Hello, My name is Mazda Lakpour. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. My goal is to help people have better relationships, get their feet on the ground and see life as is. My specialty areas are mood and anxiety, anger and stress management, co-occurring disorders, adjustment issues, personal growth and self-esteem. I am experienced with adults, teenagers, couples and families. I utilize an integrative approach of Solution Focused, Cognitive Behavioral and hypnotherapy interventions. I combine elements of psychology, hypnosis, meditation, and imagery with a pledge to always maintain the highest level of integrity, confidentiality, and wisdom. I do this work because I believe that the world becomes a better place when we assist each other towards our individual goals of greater happiness.

We all inherently harbor the capability to heal from emotionally painful experiences. I utilize an eclectic approach to psychotherapy based on where one is emotionally, physically and spiritually. I have experience in treating and helping clients reduce and better manage symptoms of stress, anxiety, lingering symptoms of trauma/PTSD and in coping with grief, loss and depression. I provide a safe and empathetic place for healing. Your thoughts, feelings and experiences can be brought to light, without fear of judgment. I provide coping skills and techniques on how to improve emotional health and well being. It takes courage to initiate the process of healing and to identify that something is not working for ourselves. I am here to support & empower you, during your journey towards healing and emotional well being. I have been practicing and providing psychotherapy for 16 years. I'm a multicultural therapist. I was born in Argentina and immigrated to the United States, when I was 6 years old. I grew up in the Bay Area of California. I provide psychotherapy in both English and Spanish. I have a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from UC Santa Cruz and a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Sofia University in Palo Alto, California.

Hi! I'm Michelle – a 40-something cisgender heterosexual woman with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I co-own a small private practice with my husband (also a therapist), and while we don’t have human kids, we do have multiple dogs who I am over the top with as a proud "dog mom." While this isn't something typically discussed in therapy, I’m liberal-leaning in my values and have a personal faith, though I wouldn’t describe myself as traditionally religious. My Focus Areas: Grief of all kinds (people, pets, jobs, life stages, etc. ).You do not have to have lost something to death to grieve it. Depression Life transitions (divorce, career shifts, big changes) My Approach: I practice Person-Centered Therapy, which means: You set the pace—I'm here to listen, not to judge or direct. I believe you are the expert on your life, and I work alongside you with empathy and support. I honor and support those on a spiritual path—whether you’re just beginning to trust your intuition or already walking closely with it. If your healing journey includes spiritual guidance, you’ll find a safe, grounded space here. I focus on building trust, validation, and a space where you feel safe to be yourself. I was born with Spina Bifida and use a wheelchair full-time. This perspective deepens my empathy and reminds me that no two experiences are the same—even when the issues look similar on the surface. My Style: I’m laid back and authentic while remaining professional. I don’t typically assign homework or suggest reading, though I might occasionally if it feels helpful. Who I’m Not a Fit For: I’m not trained to work with active addiction or severe trauma/PTSD-related symptoms. I am not a good fit for someone who is looking for therapist who provides a lot of structure and homework assignments. A Few Things to Know: Therapy Fit Matters: If I’m not the right fit for you, that’s okay! Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. You’re welcome to unassign and continue your search—your comfort is most important. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’m here if you think we’d be a good match. .
