About Reihaneh

Reihaneh Sabzalian works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and depression. She uses person-centred, attachment-based and cognitive-behavioural approaches and has three years' professional experience. Reihaneh is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She starts by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. Sessions are built around the client’s concerns and everyday challenges. Reihaneh explains options and helps people decide which techniques feel most useful in practice.

Her person-centred work focuses on the client’s own goals and strengths. Attachment-informed ideas are used to look at relationship patterns and how early experiences influence adult responses. Cognitive-behavioural methods are offered for practical ways to manage unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Reihaneh has experience supporting people after loss and with the ongoing impact of trauma. She also works with a range of issues including body image, codependency, chronic illness and communication difficulties. She aims to help clients find clear steps they can try between sessions.

Sessions are offered in English and Persian for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. She uses a subscription model for payments that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location. To begin, clients use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Reihaneh uses therapeutic approaches online

Reihaneh combines person-centred work with attachment-informed and cognitive-behavioural ideas. Person-centred counselling focuses on the client's priorities, helping them clarify goals and notice strengths. Attachment-informed work looks at patterns in close relationships and how earlier connections affect current responses. Cognitive-behavioural methods offer practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be useful for anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist discusses what is working and what is not, and together they try methods that match the client's needs and preferences. This shared decision-making means techniques can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and make regular check-ins simpler. Phone or video sessions can allow shorter check-ins or a quieter setup when needed, while written updates can help track progress between appointments. Registered or accredited professionals often find these formats help people maintain continuity of care and stay engaged with the work.
