Getting to know Serat Rana

The provider is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and is currently working under the supervision of a licensed practitioner. Their current employer is HOPE Therapy Group Los Angeles. Hi there, I’m Serat (she/her/hers)! I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) and a proud graduate of USC. I’m forever on a journey of self-discovery, spirituality, and savoring life’s simple joys — like naps and good food. I’m passionate about supporting children, couples, and individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and build stronger, more connected relationships. I also work with individuals experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, identity shifts, and life transitions. I offer a safe, supportive space for people of color, immigrants, and military service members, veterans, and their families — communities whose experiences are often layered and complex. **PLEASE NOTE: Serat does not provide medication management or psychiatry services. We are also out of network for Anthem.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In my work, I draw from a range of evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches to meet your unique needs. I’m trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and incorporate somatic modalities to support healing through both body and mind. I also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and multicultural counseling to guide meaningful, values-based change. At the heart of my work is a relational approach — I believe that healing happens in the context of safe, authentic connection. I work collaboratively, honoring your lived experience and empowering you to move at your own pace toward growth and wholeness. I believe true healing unfolds where hearts are deeply seen and held. And liberation blooms from the seeds of self-empowerment.
