Eliana Kohanzad
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, MDR
Whether you feel weighed down by stress, dating or your relationship or an unexpected life event, there is help and there is hope. You know that there must be more to life than the pressure you're experiencing but you’re not sure what that looks like for you or perhaps how to even get there. You want support not just in improving how you’re feeling right now, but also in identifying and healing the source of what’s brought you to this place. I specialize in helping adults navigate the dating world, relationships, friendships, and family conflict.
I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you’ll get tools that you can put into action in your day-to-day life, as well identify the root cause behind these challenges you’re facing. I’m here to help you grow and flourish in the way that’s right for you.
It is possible to move on from toxic cycles and relationships, heal from painful past experiences, and feel more confident and secure in yourself and I would love to help you get there. Together, we’ll work on communication, boundary setting, and embracing your authentic self. Ready to evolve? Schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation today!

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
At a personal level, I value substance over presentation, meaningful connection over polished appearances, and honesty delivered with care. I am curious about people, loyal in my relationships, and rarely interested in the easy or rehearsed answer. I appreciate intelligence, humor, directness, and the kind of conversation that makes time disappear.
My life has made me attentive to what people carry quietly and to the distance that can exist between how a life appears and how it actually feels. I believe in accountability without shame, depth without intensity for its own sake, and care that respects autonomy. I have a deep respect for the courage it takes to question what we have inherited, live with greater intention, and build something honest from the experiences that have changed us.
I am committed to showing up thoughtfully and consistently, honoring the responsibility that comes with being invited into someone’s inner life. This work matters to me because it offers the possibility of greater clarity, connection, and integrity, both within ourselves and in how we relate to others. I believe there is something quietly powerful about understanding yourself well enough to make choices rooted in truth rather than fear, expectation, or approval.

Dana Fogel-Stark
Therapist, M.S., LMFT
Welcome to my profile. My name is Dana Fogel-Stark and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorder and Couple/Relational Issues. I have been licensed as a psychotherapist for over 20 years and in full time private practice in the heart of Calabasas. My therapeutic approach is eclectic focused on both helping clients gain insight and awareness as to the origin and cause of their struggles as well as helping clients gain the tools and coping mechanisms needed to overcome their challenges. I believe that therapy is most effective when the therapeutic approach is tailored to the specific presenting issues that the client is facing. I create a personalized treatment approach with every new client based on their specific needs. I use Evidence Based Therapy to treat obsessive worries and ruminations, physical manifestations of anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety, and struggles with perfectionism/performance anxiety. My passion for using CBT is that I get to witness significant improvement with clients in a short period of time. In addition to CBT I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention as well as teaching emotional intelligence in my work with clients. I look forward to working with you.

Enlightened Self Family Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to seek the support you need.
You may be wondering who you’ll be meeting with as you begin your healing journey. I am a Tohono O'odham and Mexican American, neurodivergent, cisgender, bisexual female. My identity and lived experience are an integral part of how I show up in this work with care, humility, and a deep respect for each person’s story.
As a therapist, I am committed to ongoing learning and growth in service of my clients. Over the years in private practice, I have learned to trust my intuition while developing and refining different healing approaches. This process has deepened my connection to Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Brainspotting.
At my practice, I have had the pleasure of working with individuals who are deeply committed to their healing. Our therapists share this same dedication and are equally committed to the clients they serve.
In our work together, we thoughtfully interweave these modalities to support deeper, more integrated healing.
I feel a deep commitment to the people I have the privilege to work with and walk alongside in their process.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
I believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy. The therapy I practice is grounded in contemporary psychoanalysis, an approach that’s curious about your inner world and attuned to unconscious patterns that shape how you think, feel, and relate to other people. This kind of therapy not only reduces symptoms; it helps you understand yourself on a deeper level, creating lasting change in how you experience yourself and how you show up in your relationships.

Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Hi! My name is Omer and I'm a licensed therapist based in LA. My expertise is in supporting my clients understand themselves on a deeper level, recover from trauma, foster joy and improve relationships. Together, we’ll build awareness around anxieties, fears, triggers, or conflicts that get in the way of connection with others. We’ll work to identify your needs and further develop skills to communicate them. We'll spend time calling attention to beliefs, behaviors, "shoulds" and narratives that might no longer serve you. My approach to therapy is integrative and rooted in a relational lens, focusing on attachments, dynamics, and narratives. Many of my clients are LGBTQ+, men, creative professionals, and people facing life transitions such as coming out, starting a new career, or entering parenthood.
