Anxious, addicted, depressed people make decisions in life based on their feelings and they get worse, spiraling downward in emotional chaos and relational isolation. We help you learn how to ground your life in relational intelligence that brings stability to your life that your emotions then calibrate around.

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.

Josie Valderrama
Psychologist, PsyD
I know what it feels like to be frustrated by the struggle. As someone who became a therapist in my late thirties after going through my own "school of hard knocks," I sought to learn the tools to help alleviate mental blocks and suffering, as well as ease the pathway toward leading a fulfilling, value-based life. Now with over ten years experience in private practice, my clients relate that our work together has helped them overcome longstanding issues and achieve their goals while accelerating learning, healing and growth.
