About

Keri Gnanashanmugam, LCSW

Trauma and Relationship Therapist in California, Illinois, and Florida

Allow me to introduce myself.

Navigating adulthood, I often found myself relying on old patterns I developed to navigate earlier life experiences that no longer served me or my relationships. This led me to take a deep and often painful look at my patterns, uncovering the layers of my past and its manifestation in the present. Therapy was an essential component in my process and it informs my work with clients today.

I am passionate about holding space for others as they navigate their own relationship challenges, contribute to breaking the destructive cycles of trauma, and building a world that reflects compassion, respect, inclusion and resources for all.
