Siamak Ehteshamzadeh

Siamak Ehteshamzadeh is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom who helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and depression. He has five years of professional experience and holds HCPC registration. He offers a calm, non-judgemental presence to help people take the first step toward change.

He focuses on practical ways to manage strong feelings and upsetting memories. In sessions he encourages people to name what matters to them and to notice patterns that keep them stuck. He will work alongside clients to try different strategies and see what fits their life.

His approach draws on therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing. These methods are used to support coping with anxiety, low mood, trauma reactions and relationship strain.

Siamak aims to make sessions straightforward and down to earth. He invites honest conversation about difficult topics and helps people build small skills they can use between meetings. He also offers support around concerns such as body image, caregiver stress, hoarding, isolation and midlife change.

Sessions are conducted in English and Persian, and he accepts international clients. To begin, clients follow the site start process to match with him, complete a short questionnaire, and arrange sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn small steps to live in line with those values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical changes in behaviour to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) aims to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories by working through them in a structured way with the counsellor.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your concerns and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together you can adjust the plan if something does not feel like a good fit, and blend approaches when that better meets your goals.

Practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions around daily life and the ability to meet without travel. The profile indicates international clients are accepted, but it does not list specific session formats here, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people appreciate that remote sessions can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, reduce time spent travelling and schedule appointments that suit work or caregiving responsibilities.
