YAEL NISSANIAN, PSYD
Hi, I'm Yael!
I'm a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults, couples, and families. I strive to provide a warm, collaborative environment where you can better understand your experiences, navigate life's challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I work with people seeking to improve their emotional well-being, strengthen their relationships, and better understand themselves. Whether you're feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, recovering from trauma or severe mental illness, navigating relationship difficulties, or trying to make sense of confusing or distressing thoughts and experiences, therapy can offer a space to explore what's happening and move toward a life that feels more manageable and fulfilling.
My work is grounded in a relational psychodynamic framework and informed by a range of evidence-based therapies, allowing me to tailor treatment to each person's unique needs. I also provide couple therapy, helping partners strengthen their connection, improve communication, and work through difficult relationship patterns.

I work with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking support with:
Anxiety, depression, and emotional distress
Trauma and difficult life experiences
Relationship challenges
Life transitions, identity, and self-understanding
