Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hi, my name is Monica Huston. I feel genuinely driven to help individuals, couples, and families work through the challenges that can feel overwhelming or hard to make sense of on your own.
My approach to therapy is thoughtful and grounded in understanding what’s beneath the surface. I pay close attention to patterns, relationships, and the ways past experiences continue to shape the present. I aim to create a space that feels both steady and honest—where you can slow down, explore what’s really going on, and begin to experience yourself and your relationships differently over time.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
My approach to therapy is straightforward — understand what is getting in the way, figure out why, and build a clear path forward. I work with adults, couples, and high-achieving professionals who are ready to make real changes, not just talk about them.
I am Dr. Lyndsay Elliott, a licensed clinical psychologist with a PsyD and a postdoctoral fellowship from UCLA. For over 20 years I have provided evidence-based psychotherapy, psychological evaluations, consultations and expert witness testimony to clients navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, relationship conflict, narcissistic abuse recovery, couples conflict, infertility, reproductive mental health, postpartum depression, family conflict, and major life transitions.
My style is warm and engaged, but also direct. Therapy should be useful — sessions that deliver genuine insight, practical tools, and honest feedback that actually moves the needle. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused intervention, and trauma-informed care, tailoring every treatment plan to each client's specific goals and circumstances.
I am PSYPACT authorized, serving adults and couples via secure telehealth therapy across 40+ states — making expert psychological care accessible wherever you are.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Wondering how to balance your mood, deepen intimacy, and create more connection in your life and relationships? Many people feel disconnected from their bodies, unsure how to express their needs, or caught in patterns that limit closeness, satisfaction, and sexual confidence. Whether you are single, partnered, or moving through a breakup, you can learn to feel at home in your body again and reconnect with what genuinely turns you on and supports your emotional well-being. Research shows that a positive, satisfying sex life, solo or with a partner, can improve your confidence, mood, relationships, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. I’m here to help you become more sensually confident and live a fulfilling, successful life.
I am a Certified Sexologist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and Tibetan Tantra Practitioner. My method is practical and embodied, blending ancient wisdom with scientifically supported approaches to sexual and relational health and nervous system regulation. I work at the intersection of sex, science, and spirituality, offering grounded tools and emotional processing that are easy to apply in real life.
I see myself as a guide rather than an authority. I love to listen and support clients in building self-trust and practical skills to walk their own path. My practice is inclusive, compassionate, and body-affirming, designed to help you become more self-sufficient, sensual, and fully alive at your own pace. I work with both individuals and couples. I also provide sex education to teens and families.

Best Life Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LMFT, APCC

At our practice, we provide a warm and supportive space where women can slow down, process what they’re going through, and feel truly understood. Our therapists specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and the emotional challenges that can come with motherhood and modern life.
We believe therapy should feel collaborative, practical, and empowering. Together, we’ll help you better understand the patterns that are contributing to stress, strengthen your boundaries, and develop tools that allow you to feel more grounded and confident in your daily life.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. If you’re feeling unsure, that’s completely normal—we’re here to make the process feel comfortable and supportive from the very first conversation.
