About Marianna

Marianna Oganesyan is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California with 12 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and challenges related to parenting and self-esteem.

Background and approach

She brings focused support for attention and concentration concerns, including struggles with motivation, memory, and day-to-day focus, and pays attention to communication difficulties and issues around forgiveness. Her style centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and emotions freely and work toward practical change.

Marianna emphasizes collaboration, helping clients set goals and build skills that address both immediate problems and longer-term patterns. She encourages taking small, courageous steps toward greater confidence, clearer focus, and improved relationships, and offers steady support through that process.

Evidence-Based Approaches and the Flexibility of Online Care



Marianna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skill building and emotional processing. One approach emphasizes practical strategies for managing stress and anxiety, teaching breathing, grounding, and cognitive tools to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning. Another approach concentrates on trauma-informed care, helping clients process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe while developing coping skills and resilience.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, then tailors methods and pacing to fit those needs. Together they evaluate what techniques are helping and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to access care from different locations within California. These options support continuity of care and allow clients to use the formats that feel most comfortable for practicing new skills and staying connected to weekly work.
