Psychotherapy in Malibu for Deep Healing and Real Growth
Living in Malibu can feel peaceful. You may enjoy the beaches, hikes, and quiet days. But even in a beautiful place, life can still be hard. You might feel anxious, lonely, or unsure of where to turn.
At Addison Golden Psychotherapy, we offer therapy that helps you feel more connected to yourself. We meet online, so you can join from your home, your office, or even after a walk by the ocean.
You don’t have to face challenges alone. Therapy is a space to talk, grow, and heal.
Meet Your Therapist: Addison Golden, LMFT
Addison Golden is a licensed therapist who works with people across California. She helps teens, adults, and professionals who want to feel better and understand themselves more.
Addison listens closely. She asks thoughtful questions. She makes space for all parts of you—your thoughts, your emotions, and your experiences.
Her therapy is warm, honest, and helpful. She uses several types of therapy, including:
IFS (Internal Family Systems)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
Mindfulness-based tools
Insight-based therapy
You can talk about anything in therapy. This is your space, where you don’t have to pretend.
Therapy in Malibu That Fits Your Life
Malibu has a calm and natural beauty. Whether you spend time at Zuma Beach, walk in the Santa Monica Mountains, or watch the sunset near Point Dume, nature can be healing.
Still, daily life can bring stress. You might feel stuck in old patterns, unsure how to move forward. Therapy can help you get clear and feel more grounded.
Our therapy is done online. This gives you the freedom to meet from wherever you feel safe and comfortable—whether that’s a quiet room at home or a peaceful spot by the sea.
What We Offer
1. Free Consultation (20 Minutes)
This short call lets us connect. Addison will explain how she works. You can share what you're looking for. Together, you’ll decide if therapy feels like a good fit.
2. First Session (60 Minutes)
This is your intake session. You’ll talk about your history, your goals, and what you hope to gain. Addison will listen and help you begin your path forward.
3. Ongoing Therapy (50 Minutes Each)
You’ll meet regularly with Addison. These sessions are where the work happens—where you can open up, explore, and grow.
We Can Help With:
Anxiety and overthinking
Feeling not good enough
Life changes (breakups, moves, job shifts)
Past trauma or painful memories
People-pleasing and perfectionism
Feeling stuck in old habits
Even when things seem okay on the outside, you might feel different inside. Therapy can help you feel more whole.
How Therapy Helps
You Get to Slow Down
Malibu moves at a gentler pace than the city. Therapy helps you slow down, too. You can check in with yourself and notice what you need.
You Build Self-Awareness
You’ll start to see your thoughts and patterns more clearly. It helps you make choices that feel right for you.
You Learn New Tools
Addison will share tools to help with stress, hard emotions, and body awareness. You can use these tools in your everyday life.
Our Approach
Personalized
There is no one-size-fits-all in therapy. Addison will work with you to shape sessions around your needs and goals.
Honest and Caring
Addison is kind and also direct. She will cheer you on and gently challenge you to go deeper when you’re ready.
Mind-Body Focused
Your feelings often show up in your body. We will pay attention to those signs. You’ll learn how to feel more connected, calm, and aware.
Living in Malibu and Taking Care of Your Mental Health
Nature can support healing, and Malibu is full of it—waves, cliffs, and wide skies. You might take walks in Solstice Canyon or watch surfers at Surfrider Beach.
But even in quiet places, life can bring challenges. If you're dealing with pressure, sadness, or just feeling stuck, therapy can help you find your way.
You don’t need to wait for a crisis. Therapy is also a space for reflection, growth, and learning how to care for yourself.
