About My Clients

Mava brings a depth of expertise to supporting individuals through life's most sensitive challenges. Her integrative approach combines traditional psychoanalysis with innovative somatic and emotionally focused therapies, creating a gentle container for processing trauma, grief, and relational wounds. Drawing from hypnotherapy and orgone therapy, she helps clients reconnect with their innate healing wisdom while navigating childhood trauma, sexual assault recovery, and domestic violence.

My Background and Approach

With several years of specialized training in psychoanalysis, I bring knowledge and firsthand experience to every therapeutic interaction. I have had roles as a sexual assault and domestic violence counselor. My aim is to provide a safe and supportive space for my clients, enabling them to reconnect with their inner selves. Utilizing psychodynamic therapy, CBT, solution-focused brief therapy, and DBT, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of each client. I am also a skilled hypnotherapist and received specialized training at the Dr. Sue Johnson Institute for Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). I serve both English and Farsi-speaking clients and in addition to traditional therapeutic approaches, I incorporate somatic interventions to address the mind-body connection and promote holistic healing. Believing in the innate resilience of individuals, I strive to empower clients to tap into their inner strength and find healing from within.
