Danielle Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hi, I’m Danielle Walker. I’m a licensed therapist who works with people navigating anxiety, trauma, codependency, attachment challenges, and relationship concerns. I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive space to share what’s on their mind—even the things that feel too heavy, confusing, or unspoken. My role is to walk alongside you as you find relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
You may be struggling in your relationship—caught in recurring conflicts, feeling disconnected, or longing to feel close again. Perhaps you and your partner are navigating a major life transition, trying to rebuild trust, or finding yourselves stuck in patterns you can't seem to change. Or maybe you're coming to therapy on your own, feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, questioning the direction your life is taking, or carrying grief or experiences that continue to shape you.
Therapy offers a space to slow down and listen more deeply to what is happening beneath the surface. Together, we'll explore not only the challenges that bring you to therapy, but also the underlying patterns, emotions, beliefs, and life experiences that may be shaping them.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and depth-oriented. With couples, I draw especially from attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help partners understand the deeper patterns beneath conflict, strengthen emotional connection, rebuild trust, and create a more secure and fulfilling relationship. With individuals, I draw from psychodynamic, attachment-based, and depth psychology perspectives to explore recurring patterns, strengthen self-awareness, heal old wounds, and cultivate a more authentic relationship with yourself.
I believe symptoms such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or feelings of emptiness often have important stories to tell. Rather than focusing solely on managing symptoms, I help clients understand the deeper roots of their struggles while developing practical ways to create greater balance, resilience, connection, and well-being in daily life.
I provide telehealth therapy for adults and couples throughout California and welcome the opportunity to learn more about what brings you to therapy and whether we may be a good fit to work together.

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!
