06/25/2021: All relationships come with a fair share of ups, downs, and a few backflips too. Some problems are easier to manage while others almost destroy the relationship for good, leaving couples separated, homes broken, and children distraught. With heightened emotions, being in the thick of problems and advice from friends, family, and strangers alike can take a toll on most couples.

In that situation, it makes all the difference in the world to have access to a qualified, experienced, and empathetic therapist who knows how to help couples deal with their issues, work through their problems and come out stronger.

Azizeh E. Rezaiyan is a therapist operating in Palo Alto, and she holds specialized training in couple's counseling. Her work and expertise allow her to help couples—young and old, married and unmarried—identify and work on their problems.

She works with couples on issues of infidelity, sex and sexuality, stress, and workloads and understands how the fast-paced life in a place like Silicon Valley can be incredibly damaging to relationships. Her own experience of having lived across multiple countries, experiencing different cultures, and coming from a blended family lends her a particular sensitivity toward her clients.

Her services involve helping clients communicate more openly with each other, working on boundary setting, vocalizing needs, validating emotions, and various other issues that range from the day-to-day humdrum or relationships to major setbacks like affairs and cheating.

She talks about her practice, saying:

“Couples feel isolated and think their problems are unique to them, but truth be told, a lot of the root causes are similar. Work, stress, kids, chores, finances, the daily grind, small arguments, and poor communication can add up and take your relationship south. Therapy gives them a safe, comfortable, judgment-free zone to unload, process, explore, and understand what they're going through and how they can work past it. No opinions, no value-judgment, nothing to hinder or influence them."

Her work sets her apart as one of the leading psychotherapists and counselors in the region. She helps clients cope with anxiety, depression, relationship problems of various kinds, including interracial, immigrant, same-sex, or LGBTQ relationships, and other nuances.
