About Seda
Seda Terzyan helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or relationship strain. She introduces a calm, steady presence so people can begin to talk about worries and feel heard. Seda is a California licensed psychologist with ten years of experience, and she uses practical strategies in sessions.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice values and take manageable steps.
How Seda works
Mindfulness practices are offered to build breathing and grounding skills that reduce reactivity. Seda also uses solution-focused ideas to uncover small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions often include a mix of skill practice, brief experiments, and problem-solving so people leave with concrete steps to try.
The work is collaborative and paced to what each person needs. She has spent a decade supporting people through trauma, depression, and issues like low self-esteem, guilt, and shame. Seda has additional experience with chronic pain and illness, somatization, obsessive concerns, panic, postpartum depression, and traumatic brain injury.
She helps clients explore life purpose and young adult challenges too. Seda offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. If someone is ready to begin, the next step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

Practical approaches for online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small actions that match what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches clear skills to change those patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Seda will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then use ACT, CBT, or mindfulness practices that best suit the situation. The plan is adjusted over time based on what is working and what needs to change, so the process stays collaborative.
Online sessions can be held by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit a busy life. Video is useful for full sessions and skill demonstrations, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text are handy for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep regular appointments and try therapy methods in everyday life.
