About Us

Congratulations for taking the first step in becoming a better you!

Whether you find what you are looking for here on our website, realizing that you are not living your full purpose or not living the most fulfilled life possible is a major step in reclaiming your life. Redefining You Therapy is an independent psychotherapy practice located in a new co-working space; Capsity Oak Park; on the corner of Broadway and Martin Luther King. At Capsity, we have surrounded ourselves with a committed group of individuals that are inspired and compassionate about their work and the community where their businesses are located. Redefining You Therapy, Inc. we treat individuals with a wide range of psychiatric disorders and behavioral conditions including depression, anxiety, chemical dependence, personal growth and life coaching. Although our primary focus is treating individuals who have experienced unresolved trauma such as childhood trauma, sexual or physical abuse ,anger management, domestic violence and victims of crime.

It has been our experience that client’s response to trauma can be delayed for months or even years after a traumatic event such as with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Often clients don’t associate their symptoms with the precipitating trauma. Some traumatized individuals feel permanently damaged when trauma symptoms do not go away, and they do not believe their situations will improve.

We use both traditional and nontraditional approaches in our practice. A traditional approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which intentionally changes one’s thoughts and actions using systemic desensitization (a behavioral therapy used to overcome fear) to reduce reactivity to a traumatic stressor. A nontraditional approach is Somatic Psychotherapy which centers on the idea that in order to change the body and its responses, we have to engage and change the brain - not only how we think and feel, but also how the neurological connections themselves function.

If you or someone you love are experiencing any of the aforementioned life-altering symptoms, let’s work together to put your life back on track. If you think you might benefit from the services of Redefining You Therapy, please feel free to contact us for a free 20-minute phone, video-conference or in-person consultation by clicking here and scheduling an appointment.

Again, thank you for visiting us at Redefining You Therapy,Inc. We look forward to working with you or your loved one to reclaim the life you once knew, one that promotes resiliency and emotional health, allowing you to create your own measure of success!

Sincerely,

Peter W. Best, LCSW, CAMF & Ola Adams-Best, LCSW

Welcome

Ola Adams-Best, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (California License No. 26576), and Certified Trauma Specialist.

In my practice, I use both traditional and non-traditional approaches. I make use of traditional approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which intentionally changes one’s thoughts and actions using systemic desensitization (a behavioral therapy used to overcome fear) to reduce reactivity to a traumatic stressor. I also use non-traditional approaches such as Somatic Psychotherapies which are centered on the idea - to change the body (and its responses) we have to engage and change the brain – not only how we think and feel, but also how the neurological connections themselves function.

In addition to my experience working helping individuals work through trauma, I have also worked with forensic populations with a range of psychiatric disorders and behavioral conditions, including: depression, trauma, sex abuse, anxiety and chemical dependence. I have also helped with personal growth and life coaching.

I received both my undergraduate degree, Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and graduate degree, Master of Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. I have also completed specialized training in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and look forward to working with you to fully reclaim your life, promoting resilience, emotional health and creating your own measure of success.
