About Me

I am a registered psychologist in supervised practice under supervision of Dr. Khush Amaria, PhD, CPsych, and Dr Jennifer Carey PsyD, CPsych, at CBT Associates with an exceptional academic background and over a decade of successful experience in practicing, researching, and teaching cognitive and behavioural therapies. Proficient in applying diverse therapeutic modalities, I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral approaches to establish strong therapeutic connections and facilitate transformative progress for diverse adult populations dealing with acute or chronic mental health challenges. I maintain a steadfast commitment to ethical standards and embrace a welcoming and empathetic demeanour.

I hold a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) and completed my predoctoral internship and training at Tehran Psychiatric Institute. I have earned diverse experience across settings, including general hospitals and psychiatric facilities. In these roles, I skillfully applied CBT to address an array of psychological concerns, ranging from anxiety, depression, OCD, to procrastination, and personality challenges. Specializing in anxiety and related disorders, I have made valuable contributions to the field with several publications in this area.

Within academic environments, I have shared my expertise by teaching CBT courses for graduate students and conducting workshops on cognitive and behavioural approaches. I am deeply committed to providing evidence-based psychotherapies, particularly CBT and its newer generations, to adult individual clients. My goal is to improve clients’ well-being and optimize their psychological functioning.
