Sehnaz Zor, LPC - Therapist in New Jersey

About Sehnaz

Sehnaz Zor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship problems. She has 17 years of clinical experience and uses straightforward, compassionate guidance to help people facing difficult life transitions. She speaks English and Turkish and brings practical tools to conversations rather than technical language.

Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Psychological Counseling, and a Post-Master’s Certificate in Professional Counseling.

Background and approach

She has practiced in both partial hospital and outpatient settings since 2003. Much of her work has been individual and group counseling, and she has regularly provided couples, marriage, and family therapy. In sessions she blends client-centered and cognitive approaches with emotionally-focused and mindfulness practices.

That means she listens closely, helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, and supports stronger emotional connection in relationships. She also draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning when life feels unsettled. Her style is warm, respectful, and down-to-earth.

She aims to be fair and nonjudgmental while helping clients clarify goals and take small, doable steps forward. Parents and families may find this approach useful for communication problems, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and parenting challenges. Sehnaz uses techniques to address anger, attachment concerns, divorce and separation, and issues tied to guilt or shame.

She focuses on practical changes alongside exploring values, so clients can move toward clearer purpose and steadier daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Sehnaz often uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so clients feel heard and understood; it helps when people need a safe space to sort through feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought patterns and teaches simple skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which can ease anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people notice emotional patterns in relationships and learn new ways to connect and respond to one another.

Choosing which approach to use is part of the work together. She collaborates with clients to decide what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That way the plan evolves as progress is made and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and keep momentum between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver the same conversational, skills-based, and relationship-focused care she uses in-person.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
