Trauma-Informed

Somatic Therapy in

Los Angeles & Pasadena, CA

EMDR Therapy

Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t require you to rehash the past. It helps you metabolize it in a new way. This research-backed, somatic-based therapy targets trauma at the neurological level, so what’s been stuck for years can finally begin to shift.

LGBTQ+ Therapy

Finding a therapist who genuinely gets it changes everything. As a queer therapist, I bring lived understanding to the complexities of identity, relationships, and the particular exhaustion of living in an increasingly divisive world.

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy

For those who feel they’ve tried everything, Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy opens a door that other approaches often can't. Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy pairs the neurological effects of ketamine with depth-oriented therapy to help you access and process what’s been out of reach.

ATTACHMENT-FOCUSED

Your earliest relationships created a blueprint that still runs quietly in the background of every connection you have today. Attachment-focused therapy brings that blueprint into focus — so you can understand it, work with it, and begin to change it.

SOMATIC INTEGRATION

Some healing happens below the level of words. Somatic integration combines bilateral stimulation, sound healing, and tuning fork energy work into a single, cohesive modality. One that works with your body’s own intelligence to release stored trauma and recalibrate the nervous system.

TRAUMA & PTSD

Trauma rewires the way you see yourself, other people, and the world. My practice specializes in helping adults untangle that rewiring — using a carefully integrated blend of EMDR, somatic therapy, and attachment-focused work to create lasting change, not just symptom relief.

I'm Thomas Blake, a licensed marriage and family therapist and the founder of this practice. I work with adults — many queer, many in creative fields — all of them ready to stop managing their symptoms and start changing the patterns underneath them. My work is relational, body-aware, and grounded in evidence. The container I build for it is the kind I'd want for myself.

Most of my clients share something in common: they've usually done some therapy before, and they're ready to stop performing wellness and start practicing it. Many work in entertainment or other creative-pressure industries. Many are LGBTQ+. Almost all are looking for a therapist they can actually build a long relationship with — not a service provider, a person.
