Experienced CBT therapist dedicated to improving mental health outcomes.

What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to further develop my skills in trauma therapy while working in a supportive environment that values mental health and well-being.

I am a dedicated CBT therapist with extensive experience in providing high-quality mental health care. Since 2015, I have been running my own private practice, Sepideh Ltd, where I see a diverse range of patients. My journey in mental health began in 1998, and I have since accumulated a wealth of experience working with various organizations, including IAPT and Priory Group, where I specialized in treating complex cases involving trauma and PTSD.

Throughout my career, I have worked with patients of all ages, from children to the elderly, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, and long-term conditions. My academic background includes a BSc in Integrative Psychotherapy and a postgraduate diploma in High Intensity CBT, complemented by ongoing professional development in existential psychotherapy. I am committed to continuous learning and applying evidence-based practices to support my patients effectively.
