Whether you are working on improving a relationship, making tough decisions, breaking unhealthy patterns, or your individual challenge, you can and deserve to accomplish it. I help my clients to identify patterns within past struggles and unhealthy behavior, as well as within their success stories. Drawing upon cognitive-behavioral, DBT, mindfulness practices, attachment, psychodynamic, and strength-based theories, I will support you in being kind to yourself, as we work together to address your struggles and mobilize your strengths. In the room, I am active and will hold you with great compassion, while giving you direct feedback when needed. Together we will co-create a space for exploration so that you can feel safe and supported without feeling judged. In this space, we will revisit your struggles, create new meaning, and bring ease and relief to pain. Besides English, I fluently speak and write in Farsi.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Eclectic
Create a customized treatment plan that incorporates elements from different therapy orientations. For example, this might involve using CBT techniques for cognitive restructuring and integrating relational, attachment, and humanistic approaches to build empathic alliance and improve self-confidence. This approach involves the client in the therapy process. Discuss the various techniques and methods, and collaboratively decide which ones will resonate with my clients. I also use mindfulness practices and DBT techniques for emotion regulation, frustration tolerance, and reducing stress. Psychodynamic modality is the foundation and base of my Eclectic approach.
