Dena Ehrlich, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Dena Ehrlich, Marriage and Family Therapist #150749. I approach this path in a warm and judgment-free manner, respecting each person and their one-of-a-kind journey. As a trauma-informed somatic therapist, I look forward to supporting you in deepening your life and soul purpose, and improving your relationships with others and yourself. I earned my Master's in Counseling from the California Institute of Integral Studies, which has deeply informed my holistic and integrative approach. My approach is somatic and relational, incorporating movement, imagery, parts work, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, sand tray, dream explorations, and more. I work with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship issues, depression, and anxiety. I especially enjoy supporting those interested in getting to know themselves on a deeper level. I offer a warm and gentle container. I'm an active listener who pays attention to symbols and threads in your story. I'll check things out with you to see if they are true. While I can be direct at times, I mostly provide a space for you to get to know yourself. I became a therapist because I have always been sensitive and tuned into the emotions of myself and others. I love listening to people's stories and helping them gain empathy and compassion for themselves and their lived experiences. I am drawn to being with people during challenging times and being their cheerleader as they break free from limiting beliefs and patterns. For some, having a therapeutic goal is very important; for others, they just know something feels off and would like support processing past events, current relationships, work dynamics, age-stage transitions, or simply day-to-day functioning. I am open to working with specific goals, helping you clarify them, or simply being with you and seeing how the work unfolds.
