Hans Kulla-Mader

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2.5 mi away • Los Angeles, CA


Hey there, I'm Hans. A little about what I do: I have conversations. I bring my whole self to them: my curiosity, training, humor, and life experience—then together, we'll work toward whatever you're trying to change, understand, or get unstuck from.


I enjoy working with creatives of any age, as well as people in their twenties and thirties navigating anxiety and major life transitions. Drawing on CBT, relational, and humanistic approaches, I tailor our work together to how you want to be helped, rather than fitting you into one method. In my experience, when two people show up fully and commit to the process, moments of insight emerge that carry well beyond our sessions.

Almog Shanun

Almog Shanun

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.1 mi away • Monrovia, CA


  • I believe therapy is one of the greatest gifts that we can give to ourselves. It is an opportunity to explore and learn about the mysteries of our inner self. When I am working with a client both of us discover a vast new world that waits to unfold. I studied at Pacifica Graduate Institute, a graduate school dedicated to discovering the inner contents of the self and the secrets of the archetypes of our humanity. I believe in working with my clients face to face, together, by sharing a journey in order to learn about the hardships of today while gaining knowledge about past and present experiences. I believe in and encourage my client’s strength and ability to solve their own problems and become the healers of their own wounds. I work as a guide and as a fellow traveler in your journey toward self discovery. With every step we take toward discovery, I work hand in hand with my clients, letting them lead in finding the sources of their suffering and their capability to heal them. Treatment Modalities: Person Centered Therapy, Post Jungian, Family Systems, Trauma Theory, Sex Therapy, and working within the Feminine Principle. I work with LGBTQ community and with all kind of diversity. At Eye Of The Storm counseling I specialize with Adolescents, Adults, Relationships, Individuation, Immigration, Life Changes, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Sexual Issues, Personal Growth and Development, Life Style issues, and Court referrals.
