Helping You Navigate Life’s Challenges with Confidence, Clarity, and Care.

Since 2002, I have guided clients through life’s most complex challenges, offering support in pre-marital, marital, and individual therapy. I’ve helped countless individuals and families overcome trauma, anxiety, and relationship struggles. Working with a rich diversity of cultures—Jewish, Muslim, Iranian, American, Hispanic, and more—I honor each person’s background, ensuring a safe, empathetic space. I believe that when you trust yourself and seek the right support, you can heal and thrive in every aspect of your life.

I use a blend of therapy methods tailored to each client: CBT, Awareness Integration Therapy (AI-T), EFT, and psychodynamic approaches. I adapt based on each person’s needs and their cultural context, ensuring a personalized, respectful, and effective therapeutic journey. I accept Anthem, Carelon and more..

I speak fluent Farsi and English. work with individuals from differdiversity of ethnicities and culturesJewish, Muslim, Iranian, American, Hispanic, and many others. I recognize that each person’s cultural background shapes their values, relationships, and worldview. Thus, I do not apply a one-size-fits-all approach; instead, I meet clients where they are.
