Healing through Empowerment

Therapy for Adolescents & Adults | Healing from Trauma, Codependency & Eating Disorders | West Los Angeles Therapist

If you’re ready to tell your story, I’d like to hear it.

In West Los Angeles or Online in California

You deserve to feel at home in yourself.

Maybe you feel stuck—trapped in cycles of self-doubt, people-pleasing, or a complicated relationship with food and your body. Maybe you’re carrying the weight of past experiences, trying to heal from patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you struggle with setting boundaries, managing emotions, or quieting that critical inner voice, therapy can help.

I’m Cori Rosenthal, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in West Los Angeles, serving clients across California. My approach is rooted in self-compassion, empowerment, and emotional healing. I help adolescents and adults break free from limiting beliefs, build fulfilling relationships, and develop a deeper sense of self-trust. You don’t have to navigate this alone—together, we can create meaningful, lasting change.

Areas of Focus

Codependency, Hyperindependence & Developmental Trauma

Do you struggle to ask for help, feeling like you have to handle everything alone? Or maybe you’ve spent your life taking care of others while ignoring your own needs. People-pleasing and hyperindependence are often survival strategies shaped by early experiences.

Even in loving, well-meaning families, childhood emotional neglect can have a lasting impact—leaving you feeling unseen, disconnected from your emotions, or unsure how to rely on others. Together, we’ll explore these patterns, help you reconnect with yourself, and create healthier relationships where your needs matter, too.

Eating Disorders & Your Relationship with Food

Struggles with food and body image can feel all-consuming, whether you’re constantly thinking about what to eat, feeling guilt after meals, or stuck in cycles of restriction and overindulgence. I help you understand the deeper role disordered eating plays in your life, challenge harmful messages from diet culture, and develop a more compassionate, intuitive relationship with food and your body.

Healing from Weight Stigma & Embracing Body Acceptance

Living in a culture that prioritizes thinness can be exhausting, especially when society equates weight with worth. As a therapist in a plus-size body, I understand how weight stigma can impact mental health. Here, you’ll find a space where all bodies are respected, and together, we’ll work toward a relationship with yourself that is rooted in self-acceptance, not self-judgment.

Empowerment Begins Here.

Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reconnect with your inner wisdom, heal past wounds, and create the life you want. Self-compassion isn’t self-indulgence, and setting boundaries isn’t selfish. You deserve to take up space.

Let’s work together to build the confidence, clarity, and connection you’re looking for.
