About Seda
Seda Terzyan is a California psychologist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and panic-related concerns. She speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on practical steps. Seda encourages honest conversation about thoughts and feelings so people can start feeling steadier in day-to-day life.
With ten years of clinical experience, she draws on approaches that emphasize actions and thinking patterns. Seda often uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and practice different responses. She also brings mindfulness exercises and brief solution-focused work into sessions when those methods fit the person’s goals.
In the therapy room, Seda aims to make space for whatever comes up without judgment. She works with clients to set small, manageable goals and to build routines that support emotional balance. Sessions may include guided exercises, thought-reframing, and homework between meetings to reinforce progress.
People who struggle with relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, or trauma-related concerns can expect a steady, structured approach. Seda also addresses areas like chronic pain and somatization by linking physical symptoms to stress and coping strategies. Panic disorder and panic attacks are part of her listed focus areas and are approached through practical skills and gradual exposure to feared sensations when appropriate.
Beginning therapy involves a few simple steps: a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability. Seda encourages those taking the first step to try a session and see how the working relationship develops.
How Seda Uses ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness Online
Seda often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on acting in line with personal values even when uncomfortable emotions appear and can help with anxiety and life direction concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another frequent tool she uses to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and to test new behaviors. CBT techniques can be useful for panic-related symptoms by breaking down fear cycles and practicing different responses to anxious thoughts.
Mindfulness Therapy appears in sessions as short, guided practices that teach gentle attention to the present moment. These exercises can reduce reactivity and help with stress, rumination, and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Seda will work with each person to weigh methods against their goals, comfort, and daily life needs. Together they decide which tools to try and adjust them as progress unfolds.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, cut down commute time, and use brief check-ins when needed. It also allows work on skills with real-life practice between sessions, helping people apply techniques to everyday situations.
