Mary Ann Aronsohn, MA , LMFT
South Pasadena
Families going through separation and divorce are seldom at their best. A therapist who knows this and is able to give families tools without judgment can help families restructure with dignity, in a healing rather than harmful way.
Mary Ann treats adults and adolescents, couples and families in her private practice. She teaches conflict management for co-parents, is a case manager and divorce coach, and sees great value in the team approach to divorce management. A parent and stepparent, Mary Ann is known for her experience and compassion.
Interview with Larry Mantle of KPCC Radio on January 24, 2007 about less confrontational alternatives to traditional divorce. Listen to Audio.
