If emotional conflicts or trauma are holding you back from living a fulfilling life—whether in your relationships, career, or creative endeavors—I am here to help you toward meaningful transformation. Together, we can uncover the roots of your struggles, heal from the inside out, and help you create the life you deserve.

My name is Mihaela Ivan Holtz. I am a Doctor in Clinical Psychology, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and an EMDRIA-certified EMDR therapist. I also hold certification in Psychoanalytic Therapy. My approach integrates Attachment EMDR with psychodynamic and psychoanalytic relational therapy, combining the neuroscience of psychotherapy and interpersonal neurobiology to offer a uniquely tailored therapeutic experience.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate emotional conflicts, relational trauma, creative blocks, and performance anxiety. I have extensive experience working with creatives and performers, including writers, actors, musicians, visual artists, producers, directors, designers, and creative entrepreneurs. For those who feel stuck or disconnected from their creative or performing flow, I help them rediscover their voice and expression.

Central to my approach is the belief that relationships and connections are at the heart of healing and growth. I work to cultivate a deeply attuned therapeutic relationship that supports your emotional and creative resilience.
I am committed to honoring the rich layers of identity, culture, gender, and sexuality that shape each person’s experience. It is a privilege to work with individuals from all walks of life, and I am dedicated to creating a safe and inclusive space for healing.

I practice in Beverly Hills, CA, offering both in-person and online psychotherapy sessions. Together, we can create a journey of healing and growth. You can reconnect with your authentic and empowering self.
