Los Angeles, California therapist: Timothy Weymann, licensed clinical social worker
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Timothy Weymann

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
What makes my therapy practice exceptional is the balance I bring between heart and science. I don’t believe therapy should feel clinical or distant—it should feel human. I create a space where clients feel deeply seen, heard, and respected, while also drawing from research-based approaches that are proven to create meaningful change. I am intentional about building genuine relationships, because I know healing happens in connection. At the same time, I stay grounded in evidence-informed methods so our work is focused, practical, and effective. My clients aren’t just supported—they’re empowered. They leave with insight, tools, and a stronger sense of themselves. Part of what makes my practice great is that it is not one-size-fits-all. It’s thoughtful, compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each individual.

Valley Village, California therapist: Layla Ashley Psychotherapy, marriage and family therapist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships can bring our deepest joy, but they can also surface painful patterns. If you and your partner find yourselves caught in the same arguments, struggling to truly hear one another, or feeling emotionally distant, you’re not alone. Many couples reach a point where communication breaks down and the connection they once felt begins to feel strained or uncertain. Sometimes earlier life experiences, family patterns, or stressors quietly shape the way we relate, making it harder to stay close even when the love is still there. With more than two decades of experience working with couples, I help partners slow down the cycle of conflict and understand what’s really happening beneath the surface. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in relational and attachment-based work. I support couples in developing healthier communication, repairing emotional wounds, and building a stronger foundation of trust and intimacy. I’m also particularly attuned to the needs of highly sensitive people and those who want a thoughtful, depth-oriented approach to relationship growth. Whether you’re preparing for a deeper commitment, working to repair trust after a rupture, or trying to rediscover connection after years together, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward. I also support individuals navigating dating, heartbreak, or relationship transitions. Together we’ll work toward clearer communication, emotional safety, and a relationship that feels more conscious, supportive, and alive. If you’d like to explore whether this work might be a good fit, feel free to reach out to schedule a complimentary consultation.

Newport Beach, California therapist: Emma Esper, marriage and family therapist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Emma Esper

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
As a therapist and clinical counselor, I help to hold the weight of anxiety, trauma, depression, and relational conflict, and encourage self acceptance. There is beauty in showing up for yourself, and bravery in turning towards struggle. When we deny our struggle, we deny a part of us that is longing to be seen. Struggle and suffering are hard to face, as it often leaves us feeling broken. Many of us were never taught to embrace our flaws and imperfections. What if we could see the broken pieces of ourselves, the parts of us that are scarred, and view them with compassion? What if we saw our scars as marks of courage and resiliency? The journey towards wholeness includes accepting each part of ourselves, the part that is joyful, the part that laughs, the part that hurts, the part that feels empty. My work is based on the hope that we can step into our authentic selves, to feel without shame, accept our darkness, live mindfully in our own light, and recognize that who we are is enough.
