Dr. Yulia Koba, PsyD, provides specialized therapy for women navigating hormonal and life transitions. Based in Hermosa Beach and Torrance, California, the practice also offers secure telehealth throughout the state, serving women in the South Bay and beyond. Support is available for infertility, IVF and third-party reproduction, miscarriage and pregnancy loss, pregnancy anxiety, postpartum anxiety and depression, perimenopause, menopause, and the emotional changes associated with motherhood and midlife. Therapy can also address mood shifts, identity changes, relationship stress, emotional overwhelm, and trauma that may become more present during these transitions.

The approach is warm, collaborative, evidence-based, and trauma-informed, with attention to the ways hormonal changes can affect emotional well-being and the nervous system. Services include individual therapy, infertility counseling, support during pregnancy and postpartum, and consultations and evaluations related to third-party reproduction. Treatment may incorporate EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, tailored to each client’s needs and pace.
