Nazanin Moghadami

Hello and welcome. My name is Nazanin Moghadami, and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor, activist, and community organizer practicing in what is known as British Columbia. My approach to counseling is shaped by my experiences as a queer, BIPOC, immigrant woman, and is strongly rooted in a feminist, anti-oppression, and justice-oriented framework. Together, we will explore how the patterns we learned and created as children manifest in our adult lives and how they may have diverged from their original purposes. My approach is collaborative and consent-based.

I have training in various modalities, including EMDR, Hakomi, CBT, Focusing, IFS, and Narrative Therapy. My specialty areas include:

• Interpersonal and relationship issues
• Personal development
• Sexuality and gender identity
• Trauma and violence
• Partner abuse
• Immigration and adjustment
• Life transitions
• Queer counseling
• Couple's counseling
• Trans counseling
• Poly and kink-friendly counseling

During our sessions, we may focus on finding practical solutions to immediate issues or revisit formative memories from the past. Sometimes, our work will center on somatic (body) experiences, and other times on cognitive (mind) processes. You will bring your expertise in your life, and I will bring my professional experience. We will meet in the space in the middle.
