Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
The concept of self-love is a mystery because you often default to a painful pattern of beating yourself up. Being productive is important to you but instead you feel overwhelmed and burnt out. You want to be in the flow with your partner but rather you are constantly at odds leaving you feeling lonely and isolated. Cultivating deeper relationships is a value to you but you feel disconnected, anxious and stressed. These and other of life’s great emotional impasses are what often lead people to therapy.
I believe the most valuable impact therapy can have on you is a deeper understanding of yourself and who you want to show up as in the world. Through consistent, gentle, and thoughtful investigation of oneself, there can be considerable growth. The deeper we are able to go together, the more attuned you will become with yourself and others.
I provide my clients with directive, empowering therapy aimed at challenging you to look at yourself in a more introspective and curious way. My clients walk away from therapy with me feeling inspired and motivated to make meaningful change in their life. My main areas of focus include: entrepreneurs, entertainment industry professionals, gay men & couples.

Doug Wilson
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
Therapy offers the possibility of growth, greater self-awareness, and acceptance. Together we can work to deepen your self-understanding. This can support you in breaking free from repetitive patterns and self-limiting beliefs. Central to my therapeutic philosophy is the belief that healing is a process, not a destination.
Another advantage to our work together is enhanced emotional resilience. By addressing suppressed emotions and integrating different aspects of yourself, you may experience greater emotional balance and a stronger sense of identity. This integration can lead to improved relationships, decision-making, and overall well-being including less anxiety and depression.
I make no promises for a cure, recognizing the complexities of mental health and the varied factors that contribute to emotional distress. Instead, I emphasize the importance of personal growth, self-awareness, and resilience as essential components of optimal mental health.

Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Hi! My name is Omer and I'm a licensed therapist based in LA. My expertise is in supporting my clients understand themselves on a deeper level, recover from trauma, foster joy and improve relationships. Together, we’ll build awareness around anxieties, fears, triggers, or conflicts that get in the way of connection with others. We’ll work to identify your needs and further develop skills to communicate them. We'll spend time calling attention to beliefs, behaviors, "shoulds" and narratives that might no longer serve you. My approach to therapy is integrative and rooted in a relational lens, focusing on attachments, dynamics, and narratives. Many of my clients are LGBTQ+, men, creative professionals, and people facing life transitions such as coming out, starting a new career, or entering parenthood.
