Catherine Penuela-ParkerMarriage & Family Therapist, LMFT (she, her)

About

In recent years, my practice has expanded to meet the demand for trauma, depression, and anxiety treatment. I began my career working with at-risk probation youth in residential placements, realizing the future is in our children’s hands. I immersed myself in community mental health, aiming to help youth and families overcome burdens leading to dysfunction. Over 15 years, I collaborated with the Department of Mental Health, Child and Family Services, Los Angeles County Probation, and non-profits. I specialize in social-emotional development and coping with generational trauma. View 5 Photos I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is comprehensive approach that addresses the physiological storage of memory and how it informs our experiences. EMDR is a widely researched model that has been proven to resolve an individual’s most severe and deeply rooted disturbances.
