Arielle Katz (she/her) AMFT #134469

I am a bilingual therapist with a deep passion for joining individuals as they navigate their unique journeys of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. I offer a client-centered, strengths-based approach to help you explore and transform the narratives that shape your life. My holistic practice fosters a strong mind-body connection; exploring how our bodies respond to stress, trauma, and emotions, guiding you to discover new perspectives, and tap into your inner strengths. My work integrates traditional therapeutic methods with the healing power of nature, particularly the ocean, using it as a tool to connect with your body’s sensations and promote emotional well-being and self-discovery.

In my therapeutic practice, I aim to create a safe space where all parts of you are honored, supporting you in embracing your full self. I believe that, as humans, we hold many different stories and experiences that shape our relationship with ourselves and the world around us. Together, we can explore your inner strengths and create lasting change as you move toward greater balance and empowerment. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, where creativity and curiosity help unlock new perspectives and inspire transformation.
