Therapy For Adults, Teens & Couples In Hermosa Beach

  • At Coastal Therapy and Wellness, we provide therapy in Seal Beach for adults, teens, and couples navigating anxiety, relationship stress, life transitions, and more.

  • Others come in during a more difficult season, when things feel heavier or harder to manage alone.
  • Either way, therapy is a space to slow down, understand what’s going on, and start making meaningful shifts.
  • We’re here to help you move forward with clarity, support, and real tools that actually work.

Our Therapeutic Approach

Therapy with us is not one-size-fits-all.

We use a blend of evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs, while also addressing deeper patterns and the mind-body connection.

Our work may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapy, psychodynamic approaches, and trauma-informed care.

We also integrate feedback-informed treatment, meaning your progress and experience actively shape how we work together.

Sessions are structured enough to create progress, but flexible enough to meet you where you are.

You’ll gain practical tools, deeper insight, and support that actually helps you move forward.

Hi, I’m Julia.

Do you ever feel stuck between being overwhelmed and feeling numb?

Together, we look at how your past experiences shape your patterns and relationships, so you can start making sense of what feels confusing or heavy.

I work with older teens and young adults navigating self-esteem, relationship dynamics, depression, ADHD, trauma, and people-pleasing.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you.

Not a formula, but a real conversation that leads somewhere.

She, Her, Hers

Hi, I’m Rebecca.

Life can feel like a lot to carry, especially when anxiety or stress starts to feel constant.

In our work together, we slow things down, understand what is underneath the surface, and build tools that help you feel more steady and in control.

I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges, as well as chronic illness and fertility journeys.

My style is supportive, grounded, and focused on helping you create meaningful, lasting change.
