Nagla Mostafa, LMFT

I have worked in a variety of high-acuity settings, including over three years at Timberline Knolls, a residential facility where I utilized DBT to help individuals recover from severe disorders such as chronic depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders (such as Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorders). My background also includes work with youth and families at 360 Youth Services.

I frame my work through a highly systemic lens—looking at the bigger picture of your relationships, history, and physiological patterns. I am direct and transparent, using Narrative Therapy to help you rewrite your story, and the Gottman Method alongside sex-therapy informed approaches to resolve intimacy blockages, sexual communication issues, and desire discrepancies.

For clients struggling with anxiety-spectrum conditions, I provide evidence-based treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) utilizing Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and address body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like skin picking and hair pulling. Whether you are dealing with complex trauma, severe mood instability, addictions, or specific phobias, I offer a compassionate, validating, and structured container to help you create lasting change.
