Sehnaz Zor , LPC

Sehnaz Zor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with 17 years of clinical experience and 15 years of full licensure. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (1994), a Master of Arts in Psychological Counseling (2001), and a Post-Master's Certificate in Professional Counseling (2003). Since 2003 she has worked in both partial hospital and outpatient settings, developing broad experience in individual and group therapy as well as ongoing work with couples, marriages, and families.

Her practice focuses on a wide range of concerns including depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, family conflict, anxiety and stress, anger, adjustment to life changes, and questions related to meaning and purpose. She also has experience addressing trauma and abuse, parenting and caregiver stress, attachment and abandonment issues, and challenges such as isolation, guilt, shame, and infidelity. Across these areas she blends person-centered and humanistic influences with cognitive-behavioral techniques, reality-oriented strategies, and solution-focused interventions to tailor treatment to each person’s needs.

Sehnaz approaches therapy with respect, professionalism, empathy, and compassion, aiming to walk alongside individuals and families as they explore barriers to growth and pursue greater well-being. She offers culturally sensitive care that honors each person’s unique background and strengths and supports clients in moving toward clearer purpose and more fulfilling relationships.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care for Lasting Change

Sehnaz Zor uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment in which clients are encouraged to explore their thoughts and feelings and to build self-understanding - this approach is often helpful for relationship concerns, grief, and issues of self-esteem. She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety, depression, stress, and anger. Additionally, emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) is used when relationship and attachment patterns are central - EFT helps partners and family members better understand emotional responses and reshape interaction patterns to improve connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sehnaz works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting plans over time as therapy progresses to ensure the best possible match.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for those balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care, access therapy from home or elsewhere, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
