How can I support you?
What we can work on together
Therapy does not hand you ready-made answers. It helps you notice patterns and find a path that feels right for you.
Migration challenges
Loneliness, culture shock, loss of belonging, and rebuilding life abroad.
Relationships
Recurring conflict, boundaries, separation, or difficulty building secure relationships.
Self-esteem and self-criticism
Feeling not good enough, comparison, and exhausting perfectionism.
Low mood and burnout
Loss of motivation, emotional exhaustion, grief, and difficulty finding meaning.
Difficult life decisions
When you feel caught between paths and need to hear your own voice more clearly.
Some feelings are understood most fully in your mother tongue.Therapy in Persian means you do not have to translate your emotions, cultural context, or the subtleties of your experience.
