Welcome! I am Anahita a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I specialize in helping individuals break free from unhealthy patterns such as codependency and abusive relationships. I assist clients in healing from trauma, addressing anger, managing anxiety and depression, navigating grief/ loss, and transitioning through life’s stages.
I believe that healing often occurs when we are in a safe environment where we can open up, explore what we’re dealing with, and acknowledge and embrace our pain, much like how a rose emerges from the thorn. My mission is to provide you with a safe and nurturing space. I look forward to building a therapeutic bond and fostering a healing connection with you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
