Hi, I'm Hila
I'm a licensed psychotherapist in Los Altos helping adults navigate life's hardest challenges — trauma, loss, transitions, and the quiet suffering that doesn't always have a name.
My approach is relational and psychodynamic: we work not just on symptoms, but on understanding the deeper patterns, early experiences, and wounds that shape how you feel and relate to the world today.
I believe everyone has the capacity to heal. In our sessions together, we'll create a space that is safe, honest, and genuinely tailored to you.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation. Reach out and I'll respond within 24 hours.
