Bahar Amini, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hello and welcome to my page! :) My name is Bahar Amini. I am a first-generation Afghan-American woman with a background in Psychology and Social Work. After experiencing my own mental health struggles during my early college years, I decided to change my major to Psychology in hopes to better understand what was happening. I graduated from California State University, Fullerton with my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in 2017. Eventually, after some more trial and error, I made my way to obtaining my Master's degree in Social Work at California State University, Dominguez Hills in 2020. I am grateful for my own lived experiences, what I have learned from teachers inside of the classroom, outside of the classroom, and from afar which have influenced what my practice is today. Above all else, I am grateful to my clients. I have learned and continue to learn so much from them. Being someone's therapist is one of the most rewarding yet humbling positions to be in.

In-network insurances

Bahar Amini, LCSW has 50+ in-network plans.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
