Nice to Meet You
My name is Aaron Lollis and I am a licensed Trauma informed
Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my graduate
degree from Antioch University of Los Angeles and I have
been practicing psychotherapy since 2011. I have experience
working with clients from different socioeconomic
backgrounds, cultures, ages (kindergartners to seniors in their
90's), and I am a LGBTQ + Issues and ConcernsQ and POC ally. I enjoy
psychodynamic work, exploring childhood and family
dynamics and I also practice evidence base modalities. I am
certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)) and trained in
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) as well as many other modalities of treatment. Some
of the symptoms I am versed in treating range from stress,
depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis, bipolar, self-harm and
suicidality.
I am an advocate of adjusting the modality of treatment for my
clients based on their needs and I encourage a holistic
approach to align both the body and mind using mindfulness
and somatic work. I value interpersonal relationships,
collaboration, perseverance (try-fail, try-fail, try-succeed), and
learning from our experiences. I enjoy helping people in
becoming more functional, assisting them in overcoming life's
many challenges, reducing the impact of barriers to
happiness, growing, and gaining insight despite their difficult
experiences. I believe in therapy as a helpful tool to assist
people to be aware of and become their true authentic self,
and I feel that a trusting therapeutic relationship is very
important to facilitate this process.
When I am not practicing therapy I enjoy the outdoors with
camping, cycling, surfing, and team sports. I also appreciate
the arts (music, comedy, painting, movies, other performing
arts...), spending time with family, my dog, and traveling
