TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
My background is in both psychoanalysis and neuroscience (doctorate) and I am also a Certified and Licensed Psychoanalyst. So I am able to bring both a background in research into mind/brain issues, and I am trained as a clinician. I have been working with trauma for many years, and most recently (2016) I have been working with traumatic brain injury patients (including professional athletes). I am grateful for my dual background in mind/brain, because all brain injured patients require both perspectives. In August of 2023 I published "The Complex Architecture and Healing of Traumatic Brain Injuries: Listening to The Brain" with Cambridge Scholars Publishing in the UK. This is the story (based on case histories) of the journey to find a "healing road" for all persons who have had serious disruptions in brain functioning. This is very, very challenging territory to work in. And in my experience, requires a great collaboration between doctor and patient. I am also the author of "Moon Over Seaville," the story of the hunt for a serial arsonist in Southern California (in 4 Episodes). Available everywhere under "Mystery/Thrillers." I have patients all across the country (via phone). Brain injuries can be healed!

Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many of the clients I work with feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or weighed down by stress, anxiety, low self-worth, or unresolved trauma. Some are navigating burnout or relationship struggles and aren't sure where to begin — they just know they want something to change. My role is to help clients reconnect with themselves, uncover new insight, and build a more grounded, meaningful life.
I also support clients struggling with trichotillomania, skin picking, and other BFRBs (body-focused repetitive behaviors). These patterns often develop in response to anxiety, trauma, or emotional stress. Using EMDR and evidence-based strategies, I help clients better understand their urges, reduce harmful behaviors, and build greater self-awareness and compassion.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker and EMDR-trained therapist offering online therapy for adults throughout California. My approach combines trauma-informed care, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), parts work, and other evidence-based tools to support lasting change. I tailor therapy to each individual’s needs and pace, offering a compassionate space where healing feels possible and manageable.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
Therapy with me is interactive, honest, and supportive. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 20+ years working as a creative and A&R executive in entertainment—and I still work in music and TV today.
Life transitions can hit hard—whether it’s school, career shifts, relationships, divorce, or loss. I help you make sense of what’s happening and move through it in a way that feels more grounded and manageable.
I’m warm, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. My approach is practical and evidence-based, shaped around your story, your strengths, and what actually works for you. My writing has appeared in Psychology Today, Billboard, and more.
Sessions are available in Culver City or via telehealth.

Patricia Alba
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You can’t bring yourself to face your past trauma. You’ve been to countless self-help programs and created a self-care routine, but the past still torments you. Deep down, there’s something you can’t confront, a darkness that won’t relent. You’ve been isolating yourself from your friends and family because you’re afraid you’ve become a burden. You feel alone, tired all the time, and annoyed at yourself for not being “over it.”
Sometimes, we need to look backward in order to move forward. I can be your guide, bringing over 20 years of experience resolving past traumas. Using DBT, IFS, EMDR, Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy and psychodynamic treatments, we will explore why the past is still present for you, and through this exploration, we’ll find a new path forward. Find the path to peace you’ve been searching for. Learn how to build resilience and establish healthy connections with your loved ones. Call today for a free consultation to free yourself from the pain of the past and look forward to a better future.
