Please note: I work with adults 40-64 on a case-by-case basis.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 24 years of experience in California, I specialize in supporting young adults aged 18-35 through life’s transitions and challenges with clarity and confidence.

I believe you can discover the root of your struggles and are capable of overcoming hardships. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflicts, or issues with motivation, self-esteem, or confidence, I’m here to help.

Taking the first step toward change can feel overwhelming, but it’s also an act of courage and self-care.

My style is warm, direct, honest, and rooted in compassion.

Your journey is unique, and I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are.

I am a therapist serving children, families and adults navigating anxiety, depressive symptoms, relationship issues and life adjustments. Sometimes you need a little help navigating life stressors, obstacles or discovering healthy forms of coping skills. I received my Bachelors at San Francisco State University in Psychology and completed my Masters at California State University East Bay in Counseling with a concentration in Marriage Family Therapy.

Hi, I'm Aviva, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Life can become difficult when stress, burnout, relationship problems, body image concerns, or past experiences begin to affect your daily life. Sometimes people seek therapy because they are exhausted from trying to manage everything on their own. I believe in working together to create solutions that will give a different perspective or a way to break patterns that no longer work for them. I have experience with patterns that no longer suit you and have learned methods to work through them.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process where you can feel heard, understood and supported. I bring warmth, compassion and many years of experience to my work with clients. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgemental space where you can explore challenges, gain insight and make meaningful changes.

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I believe therapy should be a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout the process.
