Lori Karny LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and MSG, Masters in Gerontology
I have been in practice as a clinican for over 20 years and appreciate the opportunity and interaction developed within the therapeutic relationship. I value the opportunity to help people during a time of need, interpersonal challenges. During my career I have counseled children, youth, survivors of sexual/physical abuse. I was a Clinical Supervisor or Program Director at several non-profit organizations. I also worked at the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Hospital in the Outpatient Adult Psychiatry Program where I provided psychotherapy for adults of all ages and diverse backgrounds. I have also counseled men and women with miltary service history, and volunteered to provide DACA students free therapy for 4 years through a unique program.

Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many of the clients I work with feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or weighed down by stress, anxiety, low self-worth, or unresolved trauma. Some are navigating burnout or relationship struggles and aren't sure where to begin — they just know they want something to change. My role is to help clients reconnect with themselves, uncover new insight, and build a more grounded, meaningful life.
I also support clients struggling with trichotillomania, skin picking, and other BFRBs (body-focused repetitive behaviors). These patterns often develop in response to anxiety, trauma, or emotional stress. Using EMDR and evidence-based strategies, I help clients better understand their urges, reduce harmful behaviors, and build greater self-awareness and compassion.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker and EMDR-trained therapist offering online therapy for adults throughout California. My approach combines trauma-informed care, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), parts work, and other evidence-based tools to support lasting change. I tailor therapy to each individual’s needs and pace, offering a compassionate space where healing feels possible and manageable.

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.

Best Life Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LMFT, APCC
On the outside, you may appear successful and capable—but internally you may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stretched too thin. Our practice offers thoughtful, compassionate therapy for women who want more than just coping—they want deeper clarity, stronger boundaries, and meaningful change.
At our practice, we provide a warm and supportive space where women can slow down, process what they’re going through, and feel truly understood. Our therapists specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and the emotional challenges that can come with motherhood and modern life.
We believe therapy should feel collaborative, practical, and empowering. Together, we’ll help you better understand the patterns that are contributing to stress, strengthen your boundaries, and develop tools that allow you to feel more grounded and confident in your daily life.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. If you’re feeling unsure, that’s completely normal—we’re here to make the process feel comfortable and supportive from the very first conversation.

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.
