English
| فارسی Life is complex, and emotional pain is unavoidable. As your therapist, I am here to support you in navigating these complexities. While occasional feelings of sadness or anxiety, and occasional conflicts, are normal, overwhelming or persistent emotional pain may signal deeper issues. Depression, anxiety, PTSD, anger management issues, ongoing relationship problems, and persistent loneliness can indicate that we might need to do more inner work to heal. Psychotherapy helps us uncover the underlying causes of our problems, offering insights into why we experience difficulties and providing guidance on resolving them effectively.
My approach is psychodynamic psychotherapy, focused on attachment theory and mentalization. We will work together to help you understand your feelings, thoughts, and the motivations behind your own and others' behaviors and reactions. This deeper understanding will help you regulate your emotions more effectively, feel more in control of your behaviors.
I support Iranian newcomers who are dealing with immigration stress, cultural adjustment, and family challenges. I offer counselling in both Farsi and English, online or in person. With a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed approach, we explore emotions safely and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
