Navigate Parenthood & Family Life With Support
“Making space for better family connections”
Parenthood can bring uncertainty, frustration, and change, creating new emotional and relational challenges for parents. Sasha creates a warm, supportive space where parents and families can pause, talk openly, and make sense of what is happening beneath everyday challenges. Sasha offers parents and family therapy in Sherman Oaks that helps parents at every stage explore communication patterns, family dynamics, emotional needs, parenting concerns, and changing relationships. Sessions are shaped around your family’s unique experiences, like helping fathers with patrescence and recognize patterns that may be affecting connection at home. Her collaborative approach helps families develop greater awareness, communicate more intentionally, and respond to one another with greater understanding. Whether you are adjusting to a new stage of parenthood or addressing ongoing family concerns, Sasha can provide guidance for navigating these changes with greater clarity.
Growing Stronger Together, One Conversation at a Time
Family relationships can become challenging when emotions, expectations, and communication patterns make it difficult to feel connected. Sasha provides an opportunity to understand these patterns and develop healthier ways of relating to one another.
Connection
Family counseling can create a space for family members to express themselves openly, understand one another’s perspectives, and work through communication difficulties. This can make it easier to address disagreements and remain connected during periods of change.
Confidence
Parent support gives caregivers a place to reflect on parenting concerns, changing family roles, emotional challenges, and everyday situations that may feel difficult to navigate alone. Sasha offers thoughtful and informed guidance while helping parents recognize their strengths and develop approaches that feel more aligned with their family’s needs.
Understanding
Exploring patterns, emotions, expectations, and past experiences can help family members understand what may be influencing their relationships. With greater awareness, families can discover new ways to listen, respond, communicate, and move through challenging moments together.
Your Family’s Story Deserves a Private, Supportive Space
Family relationships often involves deeply personal experiences and emotions. At AJ Matustik Therapy, Sasha creates a respectful and confidential environment where parents and families can openly explore challenges, improve communication, and work through changing family dynamics with care and understanding.

Sasha’s Approach
Therapy that starts with understanding you
Sasha believes therapy starts with getting to know you—not just what brings you in, but the experiences, relationships, and patterns that have shaped where you are today. She takes time to listen and understand what you need, creating a space where you can be open, ask questions, and work through things at a pace that feels comfortable.
Her approach draws from Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) and experiential therapy to help you make sense of your emotions and experiences in a way that feels relevant to your life. Together, you can look at patterns that may be getting in the way, build a better understanding of yourself and your relationships, and find new ways of responding to challenges. Sasha keeps therapy flexible and collaborative, allowing each session to focus on what feels most meaningful and useful to you.
