Getting to know Sherisa (Alicia) Abbaspour

With curiosity and care, we will create a therapeutic space for you to gain greater insight into yourself and your relationships. I approach our space with warmth and understanding, while challenging you to deepen your attunement to yourself. I’ll guide us through whatever is coming up right now–whether it’s a general sense of "stuckness,"challenging life transitions, or identity exploration. We’ll learn how the past may be impacting the present and how to find more easeful paths forward. Using a holistic framework, we’ll draw from psychodynamic and relational therapies for greater introspection and utilize tangible tools from cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapies. I often work with adolescents and young adults, queer and trans folks, and POC communities on a range of challenges. Our work is contextualized in the larger social, cultural, and political realities that may shape your life and experiences. I root my practice in anti-oppressive and feminist values, and draw on my experiences as a queer Middle Eastern clinician. Therapy is a discipline of hope, a belief that things can feel different. Carving out a space for growth and change is possible. Reach out to start the process together today.
