Kindman & Co. in Highland Park, CA
Relational therapists for navigating connection, change, and identity
Feeling unseen, unheard, or misunderstood hurts — you don’t have to navigate it alone
We understand how painful it is to feel disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by anxiety or grief, struggling in your relationships, or questioning your identity, values, or direction during times of change.
Maybe the uncertainty of the past few months has left you feeling constantly on edge, or the news cycle is making it hard to find your footing. Whatever is showing up for you—anxiety, exhaustion, or just feeling 'off'—it makes sense.
Our diverse team of therapists deeply honors your lived experience and the many intersections of your identity. Our work is relational, inclusive, and rooted in care that is attentive to the broader social and cultural contexts—including the current stressors of our world—that shape our lives.
We work with individuals and people in many kinds of relationships, including couples, partners, queer, nontraditional, and non-monogamous structures.
Kindman & Co. is a Los Angeles–based psychotherapy practice offering inclusive, relational therapy grounded in a social justice lens.
Located in Highland Park, we provide therapy for adults, teens, couples and people in relationships, families, and groups across the Eastside of Los Angeles, including Northeast L.A., Los Feliz, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Eagle Rock, Glassell Park, Mount Washington, Pasadena, and Downtown L.A.
Individual and relationship therapy that meets you where you are — not where you’re “supposed” to be
At Kindman & Co., we offer relational, identity-affirming therapy rooted in connection, care, and lived experience, based in Los Angeles and virtually throughout California.
Our work supports clients in strengthening communication, expressing emotions more openly, exploring identity on your terms, and healing from trauma.
We’re not here to diagnose you, put you in a box, or tell you who to be. Instead, we focus on helping you reconnect with yourself and with others in ways that feel aligned, relational, and true to you.
We understand that what we carry is shaped by the relationships and systems around us. We hold the beauty and messiness of being human in an uncertain world, and recognize that healing is rooted in community, connection, and collective care.
Whether you’re seeking individual therapy, relationship or couples therapy, or support for political stress and climate anxiety, our team is here to meet you where you are and help you build the connection, clarity, joy, and liberation you deserve. No outdated therapy rules. No perfectionism. No having to pretend you have it all together.
We’re dedicated to supporting the collective healing of our community
We believe that individual healing is deeply intertwined with collective liberation — because none of us exist outside the world we’re living in. When we cultivate authentic, nourishing relationships, we help fuel meaningful social change.
Our team is here to help you build relationships that feel supportive, honest, and sustaining. We want you to feel grounded in your identity, affirmed in your experiences, and deeply supported by the people you love.
For couples and intimate partners, we help you strengthen communication, cultivate emotional safety, and create a relationship where each of you gets to be your most authentic self.
We know healing doesn’t happen in isolation. That’s why we also offer therapy groups and communal spaces that remind you: you don’t have to navigate healing, or the world, alone.
we deeply value human connection & take an anti-oppressive stance
As relational and feminist therapists, we lead with our values, centering care, collaboration, and liberation in every session.
Our team is especially equipped to support BIPOC clients, LGBTQIA2S+ communities, people exploring non-monogamy & expansive relationships, and those navigating racial trauma, identity exploration, or creative and nontraditional life paths.
At Kindman & Co., we believe showing up authentically is an act of resistance.
You won’t find any old-school, “blank slate” therapists here. We show up as real people with real feelings, humor, messiness, and complex lived experiences.
Therapy works best when two humans show up fully, so your therapist brings genuine presence and shared humanity. You’ll know them as a whole person, too.
We look forward to working alongside you as you deepen your connection to yourself, your relationships, and your communities.
We know things feel heavy right now. We make the first step simple so that finding a therapist doesn’t have to be another cause for overwhelm. Let’s figure out the right fit together.
Our vision
Kindman & co. exists to help create thriving communities by nourishing intimate relationships, healing trauma, & bringing about positive social change.
we see you.
Human beings are wired for connection. We’re not meant to do life alone.
And still, it’s easy to find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you “should” be handling things better on your own.
Distress gets framed as something “wrong” with us, something to fix on your own or find ways to push through.
We see it differently—that experiencing distress is both incredibly human and meaningful.
We believe it makes sense that you feel the way you do.
We see your sadness, worry, and loneliness as meaningful signals—not overreactions or problems.
Your distress is valid feedback about what you’re navigating in your environment, your relationships, and a world that doesn’t treat everyone with the same care or dignity.
Your struggles aren’t just individual; they’re shaped by culture, community, oppression, expectation, and connection. Whether you’ve experienced racism, transphobia, fatphobia, ableism, or other forms of marginalization, there’s a therapist at Kindman & Co. ready to support you and join with you towards liberation.
As Esther Perel says, “the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives.” We’re here to help you understand and soothe your distress, build effective communication and emotional skills, and feel more authentic and alive in your relationships.
You already carry strengths for a more connected, fulfilling life. We’re here to help you reconnect with them & get the support that every human deserves.
our ideal client: you.
You are welcome here regardless of race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity, ability, immigration status, or religion.
You don’t have to be anyone but you when you’re at Kindman & Co.
how our los angeles therapists help
RELATIONSHIPS
We believe that meaningful connection is at the heart of our well-being.
Our brains and nervous systems are literally wired for closeness—research shows supportive relationships help us live longer, healthier, and fuller lives!
At Kindman & Co., we build deeply empathic partnerships with our clients where everyone in the therapy room matters. We believe therapy works best when two real humans show up and shape the space together.
No clinical robots here—just real humans committed to connection.
Our relationship & couple therapists specialize in helping you strengthen intimacy, expand curiosity, take brave emotional risks, set & honor your boundaries, advocate for your relational needs, and create agreements that feel fair, doable, and nourishing for everyone involved.
TRAUMA
Trauma touches every one of us.
Not just through “big” events, but through any experience that overwhelms our capacity to cope that becomes stored in the body—especially when you weren’t given the care, protection, or validation you needed. Trauma isn’t just what happened; it’s what happened without support.
Healing starts with relationship. For many people, being met with empathy, attunement, and zero judgment—at a pace that actually feels safe—can be life-changing.
Our trauma therapists use somatic, body-based, and nervous-system-informed approaches to help you build compassion for your experiences, understand your triggers, develop tools for managing big feelings, and gently rewire your nervous system toward safety, resilience, and grounding.
We also hold space for racial trauma & identity wounds shaped by a world that too often polices, dismisses, or denies your humanity. Your healing is resistance, and we honor that.
CULTURE & CONTEXT
We’re living in an increasingly divided world that moves us away from our basic need for connection.
It’s more than any one person can hold alone and too often, we’re taught to feel ashamed when we struggle.
Our social justice-informed approach brings the full context of your life—your cultures, intersectional identities, communities, relationships, and the systemic forces that shape your experience. We look at the actual environment you’re trying to survive in, not just the symptoms you carry.
We use a values-forward style that explores your environment and context and recognizes that issues of social injustice and oppression may be contributing to your distress.
We help you understand mental health symptoms as reasonable responses to an unjust world, not evidence that something is “wrong” with you. Together, we work toward greater liberation, pleasure, joy, and agency—we’ll help you embrace feelings and actions that empower you & better the world.
