Pallavi Rightious, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Pallavi! Are you ready to experience therapy in a way that allows you to feel like you're connecting with a nonjudgmental friend rather than being analyzed by a professional? Although I cannot be a friend in the traditional sense, I do make the process of therapy feel comfortable and natural, not tense or awkward. My focus Struggling with anxiety, hopelessness, relationship distress, self-esteem issues, or overall mental and emotional distress. Our work together will be a collaborative, comfortable (yet challenging) exploratory journey to find the underlying patterns and beliefs that get in the way of you living a life that brings you peace. My approach My approach to treatment incorporates Existential, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, CBT, and mindfulness-based techniques. I am both process-oriented and exploratory in my support, helping you gain insight into the patterns, where they stem from, and how to make empowering adjustments to reduce distress and improve quality of life. My communication style I like to ask questions that help you explore and go deeper to understand yourself. With an empathetic nonjudgemental approach, I will listen and reflect back what I hear you say. We will work together to help you process the challenges that you face, while finding a healthier way to see yourself, your relationships, and your life. My journey to mental healthcare My own mental health challenges led me down a path of frustration. Many of the therapists I worked with felt cold, like I was being observed, unable to do the deeper, vulnerable work.. When I found the right therapist, it transformed my life! So I began my life's purpose to help others heal and reclaim their lives with a warm authentic presence. My goals for you As we work together, we will start with the goals you have in mind and adjust as the process unfolds. While you may be coming in for anxiety, you may also find that relationship distress is causing the anxiety.
