About Todd
Todd Mangini is a California-based licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of clinical experience. He works in a direct, conversational way and focuses on practical steps people can take when stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, or life transitions feel overwhelming. Todd uses simple language and clear goals to help people build stronger self-esteem and reconnect with what matters to them.
He often helps people who are managing caregiving responsibilities, parenting challenges, chronic illness in the family, or the long-term effects of serious mental illness in a loved one. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, usable changes that can reduce daily strain. Todd describes therapy as a space to talk honestly and learn new ways of responding to old patterns.
Todd draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s pace, and he uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with anxiety and sleep. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused work guide short-term shifts and clearer next steps.
His style is nonjudgmental and practical. Conversations are aimed at making everyday life a little easier and relationships more manageable. He encourages clients to notice how thoughts, feelings, and body sensations interact and to experiment with small changes.
Todd invites people to take the first step toward clearer goals and steadier self-esteem. He supports clients through ordinary struggles and major transitions, helping them find ways to move forward that fit their lives.
