Hi, I’m Sarvenaz, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist providing therapy for anxiety, identity exploration, life transitions, self-esteem, cultural stress, relationship challenges, and emotional burnout in Orange County, CA. I work with young adults, first-generation and 1.5-generation immigrants, and individuals from marginalized communities who may feel disconnected, overwhelmed, isolated, or pressured to suppress parts of themselves in order to fit societal expectations. My approach to therapy is collaborative, empowering, culturally responsive, and rooted in helping clients reconnect with their authentic selves.

I believe therapy should be a safe and affirming space where you can explore your emotions, identities, relationships, and lived experiences without judgment. My work focuses on helping clients navigate cultural expectations, systemic stress, belonging, loneliness, and the emotional impact of feeling misunderstood or unseen. Together, we can work toward building self-trust, emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of confidence and personal identity.

I am passionate about helping clients strengthen their relationship with themselves through creativity, curiosity, self-expression, and emotional insight. Whether you are navigating anxiety, identity questions, cultural pressures, relational stress, or major life transitions, therapy can help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected to who you truly are. My goal is to help you create a life where you feel valued, supported, and able to show up authentically.
