Athena A. Carrillo, MA, LMFT, is a Certified Jungian Analyst (CGJILA/IAAP) based in Los Angeles, CA, who integrates Jungian psychoanalysis with body-oriented psychotherapy, quantum physics, and consciousness studies. She is currently President-Elect of the C.G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles Board of Directors and received her somatic training at JFK University.

Her practice, Mind Body Spirit Therapy, specializes in a holistic, depth-psychological approach to anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, and low self-esteem. She works with adults seeking body-oriented depth work, addressing these concerns through a lens that honors both the somatic and the spiritual dimensions of the psyche.

Athena's philosophy is rooted in Depth Psychology, which she describes through the metaphor of the lotus flower — a symbol of enlightenment nourished by what lies beneath in the unknown. She believes that exploring the unknown territory within ourselves — whether prompted by a persistent thought, a frustrating relationship pattern, a feeling of being stuck, or a traumatic experience — is central to healing and growth.

She offers a free 20-minute phone consultation for prospective clients, during which scheduling, presenting concerns, and therapeutic fit can be discussed. Sessions are held on a regular weekly basis. She also works with both individuals and couples.
