About Sehnaz
Sehnaz uses an approachable, person-centered style that centers each person’s experience. She blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with emotionally-focused and existential perspectives to address thoughts, feelings, and meaning. Mindfulness practices are used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Psychological Counseling, and a post-master’s certificate in Professional Counseling. She has provided individual and group work and has long experience offering couples, marriage, and family therapy alongside individual counseling.
Sessions aim for respect, empathy, and clear steps people can try between meetings. She often focuses on communication patterns, attachment concerns, and rebuilding trust after infidelity or separation. Practical tools for managing anxiety, anger, and depression are part of the work.
Sehnaz recognizes cultural differences and adapts to each person’s values and goals. She speaks English and Turkish and practices in New Jersey as a Licensed Professional Counselor. The approach emphasizes collaboration and helping people move toward greater meaning and purpose.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist offers empathic reflection and lets the client set goals, which helps with self-esteem, grief, and relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior. It uses practical exercises and short experiments that people can try between sessions to manage anxiety, depression, and anger.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional bonds and communication. It helps people identify and change interaction habits that lead to conflict or distance in relationships.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to pick strategies that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying different tools and adjusting course as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, cut travel time, and offer more flexible scheduling. Because the therapist's specific session formats are not listed here, confirm current options before booking. Online sessions still allow for active work such as guided CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, emotion-focused conversations, and planning between-session tasks to support progress.
