Arpi Isayan

I’m Arpi Isayan, LCSW, an EMDR therapist in Los Angeles offering online therapy across California. I work with adults who look “high-functioning” on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside—often dealing with anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts/OCD, ADHD, and self-esteem or body image concerns.

I can help with

• High-functioning anxiety, chronic stress, burnout
• Trauma/PTSD, triggers, emotional overwhelm
• OCD/intrusive thoughts, rumination, reassurance cycles
• ADHD overwhelm, procrastination, perfectionism
• Self-esteem, body image, shame, people-pleasing

My style is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I use EMDR along with parts work (IFS-informed), mindfulness, and CBT/ACT-informed tools. I’ll help you understand what’s happening in your brain and body so you can feel real change, not just “know better” intellectually. I’m practical and compassionate: we’ll go at a steady pace, I’ll explain the “why,” and I’ll check in often about what’s working.

We’ll focus on what’s felt hardest lately and what you want to be different. I’ll ask a few gentle questions to understand your history and patterns, explain how I work (including EMDR), and we’ll decide together if it feels like a good fit. Most people leave feeling heard, less alone, and clearer on next steps.
