Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever felt like you were busy doing all the things you thought would bring you a happy life, yet felt alone and disconnected from yourself and others? These feelings are often when people turn to alcohol, drugs, food, shopping or relationships to try to create those feelings of happiness, contentment and joy. It can work for a short time however the key to moving forward is to understand the reasons we seek out these distractions. When we strengthen the relationship with ourselves, the outer world becomes much more balanced and fulfilling. In our work together, you’ll gain tools to care for your nervous system, set healthier boundaries, and create a more positive and sustainable way of living.

Susan Diamond, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, California, LMFT #100515
Congratulations on taking the first steps towards healing through therapy. I am honored that you are considering working with me. As a Marriage and Family Therapist with over ten years of experience, I have confidence in the power of therapy to foster insight and emotional wellbeing. I believe authenticity between therapists and clients is a key factor in how successful treatment will be. With this in mind, I will strive to create a genuine and welcoming environment, to listen deeply, and to join you in examining your experiences. My goal is to honor each person's unique needs while respecting the complex range of experiences that shape us all. I also try to create an environment that feels relaxed and down to earth, with plenty of laughter. Although therapy is serious work, seeing the humor and enjoying the absurdity of life goes a long way toward lightening the load!

Nardine Azab
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a woman navigating the midlife season of life are you finding yourself overwhelmed by anxiety and feeling stuck no matter what you do? You may be fed up with living in survival mode, feeling mentally exhausted, burned out and unable to quiet your mind. Perhaps anxiety has taken its toll on your closest relationships, work and body. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure, you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to regain control of your emotions. You’re ready to feel at peace with your mind and body. Most of all, you’re ready to show up in life as the best version of yourself!
Clients come to me looking for a therapist who truly gets women’s unique challenges—someone who’s down-to-earth, warm, and not afraid to go deeper. I offer a space where you feel seen and understood, yet challenged. Sessions with me blend honest conversations with space for processing hard emotions and learning practical tools for growth and lasting change.
As an experienced women’s therapist, I believe real change comes from understanding what’s keeping you stuck - not just coping, but finding what you need to shift from surviving to thriving. You don’t have to stay disconnected and worn down. You can experience relief and feel empowered and hopeful. Call today for a free 15-minute consultation to get started.
