I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California. I have been practicing since my graduation from Antioch University in 2019, and I have been licensed since May of 2023. My experience with multiple challenges in life, and recovery from those challenges gives me a unique perspective and helps me to better serve my clients. The Japanese art form Kintsugi, meaning to mend with gold, takes broken pieces of pottery and repairs the cracks with precious metals. The fractures then become stronger than the solid areas. I believe that we, as humans, as we heal, turn our scars into our strongest assets. My passion lies in uncovering the scars, helping you to heal, and witnessing the transformation as they become the strongest part of you.

I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for over 10 years. My Master’s in Social Work focused on Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality and how our different life experiences shape how we navigate our surroundings. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a veteran of the United States Armed Forces, some of my approaches to helping my clients identify their challenges and barriers to their identified problem starts with a person-centered and solution-focused approach to therapy. I recognize a client's right to self-determination, and I want to empower clients I work with to collaboratively come up with their own obtainable short-term and or long-term plans and goals for the present and the future lives they want to live. Let’s further explore together how to use better the tools you’ve been working with and perhaps add additional tools to the toolbox or not.

Hello, I am Afsheen Izadi, but I go by Bruce. I have been working as a Marriage and Family Therapist since 2013 and have worked with many different populations. Growing up, I observed people putting more emphasis on their physical wellbeing and ignoring their psychological and emotional wellbeing. I see that they are interconnected and we were only treating a part of the problem. I did some introspection and decided that I didn't want to simply "survive," but live a good life. Then I realized I don't just want this for myself--I want to make this possible for others.
