About
Teela Allen is an integrative psychotherapist licensed in California with 10 years of professional experience. She has worked in a range of clinical and advocacy roles as a psychotherapist and social worker and holds multiple certifications, including Certified Mental Health Integrative Culinary Medicine Provider, Certified Yoga Instructor (RYT-200), Certified Trauma Informed Outreach Trainer, and Certified Peristeam (Vaginal steam) Facilitator.
She chose this work after experiencing many forms of trauma herself and recognizes how overwhelming events can disrupt the nervous system and leave experiences unresolved. Teela understands that unprocessed trauma can create imbalances across mental, spiritual, emotional, physical, behavioral, and biological aspects of life.
Her practice blends traditional psychotherapy with a holistic, body-inclusive approach that brings somatic awareness together with consideration of culture, personal beliefs and spirituality, and nutritional protocols focused on gut health. Her counseling style is authentic, non-judgmental, collaborative, and empowering, and she creates a therapeutic setting that is trauma-informed, supportive, and designed to illuminate areas in need of care.
Teela tailors dialogue and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs and welcomes ongoing feedback throughout the therapeutic process. She aims to act as a guiding light, offering tangible tools to support better functioning and optimal wellness. For those ready to pursue healing, make peace, and create balance, Teela offers support and encouragement as clients begin their work toward change.
She is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, credentialed as CA LMFT 121261.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?
Many people wonder whether remote therapy delivers meaningful results. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that fits their needs and comfort level - video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, or messaging within an app - which often makes it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Licensed professionals provide care through these remote options, and if someone feels another therapist would be a better match, it is possible to switch providers at any time.
