MAHZAD MOHAJER, MS, LMFT ASSOCIATE

As an immigrant, Mahzad is equipped with addressing the complexities of being multicultural in the U.S. In her experience as a therapist, she knows how difficult it is for clients to trust their therapist. It's hard to open up when you are talking to a complete stranger, once that trust is established, the client will find it easier to disclose to a therapist. And more so, what the client hopes to gain out of therapy in regard to reaching their goals. Mahzad's experience in healthcare has taught her the importance of compassion, clear communication, and understanding the impact of health on family dynamics. She brings a combination of empathy, strategic thinking, and a client-centered approach to every session. 

As an Iranian American woman who comes from a complex background and who has endured many experiences, she has the versatility to reach clients and understand the depths of their struggles. Mahzad believes that getting to know the client for who they are is extremely crucial to what they want to get out of therapy.
