Courtland McPherson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
You’re feeling stuck, disconnected, burned out, or just not like yourself. Maybe your relationships feel strained. Maybe work consumes everything. Maybe you’re wondering, is this really it?
Many of the folks I work with aren’t in crisis. They’re functioning. But they’re carrying stress, loneliness, relationship challenges, self-doubt, or a growing sense that they’ve lost touch with themselves somewhere along the way.
I help folks like you navigate that stress, depression, those relationship challenges, life transitions, parenthood, and the quiet loneliness that often comes with modern life. My approach is straightforward, practical, and jargon-free.
Together, we’ll identify what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your relationships, and help you build a life that feels more meaningful, connected, and aligned with who you want to be.
Stop scrolling, stop second-guessing, and take the next step. Schedule your free 20-minute consultation today. The life you’re looking for won’t change until you do!

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Whatever the reason that brings you to psychotherapy at this time, I offer refuge in a confidential and nonjudgmental space where your story will be listened to with sensitivity and care. I am especially passionate about supporting people who are facing transitions: elders, people in midlife, students, artists, thinkers, and my fellow therapists. I am committed to helping couples manage conflict and envision new ways of communicating and being together. I specialize in accompanying you to those interior places that feel difficult, and in revisiting painful experiences that you can talk to no one else about. My practice is founded on our developing an authentic relationship of mutual regard. It will be my privilege to walk alongside you as we confront conflict, distress, and change to move together toward your healing, growth, and greater contentment in life. Please feel free to contact me for a brief complimentary online consultation.

Jeffrey Newburg
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MS
Our sense of safety is vital to our health in our relationships, work, and creative life. When our safety feels threatened by past trauma or current suffering in relationship, we go into survival mode. We isolate from others in fear of getting hurt again. But healing happens in relationship. Building the safety and trust you need, I will walk with you in your healing process and help you move out of survival and into thriving in your relationship with yourself and others. Using clinically validated modalities like EMDR, we will move out of the stuck places of self-criticism and shame, and into the growth fueled by compassion.
Life can be beautiful again. Using powerful modalities like EMDR and Ketamine Assisted EMDR (KA-EMDR), we can heal your trauma and get you grounded once again. I will lean on my experience, and we will cocreate the therapy you need. And, through our work together, we’ll help you experience ease in your body and peace in your mind.
Stop letting the pain of your past and the judgments of others define you. Start treating yourself with the care and compassion you deserve. Develop the confidence to create the relationships, career, and life you want. You don’t have to carry this alone. Call me today for your free 20-minute consultation, and let's begin the journey together.

Todd Deutsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected in your relationships or personal life can be difficult to navigate alone. As a therapist specializing in men’s therapy in Los Angeles, I’ve spent more than 20 years helping men, individuals, couples, and professionals better understand themselves, work through challenges, and build greater confidence, connection, and fulfillment.
My work in men’s therapy focuses on relationships, anxiety, anger, self-esteem, communication, emotional vulnerability, and the pressures men often carry in their personal and professional lives. I also work closely with high-functioning professionals who may appear successful on the outside while privately struggling with stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, self-doubt, or a sense that something is missing.
In addition to men’s counseling, I provide individual therapy and couples counseling in West Los Angeles, helping people navigate relationship patterns, improve communication, work through conflict, and develop healthier, more meaningful connections.
I'm also the author of Grounded Openness, a book exploring attachment, relationships, and how we can become more emotionally available without losing our sense of self. These ideas are an important part of my work, helping clients better understand how past experiences and relationship patterns influence their lives today.
My approach is warm, genuine, practical, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can speak openly, feel understood, and gain meaningful insight without judgment. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply looking to grow, my goal is to help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.
I offer in-person therapy in West Los Angeles and online therapy throughout California. If you're considering therapy and wondering whether we'd be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out for a complimentary 10–15 minute introductory call.

Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
My goal is to provide positive therapy for change, helping people move from merely surviving to thriving. I have worked in private practice since 1999 and during that time I have developed methods that have proven helpful for a number of challenges people seek treatment for. In addition, I have spent many hours getting extra training and skills to enhance my ability to help people who may be struggling.
