ABOUT OFELIA OUNDJIAN, LMFT
A space to feel heard, understand yourself, and move forward.
Warm, collaborative therapy grounded in your experiences, your strengths, and what matters to you.
I’m Ofelia Oundjian, LMFT #147517, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in California. For more than 10 years, I’ve supported people navigating life’s challenges, relationships, transitions, and personal growth.
I’m passionate about helping adults and college students build greater confidence, clarity, and self-understanding. My areas of focus include anxiety, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, parenting, life transitions, relationships, and substance and alcohol use.
Alongside therapy, I offer coaching and consultation for adults, parents, college students, schools, school districts, and developing mental health professionals. Across these services, my goal is to provide thoughtful guidance and practical tools that help you move forward with intention.
Hi,
I’m Ofelia.
Experience across different settings and seasons of life.
My professional background includes specialized experience supporting adults in residential and intensive outpatient programs addressing alcohol and substance use as well as co-occurring mental health concerns.
I also bring more than a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, parents, schools, and professionals. This work has included school-based mental health support, collaboration with families and educators, and parent advocacy, education, and training.
I am a Certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP), with specialized training in ADHD and executive functioning challenges.
What does working together feel like?
My approach is warm, collaborative, direct, patient, and inviting. You can speak honestly about what you’re experiencing without needing to have the right words or all the answers.
I see you as the expert in your own life. Your perspectives, feedback, and priorities help guide our work.
Together, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, identify patterns, recognize your strengths, and develop practical tools. My role is to support your understanding and choices while respecting your pace.

Understand how early relationships may shape connection, communication, and emotional needs.
-
Consider how family dynamics and the systems around you influence your experiences.
-
Identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice more balanced ways of thinking and responding.

Build skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and communication.
-
Explore the stories and meanings you give your experiences, with room for new perspectives.
-
Practice present-moment awareness, grounding, and intentional attention to navigate stress and overwhelm.
What guides our work.
