Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
The entertainment industry is a particularly challenging business to navigate and thrive in. The intense competitiveness and the premium placed on notoriety, fame and money contribute to feelings of depression, anxiety and low self-worth. In my previous career, I worked as an agent and subsequently an agency owner. This experience has given me the insight to deeply understand the constant pressure we put on ourselves to be “successful” for the sake of external validation and financial gain despite our mental well-being. I know what it’s like to achieve a version of “success” that was supposed to make me happy but, in fact, left me miserable and purposeless. If you find that you are getting in the way of your own growth because of the intensity and ruthlessness of the entertainment industry, we can work to identify what is at play and help you find the right path for you. Together we will redefine your definition of success and how that can be implemented to take your career to the next level.

Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Career dissatisfaction can show up as burnout from chronic stress, a lingering sense of emptiness or lack of fulfillment, or simply a feeling that you’re ready for a new and more meaningful chapter in your life.
I know this experience personally. Before becoming a therapist, I spent four years working as an engineer at a tech startup, often putting in 50–60 hour weeks. Over time, I became increasingly stressed and disconnected from my sense of purpose. What I later came to understand was that my work was misaligned with my values, strengths, and the life I wanted to be living. Making a major career change taught me firsthand what it takes to move through uncertainty and arrive at a place of greater balance and fulfillment.
In our work together, I help you gain a deep understanding of your interests, talents, values, dreams, and financial goals, while exploring career paths that truly fit your life. Not everyone needs to make a big career change, and sometimes fulfillment comes from a shift in perspective, boundaries, or how you show up in your current role. Together, we’ll clarify what kind of change is actually needed.
I believe that each person has a meaningful role to play in the world, and I would be honored to help you discover where you fit and how to move forward with clarity, purpose, and confidence.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
I got my start in this field by working career services, and I've worked with people who have been laid off (through corporate outplacement companies) as well as with undergraduate and graduate students in higher ed. I'm very familiar with coaching people around the tactical dimensions of career exploration and job searching, and the therapeutic dimensions of this topic come in around self-esteem, particularly Imposter Syndrome, inner critic, managing up, and overwhelm.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Acroding to research studies, the average person in the united states spends one third of their life time at work. So when we're asked in our younger years what we want to be when we grow up, it's the same as asking "What do you want to devote one third of your enire life span to?" That's a big question. One that often changes. Change is normal, and necessary. Yet, changing careers has a huge negative stigma around it in our society. Whole Wellness Therapy is passionate about promoting career-life balance, and idealy, helping our clients into careers that fit into their lifestyle, instead of the other way around.
