Therapy for Grief, Trauma & Mental Health in Newport Beach
There are times in life when having the right person to talk to really matters. I offer thoughtful, compassionate therapy with room for everything you're carrying and the training to help us know what to do with it.
-
Past experiences can continue to affect how you feel, respond, and relate to other people long after they're over. I work with adults processing trauma, difficult memories, and experiences that still feel present in everyday life.
As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I can incorporate EMDR into our work when it's a good fit. We can also draw from other approaches depending on what you need and how you prefer to work.
-
Anxiety can take up an incredible amount of mental space- overthinking, anticipating what could go wrong, second-guessing decisions, or finding it difficult to ever fully settle. Depression can make everyday life require more energy than you have available.
We'll look at what's contributing to how you're feeling and work on changes that are useful outside of the therapy room, too.
-
There are parts of adulthood that can change your relationship with yourself in ways you didn't necessarily expect. Career, relationships, pregnancy, parenting, identity, perimenopause, menopause, and changing priorities can all bring up questions about what you need and what you want next.
Therapy gives us room to talk about those changes honestly and without assuming there's one right way to move through them.
-
All grief can be profound. Traumatic grief is different in that you're not only grieving the person you lost- you may also be living with the trauma of how you lost them.
I work with adults grieving the death of a baby, child, family member, or someone deeply important to them, including losses that were sudden, frightening, or traumatic.
There is room here for the person you loved and for what happened.
Traumatic Grief & Bereavement Therapy in Newport Beach, CA
Grieving who you lost while also living with how you lost them.
When trauma becomes part of a loss, grief can become especially complicated. There can be love and longing alongside fear, intrusive memories, anger, guilt, or images of what happened that are difficult to get away from.
I provide compassionate bereavement care for adults navigating grief and trauma after the loss of someone deeply important to you.
We can make room for both parts of your experience. You don't have to choose which one needs attention first.
Perinatal Mental Health Therapy in Newport Beach, CA
Care for you, too.
Pregnancy, postpartum, fertility, birth, and loss can bring emotions that are complicated, unexpected, and sometimes difficult to say out loud.
With specialized training in maternal mental health, I support women through anxiety, depression, trauma, difficult birth experiences, pregnancy and infant loss, and the emotional changes that can come with becoming a parent.
You can tell me how it actually feels here.
Meet Juliana Parker, LPCC
I think therapy works better when it feels like an actual conversation.
I'm warm and compassionate, but I'm also an active therapist. I'll listen closely, ask questions, tell you what I'm noticing, and make sure what we're doing together feels useful to you.
My approach draws from EMDR, IFS, ACT, and other evidence-based practices, always with the person sitting across from me in mind.

A superbill is a detailed receipt for therapy services that you can submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. If your plan includes out-of-network benefits, your insurance provider may reimburse you for a portion of the cost of therapy.
I’m happy to provide a superbill upon request. Because every insurance plan is different, I recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits and reimbursement rates.
