For 29 years I have helped clients, of all ages, respond to the complexity of emotional life, including developmental and shock trauma, life transitions, relational difficulties, conflict in work and school, as well as, symptoms of anxiety and depression. I am also passionate about working with families, adolescents and young adults: bringing healing and growth to relationships. Ultimately, the ability to be reflective and resilient is a predictor of emotional health and my goal is to help my clients be present and available to meet their potential in this way. I am licensed in California and New York.

I work with individuals, couples and families. I work with many people in recovery and individuals who have experienced different levels of trauma ( whether it was by having difficulties in childhood or a specific recent event). Creating a safe space to uncover some of the layers that guard us from our truths is something I believe firmly in.I think our nervous systems are partners in our understanding of ourselves. Thru therapy we aim to grow a deeper self awareness and acceptance of ourselves and those around us.

As a licensed psychologist, my clinical experience is with individuals, children, adolescents, and families dealing with stressful and agonizing life events. In addition, my professional expertise also includes providing psychological testing and evaluations, psycho-educational assessments, and immigration evaluations.

I am passionate about providing the highest quality assessment services for children and adults. My expertise has been cultivated through my assessment research studies, training, and treatment of disabilities and psychological conditions. My assessment services include neuropsychological, psycho-educational, and psychological testing. I also conduct med-legal, immigration, adoption, and forensic examinations. Treatment includes parenting support and ADHD/LD treatment. I guide individuals in building functional skills to cope with challenges that interfere with effective functioning. ADHD therapy provides support, structure, feedback, and the development of skills to increase self-awareness, independence, improve concentration, time-management, planning and organization skills.

I am a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. I am also a Doctor of Psychology and full-time counselor at Pepperdine University. I received my postgraduate training at the Beck Institute of Cognitive Behavior Therapy – the pioneer of Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I specialize in solution-focused and evidence-based treatment to help you improve your life in the most efficient way. I also utilize attachment theory to address relationship dynamics that tailors to your needs. I am passionate about neurobiology and can provide you with the most advanced tools from medical research.

At times, experiencing painful feelings, having difficulty managing stressful or unexpected situations, life transitions, and/or dealing with relationship conflicts, whether romantic or not, may hinder us from feeling happy, capable, and empowered to live our lives to the fullest. During these times, the support and the guidance of a caring professional can make a difference.

Finding clarity that aligns with your heart, body and mind can be hard. Feeling stuck in those dark chapters of life can bring up difficulty with productivity, isolation and loneliness. Periods of transition will come and go; it's how we handle them that matters. Counseling can help! For more info, visit my Yelp Page: Nicole Nowparvar, LCSW.

All too often struggles deplete our energy and leave us feeling down on ourselves. Through rigorous conversation and a highly supportive relationship, I help people gain the clarity and confidence needed to produce desired change. I have extensive training in postmodern therapies, which examine how dominant cultural discourses can have oppressive effects on our lives, identities, and relationships. Prior to working in private practice, I was part of UCLA's network, where I brought social justice aims to integrative models of mental health. I have many years of experience working with couples, families, youth, and adults.
