Registered Associate Marriage & Family Therapist

AMFT #164678, exp.

I believe therapy is not about having someone tell you what to do. It is about having someone who listens, asks thoughtful questions, and helps you make sense of what you are going through. I enjoy helping people understand patterns in their thoughts, relationships, and reactions and find new ways forward. My approach is warm, genuine, and conversational, and I believe you should be able to come to therapy as you are.

I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and a graduate of the University of San Francisco’s Counseling Psychology program. My clinical experience includes working with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, family conflict, trauma, and major life transitions. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, while tailoring therapy to each person’s needs.

Having grown up in Iran and later building my life in the United States, I value cultural curiosity and understand how culture, family, and life experiences shape how we see ourselves and our relationships. Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my family, staying active, and spending time with our dog. I feel grateful to do work that allows me to connect with people and support them through difficult or uncertain times.
