Talk Therapy
in L.A.

At Cura Behavioral Health, we believe that healing begins with understanding. Our talk therapy services provide a safe and supportive environment where patients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences with the guidance of a licensed mental health professional.

Our approach to therapy is integrative and person centered, meaning that each session is tailored to the unique needs of every patient. Our therapists are trained in multiple evidence based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Mindfulness Based Therapy, and Humanistic Therapy. These approaches help patients develop insight, improve emotional regulation, and build practical coping skills to support lasting wellness.

Understanding Talk Therapy

We understand that therapy is not one size fits all. Our clinicians work collaboratively with each patient to identify goals that align with their values and personal growth. Through this process, we aim to foster self awareness, resilience, and emotional balance.

Therapy sessions are available in person at our Los Angeles office or through secure telehealth for flexibility and convenience. At Cura, we are committed to care that is clinically effective and deeply compassionate, guided by our core values of Compassion, Unity, Resilience, and Advancement.

The Importance of Talk Therapy
