Mahastee Mehdizadeh, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Mahastee!

I am the Stop Self-Sabotaging Expert. As a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 18 years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals overcome obstacles, fears, anxiety, depression, addiction, and self-sabotaging behaviors.

My focus

Many struggle with self-love and self-empathy, but true transformation begins with self-compassion, gratitude, and healthy boundaries. I help clients break free from limiting beliefs, reconnect with their authentic selves, and create lasting change. Let's begin your journey today!

My approach

My approach integrates psychotherapy, personality typology, hypnotherapy, NLP, and spiritual work—customized for each client to foster lasting transformation. I help you break free from fears, negativity, addiction, and self-sabotaging patterns to achieve your goals and create the life you want.

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment. My approach is very interactive and conversational providing active listening, along with sharing stories, providing education, along with examples to provide assurance and more understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

I'm passionate about empowering people to break free from what holds them back. Helping clients discover their authentic selves and create meaningful change drives my work every day.

My goals for you

Using evidence-based therapies combined with subconscious techniques, I help you reshape thought patterns, develop healthy habits, and enhance interpersonal connections. This approach blends strategic, solution-focused, and Imago therapies with tools that tap into the subconscious, ensuring lasting transformation.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I'll create a safe space for you to share your story, and together we'll begin identifying patterns and setting goals for your transformation.
