About Me

Born and raised in Iran, I received my higher education in the American University system, including 12 years of graduate school in California. I am bilingual and fluent in English and Persian (Farsi). I have been married for over 40 years and raised two high-functioning children who succeeded through graduate school and professional life. I have been licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in California, and worked in private practice since 1993. I had an office in Encino for 25 years, and now in Sherman Oaks, as well as a second office in Westlake Village, Ca.

Since 2020 I have offered secure video sessions to aid in navigating busy lifestyles and long distance relationships.
