About Allan
Allan Herem is a California licensed marriage and family therapist with 23 years of clinical experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self esteem, depression, and relationship and parenting concerns. He speaks English and provides direct, practical support for people trying to feel more confident and connected.
Allan focuses on understanding how early attachments and family patterns shape current feelings and choices. He listens for patterns of guilt, shame, abandonment, and emptiness, then helps people learn clearer communication and healthier boundaries. Sessions aim to reduce reactive behavior and build steady coping skills that carry into daily life.
His style is straightforward and compassionate. He works in a collaborative way, asking questions, offering reflections, and suggesting small experiments clients can try between sessions. Therapy often includes looking at family of origin issues, commitment and control struggles, and the emotions that come up around forgiveness and infidelity.
Over two decades in practice have allowed him to help people facing caregiver stress, fatherhood issues, and separation or divorce concerns. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailors interventions to each person’s needs. People leave sessions with clearer next steps they can try at home.
