Therapy That Feels Like a Conversation, Not a Lecture
Hi, I’m Kiana Sena (she/her), a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#117251) in California. I specialize in helping individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or just plain lost as they navigate big life transitions, identity exploration, relationships, and the general chaos of "adulting."
Life doesn’t come with an instruction manual—so if you're feeling like you missed the memo on how to "have it all together," you're not alone. I take a real, down-to-earth approach to therapy that honors your uniqueness and respects your pace:
✔️ Strengths-Based & Empowering – You already have the tools to thrive. I’ll help you sharpen them.
✔️ Psychodynamic & Relational – Your past experiences shape you, but they don’t define you. Let’s rewrite your story.
✔️ Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) – Let’s gently shift unhelpful patterns into ones that support your goals and values.
✔️ Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – Learn to make space for difficult thoughts and feelings, stay present, connect to your core values, and take meaningful steps forward — in a way that feels authentic for you.
I believe therapy should be a safe and judgment-free space where you can be your authentic self—messy thoughts, big feelings, existential questions, and all. Whether you're figuring out your next steps, navigating neurodivergence, or redefining who you are, I’m here to support you in a way that feels validating, insightful, and maybe even a little fun.
Together, we’ll explore what thriving looks like based on your values, needs, and hopes — not based on rigid expectations or societal pressures. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you, it’s about supporting you in showing up as your full and authentic self.
・ A Little About Me ・
When I’m not in therapist mode, I’m a mom, partner, and self-proclaimed life-long learner. I live in Southern California with my amazing spouse, our two sons, and our two (very spoiled) dogs.
If you're ready to feel more grounded, empowered, and clear about your next steps, let's connect. Therapy doesn’t have to be stiff and clinical—it can be a place where you truly feel seen, understood, and supported.
📅 Let’s chat! Schedule a consultation and see if we’re a good fit.
