Frances Nedjat-Haiem, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Frances! My name is Frances Nedjat-Haiem, PhD, LCSW. I am a licensed clinical social worker in California with over 18 years of experience working with individuals and families who have experienced trauma due to medical illness and difficulty coping. My expertise involves assisting clients with life transitions, especially with people experiencing loss, grief, and bereavement and difficulty managing to cope changes that accompany these issues. I have degrees in social welfare (MSW) and advanced academic training in social work (PhD) with a focus on supporting individual and family decision-making in chronic disease management and end-of-life care. My approach Through my extensive experience and training in Motivational Interviewing (MI), I have developed a unique and effective approach to helping clients deal with challenging issues. In my practice, I utilize evidence-based therapeutic interventions, including MI, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused, and Narrative therapies. My approach is collaborative, and client centered. My focus If you have experienced a sudden change in your family due to illness and are having a hard time doing everyday things, feeling run down, overwhelmed, or empty most of the time, it is time to seek assistance. It is time to address your experience with guidance as I have a deep understanding of the mechanisms that drive one to struggle. Evidence-based strategies and deep compassion models counteract the negative voices and feelings of guilt. We all have pain that needs love and acceptance. My communication style One of my favorite things about meeting new patients is hearing them tell me how much better they feel after a first session. With expert guidance and a direct communication style, relief can be found through insight. Change can happen quickly by making connections to resources and finding additional support.
