Supervised by Amy Gandin, LMFT #40831
Rev. Dr. Tonya Reed, Ph.D., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, our Beverly Hills clinical team brings a distinctive integration of psychotherapy, transpersonal psychology, neuroscience, mind-body psychology, spirituality, and life-transition work to the therapeutic relationship. She works with adults navigating midlife transitions, relationship challenges, grief and loss, trauma, identity, stress, and questions of meaning, purpose, and personal growth.
Tonya offers a thoughtful and compassionate space for clients who want to understand themselves at greater depth. Her approach recognizes that emotional well-being does not exist in isolation: our psychological experiences are interconnected with our bodies, relationships, personal histories, identities, beliefs, and the larger questions we may carry about who we are and how we want to live.
Tonya holds a Ph.D. in Transpersonal Counseling and an M.S. in Applied Psychophysiology with an emphasis in neuroscience and mind-body medicine. She also holds a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in California. Her clinical approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness, and mind-body perspectives.
As a mature clinician, researcher, and ordained interfaith minister, Tonya brings a unique capacity to explore the psychological, relational, physiological, and spiritual dimensions of a client’s experience. For clients who consider spirituality an important part of their lives, therapy can provide a place to explore faith, spiritual identity, meaning, existential questions, or changes in long-held beliefs. Spirituality is always client-led and welcomed when meaningful to the individual—never assumed or imposed.
Tonya has a particular interest in the psychological and relational dimensions of midlife and the years beyond. This stage of life can bring profound shifts in identity, relationships, family roles, caregiving responsibilities, career, grief, physical changes, priorities, and purpose. Questions such as Who am I now? What still matters to me? What am I ready to release? What do I want the next chapter of my life to become? can emerge with new urgency.
Rather than viewing these questions simply as problems to resolve, Tonya helps clients approach them as opportunities for deeper self-understanding and intentional change. Her background in grief and end-of-life support also informs her work with individuals confronting significant loss, mortality, legacy, anticipatory grief, and existential concerns.
Tonya welcomes BIPOC clients seeking culturally responsive care in which identity, family systems, lived experience, cultural context, and intergenerational influences can be explored with depth and respect. Her work is grounded in the belief that meaningful therapy considers the whole person—mind, body, emotions, relationships, culture, and spirit.
Clients seeking Tonya’s support at our Beverly Hills location can expect a therapist who brings warmth, maturity, intellectual curiosity, and depth to the therapeutic relationship while remaining collaborative and responsive to the individual sitting before her.

"The next chapter of life does not require us to have every answer. Sometimes healing begins by creating enough space to listen deeply, understand what has shaped us, and choose with greater intention who we are becoming."
