Therapist in Pasadena, California,
Mariia Sen, LMFT

I’m open to see clients from all walks of life but I’m especially passionate about helping recent immigrants and people who are in transition or just moved to Los Angeles. If you experience lack of stability in life and with your feelings, if you struggle to understand cultural messages or people around you do not hesitate to ask for help! I provide therapy in English, Ukrainian and Russian and I would be happy to create a warm and compassionate space for you to make sense of your experiences and grow as a person.

I have extensive training in complex trauma and PTSD and I make sure that clients of all cultures and sexual orientations feel safe and empowered in therapy. I believe that all people are born with a great potential for growth, however our relationships can either bring out that potential or hinder it. Together we will explore your strengths and areas that you need to develop in order to reach your goals and improve quality of your life.

I believe that client is an expert and can decide how long therapy has to continue. I choose an orientation and techniques based on each individual and their requests in therapy. I use Jungian techniques to work with dreams and to help client make difficult decisions in life. I am open to use short-term solution-focused approach if that’s what is working for a client at the moment. I genuinely care about each client and honor what happens in therapy room.
