Psychotherapist + Clinical Supervisor

ABOUT

Born and raised in California, Gaea has lived on the east and west coasts, and abroad in Europe and Asia.  She earned her Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles with a specialization in Spiritual Depth Psychology, and her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from Rhode Island School of Design.

 

Gaea is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist & Clinical Supervisor.  She specializes in Psychodynamic and Depth Psychology, both of which value the development of a relationship between the conscious and unconscious mind.  

Prior to pursuing a career as a Psychotherapist, Gaea worked in the fields of fine art, commercial photography, and advertising.  She learned firsthand that balancing one’s personal vision with commercial interests can be both challenging and rewarding.  As an artist and photographer herself, Gaea is especially interested in working with and supporting clients who are on their own creative path.
