Therapists

We work as a team.

Our Approach

Different Specialties, One Team

No two therapists here are the same. The range is wide — the issues we specialize in, the populations we work with, and the paths that brought us here.

But what we all share is a clinical foundation and a team that stays in each other's work. When your therapist is navigating something tricky, they're not doing it alone.

That's what makes this a team, not just a practice.

Credentials

How We Were Trained

Our associates trained in COAMFTE-accredited programs — the gold standard for marriage and family therapy education, and one only a handful of schools in California can claim.

What that means for you: our therapists don't just look at symptoms. They're trained to see the whole picture — your relationships, your family history, the context your life is actually happening in. That means less time treating symptoms in isolation, more time understanding what's actually driving them.

Every associate at Ripple Effects works under the direct clinical supervision of Dan Nyirady, PhD, LMFT, who brings 25 years of clinical practice, training, and mentorship to that role.
