Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

My services include individual and relational counseling for adult individuals and couples and occasionally I work with teens. I have an extensive background working with individuals who have survived unwanted sexual experiences and other forms of trauma. This extensive background now includes years of training and experience with EMDR, helping with desensitization and reprocessing for those in need of healing from trauma, phobias, and distressing memories (including PTSD). Not only am I poly-curious and non-monogamy friendly, but I also enjoy working with folks who identify as kinky and folks who are LGBTQIA. Folks have called me an ally, and one of my previous teen trans clients informed me that “being an ally only means that one cares.” My reply was that makes my week and I will not forget your shared words.

My fees are currently discounted due to the pandemic as follows: Individuals $75 and couples $100. I just added a group at therapyDen.com with the per group member fee of $25 per 90min group session, and the group is listed as on-going and meeting at 12pm on Saturdays at my private practice suite group room.

We facilitate relationship choice in a Voice Dialogue context, where you explore and embrace the needs of all your inner voices, analyze and resolve toxicities in the bonding patterns among you and your lovers.

We also teach tantric practices for polyamorous groups.

We support and facilitate all relationship choices and help you access your many inner voices’ needs, neutral witness and CENTER that embraces all your subselves. We assist you and your lovers and potential lovers in analyzing your bonding patterns with each other so you can make discerning decisions after sharing your vulnerabilities and seeing how you and each of your partners exhibit each others’ lesser-developed inner voices. We do phone counseling and run the Harbin Hot Springs California Polyamory conferences.

I work and have experience with a wide variety of situations and life issues; including but not limited to depression, anxiety, transitions, burnout, relationship dynamics, and more. Specialties of mine include premarital counseling, young adult/college age concerns & transitions, EMDR, grief, consensual non monogamy, and non traditional relationships.

I believe in the work I do and the healing power of therapy. I also understand how important it is to be truly understood by your therapist and the problem we face with the lack of representation in the field for poly friendly professionals. I fully support couples whether they are monogamous or non monogamous. If there is something my client is experience that I am not experienced in, I do my best to further my education and make sure that my practice is a safe space and all are welcomed.

Professional specialties and skills:

Sensory Neurodivergence: As someone who has spent their life discovering their neurodivergence and sensory needs and learning to cope in ways that are most helpful to me, I understand that these discoveries can take time and patience. I’m here to help you discover and honor your own unique constellation of strengths and differences, and how best to navigate a world that isn’t built for us.

Gender Expression Care: A 2023 Kasier study showed that Gender Expression Care, aka learning how to dress and express oneself through hair, clothing, makeup, etc, is one of the missing pieces in transgender care currently. As the founder of a local community closet, I had the opportunity to witness radical gender euphoria in person many times in a way that truly transformed the work I do as a counselor. Helping people discover their personal style and explore what changes would help them to feel the most like themselves is something I am truly passionate about. Whether it be brainstorming in the therapy space or experiential therapy where we search for affirming gender expression at your store of choice, I am honored to help guide you as you seek the most authentic and affirmed version of yourself.

Consensual Non-Monagamy: Have you struggled to find a clinician who is more than just “friendly” towards your relationships, sexuality, or lifestyle? Who doesn’t put normative relationship ideals upon your unique connections? I both have personal and professional experience with consensual non-monogamy, and am happy to discuss all of the facets of your life with you, monogamous or not!

Language(s) spoken: English, some proficiency in French

Populations served: Adolescents and adults who are neurodivergent, queer, trans/gender expansive, desiring increased authenticity and self-expression. Those with trauma, related or unrelated to their identities.

I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on personality development, relational dynamics, and psychological growth. I work with adults navigating anxiety, interpersonal strain, and meaningful shifts in their personal or relational lives—including those in polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships. My approach is collaborative and grounded in honest dialogue, helping clients clarify who they are, deepen their self-understanding, and strengthen the way they show up in relationship to others.

Languages spoken: English

Populations served: Adults (18+), individuals and couples, LGBTQIA+ inclusive

20 years experience helping people get along. Open to all alternative lifestyles. I look forward to hearing from you! - Does online consultation - Does phone consultation

I am a psychotherapist in the South Bay with a specialty focus on alternative lifestyles–including polyamory, swinging, and kink/BDSM involvement. I have helped many individuals and couples navigate these lifestyle choices, and I realize how important it is to talk to someone who is open to non-monogamous lifestyles and who is open-minded in general. I know how important it is not to feel judged for the lifestyle you are leading even if it goes against prevailing social norms. By contrast, I aim to listen closely to what YOU are bringing in: what is strong in your life and where you may be struggling or having emotional pain.

It is difficult to start a course of therapy. But if you are in emotional pain, it can feel like moods and issues are running your life rather than you doing so. This can leave you feeling lost, confused, and distressed. When you are under this dark cloud, it can be very helpful to talk to an objective outsider in a safe, confidential, and professional yet intimate setting. My goal is to work together to recognize hindrances and unhelpful patterns and to accentuate personal strengths in order to regain a sense of agency and equanimity in your life.

I have more than 15 years experience in the mental health field. I have been trained in Positive Psychology, Group therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness coping skills. These methods can help alleviate symptoms of depression or anxiety and address debilitating aspects of trauma. For more information, see www.ednawallace.com.

Per my website, I charge $220 for a couples session (1 hour) and $180 for an individual session (50 minutes). I am not on any insurance panels, but you can submit my super bill to your insurance if they offer out-of-network provider benefits. In addition, I have some sliding scale spots.

I look forward to working with you!
