I’m Nasim — a child, adolescent, and family psychologist and a mental health consultant based in Washington State.
For more than twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside children, teens, and their families. I truly believe that nothing is as pure, deep, and transformative as a child’s inner world.
Working with children isn’t just my profession — it’s part of who I am. Every day, they teach me something new, help me grow, and remind me of the beauty and meaning in being human.
My Therapeutic Approach
My work draws from play therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, meaning-centered therapy, applied behavior analysis, life-skills training, and mindfulness practices.
But above all, I believe that each person is a unique world, and therapy should honor that uniqueness. There is no one-size-fits-all path. My goal is always to find the approach that fits you.
Although my primary focus is working with children and adolescents, a meaningful part of my work also involves supporting parents and adults who want to build healthier relationships with themselves and their children. I believe that a child’s growth is deeply connected to a parent’s growth — and that self-improvement is often an essential part of a child’s healing process.
From Iran to the United States
In Iran, I spent many years working as a child and family psychologist and hosted several parenting programs on radio and television.
For the past several years in Washington State, I’ve continued this journey with families, schools, and mental health organizations — supporting the wellbeing of children, teenagers, and parents in my community.
Meaning, at the Heart of My Work
My core therapeutic approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy with meaning-centered therapy.
I deeply believe that people thrive when they can:
-
discover meaning in their lives,
-
create meaning through their choices,
-
and help their children experience a meaningful and grounded life.
My role is to help children, teens, and adults understand their story and shape the meaning they bring into it.
What I Believe
“The joy of childhood is an opportunity for learning.”
And every adult who stands beside a child has the power to make that opportunity deeper, richer, and more lasting
