About Seda

Seda Terzyan is a California psychologist who focuses on supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship strain. She explains things plainly and helps clients take small steps toward feeling more able to cope. Seda emphasizes a nonjudgmental space for people to talk about difficult thoughts and emotions. She notes that seeking help takes courage and honors that first step.

Over her ten years of practice she has worked with trauma and abuse, attachment concerns, and mood disorders, including postpartum depression and panic attacks. She also addresses issues like chronic pain, somatization, guilt and shame, and the fallout from traumatic brain injury. Her work can include helping people find greater self-love, clarify life purpose, and manage obsessive or compulsive symptoms.

Seda draws on approaches that aim to change unhelpful thinking and increase meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice thought patterns and test different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages clarifying values and committing to actions that matter. Mindfulness practices are used to bring attention back to the present moment and reduce reactivity.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Seda helps clients set clear, manageable steps between appointments. She balances practical tools with space to process feelings, and she adjusts pace to each person’s needs.

She is licensed in California as CA Psychologist 29251 and conducts her practice in English. If you are looking for straightforward, steady support while you work through anxiety, depression, or pregnancy and childbirth-related concerns, Seda offers a calm and practical approach.

How Seda uses evidence-based methods in online work

Seda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, then try different behaviors to see what changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward those values, even when emotions are difficult.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Seda treats the choice of method as collaborative and will help clients decide which mix of techniques fits their needs and goals. She adjusts plans over time based on what is helping and what feels workable for each person.

Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make attending sessions easier by removing travel time and allowing appointments to fit into busy days. It also lets people use practices learned in sessions in their everyday environment and can simplify follow-up between appointments. Discuss scheduling preferences and practical needs when you set up your first meeting so sessions fit into your routine.
