Pegah Prousha Zalishahr, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Pegah Prousha!

I would like to introduce myself. I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have a master's degree in Counseling Psychology with an Emphasis on Marriage and Family Therapy. Additionally, I have a PsyD in clinical psychology as well.

My focus

I specialize in working with individuals navigating marital conflicts, addictions, life transitions, and trauma. I create a space where you can explore these challenges and work toward meaningful change at your own pace.

My approach

I create a supportive, nurturing space where we work together to understand what's beneath your struggles. I help you explore patterns, build self-compassion, and develop tools that support healing. My focus is on helping you learn to love and nourish all parts of yourself.

My communication style

I create an open, non-judgmental space to explore your challenges. My style is warm, compassionate, and direct. I listen attentively and ask questions to understand your perspective. Together, we'll work collaboratively to help you gain insight and find a path forward that aligns with your values and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I began working in the field in 2013 and completed my training at facilities specializing in domestic violence support and behavioral health.

My goals for you

We'll work together to identify what matters most to you and create a path forward that honors your values. I'll help you build insight into patterns that may be holding you back and develop practical tools you can use in daily life. My focus is on empowering you to make meaningful changes at your own pace.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll take time to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. I'll ask questions to understand your concerns, your goals, and what you hope to achieve. This is a safe space for you to share openly, and together we'll begin mapping out a collaborative path forward.
