Ava Saheli

Ava Saheli

Therapist

Virtual • California


A core priority in my work is helping clients reclaim the power of their voice. Therapy is most meaningful as a collaborative process where you are not only heard, but truly attempted to be known. As an Iranian American therapist, I understand the richness and complexity of holding multiple cultural identities. I especially enjoy supporting Highly Sensitive People (HSPs), as well working with teenagers and adults navigating identity formation, relationships, and the often tender process of growing into themselves. There’s room here for deep healing, honest conversations, and the occasional ‘okay, but why is my brain doing THAT?’

Pleasure to meet you! My name is Iffy, and I was born and raised in Nigeria. After working in a Psych ER for over 22 years, I decided it was time to be able to treat my own patients. I went back to school and graduated from Brandman University in 2019 with my nurse practitioner degree. Four years later, I love what I do and the patients I treat. I truly believe that with the right work, tomorrow is always capable of bringing you a smile.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Pasadena

Finding postpartum therapists in Pasadena starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to focus on. Some therapists may also list perinatal experience or a perinatal mental health certification, such as PMH-C, which can signal added training in pregnancy and postpartum care.

Pasadena is a smaller city, so the number of nearby therapists with postpartum experience may vary by location, schedule, and in-person availability. Virtual appointments can expand your options, especially if your schedule changes week to week, you are coordinating infant care, or you are managing physical recovery. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how each person describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns before you book.

Therapy in Pasadena can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps make that process clearer. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking, then browse therapists who match your preferences, offer virtual or in-person care, and are ready to take new patients.
