About Nazila

Nazila Aghazadeh is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with ten years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting questions, and issues related to ADHD and self-esteem.

Background and approach

Her sessions tend to be warm and interactive. She meets people where they are and helps them identify strengths and small steps toward change.

Conversations are practical and grounded so clients can try new ways of relating and coping between sessions. Nazila uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs.

She draws on the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, attachment-based ideas for closeness and security, and cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors. Dialectical behavior skills are included when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

She has experience offering online care with video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier for people with busy lives or long commutes. Sessions are presented in English and Persian for those who prefer either language.

Nazila emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. She focuses on practical tools and clearer communication so people feel more hopeful and able to take steps toward their goals.

If someone wants to talk about parenting strain, career stress, family conflict, or restoring intimacy, she aims to provide steady guidance.

How Nazila’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based work focuses on how people form bonds and feel safe with others; it helps when mistrust, abandonment fears, or repeating old patterns get in the way of close relationships. The Gottman Method looks at everyday interaction patterns between partners and teaches specific communication and repair skills to reduce conflict and increase connection. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and offers concrete alternatives to reduce anxiety and lift mood.

Nazila approaches this work collaboratively. She will talk with each person about goals and try different techniques to see what fits best. Together they decide whether to emphasize relationship skills, attachment work, CBT tools, or a mix based on what the client needs and prefers.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and skill practice, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share updates between meetings. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or long commutes while maintaining consistent support from a licensed professional.
