Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
I am passionate about working with twenty and thirty somethings navigate the tumultuous years of young adulthood. These years are often marked by questions of identity, a reckoning of one’s childhood, big life transitions, relationship challenges, feelings of hopelessness and anxiety about the future, and a general sense of feeling lost. These years are also ripe for self-discovery and developing a greater sense of purpose and meaning.
As a depth oriented psychotherapist, I won’t hold these challenges as pathology to be cured but rather as a natural part of the Self’s initiation into greater maturity. I see uncomfortable symptoms, such as depression and anxiety, as wise messengers that can guide us into a more whole and aligned life.

Hi, I’m Danielle Walker. I’m a licensed therapist who works with people navigating anxiety, trauma, codependency, attachment challenges, and relationship concerns.

My role is to walk alongside you as you find relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.

Guzel Safina
Therapist, MA, MS, NCC, LMFT
Sometimes life can look great on the outside, but inside, something just feels off. You might feel a little disconnected, uncertain about your future, or like something is missing, even if everything seems fine to others.
Therapy gives you a space to slow down, check in with yourself, and figure out what really matters. It’s a chance to reflect on what’s going on in your life, get clear on what you want, and find your way forward - without all the pressure. Whether you’re navigating some tough questions or just need someone to talk to, therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and find more balance.

Psychodynamic Therapy
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist, LCSW
I believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy. The therapy I practice is grounded in contemporary psychoanalysis, an approach that’s curious about your inner world and attuned to the unconscious patterns that shape how you think, feel, and relate to others. This kind of therapy doesn’t just reduce symptoms; it helps you understand yourself on an intimate level, creating lasting change in how you experience yourself and how you show up in your relationships.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked as a psychotherapist for more than 25 years. During those years, I have worked with adolescents and young adults in a variety of settings – hospitals, day treatment facilities, universities, schools, and private practice. My first job out of social work school was at Bellevue Medical Center in New York City with adolescents. The adolescents with whom I worked at Bellevue gave me an education in humor, creativity, and strength. I obtained counseling positions at both UCLA and USC working with students on their academic challenges and the stress that impacts their success. It is fair to say that I have learned how to listen to adolescents, understand how to connect with them, and help them to gain confidence and the strategies to improve themselves and their situation. But I have also grasped the stress of parents have when raising adolescents and provided support, understanding, and tools to manage this important role. I’ve been training my whole life for this. I grew up with a mother who taught children with learning disabilities and a father who always gave back to the community recognizing those less fortunate. I learned early through volunteering at my mother’s school, volunteering at mental health helplines, supporting friends throughout high school, becoming a mom, and throughout my work in social work that providing another person with a patient and listening ear could provide support and understanding. It could be said that all that I have experienced, shared, and studied so far has been training me for the role I cherish that of psychotherapist.
