Licensed Psychotherapist · EMDR Certified · Founder, Therapia Psychotherapy Group
About Dr. GözdeYou deserve a space where you feel truly heard, not managed, not rushed, and not reduced to a label.
I founded Therapia Psychotherapy Group in Beverly Hills after more than a decade in the Los Angeles mental health community. I work with adults, couples, children, teens, and families, in person and online across California, as they move through some of life's most painful and complicated experiences.
Dr. Gözde’s Expertise
-
As an EMDR-certified therapist, I help clients work through complex PTSD and the lasting effects of a difficult childhood.
-
From the shock of diagnosis through treatment, survivorship, and fear of recurrence. I also work with chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and unexplained physical symptoms.
-
Perimenopause, menopause (including medically induced menopause), and maternal mental health.
-
I help clients work through the identity shifts that come with ADHD or ASD diagnosis.
-
Sessions that help parents understand their child's emotional world, reduce power struggles, and respond with more confidence.
-
Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help partners reconnect and rebuild trust.
My therapeutic approach
I draw on EMDR, psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment-based work, and trauma-informed care. Together, we look at what is underneath the pain, including stress held in the body and nervous system, so you can move forward with more clarity, connection, and self-trust.
I also lead Therapia's clinical team. Every associate is supervised by me, which means clients across the practice benefit from coordinated, collaborative care.
