Hello and welcome!
I am a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I have five years’ experience working at different levels of care, such as outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization (PHP) and crisis stabilization. I grew up in France but moved to the US to attend college in Massachusetts and then moved to California in 2011. I can provide treatment in French or English, and, perhaps especially, I can also empathize with the special challenges of international individuals and families. Personal growth is something on everyone’s mind, and teletherapy is more and more common for that reason. I have experience working with co-occurring issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, eating disorders, interpersonal difficulties, career changes, and grief/loss. I listen carefully to your needs and let that direct the therapy. I create a safe and empathetic place to sort through problematics and learn adaptive skills and healthy coping mechanisms.
I have experience working with individuals of all ages, including adolescents, young adults, couples and families. Together we'll root-out roadblocks, negative thoughts, limiting beliefs and other constraints that hold you back from experiencing your definition of success and well-being.
I am here to help. It takes tremendous courage to embark on the journey of personal growth and I consider it an honor to be part of this experience. I look forward to working with you!

Tofani is helpful and friendly. She is kind and understanding and really gets my problems when we discuss them. I appreciate her feedback and her willingness to work with me.

Tofani is great. She's an awesome listener and very compassionate and understanding. I've had good counselors in the past but she's amazing. Looking forward to continuing to work with her!

Tofani is truly amazing. She demonstrates that she genuinely cares about you and your well being. I’ve been in search for a counselor for a very long time and I have never connected with someone as much as I have with her. I look forward to our work together everyday and would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you for all that you do.
