About My Clients

I work best with high-functioning adults and couples who appear “put together” but feel anxious, disconnected, or emotionally overwhelmed inside. Many struggle with attachment wounds, self-doubt, depression, or repeating relationship patterns. I also support new mothers navigating identity shifts and couples wanting deeper connection. My ideal clients are insightful, motivated for growth, and ready to move beyond coping toward lasting emotional change and secure relationships.

My Background and Approach

I’m Setareh Sassani, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with training in Attachment Theory, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Family Systems. My integrative approach allows me to tailor treatment to each client’s unique history, personality, and goals rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship distress, and life transitions, including new motherhood and identity shifts. My training helps clients understand the deeper roots of their emotional patterns while also developing practical tools to regulate emotions, improve communication, and create healthier boundaries. Clients often tell me they appreciate that our work is both insightful and actionable. You won’t just gain awareness you’ll learn how to apply it in your daily life. I provide a warm, attuned, and direct space where you can safely explore.
