Therapy for the modern woman.
Support for the stressed out, overworked, overwhelmed woman.
Compassionate. Supportive. Authentic.
I am passionate about helping women in therapy find their voice, unlock their confidence, and develop deeper relationships with themselves and others so that they can be fully seen and known. As women we are taught to play it safe and to stay small. We are taught to wear the terms “selfless” and “nice” like a badge of honor. Most of my female clients begin therapy feeling stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, and/or depressed as a result of this learned message. They are seeking better relationships with themselves and with their loved ones but they aren’t sure how to navigate these changes.
How it works
Together in therapy, we will examine what you were taught about being a woman and uncover the woman that you would like to be. Therapy is a safe place for you to challenge the self-criticism and find ways to be more compassionate towards yourself. In addition, will explore ways to build your self-esteem, your confidence and your assertiveness.
During our work together we will focus on the patterns that leave you feeling stressed, overwhelmed and overworked. Together we will identify where boundary setting is difficult and how this is impacting your life.
After that, we will navigate how to set those difficult boundaries. We will carve out a life that leaves you feeling truly seen, known and loved.
Celynna Harnetiaux LMFT: Therapy for Women in Redondo Beach
Empowering Women to Thrive
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, striving for unattainable perfection, or struggling with body image and self-esteem? Do you find it difficult to set healthy boundaries in your personal or professional life? Are you constantly feeling tired and frustrated because it seems impossible to find the time to do it all? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to face these challenges on your own.
At my Redondo Beach practice, I specialize in providing therapy for women dealing with:
Anxiety: Managing stress, worry, and racing thoughts that can feel all-consuming.
Perfectionism: Addressing the pressure to always be “perfect” and learning how to embrace imperfection with compassion.
Body Image Issues: Navigating insecurities and societal pressures around physical appearance to develop a healthier relationship with your body.
Self-Esteem: Building confidence, self-worth, and self-compassion.
Boundary Setting: Learning to set and maintain healthy boundaries in relationships, both at home and work.
Feeling Overwhelmed: Supporting women who feel exhausted, frustrated, and unable to find time for themselves amid the demands of work, family, and personal obligations.
In addition to traditional talk therapy, I also offer EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help process and heal from past trauma, anxiety, or other deeply rooted emotional struggles. EMDR is a highly effective approach that helps clients reprocess distressing memories and shift the way they respond to stressful or triggering situations.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore these issues and find strategies for growth and healing. Therapy is tailored to meet your unique needs, whether you're navigating a significant life transition or seeking ongoing support for long-standing issues.
Located in the beautiful Riviera Village, just steps away from the calming beach, my office offers an inviting environment for our sessions. Additionally, I offer walk-and-talk therapy for those who feel more comfortable in motion, making the most of our coastal surroundings.
