Aimen Bukhari
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I am a California-based therapist working with adults who feel mentally exhausted, emotionally stretched, and responsible for more than they can keep carrying.
From the outside, you may look like you are managing life well. Internally, your mind keeps going, your body feels tense, and it is hard to fully rest. You may feel burnt out, overwhelmed, or constantly “on,” even when nothing is wrong.
You might struggle to say no, take on too much, or feel guilty slowing down. Work stress, family expectations, and unspoken responsibilities can leave little space for you, leading to exhaustion, irritability, or feeling disconnected from yourself.
In our work, we go beyond surface-level coping. We look at the patterns underneath, including over-responsibility, people-pleasing, guilt, and long-standing roles you have learned to carry.
Therapy starts with slowing things down and helping you feel understood without pressure to have everything figured out. Over time, you begin to respond differently to stress, feel more grounded in your body, and make decisions that feel clearer and more aligned.
I offer private pay therapy for those seeking thoughtful, consistent, and depth-oriented care.

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.
