Julia Jensen
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process between therapist and client. Together, we can explore what is keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and help you move toward greater clarity, resilience and peace of mind. I am committed to working compassionately and respectfully with each of my clients. I view myself as both a guide and a witness to the sacred path of struggle, resilience and transformation that is part of the human experience.
With more than 40 years of clinical experience, I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds, cultures, religions, ethnicities, ages and life stages. I offer in-person sessions in a warm comfortable, ADA accessible office, as well as virtual sessions or a hybrid of both.
I am looking forward to collaborating with you on your personal journey.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands? Do you find yourself worried, angry, depressed, confused; or unsure how to cope? Perhaps you feel that no matter what you do, it is never quite good enough. You may be holding these feelings inside, unsure of who to talk to, where to turn, or feeling confused by the well-meaning but conflicting advice of others. Please know that you are not alone.
Reaching out for therapy can take tremendous courage. Whether you are dealing with a crisis, life transition, relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, grief, or a desire for meaningful change, therapy can offer a safe and supportive space to be heard and understood. I will help you understand your feelings, work through what keeps you stuck, and guide you in moving towards healing, growth, and greater peace of mind.

Charles B. Walker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life's journey is filled with unexpected twists and turns—stress, anxiety, depression, and moments of feeling utterly overwhelmed. Often, we find our way through these challenges on our own. Yet, there are times when the guidance of a compassionate, licensed psychotherapist can be invaluable in restoring balance and steering your life toward greater fulfillment and joy. As your therapist, I offer more than just interventions; I provide a nurturing space to listen, understand, and actively support your path to well-being.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Remember when you felt turned on by your own life?
When you trusted yourself, felt present in your body, and knew how to ask for what you needed?
If life has started to feel more exhausting than exciting, you’re not alone. Whether you’re navigating dating, partnership, heartbreak, or the relationship with yourself, I’m here to help you deepen intimacy, rebuild self-trust, and rediscover what makes you feel alive. Research shows that sexual well-being, whether solo or partnered, is associated with greater confidence, relationship satisfaction, self-esteem, and overall quality of life.
As a certified Sexologist and Tibetan Five Element Tantra Practitioner, I work at the intersection of sex, science, and spirituality, offering calming, grounded tools and emotional processing. I studied Western and Eastern practices to support your sexual, mental, and relational health. I help you explore the stories, beliefs, and habits that shape how you love. I also help with sex education for teens and families in order to empower rather than shame.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
Therapy with me is interactive, honest, and supportive. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 20+ years working as a creative and A&R executive in entertainment—and I still work in music and TV today.
Life transitions can hit hard—whether it’s school, career shifts, relationships, divorce, or loss. I help you make sense of what’s happening and move through it in a way that feels more grounded and manageable.
I’m warm, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. My approach is practical and evidence-based, shaped around your story, your strengths, and what actually works for you. My writing has appeared in Psychology Today, Billboard, and more.
Sessions are available in Culver City or via telehealth.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
I most often support sensitive, empathic people who are often used to being the “go-to” person for others, yet feel overwhelmed and depleted themselves. If you’re ready to begin working toward making shifts in life, but it feels like a lot, I’ll provide a warm, supportive, non-judgemental space where you feel understood, and where you can feel comfortable identifying and working on your goals, to move toward a life that you love.
I offer online therapy for people throughout California and Maryland. Contact me for a free consultation call to have your questions answered. I look forward to connecting!
