Shoshana Katz, LMFT

Shoshana Katz is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a trans woman who brings a relational, trauma-informed approach to her work with individuals, adolescents, and families. She holds a B.A. in Cultural Anthropology, an MSc in Psychological and Psychiatric Anthropology from Brunel University in London, and an M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles.

Over nearly ten years in the field, Shoshana has worked across a wide range of settings, from volunteering on Didi Hirsch's National Suicide Prevention Center hotline to serving as a case manager helping unhoused community members access housing and health resources across Los Angeles County. Her clinical training took her through the Valley Community Counseling Clinic and The People Concern's outpatient Wellness Center on Skid Row, and included a post-graduate fellowship at the University of Southern California, where she supported survivors of sexual violence and student mental health. She has also worked at the residential level of care with families and adolescents in crisis.

She draws on the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support clients through complex trauma, transgender and queer experience, neurodivergence, attachment and relationship concerns, family conflict, and grief, and is committed to an inclusive, affirming practice where every part of a client's identity is met with care.
