Parinaz (Pari) Ghahramani, Ed.S., LMFT I have been a Licensed Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist for over 30 years. I have worked with individuals, couples, families, adolescents, children, adults and groups struggling with a variety of issues and problems. I have enjoyed working with people of diverse cultural, economical and ethnic backgrounds.
My philosophy is both a holistic approach and an integrative approach, where the focus becomes the client’s well being as a whole person. I strongly believe that mental health, psychological health, behavioral health, emotional health along with spiritual health are all interconnected and have profound effects on one’s physiological health and well being. I believe each of these areas of health play an important and vital part in one’s balanced and healthy existence. My intention is to assist, inspire, educate and motivate my client’s personal journey of self-discovery, to help them develop their own resources, to find new possibilities, to explore new perspectives and to learn new skills to face and handle the challenging existing problems and unexpected life crises. In doing so, it is my hope to help my clients to reach their desired goals, as well as to help them to live a fit, healthy and fulfilling life.
I have an eclectic and pragmatic method of approach, and I believe each individual is unique; therefore I formulate and utilize a mixture of psycho-therapeutic modalities, techniques and treatment plans to meet the needs of every specific individual, couple, family and/or group, based on their existing situations and desired goals.
The modalities I utilize include but are not limited to: Integrated Psychotherapy, Evidenced Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy (RET), Behavior Modification, Gestalt, Family Systems Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, Positive Psychology and many more.
I have extensive training and experience in the following areas: • Individual,Adult, Child, Adolescent, Family, Couples, Play and Group Therapy • Communication Skills • Stress Management, Meditation and Mindfulness • Anger Management • Conflict Resolution • Parenting Education and Parent Child Relationships • Parent Effectiveness Training (PET) • Assertiveness Training • Domestic Violence • Military Life Culture and Significant Issues • Trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) • Depression .Anxiety.Panic Attacks.Bipolar ,mood related Disorders. End of Life Issues, Grief and Loss • Divorce and Blended Families • Women’s Issues
I have worked as a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT) in my own private practice in addition to being part of different organizations, universities, residential and non-residential facilities and military settings as a family life counselor for on demand military events as well as on Military installations and stations. I have been and continue to be an active member of Star Behavioral Health Providers in collaboration with the Department of Defense.
I am also very passionate about physical health and fitness. I practice as a Total Heath and Fitness Trainer/Coach and Consultant.
I love spending time in nature, close to the ocean, fitness training, meditating, hiking, traveling, exploring, and be with my daughter, family, and friends.
