Sehnaz Zor, LPC

Sehnaz Zor, LPC is a licensed professional counselor based in New Jersey who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She has 17 years of clinical experience and draws on many practical methods to support people through these challenges.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Psychological Counseling, and a post-master's certificate in professional counseling. She has worked in partial hospital and outpatient settings since 2003 and has led both individual and group work. This gives her a range of experience with common concerns such as grief, anxiety, depression, and adjustment to change.

In sessions she uses a mix of client-centered and cognitive-behavioral ideas, along with mindfulness and emotionally focused approaches. That means the work tends to focus on what matters to the person, noticing patterns of thought and behavior, and learning ways to regulate emotion in relationships.

Her style is warm, respectful, and goal oriented. She emphasizes clear, practical steps and collaboration, while honoring a person’s cultural background and differences. She also has experience helping people with family conflict, parenting stress, caregiving strain, and issues like abandonment or commitment worries.

Sehnaz offers guidance to people trying to find meaning or navigate a midlife shift. She encourages small, achievable changes that fit into daily life and aims to help people move toward greater purpose and connection.

Approaches that transfer well to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting a person where they are, which helps build trust and clarity about what a client wants to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotions within close relationships and teaches ways to express needs and repair connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan over time. That collaborative process helps find which techniques feel most useful for issues like midlife change, grief, or relationship strain.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, to check in during a work break, or to use shorter focused meetings for skill practice. Online sessions can support ongoing skill-building, emotional processing, and relationship work in ways that fit around daily life.
