Hi there! My name is Masood Moghaddam, and I am a Clinical Social Worker, licensed in California, experienced psychotherapist and a life coach. Thank you for taking the time to learn how my counseling and therapy services can be a useful tool for yourself or someone you care about. My expertise has offered me opportunities in working with clients with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges and OCD. I have helped people struggling with traumatic events in their life, PTSD, and emotional and/or physical abuse. **Please note, I only take clients from California and parts of Canada due to time restrictions. My counseling style is calm, interactive and engaging. My approach combines positive psychology, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I believe relationships are the origin of our greatest growth yet can also be the source of our considerable challenges. My goal in our work together is to help you as an Individual, Couple, or Family to better understand these multifaceted relationships. Often these complicated relationships come intertwined with personal issues stemming from our past. As your therapist, I will provide empathy, compassion, guidance and if needed an alternative point of view to help you and/or your family work through your challenges. It takes desire to grow, willingness to make an initial effort, courage to seek a more fulfilling life and to take the first step toward a change. If you are ready to begin your journey toward a positive change and a more fulfilling life, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with nearly 10 years of experience in various capacities within the Behavioral Health field as a counselor, a case manager, and a social worker. I enjoy working with everyone from teens to military, and those in between. I also have ample experience working with those impacted by substance use disorders, parenting concerns, past emotional trauma, and anxiety. My therapeutic approach depends on each individual's needs! However, I enjoy using Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Psychodynamic therapies to help clients reach their goals. I strive to create a safe, compassionate environment that is free from judgement, yet also fosters change, acceptance, and growth for all clients. These past couple of years have been difficult for many. Please allow me to commend this first crucial step towards creating a healthier, happier next chapter!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. I grew up in a very diverse community where all cultures and unique perspectives were embraced and encouraged. I attended California State University, East Bay Campus and completed a bachelor's degree in English Literature with a minor in Spanish and went on to finish a Masters of Science in Counseling with an option in Marriage and Family Therapy. Since becoming licensed in 2004, I have maintained a Private Practice in the San Francisco Bay Area for 18 years. During my education and internships I received extensive training in helping clients through crises, healing from trauma, understanding family systems, de-escalating conflicts and strengthening their problem-solving and self-care skills to improve the outcomes in their lives. I have worked at Community Mental Health Centers, in School settings, as a Family Court Mediator and also as a Supervisor for new intern-level therapists. I believe that it is always important to use genuine caring and empathy so that my clients will feel that each therapy session is customized to their needs. I am here to come alongside you, whether you are healing, learning or questioning. The story is yours. I use a Solution Focused approach incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with Expressive Arts and Mindfulness exercises to help you develop the next chapter of your story. I specialize in helping my clients learn new skills and tools to improve self-esteem, become more empowered in their lives and improve their relationships. I teach people specifically "how to" go about making changes and implement these new skills, especially when they have had difficulty doing so in the past. In other words, I help people get "unstuck" from behaviors or thought patterns that no longer serve them while also helping them develop a path to increased happiness and improved quality of life. I feel very honored to have the trust of my clients and to be of help to people during times of transition in their lives. - Individual Therapy - Early Relationship Building for Couples - Pre Marital Therapy - Bilingual English & Spanish
