If you find yourself feeling disconnected, panicked, or frozen in the face of change, adversity, or responsibility, therapy can help. At Philosophical and Cognitive Therapy (PACT), we work with individuals in San Francisco to explore life’s challenges, build insight and awareness, and foster personal growth. Our virtual therapy services make it easy to access personalized support from anywhere in the city or the Bay Area.
At Philosophical and Cognitive Therapy (PACT), we understand LA residents need a therapeutic space to reflect, heal, and find meaning. We support clients through anxiety, existential crisis, career stress, relationship difficulties, and more. Our approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps make change and reach concrete goals, along with philosophical counseling, which reaches areas of concern that are more insight-oriented and existential.
Common challenges LA residents face include immense pressure to succeed, relationship difficulties, identity questions, and a search for meaning. We at PACT believe that therapy isn’t merely about symptom reduction but, more deeply, about understanding oneself and creating a fulfilling life. At PACT, we help clients face life’s uncertainties and challenges with openness and curiosity to help them access their innate strength and wisdom and build enduring resilience.
PACT therapists help clients in Los Angeles explore their thoughts, emotions, and values through a safe, open-minded therapeutic relationship. Integrating principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we offer collaborative support in examining patterns of thinking that contribute to distress while addressing deeper questions of meaning, purpose, and identity. We help clients navigate dilemmas that trigger value conflicts, fostering clarity and alignment with their values and goals.
By reconnecting with your values and purpose, symptom relief emerges as a natural result. Our approach equips you with practical tools and attitudes to manage uncertainty, build resilience, and embrace a more authentic way of living.
PACT works with clients across LA, providing a space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and challenges in a way that fosters growth, resilience, and deeper self-understanding. Whether you’re navigating career burnout in Beverly Hills, relationship challenges in Los Feliz, or existential questions in Santa Monica, our approach is responsive to your needs.
