And if you need a vent session, I'm here for that, too. 

I look forward to meeting you.

Hello my name is Ann Alsaadi. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California (LMFT). I have led a variety of groups. My passion in all the work I have done is to help people reach their goals, heal from trauma related issues and issues related to different phases of life. I provide non-judgmental and open hearted support for people in my work and feel honored to be a part of each person’s journey. I work from a person-centered approach in the therapeutic relationship with my client. I strive to meet each client "where they are" and to provide support to each person in his or her individual process of self-discovery and path towards self-actualization. Talking through your feelings and receiving an alternative viewpoint can be therapeutic in itself. I am interested in your personal story and will provide support, guidance, and understanding throughout your wellness journey. In working from a relational lens, I help individuals form better relationships with themselves and others. We will explore your unique story, discuss attachment and discover the underlying thoughts and feelings that may contribute to discord and conflict. In therapy, the client is the expert and the path and pace of therapy is the choice of the client. My role as a therapist is to provide structure and support while holding space for my client on his or her own personal journey towards healing and self discovery. Sometimes people just need someone to talk to. Therapy provides a warm and safe place to explore issues and clear emotional and mental obstacles so that you can live your best life. Transformation is not easy. It is a brave and difficult choice at times to make the decision to seek help for anything, including and sometimes especially, when it comes to mental health.

Welcome, I’m glad you’re here. Starting therapy is a brave first step toward getting support. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, self-doubt, identity questions, or the demands of daily life, you’re not alone.

I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York, and a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I work with young adults through mid-life navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and questions of identity and purpose. 

My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and grounded in a decolonizing, anti-pathologizing lens. I don’t view you as broken—your emotions and behaviors are meaningful responses to your experiences.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University and use a holistic, eclectic approach tailored to each client. I integrate evidence-based practices—including CBT, REBT, and mindfulness—to support your growth, resilience, and day-to-day well-being.

I bring a culturally responsive, inclusive lens to my work and proudly support LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients. My role is to walk alongside you—helping you feel understood, empowered, and free to live a meaningful, authentic life.

If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out. I would be honored to support you.
