 About Haleh Rambod, MFT
I am a marriage and family therapist (MFC 42996); I received my M.A. in Counseling Psychology from Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Since 2001, my clinical career has been focused on counseling children, adolescents, parents and individuals regarding personal, emotional, behavioral, educational, cross cultural, and crisis issues. I have received California Credential for Pupil Personnel Services from San Jose State University in 2003, and since then I have helped college aged individuals with their career and educational choices. My extensive training has enabled me to guide parents, couples, individuals and teens to manage life challenging issues and make healthy life style choices. In addition I am a certified hypnotherapist and have helped clients with test taking anxiety, and stress management. I have also received training in sand play therapy, Jungian Psychology, and dream analysis, and have recently completed two trainings in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) provided by Laurel Parnell.
