Andrew Stravitz, LAMFT

Andrew is a lot things: father, husband, therapist, consultant, minister. But ultimately he’s just a big dumb jock at heart, mixed with far more nerd than you’d expect. He avoids his own neuroses by baking sourdough, playing pick up basketball, and reading up on the theories of personality. But to clients, Andrew is a collaborator that encourages the embrace of fear, failure, and fragility, because what’s life without a few irrevocable regrets. He employs evidenced based treatments, such as Internal Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and good ol’ fashioned psychoanalysis. He loves working with high conflict, complex trauma, and nerve-y taboos.

”Sometimes life is too damn hard, relationships too damn painful, and often times it’s our own damn fault. We might as well be honest about it all, because then we can brainstorm how to find some direction and maybe even some contentment along the way.”
