Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
You understand why you struggle in relationships, yet the same patterns keep showing up. You may overthink, seek reassurance, struggle with trust, avoid vulnerability, shut down during conflict, or feel caught between wanting closeness and fearing it. Often, these patterns are rooted in trauma, attachment wounds, and earlier relationship experiences that continue to shape how you connect with others. I help individuals and couples heal these underlying patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, and build healthier, more secure relationships through a holistic approach that integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, attachment work, and mindfulness.

Alejandra Kenia Ipina
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
You don't have to continue pretending you are perfectly fine. Whether you are an eldest daughter, only daughter, or mom, you may have learned early on to take on more responsibility in relationships. Deep down, you may be struggling with believing your needs are important. Carrying heavy family expectations, chronic guilt, and the pressure to be perfect takes a heavy physical and emotional toll. If you're exhausted from self-neglect and feel like your tired of taking on more responsibility, this is the space for you. I help oldest daughters, only daughters and those who grew up with more responsibility feel safe in their body.
I'm Kenia an LMFT with 9 years of experience helping high achieving, women heal from childhood trauma and break the cycle of survival patterns.
Working together we use somatic therapy to release stored survival tension and nervous system stress. Explore complex family dynamics without losing yourself. Rebuild self-trust, repair confidence, and feel secure in who you are.
My approach is grounding, nurturing and empowering. Ready to take the first step? Call me or text me to book your free 15 minute consultation.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have the utmost honor and care for my clients who enlist their trust in me to walk side by side with them on this rich, vulnerable, intimate, and sometimes challenging journey toward transformation. I am passionate about helping people fully awaken in their lives, even amidst the collective trauma we are currently experiencing. In learning how to access your vast unconscious world, you will have an increase in self-awareness, developing a more intimate and authentic relationship with yourself and others. Together, with curiosity, we can examine the the roots beneath your anxiety, often discovering defenses, coping mechanisms and survival strategies that are no longer serving you. In a safe, empathetic, warm, and nonjudgmental environment, I will lovingly challenge you to look at your constructed narratives and unhealthy patterns, while exploring your conscious and unconscious beliefs you have about yourself and the world. I believe the deepest healing comes from feeling all of the feelings you were unsafe to feel when you were a child, perhaps unlocking emotion you didn't know how to express. Time and time again, I've seen this lead to less somatic symptoms, less physical and emotional suffering, a deeper sense of self-trust, and a profound sense of freedom. I've had the honor of working with clients "in the room" for 14 years, supervising associate therapists for 9 years, and teaching graduate psychology students in the LGBTQ specialization at Antioch University for 4 years. I have extensive experience and expertise working with the LGBTQ population, creatives in the entertainment industry (showrunners, writers, directors, producers, actors, network executives, etc), parents, codependency, relational issues and trauma. My approach is experiential and depth-oriented, integrating psychodynamic therapy, ISTDP, EMDR and EFT. I believe these modalities lend to a meaningful and rich therapeutic relationship, leading to fully integrated and lasting change.
