To empower women to build meaningful relationships with themselves, their partners, and their babies.

Gayane Aramyan, LMFT
I’ve always had a desire to understand people, their motives, and what drives them to make the decisions they do. I am passionate about working collaboratively with clients to connect the dots from past and present for a more hopeful future.
I have been in the field professionally for over ten years, beginning with my work under Anita Avedian, LMFT as a certified anger management facilitator. My own experience growing up with my husband and marrying my high school sweetheart, and becoming a mother and navigating the demands of working parenthood, has given me a unique perspective to connect with my clients through a personal and professional lens. Creating a validating, safe, and loving home for our children is what drives me to support women and parents through all seasons of life. I would be honored to support you in your journey.

But on a deeper level…
My (not guilty!) pleasure is making a bowl of ramen and watching reality TV when my husband has a guys’ night and my son is asleep! Nothing like alone time with good food and the best entertainment.
I moved to the United States when I was eleven years old and I believe in breaking generational patterns for the health and well being of our children.
Before I wanted to be a therapist, I wanted to work in the fashion industry. Beautiful things and beautiful environment have always inspired me and still do to this day.
