Gina Gratza, MS, LMFT

Gina believes in a humanistic approach that strives to honor the uniqueness of each person that walks into her office. She seeks to meet her clients where they are at and sees them as a whole being with a drive towards healing.

 

Gina started her journey in becoming a therapist at The Salvation Army in Downtown Los Angeles working at a residential center serving male veterans that were facing homelessness, struggling with addiction, and PTSD. From there she went on to spend 5 years working in treatment centers of varying levels of care for those struggling with eating disorders, exercise addiction, and trauma. It is these experiences that led her to focus her practice on healing relationships, both within the self and with others.

 

Gina has completed parts A and B of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) MDMA Therapy Training Program. She has completed the first 4 modules of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy with The Polaris Insight Center. Gina has trained and volunteered with The Zendo Project, which offers psychedelic harm reduction and integration to individuals at music/art festivals and events. Gina participates in ongoing training, educational webinars, and workshops on the topic of psychedelic science.
