Scheyden Herold, LMFT

I am Scheyden Herold, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, living in Huntington Beach. I love to stay active by playing sports like ice hockey, pickleball, and golf, while also exercising on a regular basis. Some of my favorite shows include Parks and Rec, Seinfeld, & Stranger Things. I also have a golden retriever named Appa.

I feel that mental illness is something largely misrepresented by our society. The medical models try to focus on curing symptoms in order to alleviate troubles for clients. I feel this misses the point. Why are the symptoms occurring? Are they a malfunction? Maybe, more accurately, they are a SIGNAL that your body is trying to tell you about the true underlying cause. I feel that in order to make people feel better, they need to find the true root cause of why they are suffering emotionally. In that way, people can start to show up differently in life and learn how to properly conduct themselves in society.

When working with me, you can expect a warm and encouraging environment, where you will never feel any judgment for the problems you struggle with. I work as a collaborative force in your life, helping you orient yourself to the highest good so you can achieve the goals you'd like to achieve.
