Now Welcoming New Clients

Offering a range of holistic, trauma-informed services to support healing and growth. Services include individual therapy, EMDR, child and family therapy, professional consultation, and supervision.

  • Designed to address a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns, individual therapy offers structured support for clients facing anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, or relational stressors. Treatment is collaborative and personalized, drawing from evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, cognitive strategies, and mindfulness-based techniques. Learn More

  • Therapy for children, teens, and families navigating emotional, behavioral, or relationship challenges. Sessions may include child-centered play therapy, parenting support, and family counseling focused on improving communication, building emotional regulation skills, and strengthening family connection.

  • A trauma-informed approach for processing painful memories, reducing anxiety, and releasing stuck emotional patterns. EMDR supports healing by helping the brain reprocess overwhelming experiences in a safe, structured way. Sessions are offered as part of weekly therapy, adjunct support alongside another therapist, or as extended EMDR intensives.

  • Intensive EMDR involves focused 2-hour sessions designed for deep, uninterrupted healing. This extended format allows for faster progress in addressing trauma, anxiety, or other distressing experiences—often achieving in days what may take months in weekly therapy. Ideal for those seeking immediate relief or more time to focus on healing. Learn More

  • Adjunct EMDR provides focused EMDR therapy to support work already being done with a primary therapist. This collaborative approach targets specific trauma, blocks, or patterns, offering deeper processing without replacing the existing therapeutic relationship. Ideal for clients seeking specialized trauma support alongside ongoing therapy. Learn More

Catherine Alvarado, LMFT

owner & clinical supervisor

Hello!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Certified EMDR Therapist, EMDR Consultant-in-Training (CIT), and Clinical Supervisor. My work focuses on helping adults, teens, and children heal from anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions through holistic, integrative care rooted in attunement and collaboration.

In addition to weekly individual therapy, I offer EMDR intensives, adjunct EMDR support, and clinical consultation for therapists pursuing trauma-informed, attachment-focused care. I also provide supervision for associate clinicians working in private practice.

I’m the co-owner of EUNOIA Wellness Studio in Redondo Beach—a calm, thoughtfully designed space for healing. In-person sessions are offered at the studio, alongside telehealth sessions for clients located anywhere in California.
