I'm a licensed psychologist and cognitive psychology researcher based in Tehran, with a Ph.D. focused on developing and validating a social cognition training program for children with oppositional defiant disorder.

My research examines social cognition, theory of mind, cognitive flexibility, executive function, developmental psychopathology, and neuropsychological assessment. I've published peer-reviewed work on obsessive-compulsive symptoms, child behavioral problems, sleep disorders, trauma, addiction, and adolescent mental health.

I taught cognitive psychology, general psychology, and social pathology at Allameh Tabataba'i University, and developmental psychology, sensation and perception, psychopathology, and related undergraduate courses at Payame Noor University.

I'm an editorial board member and peer reviewer for Shafaye Khatam Neuroscience Quarterly. My practice-oriented training includes cognitive assessment and rehabilitation, neurofeedback and QEEG, cognitive-behavioral child psychotherapy, play therapy, autism coaching, and cognitive rehabilitation.
