Neda Naghavi

Becoming a therapist has been a journey shaped by my own personal challenges and a deep-seated desire to support others. From a young age, I found myself drawn to listening and offering comfort to those around me. As I navigated the complexities of adapting to three different cultures and expectations, I grew increasingly aware of how life’s transitions shape our sense of self and connection. These experiences strengthened my empathy for those facing uncertainty and pain. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, to carry the weight of unspoken pain, and to wonder if change is possible. Seeking personal therapy was a turning point for me -- it taught me the transformative power of being truly seen, heard, and supported. Having experienced being in the place of a client myself, I’ve come to deeply appreciate the courage it takes to seek help and the vulnerability that comes with it. With the right guidance, I learned to approach my challenges with compassion, uncover resilience, and find clarity. This personal growth has only deepened my commitment to helping others navigate their own paths. Today, as a therapist, I am honored to walk alongside clients in their moments of doubt and discovery. My passion lies in creating a space where they can uncover their inner strength, heal at their own pace, and reconnect with their authentic selves. For me, being a therapist isn’t just a profession -- it’s a continuation of a lifelong calling to support, uplift, and empower others.
