Karine Echighian, MS, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Do you ever feel like you’re doing everything you can just to hold it together—yet still feel anxious, stuck, or alone? You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues, and wondering if you can truly trust anyone—even yourself. It’s exhausting to question your worth while trying so hard to stay hopeful. Maybe you’ve tried to find control wherever you can, but the same patterns keep pulling you back. You’re ready for something different. You want to feel calm, confident, and grounded—to trust yourself again and build the kind of life and relationships that actually feel good. I want to help you get there. I specialize in working with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My clients describe me as compassionate, direct, and genuinely invested in their growth. Together, we’ll get clear on what’s keeping you stuck and learn to communicate your needs in ways that create real change. I’ll meet you where you are—with empathy, honesty, and practical tools to help you heal and connect more deeply. It’s easy to blame yourself when you’ve been told you’re the “common theme,” but you’re not broken—you’re human. A calmer, more confident, and connected life is possible. Let’s figure this out together. Call for a free 15-minute consultation—I’d love to hear from you.

For those looking for therapy in Woodland Hills, CA., keep in mind that too often individuals find a therapist to have someone "fix" or "stop" behaviors. While other therapists focus on offering a tool-based approach to counseling, my approach focuses more on the reflective part of therapy. As much as we want to find the quick fix, my approach to individual and couple's counseling comes from wanting to help you figure out "WHY" you do what you do, rather than just TELLING you what to do to stop the behavior. Understanding the "WHY", opens the door to creating compassion for yourself in a healthy and productive way.
