About Sepideh
Sepideh Cheraghi works from a psychodynamic approach to help people understand patterns that keep causing pain. She introduces gentle, thoughtful questions to help clients see how past experiences shape present feelings and choices. Sessions are offered in English and Persian to support people from different language backgrounds.
Sepideh aims to create a calm space where people can talk about difficult feelings and recurring problems. She focuses on improving self-awareness so clients can make different decisions in daily life.
Background and approach
Conversations may uncover family patterns, attachment wounds, or unfinished losses that affect current relationships and mood. Her background includes work across cultural settings in Europe and the Middle East. That experience informs how she notices cultural and identity issues in the room.
Sepideh brings four years of professional practice in the United Kingdom and holds BACP credentials. Common themes she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, body image and eating-related difficulties. She also supports people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges and parenting pressures.
When people start with Sepideh they usually begin by describing a few practical goals. From there she helps them notice old patterns, test new behaviours and build more helpful habits. This work moves at the client’s pace and prioritises clear steps people can use between sessions.
To get started, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How Sepideh works online
When issues like attachment wounds, abandonment fears or longstanding low self-esteem come up, psychodynamic work aims to increase self-awareness and insight. This kind of exploration can help with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and some forms of trauma by making hidden dynamics clearer and more manageable.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and preferences. Together they decide how much focus to give to past patterns, current coping skills, or practical changes in day-to-day life.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow quieter, more regular check-ins during the working week. Some people prefer shorter conversations by phone for quick support, while others choose longer conversations for deeper exploration; these choices can be discussed when arranging sessions.
