Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Parsa "Peter" Samii-Rashti draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor support to each person. ACT involves helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward meaningful goals - it can help with persistent anxiety or distress that gets in the way of living the life someone values. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and unconditional positive regard so individuals feel understood and supported as they explore their concerns. CBT offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and managing strong emotions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Peter works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts techniques over time as clients progress.

Online therapy with Peter is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access support from wherever clients are located within the same country, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists to address their concerns.
