Latrina Hynes, MA, LMFT
Latrina Hynes is the founder of Peace & Mind Wellness. Latrina is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with strong ties to the Los Angeles city and community. “ My objective in forming Peace & Mind wellness was to provide a safe space for community members to discuss feelings”, seems so simple but in reality, this has not been something that has been openly discussed accessible to our community. For so long we have believed that having feelings and discussing feelings were all signs of weakness. I’m here and the Center is here to bridge the gap and get rid of the old way of thinking because that has not served us.” Latrina has been working hands-on in the Los Angeles area within the community providing mental health services for over 10 years.

She also practices humanistic, psychodynamic, Gestalt and Person-centered therapy.
Most importantly, she aims to find the best modality for her clients. She is passionate about partnering with adults and teens who experience trauma/PTSD, eating disorders, and disordered eating, including family and couple relationship building in their journey of healing.
