Introduction

I’m Dr. Rei Mahdavi, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, AAMFT Approved Supervisor, and Assistant Professor of Couple and Family Therapy. With over 15 years of clinical experience, I specialize in relationships, attachment, complex trauma, life transitions, and the emotional experiences that shape how we connect with ourselves and others. My therapeutic approach integrates Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), EMDR, and experiential, attachment-based perspectives. I believe meaningful change begins when we create space to explore our experiences, challenge limiting narratives, and reconnect with our values, strengths, and sense of agency. I am also the founder and clinical director of Ray of Life Family Therapy Collective, a mental health and wellness practice in La Jolla, San Diego. I established Ray of Life to bring together a collaborative team of therapists dedicated to thoughtful, inclusive, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive care. Our practice offers individual, couples, family, child and teen therapy, as well as EMDR, wellness workshops, and relationship-focused retreats. Under my clinical leadership, our team integrates evidence-based therapies with holistic perspectives to support meaningful healing, stronger relationships, and lasting personal growth. Whether you are navigating relationship challenges, exploring your identity, or healing from difficult experiences, our team will support you in your healing journey.
