiety, and complex trauma, I am familiar with non-ordinary states of consciousness and can support your processing and integration of those experiences.
