CA
My name is Roya Bayat-Makoui, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with an MBA degree. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Alliant International University. Most of my psychotherapy experience has been at a trauma center, working with clients of all ages and cultural backgrounds. I also have years of experience with the forensic population in both group and individual therapy, using eclectic approaches to address PTSD, depression, anxiety, situational stress, loss and grief, and work and family difficulties. My approach My therapy is eclectic because everyone is different and their needs vary. Depending on the client’s age and situation, I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Psychodynamic, Psychoanalysis, and Humanistic approaches. My focus I work with clients aged five to seventy-five from diverse backgrounds and find it easy to connect with them. I especially enjoy working with couples and families to improve daily interactions. Most of my experience centers on PTSD, depression, anxiety, situational stress, loss and grief, and work and family difficulties. My communication style I provide a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free environment. I naturally have a calm demeanor and soft tone, which supports this process. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been fascinated by people and cultures. I believe deeply in humanity, and being a therapist allows me to help people live meaningful lives. My goals for you When setting goals, I explain that therapy sessions belong to clients, and I walk alongside them with a flashlight—illuminating their path without crossing it. It’s important they know they are not alone but that it is their path to experience and evolve. My first session with you The first session is about dialogue and connection. It is essential for the client to feel comfortable.
