Hengameh Roohi, LCP — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Hengameh!

Licensed Clinical Psychologist with postdoctoral training in clinical neuropsychology. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. My approach integrates depth psychology, CBT, and clinical neuropsychology, exploring the nervous system, meaning, and the whole person.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Beyond symptoms, we explore deeper emotional and nervous-system patterns, unconscious influences, relationships, and meaning to understand how you experience yourself, others, and life.

My approach

My approach is structured, short-term, and integrative, drawing on depth psychology, CBT, and neuropsychology. I explore how the nervous system, emotions, unconscious, meaning, relationships, and lived experience shape symptoms and adaptation, while holding the paradox of human experience and fostering greater integration and wholeness.

My communication style

My sessions are warm, thoughtful, and engaged. I listen closely and actively participate through reflection, questions, and clinical insight. I value curiosity and genuine connection, creating space to explore both what is known and what may lie beneath the surface, while holding the complexity and paradox of your experience.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am fascinated by the paradox and complexity of the human psyche and how the unconscious, relationships, nervous system, and meaning shape us across the lifespan. Influenced by Jung and neuropsychology, I am drawn to the lifelong process of becoming and individuation—our movement toward greater wholeness, agency, and possibility.

My goals for you

Goal setting is collaborative and evolves as therapy deepens. We begin with what brings you to therapy, while exploring the deeper patterns, needs, and meaning beneath it. Goals may include symptom relief, greater self-understanding and emotional flexibility, and a more integrated sense of wholeness.

Our first session

The first session is a space to understand what brings you to therapy and the broader context of your experience. We explore current concerns, history, relationships, emotional and nervous-system patterns, and what feels meaningful to you, beginning to form a deeper understanding of both your struggles and strengths.
