Dezireh Jamshidarsani, LCSW Therapist & Intern Coordinator
Hi, I'm Dezireh!
I'm glad you're here, and I would love to work with you to achieve the positive changes you're hoping to see in your daily life. As a therapist, I believe in providing a safe, nurturing space to take those first steps toward support and healing. When a positive and safe environment is created, meaningful work can happen between client and therapist. Together, we will design a plan that aligns with your needs, and as you grow, that plan will evolve with you. I truly believe that growth comes when we face challenges, and I am here to sit with you as you take those steps toward your goals.
I work with children (ages 9-12), teens, adults, and families to overcome difficult relationships, whether at home, work, or within the community, by providing coping strategies and practical tools. Therapy can include interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Shame-Informed Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), goal setting, increasing resilience, and enhancing personal growth. In addition, I incorporate creative techniques like play therapy and sand tray, which are especially helpful in exploring emotions and experiences in a more expressive and accessible way. My approach is grounded in empathy, open-mindedness, and authenticity, ensuring that we work in the ways that are most beneficial to you. I have had the privilege of working across a variety of settings, including day treatment, residential treatment, and outpatient care, which has allowed me to develop a well-rounded approach to therapy. In my work with clients, I focus on building a trusting and supportive relationship, guiding them through challenges, and fostering growth. In addition to my clinical practice, I also offer supervision for individuals pursuing their Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) credentials in the Commonwealth of Virginia. My supervision approach is designed to provide a supportive, reflective space where we can collaborate on building clinical skills, exploring professional growth, and working toward successful licensure. Whether you're seeking guidance for your clinical work or navigating the licensure process, I am here to support you every step of the way. I am currently offering both in person and telehealth options.
