About Reihaneh
Reihaneh Sabzalian is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people dealing with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, relationship communication problems, and the practical strains of caregiving.
Her way of working draws on a mix of person-centred listening, attachment ideas about relating, and cognitive-behavioural techniques for unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships and reactions, and helps people notice thoughts and habits that keep difficulties going. She uses practical steps as well as reflective conversation so people can try new approaches between meetings.
Reihaneh treats symptoms like persistent worry, low mood, and the impact of past hurt in straightforward terms. She offers space to talk through recent life changes such as separation, loss, or long-term illness, and helps people rebuild confidence after those events. Sessions aim to be clear and practical rather than vague or purely motivational.
Her training includes an MSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy. Reihaneh works in English and Persian and accepts international clients. The subscription model she uses can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules a first session. That initial step is used to agree goals and decide how to proceed.
Approaches in online sessions and how they help
Reihaneh uses a blend of person-centred work and cognitive-behavioural ideas. Person-centred work focuses on listening and helping people reflect on their own priorities and values. It suits those who need time to make sense of a life change or loss. Cognitive-behavioural techniques look at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offer practical skills to reduce worry, low mood or unhelpful reactions.She also draws on attachment-informed thinking to understand patterns in relationships and how early experiences shape current responses. That perspective can help when difficulty keeps repeating in close relationships or when past hurt affects current trust. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process between the therapist and client, based on problems, goals and personal preference.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, cut out travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises for video or voice sessions, and the therapist will discuss how to structure meetings so they fit into everyday routines.
