Therapeutic approaches and online support
Yasaman Sherbaf integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own perspectives guide the work and self-exploration, which is helpful for issues like identity, self-esteem, and life transitions. CBT is a practical, skills-based approach that identifies and adjusts unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and coping with urges or self-destructive behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Yasaman works with each person to assess needs, set goals, and adjust techniques over time so that therapy fits the client’s preferences and evolving priorities. She combines empathy with structured tools to support progress.
Online therapy with Yasaman is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, reduce travel time, and access licensed professionals from diverse locations while working toward meaningful change.
