Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Let's work through this together.
If you’re feeling worn out, anxious, and disconnected, and your current way of living feels off course, my therapeutic approach can provide the support you need. Much of our distress originates from deeply rooted, uncontrollable negative thoughts about ourselves and the world, embedded during our upbringing. Often, we remain unaware of what keeps us stuck, making it challenging to find a way out.
I've been fortunate to assist numerous individuals whose lives felt unsustainable and unfulfilling, guiding them to uncover their truest, most vibrant selves. This process is not about making minor adjustments; it's about profound transformation. The life you desire is closer than you realize, but the path to it isn’t always clear when traveled alone.
Together, we will explore evidence-based techniques, enriched with the wisdom of philosophy, the tranquility of Buddhism, the strength of Stoicism, the practice of Mindfulness, and the insights of the mind-body connection through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This isn’t just about self-improvement; it’s a deep awakening, liberating you from the negative thoughts and emotions that have held you back."

Piyola Derbarseghian- Sex & Relationship Therapist
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
You deserve to feel seen, supported, and connected in your relationships, in your body, and in your sense of self. Whether you're navigating relationship struggles, sexual challenges, cultural expectations, or past trauma, therapy can be a powerful space for healing and growth. I work with individuals, couples, and polycules who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, and help them move toward deeper intimacy, emotional clarity, and self-trust.
My approach integrates trauma-informed care with a deep respect for culture, identity, and lived experience. As an Armenian therapist, I understand the weight of generational patterns, unspoken family rules, and the tension between tradition and individuality. If you come from a background or a culture where emotions or sexuality are hard to talk about, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to do this alone.
You bring the strength. I bring the tools. Together, we can create space for you to reclaim your voice, your relationships, and your sense of wholeness.

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.

David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Therapy is a place to talk through what’s been weighing on you and start to understand it a little better. Whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship stress, it can be hard to sort it out on your own.
In our work together, the focus is on helping you make sense of what you’re going through and finding ways to move forward that actually feel doable. I use approaches like EMDR and Gottman-informed therapy, but just as important is having a space where you can be open and feel understood.
You don’t need to have everything figured out to start. We can take it one step at a time and go from there.

I specialize in helping trauma survivors, especially survivors of childhood and/or adult sexual trauma, reclaim the life they were meant to live. If you're struggling with symptoms related to trauma, such as being easily triggered, anxiety or depression, dissociation (feeling spaced out, numb, unable to ground, or connect to your body's sensations) trouble sleeping, nightmares, or flashbacks and more, you're in the right place (for an extensive list of trauma symptoms check out my post https://www.healingsexualtrauma.com/post/what-are-trauma-symptoms). My goal is to help you get the results you're looking for while offering lots of needed compassion and understanding. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook, the upcoming Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal (2024), and teacher of the PESI Sexual Trauma Clinical Training.
