My name is Dorothy Husen, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist working and licensed in California, MFT #85611. I specialize in helping adults who have suffered from childhood trauma, abuse, and neglect, both physical and emotional. I teach my clients mindfulness breathing skills, self-regulation, and body resourcing skills in sessions so clients can learn how to lower their anxiety. Also, I use mind/body psychotherapy and teach Re-parenting skills.
My therapeutic approach is to provide each client with unconditional acceptance of the person they are today, and then we work together from there toward their healing. I use somatic mind/body therapies such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Attachment-Based Relationship Building, and Breathwork to help clients connect to their bodies and remain present in the session.
