Getting to know Hermin Pourtahmasbi

Hermin is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals navigating complex emotional, relational, and life transitions. She graduated from the University of San Francisco with a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and prior to entering the mental health field, she spent over 15 years in healthcare. During that time, she developed a strong awareness of how stress, anxiety, avoidance, and trust show up in real human interactions. That experience continues to shape her clinical presence - steady, attentive, and focused on creating a sense of safety without pressure.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Hermin is drawn to working with people experiencing anxiety, trauma, family conflict, identity concerns, and relational challenges. In her work, she pays close attention to both verbal and nonverbal communication, often helping clients slow down and make sense of emotions that feel overwhelming, confusing, or difficult to articulate.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Hermin’s approach is grounded in trauma-informed care and systems thinking, with an emphasis on understanding how a person’s environment, relationships, and internal experiences interact. She believes that meaningful change develops through consistent connection, curiosity, and a space where clients feel genuinely heard.
