Toxic Relationship recovery in Los Angeles CA
You survived so you can learn to love again
Love shouldn't make you feel like you're walking on eggshells or constantly bracing for the next explosion. You shouldn't have to manage someone else's emotions just to keep yourself safe. If you find yourself constantly second-guessing your reality, apologizing for things that aren't your fault, or feeling like nothing you do is ever good enough, you may need some support, and we’re here to help.
Maybe your partner’s anger feels unpredictable and scary. Perhaps they tell you they love you one moment and tear you down the next, leaving you confused about what's real. You might be making excuses for their behavior, minimizing the harm, or even blaming yourself for their reactions. They could be isolating you from friends and family, controlling your money, or making you feel like you can't trust your own perception. The person who's supposed to love you most might be the one making you feel smallest.
You know something is wrong, but leaving feels impossible, or maybe you’ve physically left, but they continue to live in your mind rent-free. Maybe you're worried about their threats, afraid of being alone, or holding onto hope that they'll change back into the person you fell in love with. You might feel ashamed that you're in this situation, or exhausted from explaining away their behavior to people who don't understand. The constant chaos has become your normal, and you've forgotten what peace actually feels like.
You don't have to carry this alone anymore. Let's work together to help you feel safe, connected, and alive in your body and relationships again. You deserve to feel loved and empowered- let's make it happen.

What will Toxic Relationship recovery be like?
Therapy for toxic relationships isn't about forcing you to leave or to begin dating again before you're ready. It's about helping you see your situation clearly, understand the patterns at play, and recognize that what's happening to you was not your fault. We'll work together to help you trust your own perceptions again and develop a safety plan that protects you.
Using trauma-informed approaches grounded in neuroscience, we'll explore how the relationship affected your mental health and sense of self. You'll learn to identify narcissistic abuse, manipulation tactics, set boundaries (even small ones to start), and reconnect with the parts of yourself that got lost in the relationship.
Whether you’ve already left or are contemplating leaving the relationship, we'll help you heal from the psychological wounds, rebuild your self-worth, and learn to recognize red flags so you don't get trapped again. Recovery is possible, and you don't have to do it alone. We'll support you wherever you are in your journey.
You are not responsible for fixing, changing, or managing another person's behavior. You are not too sensitive, too dramatic, or asking for too much when you expect to be treated with respect. What's happening to you is real, your feelings are valid, and you deserve so much better.
If you're tired of feeling scared in relationships, if you want to reclaim your sense of self, if you're ready to explore what safety and healthy love actually look like- then reach out today. You don't have to have all the answers or a perfect exit plan. You just have to take the first step. Book a consultation and let's start building the safe, peaceful life you deserve.
