Therapy office

Catarsys Family Counseling

We are a Professional Corporation of Marriage and Family Therapists and Clinical Social Workers who provide therapy to individuals, families and couples.

Our services are delivered either in person, via telehealth-video, or a combination of both. We have two locations for in person services conveniently located in the cities of La Mirada and La Palma.

Our La Mirada office is equipped with a play/art room for Children to find a safe and comfortable space to be able to process their emotions and learn the skills needed for a more functional life.

A cozy corner in a room with a light gray armchair with a matching pillow, next to a white side table with two woven baskets in drawers, a potted white orchid, and some decorative jars. The wall behind has a clock showing 2:14, a framed certificate, an artistic wall hanging, and two framed diplomas.
Hallway with white walls, wooden floor, and framed abstract art. A small black table holds a large flower arrangement with white, purple, and green flowers, and a white object on the floor near the wall.

Approaches include:

A collection of white tiles and circles with words related to trauma, abuse, and mental health, with a glass heart-shaped dish containing red flowers and pins in the center.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around’
