Karina Fakheri, MS, OTR/L brings expert, one-on-one occupational therapy to your home — a Cedars-Sinai clinician with more than fifteen years of experience, with the discretion, continuity, and attention you expect.
Beverly Hills · Bel Air · West Hollywood · Hancock Park · Studio City
For more than fifteen years I have helped people recover strength, movement, and independence — first at the bedside in one of Los Angeles' finest hospitals, and now privately, in my clients' own homes.
My work is deeply personal. Healing does not happen in fifteen-minute visits or one-size-fits-all protocols — it happens when someone truly listens, understands your story, and designs care around the life you want to return to. Recovery is physical, but it is also profoundly human. So many of the people I work with are facing one of the hardest chapters of their lives, and what they need alongside skilled care is simple: to feel seen, heard, and never alone in it.
Increasingly, my clients want more than therapy alone — so my practice is growing into a more integrative one, where I can also help coordinate the trusted specialists they need. But it always begins with the same thing: expert, personal care from me.
— Karina Fakheri, MS, OTR/L
“People heal faster when they feel truly seen. Before anything else, I listen — because knowing someone is genuinely in your corner is where recovery begins.”
Karina Fakheri, OTR/L
Karina Fakheri is a licensed occupational therapist who has spent her career at the forefront of neurological rehabilitation. She began at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in 2007, working in inpatient rehabilitation with individuals recovering from stroke, brain injury, and neurodegenerative conditions — and she continues to practice there today in the neurological outpatient and neuromuscular disorders clinic.
Alongside her hospital work, Karina provides private, in-home therapy to a select group of clients across Los Angeles. Her approach is holistic and unhurried, treating not only physical limitations but the whole person — restoring balance, function, and the confidence to live fully. More about Karina Fakheri →

Occupational therapy is the heart of the practice — and as it grows, Karina can help coordinate a hand-selected team so more of your care comes from people you trust.
Recovery rarely fits inside a single discipline. Karina leads and oversees your care personally — and, as the practice expands, she can coordinate trusted providers so every part of your wellbeing is handled with the same standard, privacy, and continuity.
Led personally by Karina — neurological rehabilitation, post-surgical recovery, and daily function.
Coordinated with vetted, in-home physical therapists to restore strength and mobility.
Trusted personal trainers for safe, guided strength, conditioning, and functional fitness at home.
Hands-on John F. Barnes myofascial release for chronic pain, tension, and restriction.
Longevity, mobility, and recovery support tailored to your goals and your home.
A single point of contact who manages your team, schedule, and plan with total discretion.
Karina provides occupational therapy and myofascial release directly; physical therapy and private training are delivered by independently licensed specialists she personally coordinates.
Traditional healthcare too often offers quick, temporary fixes. I believe real healing begins by connecting with you personally — understanding your goals, your home, and the life you want to reclaim.
Working one-on-one and without the constraints of a busy clinic, I design each plan around what matters most to you. Care should never feel transactional. What matters most to me is that the people I work with feel genuinely seen and heard — cared for as whole people, not cases on a schedule — because that human connection is part of what helps us heal.
