Background and approach
Her work includes attention to identity, sexual culture and LGBT matters where relevant. Sepideh uses psychodynamic ideas to help clients notice recurring emotions and behaviours. Sessions aim to make sense of how past experiences shape current reactions.
This can free people to try different choices and feel less stuck. Practical issues like anger, communication problems, codependency and family of origin matters are part of her caseload. She also works with people facing abandonment, attachment and blended family challenges.
Topics such as body image, caregiver stress, domestic violence and divorce are addressed with care. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging. International clients who speak English or Persian can access sessions.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Psychodynamic insight and online therapy options
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past relationships and experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people understand recurring patterns, such as repeated relationship struggles or persistent low mood, so they can make different choices moving forward.In session, the therapist listens for themes that recur over time and links them to present-day reactions. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, attachment concerns and reactions after trauma and abuse. The focus is on increasing self-awareness rather than on quick fixes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide whether psychodynamic ideas fit their needs and goals. Together they review progress and adjust the focus or methods if another way of working would suit better.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are close to face-to-face and good for deeper conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins, or a way to work without being on camera. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
