About Me
Welcome to Sessions of Wellness Counseling Center! I’m Niari Markarian, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) dedicated to helping people navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
I specialize in helping individuals, couples and families navigate work-related stress, burnout, grief, trauma, life transitions, and issues surrounding relationships and parenting. My goal is to help you build emotional strength, uncover patterns that may be holding you back, and move toward a life that feels more grounded and fulfilling.
Therapy with me isn’t about judgment; It’s about support, growth, and learning how to trust yourself again. Together, we’ll work at your pace and build a pathway forward that truly fits your needs. I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and supported. I would be absolutely honored to walk alongside you during your journey.
