Sepideh Cheraghi
Insight-led psychodynamic counsellor
About Sepideh
Sepideh Cheraghi uses a psychodynamic approach to help people understand patterns that keep causing pain. She offers therapy in English and Persian and works with a wide range of issues. Sepideh is registered with the BACP and practices from the United Kingdom.
Her sessions focus on how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. She helps people notice repeating patterns, make sense of difficult emotions, and slow down automatic responses.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to build clearer self-understanding rather than quick fixes. Sepideh has four years of experience working with people from different backgrounds. She sees concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma.
She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment worries, and intimacy-related matters. Other areas she works with include eating and sleeping problems, body image, codependency, communication difficulties and career-related stress. She also assists people navigating kink and alternative sex culture, blended family issues, divorce and separation, and caregiving strain.
Sessions can address practical coping skills alongside deeper reflection. People can expect steady, curious listening and a focus on connections between past and present. The aim is clearer choices and more manageable day-to-day reactions.

Psychodynamic insight through online therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how earlier relationships and experiences shape current feelings and behaviours. In practice this means talking through recurring reactions and emotional patterns to gain clearer understanding and new choices. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, attachment issues and relationship or intimacy concerns.The therapist will treat finding the right approach as a joint process. Sessions begin with simple conversations about goals and what feels most pressing. Together the therapist and client check how the work is going and adapt the focus to suit the client’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people read facial expression and tone, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be quicker check-ins, and messaging can be used for shorter reflections between sessions. These options give flexibility for different routines, time zones and comfort levels with being on camera.
