Elnaz Mayeh (WellBeCounseling)
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, EMDR Trained
What makes my practice different is the genuine, human connection I bring into the therapy space, along with a direct and honest approach. I’m not here to “fix” you or simply tell you what you want to hear. I’m here to meet you where you are—with warmth, compassion, and without judgment, while also being willing to challenge you when it can help you grow.
My approach is deeply humanistic, which means I see you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis or a set of problems. I create a space where you can be yourself, speak openly, and feel truly seen and understood.
I keep therapy down-to-earth, authentic, and collaborative, while helping you build greater self-awareness and reconnect with your own strength, clarity, and resilience. I’ll listen deeply, ask the hard questions, and offer honest perspective when it’s needed. Because sometimes growth means having someone in your corner who can both support you and gently push you forward.

Wyatt Okeefe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LPCC
I recognize being a nonconformist in any way, comes with challenges. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community I understand first hand the things we too commonly encounter. Despite the challenges, I recognize the power and beauty inherent in us all. When we fully embrace and embody our most authentic selves we find freedom from the expectations of others. Being on my own similar journey, I believe I am uniquely equipped to help you thrive while negotiating all life's many changes and challenges.

Dr. Maxwell Rappoport
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to make that step feel comfortable, productive, and worthwhile. I’m a clinical psychologist who believes meaningful progress happens when therapy feels like a genuine working relationship built on trust, openness, curiosity, and collaboration. I bring empathy, creativity, and a down-to-earth style to our work, adapting therapy to who you are rather than expecting you to fit a particular approach.
Clients often tell me they feel at ease with me quickly, which can make it easier to talk honestly about what isn’t working and understand the patterns that may be keeping them feeling trapped. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety or overthinking, relationship difficulties, performance pressure, unhealthy ways of coping, or simply feel that something in your life needs to change, we’ll work together to better understand what’s getting in the way and find practical ways forward.
I especially enjoy working with people who are thoughtful and curious about themselves but want more than insight alone. If you’re looking for therapy that is engaged, collaborative, and focused on helping you translate greater self-understanding into meaningful change, I’d be glad to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

I work with people struggling with anxiety, trauma, anxious attachment, identity concerns, relationship challenges, narcissistic abuse recovery, and borderline personality disorder. I also support family memebers and loved ones affected by BPD.

Hollywood is the Los Angeles neighborhood synonymous with the entertainment industry, where aspiring performers and industry workers live alongside long-term residents, recent immigrants, and one of the city's most visible homeless populations. Its mental health picture is distinctive: rejection and precarity in creative careers, the gap between the neighborhood's mythology and daily reality, and acute street-level need. Los Angeles' enormous therapy market — including many practitioners specializing in creative and entertainment clients — surrounds the neighborhood.
