Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Sehnaz Zor often integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and emotionally-focused therapy in her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist supports the client’s own insight and growth; it is helpful for building self-esteem, navigating life transitions, and exploring personal values. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and provide practical coping tools. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) is aimed particularly at relationship patterns and attachment-related concerns, helping partners and individuals understand emotions and create more secure, connected interactions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Sehnaz works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Sehnaz is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access to care. These options allow clients to engage in therapy from home or other convenient locations, balance treatment with busy schedules, and maintain continuity of support when life becomes unpredictable. Licensed professionals and therapists can tailor session formats to meet practical needs while focusing on meaningful progress.
