​

I’m Avin Saggafi, MSW, RSW, Clinical Director and Founder of Mindful Steps 2 Wellness.

​

With over 20 years of experience across private practice and non-profit sectors, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of accessible mental health services and skill-building programs in improving lives and restoring hope.

​

I believe deeply that every person, regardless of background or circumstances, deserves compassionate support during life’s inevitable challenges. When hardship leaves you feeling lost, unworthy, or overwhelmed, how you navigate those emotions profoundly shapes your sense of self and your relationships with others. This belief inspired the founding of Mindful Steps 2 Wellness in 2020—a practice built on the conviction that healing happens when people feel truly seen, valued, and safe to be themselves.

​

My vision has always been to create more than just a clinical practice. I wanted to build a space where both clients and clinicians feel genuinely welcomed, respected, and encouraged to show up authentically. A place where vulnerability is honored, growth is celebrated, and every person who walks through our doors—whether seeking support or providing it—feels they belong.

​

As a female-founded practice led by a clinician who understands the complexities of this work, we’re committed to serving both those seeking care and the professionals who provide it. We offer evidence-based, compassionate support in an environment where diversity is celebrated, all identities are affirmed, and every individual is treated with dignity and respect.

*Here, you’ll find not just clinical expertise, but genuine care—a place where healing, growth, and authentic connection are possible.*
