About Reihaneh
Reihaneh Sabzalian is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also lists codependency among the concerns she supports.
Reihaneh uses a mix of approaches in sessions. She draws on person-centred ideas to focus on what matters to each person. She uses attachment theory to talk about how past relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive-behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of coping.
In practice she treats therapy as a practical conversation. Sessions look at everyday problems and small changes that add up. She helps people notice repeated patterns, such as people-pleasing or trouble saying no, and tries out new responses together.
Her work includes support for grief, loss and recovery after abusive experiences. She also helps people who are struggling with motivation or confidence alongside depression symptoms. She pays attention to physical health issues when they affect mood and coping.
Reihaneh speaks English and Persian. She accepts international clients and asks new people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin. The subscription for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and pricing varies with location.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Reihaneh uses person-centred work, attachment theory and cognitive-behavioural techniques in her practice. Person-centred work means the conversation follows what matters to the client and builds on their strengths. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence current behaviours and feelings. Cognitive-behavioural techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of responding to stress or anxiety.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will work with the client to see which ideas fit best with their goals and how they prefer to work. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift and progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or family commitments and saving travel time. Online work can make it easier to have a shorter check-in when needed or to meet without commuting. The biography does not state which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking to understand session length, frequency and how meetings are delivered.
