She pays attention to how trauma, grief, and life transitions affect day-to-day functioning. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-focused. Sepideh uses conversational methods to help people spot unhelpful habits, weigh options, and try small experiments between sessions.
She also incorporates mindfulness practices to reduce anxiety and build present-moment awareness.

04Online support
How her approaches work online
Sepideh uses client-centered work that focuses on the person in front of her. This means conversations center on the client’s concerns and priorities, with the therapist reflecting, asking questions, and helping people clarify what matters most. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to set personal goals.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, useful for anxiety, depression, and impulse-related concerns. Mindfulness practices are added to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness through simple breathing and grounding exercises.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose approaches that fit their goals, comfort level, and daily life. That collaboration helps shape short-term plans or longer-term work depending on needs.
Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a more personal connection is helpful. Phone sessions or audio can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or shorter sessions that fit a busy schedule. These options help people keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, and other commitments.
