Ms Shabana Haider

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

“As a compassionate and dedicated Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) I employ a diverse range of therapeutic approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, and SFBT.”

About Me

As a compassionate Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer a warm, supportive space to navigate life's complexities. I draw on a diverse toolkit, like Emotionally Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. This helps you understand difficult emotions and build practical skills for daily challenges. This flexible approach means we can tailor our work to your unique needs. I guide individuals, couples, and families towards clearer communication and stronger connections.

Approach

Using tools from DBT, CBT, EFT, motivational interviewing and narrative techniques, I organize sessions around what matters most to you, moving from curiosity to concrete steps. In my Rancho Cucamonga office we work at a steady, practical pace—sessions blend short experiments, emotion-focused moments, and coaching-style check-ins you can practice between meetings. I partner with individuals, couples, and families to test small shifts in interaction and habits, adjusting with your feedback so therapy stays relevant to daily life. People seeking clearer patterns and usable skills tend to find this collaborative rhythm helpful.
