About Mariah
Mariah Funderburg is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California who focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. She frames therapy as a practical partnership and aims to create a calm, welcoming space where clients can talk through what feels hardest right now.
Sessions are designed to be down-to-earth and skills-focused. Mariah helps people build tools for managing panic, improving sleep, and easing chronic stress. She also works with concerns around self-esteem, body image, and relationship patterns, including non-monogamous arrangements and LGBTQ issues.
Her clinical work emphasizes trauma-informed care and attention to how early attachment and life stress shape current struggles. Mariah draws on approaches that are rooted in evidence and tailored to each person’s needs. Conversations tend to include skill practice, emotion regulation, and clearer communication strategies.
Mariah is a survivor of trauma herself, and she brings that lived perspective to the work while keeping the client’s goals central. She encourages people to notice the strengths they already have and to try small, manageable changes between sessions.
With three years of recent practice as an LMFT in California, Mariah has focused on remote and underserved populations. She speaks English and does not offer services to international clients.
