Getting to know Parmida Shirazi

Parmida is an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist and Certified Drug & Alcohol Counselor (CATC IIII) who helps adults and families heal from addiction, trauma, and relational wounds. She has worked across the full continuum of care—including inpatient, PHP, and IOP—supporting clients navigating substance use, co‑occurring mental health challenges, and complex life transitions. Her clinical focus includes addiction (substances, sex, food, gambling), codependency, depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief and loss, and borderline personality disorder. At the heart of her work is a simple truth: you were always whole. From that place of wholeness, clients can reconnect with their authentic selves and move beyond old patterns of shame, fear, and self‑doubt.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Parmida’s style is warm, collaborative, and non‑judgmental. She creates a space where clients feel genuinely seen and safe to explore, heal, and grow. Treatment is tailored to reduce distress, build inner resilience, and help clients live from clarity and self‑compassion rather than from past wounds. She integrates a blend of evidence‑based and experiential approaches, including Person‑Centered Therapy, Solution‑Focused Therapy, DBT, CBT, Mindfulness‑Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Recovery‑Oriented Therapy, Psychodrama, Somatic Experiencing, Attachment‑Based Therapy, and Family Systems Theory. This holistic approach allows her to address both immediate symptoms and deeper emotional and relational patterns. Parmida is committed to walking alongside clients as they reclaim their strength, rewrite their stories, and return to a life rooted in authenticity. If you’re ready to begin or continue your healing journey, she would be honored to work with you.
