 “Hi, I’m Carmen Spears a licensed therapist.  I offer in-person therapy in Los Angeles, California. I chose to specialize in grief and trauma therapy because I wanted to support individuals through difficult losses and emotional distress.

My Specialties

Grief and Loss

  • As a Grief and Loss Therapist in Los Angeles, I can assist you with processing your grief and loss so that you can continuing living in this world without them. This is done by teaching you how to work through the 5 stages of grief and how to find meaning in their death.  This will bring about a renewed sense of purpose and meaning in your life.​ Whether you’re struggling with the loss of a spouse, widow grief, death of a child or infant, or grief due to terminal illness, I’m here to help.

Anger Management

  • I can show you how to control your anger so that you can decrease conflicts with others. A couple ways I do this are by teaching you calming techniques and effective communication skills.  These allow you to decrease your feelings of anger, lower your stress, and to improve your interactions with others. If you’re looking for something more intense, then check out my Anger Management Program. This program includes recorded video lessons, handouts, and 12 hours of content.

  • If you’re struggling with family trauma, childhood trauma, or generational trauma, contact me to begin your healing process. As a trauma therapist in Los Angeles, California, I can teach you how to heal from your trauma so that you no longer have painful memories or nightmares. One way I do this is by teaching you relaxation skills and how to remove negative feelings associated with your past trauma. Doing this results in you getting a good night’s rest and being present in life as you create new joyful memories.
