Empowering Minds and Bodies

In-person and virtual therapy for teens and adults in greater Pasadena, North East LA, and California. 

Supporting teens and adults through life’s pressures with somatic, trauma-informed therapy that builds connection, resilience, and lasting confidence.

Feeling like life is moving around you while you stand still can be overwhelming. If you've ever felt like life is happening to you instead of with you, you're not alone. My practice focuses on helping young people reconnect with themselves and the world around them.

Maybe you're here because stress, anxiety, fear, or burnout are making it hard to feel grounded. When you're balancing school, relationships, family, and athletics, it’s easy to lose touch with yourself in the middle of it all.

Through somatic and therapeutic embodiment approaches, I help realign the mind-body connection to support self-awareness, emotional regulation, performance, and long-term resilience.

If you’re feeling emotionally stuck, underperforming, or simply overwhelmed, this is a space to work through those feelings—while also strengthening your relationships, improving communication, and reconnecting with the version of yourself that feels most real.

Therapy can bring relief. It helps you see clearly, feel more like yourself, and make meaningful change. I offer a warm, personalized approach that meets you where you are—and helps you grow into where you want to be.

Curious about working together?

I offer a free consultation to explore your needs, answer any questions, and talk about how I can best support you.

Hi, I’m Lidia Garcia—a mental health professional, athlete, and community builder. I take a somatic, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approach to help young people move through life’s challenges with greater ease. When mind and body are aligned, we create space to grow into the life we want.
