Work with Dr. Najmeh

Movement, meditation, and painting — in beautiful rooms across Los Angeles and beyond, and one-on-one wherever you are.

Work with me one-on-one

A few times a year I take on a small number of private clients. For a first session, book the 90-minute one — it gives us room to get to know each other and go deep. Online, in English or Farsi.

Painting for Letting Go

Not a painting class. Paint, big brushes and cheap paper, used to work directly on perfectionism and control — with a neuroscientist who is also a working artist.
