About Zohreh
Zohreh Safarnezhadi is an ACA counsellor with five years of professional experience in Australia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and parenting. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and believes people carry strengths that help them move forward.
Zohreh works in a straightforward, respectful way. She listens first and helps people name what matters to them. Sessions focus on small, practical steps that fit into everyday life. She avoids jargon and keeps conversations clear and direct.
Her approach draws on evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, alongside mindfulness and trauma-focused work. That mix is used to help with emotional regulation, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and coping after difficult events. Zohreh explains techniques and practises them together with the person in the room.
People come to Zohreh for help with parenting stress, family conflict, and the strain of ongoing anxiety or trauma. She also supports those facing health-related challenges, relationship communication issues, and codependency concerns. Her style is steady and collaborative rather than prescriptive.
Sessions are conducted in English and Persian. The therapist asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. Zohreh aims to support people who are ready to take small, courageous steps toward change.
Therapeutic approaches and what they offer online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on values and meaningful action. It helps people recognise what matters to them and take steps in that direction even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns.Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and then decide together which methods to try. That means sessions are tailored and reviewed as progress is made rather than fixed from the start.
Please confirm current online session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practise skills between meetings in the settings where challenges occur. Appropriately qualified therapists will help match the approach and format to each person's practical needs and daily routine.
