the Community

Understanding West Hollywood

West Hollywood has always attracted people who refuse to be ordinary — artists, entrepreneurs, creatives, communities who fought to live on their own terms. The Sunset Strip, Santa Monica Boulevard, the Design District — the neighborhood reflects that energy back.

But visibility has a cost. When your identity is something you have worked to build, it can be hard to admit that parts of you still feel unfinished. The neighborhood runs on energy: the social calendar, the career hustle, the constant reinvention. Slowing down can feel like falling behind. And so the question of what you actually need, underneath all of that motion, keeps getting pushed to later.

My practice is affirming and welcomes clients from West Hollywood. Not to take apart what you've built, but to understand what it protects. If you're interested in starting therapy, schedule a consultation to see if we're a good fit.

the Approach

Why Work With Me

Depth Over Quick Fixes

I practice psychodynamic therapy, an approach that honors complexity and resists the pressure to simply manage symptoms. We work toward lasting insight, not temporary relief.

Telehealth Across California

Whether you're in West Hollywood or anywhere in California, we can work together via secure video sessions. Many clients find telehealth offers greater flexibility and consistency.

Thoughtful Pacing

Meaningful change doesn't follow a timeline. Sessions unfold at the pace your process requires, sometimes slow and reflective, sometimes more active and direct.

Cultural Sensitivity

As a bilingual therapist (English/Farsi), I understand how cultural background shapes our inner lives. I work with clients across identities and experiences.
