Bahareh Yazdi

Welcome...

I am a licensed mental health therapist with over 25 years of experience and bring a depth of knowledge and compassion to my work with individuals and couples. I hold a Master’s degree in Existential Phenomenological Psychology which I use as a guidance to help you explore meaning, purpose, and authenticity in your life. I am a trauma specialist, certified in prolonged exposure therapy and a Level 1 Gottman therapist, I support healing from past wounds while strengthening relationships in the present. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel understood, empowered, and capable of meaningful change.

You don’t have to face things alone. My goal is to walk alongside you as you gain clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of possibility in your life.

My approach blends practical tools with deep understanding. Using methods like CBT, DBT, and Prolonged Exposure Therapy, I help you move through anxiety, trauma, and emotional overwhelm at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we’ll build skills to manage difficult emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and create lasting change.

I also work with individuals and couples to navigate conflict in a more connected and constructive way—helping you communicate more clearly, feel more understood, and strengthen your relationships.

Your first session is a space for us to get to know each other and begin building a foundation of trust. We’ll talk about what brings you in, what you’d like to get out of therapy, and any important background that will help guide our work together. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your experiences, but you’re always in control of what and how much you share.
