Gustavo Olvera SANTOS
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hello! I'm Gustavo Olvera and I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT), serving clients via telehealth throughout the State of California. My long time approach to therapy is to meet the client where they are and work with them to identify goals that will help them improve their quality of life. I believe that we all have the potential to succeed in life and the potential to achieve greatness. A healthy mind is key to success, as we often have to make critical decisions on a daily basis. I believe we can all achieve our desired goals by increasing and maintaining a positive outlook on our mental health.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
The concept of self-love is a mystery because you often default to a painful pattern of beating yourself up. Being productive is important to you but instead you feel overwhelmed and burnt out. You want to be in the flow with your partner but rather you are constantly at odds leaving you feeling lonely and isolated. Cultivating deeper relationships is a value to you but you feel disconnected, anxious and stressed. These and other of life’s great emotional impasses are what often lead people to therapy.
I believe the most valuable impact therapy can have on you is a deeper understanding of yourself and who you want to show up as in the world. Through consistent, gentle, and thoughtful investigation of oneself, there can be considerable growth. The deeper we are able to go together, the more attuned you will become with yourself and others.
I provide my clients with directive, empowering therapy aimed at challenging you to look at yourself in a more introspective and curious way. My clients walk away from therapy with me feeling inspired and motivated to make meaningful change in their life. My main areas of focus include: entrepreneurs, entertainment industry professionals, gay men & couples.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
You may be successful in many areas of your life and yet find yourself struggling internally. Perhaps you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in recurring relationship patterns, or questioning the direction your life is taking. Maybe you're carrying grief, navigating a major transition, or simply sensing that something important is asking for your attention.
Therapy offers a space to slow down and listen more deeply to your experience. 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. As insight develops, new possibilities for growth and change can emerge.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and depth-oriented. I believe that 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, and well-being in daily life.
Drawing from psychodynamic, attachment-based, and depth psychology perspectives, I support clients in exploring recurring patterns, strengthening self-awareness, healing old wounds, and cultivating a more authentic relationship with themselves.
I provide telehealth therapy for adults 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.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I started Eff Shame Therapy because I believe shame is at the root of most of what brings people to therapy — and because I think it deserves to be named directly rather than tiptoed around. We are living in a world that generates shame faster than most of us can process it, and many of us are carrying wounds from abuse, trauma, and systemic harm that have never had a real place to land and heal.
I work with adults who are ready to stop managing their pain and start actually moving through it. My approach is trauma-informed, shame-free, and genuinely collaborative — I bring some of the most effective healing tools available including EMDR, Flash Technique, and ketamine-assisted EMDR, and I meet you exactly where you are.
This work matters to me. Not as a concept but in the room, session by session, with real people who deserve more than survival.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.
