RELATIONSHIP THERAPY THAT HELPS YOU …

 Build Healthier Relationships by Healing Old Unhealthy Patterns.

For years, you may have tried to make relationships work or searched for “the one” by overthinking, people-pleasing, and putting your own needs aside. Yet despite how much effort you give, relationships may still leave you feeling emotionally disconnected, misunderstood, or unseen.

Whether you’re single or in a relationship, therapy can help you recognize the unhealthy patterns keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll gently explore the fears and emotional wounds beneath these patterns, helping you build a stronger sense of self and create more secure, connected, and fulfilling relationships.

Does this sound familiar?

You feel lonely or disconnected, even while being in a relationship.

→ You struggle to communicate with your partner without shutting down, getting defensive, or feeling overwhelmed.

→ You keep repeating the same painful relationship patterns and don’t know how to break the cycle.

→You are uncertain whether to leave or stay in the relationship.

→ Tired of potential that never becomes commitment

→ tired of dating, dealing with ghosting, and not finding the right person.

You deserve a therapist who understands how painful and confusing relationships can feel. You don’t have to carry it all alone.

Meet Niki Ghavam, LMFT

Hi, I’m Niki. I help individuals and couples who struggle with relationships, dating, and anxiety in relationships build healthier, more secure connections.

Whether you’re struggling with dating, relationship anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or unhealthy relationship patterns, therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to pretend everything is okay.

I help clients uncover the patterns that keep them feeling stuck, understand where those patterns come from, and create healthier, more secure relationships without losing themselves in the process.

Farsi Speaking Therapy Services

Two beige chairs facing each other on a gray background. Each chair has a crack in the seat. There are speech bubbles above each chair; the one on the left contains a tangled black scribble, and the one on the right contains a black circle. There are two smoking vases, one on each side of the chairs, and a red and gray bong visible on the bottom right.

Therapy in Farsi offers a space where you can speak more naturally, feel fully understood, and express yourself without needing to explain every cultural detail.

Sometimes relationship struggles aren’t really about the other person. Often, they come from old emotional wounds, and the ways we learned to feel safe, loved, or connected growing up.
