About Rami
Rami Anabtawi is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with three years of clinical experience. He helps people who are struggling with relationship issues, family conflict, parenting challenges, anger, and depression. He also focuses on codependency, communication problems, forgiveness work, life purpose questions, and obsessive-compulsive concerns.
Rami keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. He listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, and he works with people to try different ways of responding. Sessions are practical and focused on clear next steps rather than abstract theory.
In work with relationships and family stress, he looks at how daily interactions add up over time. He helps clients notice communication habits and practice small changes that can reduce tension. For parenting concerns he offers strategies to manage conflict and set boundaries that feel manageable.
When anger or depression is the focus, he attends to what triggers intense reactions and what helps reduce them. For obsessive or compulsive thoughts and behaviors he helps people break cycles by testing small behavioral changes and tracking results.
Rami describes himself as respectful and sensitive in session. He invites clients to be active in planning the work and to try practical approaches between meetings. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the site.
Approaches for practical change and online sessions
Rami works with evidence-based techniques that focus on behavior and interaction. One common approach is behavioral activation, which helps people with low mood try small, manageable activities to reduce withdrawal and lift day-to-day motivation. This can be useful for depression and for getting unstuck after major life changes.Another frequently used approach targets patterns in relationships and communication. It involves identifying recurring interaction cycles and practicing brief, concrete changes in how people speak and respond. This method is helpful for relationship tension, family conflict, and communication problems.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will review your concerns, goals, and preferences, and then suggest techniques to try. Clients and the therapist check how those methods are working and adjust the plan together.
Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand a brief update. If video is not ideal, ask about other options so you can find a way to meet that fits your routine.
