Holistic Psychotherapy in Oakland, California
Elana Morgulis is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT), Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 200), and Certified Healing Arts Practitioner.
An Integrative Approach to Therapy
During my undergraduate years, I fell in love with the practice of yoga and completed a personally transformative training program that led me to teach thousands of students across California. In my psychotherapy practice, I draw upon the foundations of yoga for mindfulness, stress reduction, and somatic awareness. These therapies show us how to exist in the present moment with ourselves. In our fast-paced, digital world, disconnecting and allowing ourselves to slow down is simply not part of our culture. With mindfulness-based psychotherapy, I provide a safe place for you to unplug and show up as you are.

Individual Therapy in Oakland
I provide a safe, healing space for those seeking individual therapy in the Bay Area. In individual therapy, your needs drive the way we structure our sessions and weeks together. With a combination of talk therapy and experiential techniques, we explore and identify what is holding you back or what incorrect assumptions you may be living by. Whatever mental health goals you may have, or even if you don’t have a clear goal in mind, our sessions can guide you towards a future in which you are able to tolerate stress and seek out joy.
Seeking individual therapy is a brave decision and I am here to support you every step of the way. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you have been on your own journey for years, we work together to determine what types of integrated therapies are best suited for whatever it is that brought you into my office. The benefits of holistic psychotherapy are vast and can include, but are not limited to:
- Improved mental health and well-being
- Reduced stress levels and anxiety
- Greater insight into yourself and your relationships
- Enhanced creativity and productivity
- A deeper sense of self-awareness and purpose in life.
Couples Therapy in Oakland
Couples therapy can be extremely difficult to bring up with a partner, but it can also be one of the most rewarding and healing experiences for a relationship. I specialize in working with couples who are struggling and provide a safe place for them to explore their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. In couples therapy, we work together to identify any unhealthy patterns that have developed over time, and address the underlying issues that may be driving these patterns. I work with couples to help them begin communicating more effectively, express their needs from a place of love rather than fear or anger, and learn how to better support each other through life’s ups and downs.
