Dr Bita Nazarian

Licensed Psychologist

“A direct, compassionate licensed psychologist helping adults, adolescences, couples, LBGT, and elderly populations.”

About Me

I am a licensed psychologist offering direct, compassionate support to a wide range of individuals. I help adults, adolescents, couples, LGBT individuals, and elderly clients navigate life's complexities. In our sessions, we can explore difficult feelings and find practical ways forward together. I aim to create a space where you feel truly heard. This fosters resilience, whatever you're facing.

Approach

Helping adults and teens, couples, LGBTQ+ clients and elders, I focus on clear, collaborative steps that feel manageable. In my Van Nuys office or via secure online video—with Farsi available when preferred—sessions move at a practical pace: brief check-ins, deeper exploration, and concrete strategies you can try between meetings. When legal questions or formal assessments come up, I pair careful documentation with plain conversation so you stay informed and in control. This straightforward, compassionate way often suits people seeking steady, practical change.
