Hi, my name is Anahita.

 

If you're a young adult figuring out who you are, in your sense of self, your relationships, or your place in the world, I'd love to walk alongside you in that exploration.

 

If you're a professional quietly navigating burnout, people-pleasing, or the feeling that you've drifted from yourself, we can work together to reconnect you with what matters.

 

And if you're seeking to understand your patterns in relationships, how you give, receive, protect yourself, or long for connection, that work is welcome here too, whether you're partnered or not.

 

Wherever you are in your journey, whether you have a clear sense of what you're carrying or simply feel that something needs to shift, I'm here to help you find your way.

 

Born and raised in the Bay Area, my multicultural background informs my therapeutic practice. I know that navigating the complexities of overlapping identities can be difficult, and I'm here to provide a space where all parts of you are seen and valued. Together, we will explore your unique story and find pathways to healing that resonate with your individual experience.

 

I offer a strengths-based, trauma- informed, and relational approach to therapy. My goal is to empower you by offering different perspectives that challenge and inspire your awareness and growth. Whether you're managing anxiety, processing trauma, or seeking deeper connections and self-understanding, I'm here to help you uncover your inner truth, strength, resilience, and capacity for self-compassion.
