Farnaz Safaei, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

I believe that healing and growth happen in the context of safety, connection, and understanding. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based methods that help clients create lasting change. I specialize in working with couples to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy using the Gottman Method. With individuals, I draw from psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) approaches to help uncover patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. Whether you are navigating conflict in your relationship or struggling to feel like yourself again, I'll meet you with compassion, honesty, and a focus on helping you feel more grounded and empowered in your life.

My practice provides a calm, supportive space where couples, teens, and adults can explore difficult emotions and strengthen their relationships. I offer evidence-based approaches tailored to each client's needs, with a focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and understanding patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Sessions are collaborative and paced at your comfort level, and I provide practical tools you can use outside of therapy. I also offer secure Telehealth sessions for clients who prefer virtual support or need more flexibility with scheduling.
