Other approaches I utilize as part of treatment are; Cognitive Behavioral Approaches, CBT, DBT, personal empowerment, Trauma Focused, strength and solution-focused techniques, spirituality to further assist you in achieving desired goals. As part of my therapeutic approach I also explore childhood issues, trauma, and attachment as our childhood trauma is often the root of our problems and challenges that we are experiencing today.

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.

Arielle Grossman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Your current stop on your journey is never your final destination. Often we feel stuck, unable to move forward due to the heavy baggage being lugged around. In session with me, you can begin to unpack this bag and maybe eventually leave it behind, moving with more freedom than ever before in your life. I work with teens and adults, who are struggling with depression, anger, trauma, and anxiety. I work also with couples and families.

San Diego's identity as a major military and biotech hub creates dual demand for therapists specializing in veteran trauma and PTSD on one hand, and the high-functioning anxiety and burnout of the life sciences industry on the other. The city's large active-duty population at Naval Base San Diego and Camp Pendleton means therapists with military specialty training are consistently sought after, and many practices are specifically oriented toward service members and their families. San Diego's border location and large Latino population drive demand for bilingual therapists and culturally affirming care for immigrant and mixed-status families. Scripps Health and UC San Diego Health provide institutional mental health anchors across the county.
