ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in San Francisco, CA

I have worked in behavioral health for over 15 years and have learned that listening to patients and understanding their unique goals is essential to achieving positive outcomes.

I am an LMFT with over 10 years of experience in Mental Health services. I'm a straightforward, goal-oriented therapist who helps individuals, couples, and families navigate challenges with confidence and ease.

Sometimes the hardest part is not what happened. It is finding someone you can finally say it to. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish, and I work with people across all stages of life, from children and teenagers to adults and seniors. I specialize in supporting people navigating trauma, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, and the unique challenges that come with new and expecting parenthood. Wherever you are in your story, you do not have to carry it alone.

Hi, I’m Aimara, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about supporting others in their healing. I believe that while life can bring heavy challenges, no one has to navigate them alone. With a background in Clinical Psychology and experience in community & school-based mental health, I’ve dedicated my practice to helping children, teens, young-adults, and families find their footing during life’s most transitional moments. My goal is to create a space where you feel truly heard & together, we’ll look at the whole picture of your life to build the insight you need to move forward with confidence.

Respect, understanding, and compassion are balanced with training and experience that will facilitate the most healing process from start to finish. We all face challenges, and have unexpected life events that have the capacity to set us back. However, 25 years of experience working with children and adolescents, couples in crisis, men, and those with addictions has prepared me to be uniquely qualified to help you on a new journey..

My approach to clients is to see them both as individuals and also within the systems they operate in: familial, community, work-related, societal, or other. I help clients address personal issues in the context of their interpersonal relationships. I strive to support my clients in bringing to light their impact on others, and others’ impact on them while giving clients the skills to heal relational wounds and build healthier, meaningful connections. I work to help her clients connect with their values and find joy.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, grief, depression, or experiences from the past that continue to affect your present. Perhaps you find yourself reacting in ways that don't make sense, feeling disconnected from others, or carrying burdens that have followed you for years.

I believe that symptoms often make sense when we understand the story behind them.

For nearly 20 years, I have worked as a psychotherapist helping children, adolescents, adults, and families heal, strengthen relationships, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. My experience includes working in private practice, schools, pediatric healthcare settings, and community mental health programs. I also taught graduate students in counseling and family therapy programs, helping train the next generation of therapists.
