Grief counselors and therapists in Roseville, CA

I’m Dr. Mariam Esfahani, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Doctorate in Psychology. With nearly two decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to helping adolescents and adults navigate trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. I also specialize in couples therapy, guiding partners toward healthier communication, connection, and conflict resolution.

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

Tired of feeling like you have to educate your therapist before you can actually begin? You deserve a therapist who actively celebrates who you are. I specialize in LGBTQI2-S affirmative care and work with individuals, couples, and families navigating identity, relationships, and the lifelong work of becoming more fully yourself. With over 8 years training mental health professionals in gender-affirming practices, you won't spend our sessions explaining the basics. You can just show up, exactly as you are.

Life can be challenging and at times unbearable, I want to help you find and develop life-enhancing qualities that you need in order to live the life you envision for yourself.

I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology at the Univeristy of Pepperdine. With over ten years of varied experience, I have the ability to work with a wide range of people who come from different walks of life, and I would love to help you.

Hello, Heather here. LMFT in Florida & California. My mission in therapy is to create a space where you will feel safe enough to just be yourself. I understand how difficult it is to seek counseling, to open up and share your experiences and struggles with another person. Therapy is my passion and I have over 25 years providing positive, successful & attainable results with various clients.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, understood, and connected to their own inner wisdom.

In addition to private practice, I have extensive experience in community mental health leadership, clinical supervision, and supporting high-acuity youth and families. These experiences have deepened my commitment to trauma-informed, relational, and strengths-based care.

I’m a licensed therapist with a background in supporting adults and teens through anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and relationship stress. I earned my graduate degree in counseling and have worked in both community-based and private practice settings, which has helped me understand the real-life pressures people carry—work, family, finances, identity, and burnout.

My style is practical and compassionate: we look at patterns, the stories you’ve learned to live by, and what it would feel like to respond differently—more grounded, more empowered, and more like “you.” I often integrate inner child work, trauma-informed care, and skills for emotional regulation and ADHD/executive functioning.

I primarily work with adults who want to improve communication, rebuild trust, and create more secure connection.
