Dr. Mazmanyan and Associates
Psychologist, Ph.D
Struggling with anxiety, relationship stress, or feeling overwhelmed? You don’t have to navigate it alone. At Dr. Mazmanyan & Associates, we provide attachment-based and relational therapy for individuals, couples, and families. We believe emotional healing and a sense of self develop through relationships and are shaped by early experiences, family dynamics, and cultural contexts. Therapy focuses on understanding how these patterns formed, honoring how they once served a purpose, and gently reshaping them to better support current relationships, emotional well-being, and self-trust.

Veronica Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Online therapy has been shown to be an effective form of therapy. While in-person therapy is more ideal, issues such as scheduling, traffic, and other constraints prevent in-person sessions from being a viable option.
The first session may feel a bit awkward. However, my clients find that once they get started, the virtual sessions don't get in the way of their treatment. I offer sessions on a secure network with therapists in mind. I work to be sure my client's feel as comfortable as possible virtually by reminding them to create a comfortable space for themselves, maybe having a box of tissues, etc. Therapy can be done in a closet, while parked in a car, or sitting at a park as long as there aren't distractions. Virtual sessions are a way to get your needs met without the usual obstacles.

Oakland has a politically engaged, social-justice-oriented community where many therapists approach their work through an anti-oppression lens, specializing in racial trauma, activist burnout, and healing within BIPOC communities. The city's proximity to San Francisco means therapists here frequently work with the compounding stresses of the Bay Area housing crisis, economic displacement, and the grief of gentrification. Oakland has strong LGBTQ+ and creative communities, with demand for affirming therapists who work at the intersection of identity, community belonging, and personal wellbeing. Highland Hospital and UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland provide institutional anchors alongside a network of independent practitioners.
