About Sepideh
Sepideh Pourhassani is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions. She works with adults and adolescents and aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what’s most pressing. Sepideh writes and speaks plainly so clients can focus on practical steps, not on jargon.
She draws on techniques from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses.
Background and approach
Mindfulness tools are used to build awareness of bodily reactions and to reduce reactivity in heated moments. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas support small, realistic changes that add up over time. Sepideh has eight years of experience and holds an LPC credential, licensed in Tennessee.
That experience includes helping people with trauma, depression, ADHD, relationship struggles, parenting strain, and substance concerns. She also brings attention to issues that come from adoption, attachment, multicultural stress, and prejudice or discrimination. In sessions she emphasizes clear goals and simple strategies you can practice between meetings.
She encourages clients to start with one small change and notices progress from there. Many people come to address anger or impulse challenges, and she helps them build new ways to respond when emotions spike. Her approach is collaborative and straightforward.
She helps each person choose techniques that fit their life, then adjusts as needed to keep progress moving.

How these approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship, helping people feel heard and guiding conversations toward their own goals. In online sessions this looks like open conversation and check-ins about what matters most to the client.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people spot thoughts and behaviors that fuel stress, anger, or anxiety and then practice different responses. Online CBT often uses short exercises, worksheets, and between-session practice that fit into daily life.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and notice physical signals before they escalate. These skills are easy to try during a video call or to practice between messages.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day limits, then recommend techniques to try. Progress is reviewed together and methods are adjusted when needed so the plan stays useful.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and skill practice, phone works well if bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can support brief check-ins or ongoing encouragement. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and make steady progress without extra travel.
