individual, couples and families furthering her training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

As a Therapist, Tina practices as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. CBT focuses on challenging and changing unhelpful cognitive distortions and behaviors, improving emotional regulation, and the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems. CBT has been proven to be highly affective in both depression and anxiety. When it comes to treating her patients, Tina approaches each case holistically. In the first session she throughly looks at the individual's current mental, physical, socioeconomic, nutrition, exercise, and social well-being. She believes that all the different areas of our life affect one another and therefore she formulates a treatment plan that will sufficiently allow a well balanced life.
Recently, Tina and her husband, Dr. Sadri joined ventures to share a office space, staff and responsibilities, located in Newport Beach, Ca. Tina is really enjoying the added responsibilities of managing a corporation and all the excitement that comes with it.
