South Bay LA Therapy

Vonique “Vo” Schmidt, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in Torrance, California, provides compassionate, evidence-based therapy for individuals struggling with anger, addiction, trauma, and grief. With over a decade of experience, Vo understands that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Her personalized approach helps clients identify and change negative behaviors, manage overwhelming emotions, and develop healthy coping strategies to restore balance and well-being.

A certified specialist in trauma and anger management, Vo utilizes the Trauma Resiliency Model® to help clients reconnect with their inner strength and find stability in both body and mind. Her anger management services are designed for those who feel out of control, regret their reactions, or experience shame and frustration over repeated emotional patterns. Through individualized sessions, clients learn to recognize triggers, manage impulses, and express emotions in constructive, non-destructive ways.

Vo also provides therapy tailored for men, helping them break through societal expectations that discourage vulnerability. Her work supports men in addressing anger, addiction, and trauma so they can show up authentically in all areas of life—at home, at work, and in relationships.

In addition to in-person sessions in Torrance, Vo offers telehealth therapy throughout California, serving clients in Redondo Beach, Palos Verdes, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, and beyond. Whether you’re seeking help for anger management, addiction recovery, or trauma healing, Vo provides a safe, supportive environment to help you move forward with confidence and resilience.
