Jennifer Kalusa, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jennifer!

I specialize in working with adults navigating traumatic experiences, relationships, self-discovery, and complex emotions. I believe each person has within them what they need to heal and to have emotional health and healthy relationships.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing the impact of trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges.

My approach

I use a trauma-informed approach to support individuals stuck because of past trauma. I use parts work and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help clients heal and move toward experiencing secure, meaningful connection.

My communication style

I aim to provide a caring, respectful, safe space for each client as they learn about themselves and grow. I believe that experiencing acceptance as you are is an important part of the therapeutic experience, and I consider it an honor to be invited into your story and journey.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist was inspired by my own transformative experience in therapy. Through my growth and healing, I felt a deep desire to help others navigate their paths to wholeness and fulfillment in their lives and relationships.

My goals for you

I work collaboratively with clients to establish personalized goals that align with their unique needs and preferences.

Our first session

In our initial session, I aim to create a comfortable environment where you can share a bit about yourself. I'll also begin to understand your reasons for seeking therapy and your goals for our work together.
