About Sharareh
LMFT in California with 28 years of experience, Sharareh Ghedari works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family concerns, and life transitions. She also focuses on immigration-related issues, multicultural concerns, postpartum depression, and challenges common to young adults. Sessions are conducted in English and Persian.
Sharareh frames sessions as practical conversations. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thoughts and behaviors, Motivational Interviewing to build momentum for change, and Internal Family Systems to look at conflicting parts inside a person. She aims to make goals clear and measurable so progress can be tracked.
In sessions she helps people identify small, workable steps. For someone feeling overwhelmed by change, that might mean planning a single manageable action between meetings. For relationship strain, it can involve practicing a new way of speaking and listening during role-play exercises.
Her background spans nearly three decades of clinical work in California. The pace is steady and directive when needed, and collaborative when weighing options. She adapts conversations and plans based on the client’s situation and the issues they bring.
Practical matters such as cost and scheduling are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the site.

How her approaches shape online sessions
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In practice this means noticing unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of responding to reduce anxiety and stress. Motivational Interviewing focuses on the client’s own reasons for change. It uses focused questions and reflection to build commitment for concrete steps. Internal Family Systems treats conflicting inner parts as voices to understand and work with, which can help with relationship patterns and emotional overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has helped before. From there they try methods that match those needs and adjust as progress is tracked. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day and reduce travel time. Phone sessions can allow a shorter check-in, while video lets the therapist and client use visual cues during practice exercises. The main practical benefit is arranging sessions to fit daily life while keeping a focus on concrete steps and measurable goals.
