About Froogh

Froogh Vakili-Khatibloo is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 20 years of experience. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns, including anger, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship problems, grief, trauma, and career stress.

She offers psychotherapy and harm-reduction work for people managing substance use and related goals. She combines straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy with mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful patterns. She also uses interpersonal approaches to address communication and relationship strain.

Froogh draws on trauma-focused tools when people are recovering from abuse or significant loss. She teaches practical anger management and conflict skills so people can communicate more assertively and reduce the blowups that harm their relationships. She also supports people exploring identity, including members of LGBT communities and people of color.

Her work includes career consultation for job loss, career change, workplace problems, and disability applications. She offers clinical supervision and peer consultation for unlicensed clinicians and graduate students.

Sessions are offered in English and Persian. She has experience working with Medicare, Medicaid, EAPs, and workers compensation panels from her community mental health background. To begin, users complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Froogh often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action while learning to notice thoughts without getting stuck in them; it can help with anger that comes from avoidance or rigid thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies the thoughts and behaviors that drive strong emotional reactions and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger management.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That means clients and the therapist work together to pick which methods to use and when to shift course.

Confirm the current session options before booking, because formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a work break, or a phone conversation when bandwidth is limited. It also lets people continue with therapy while managing relocation or travel. Practical benefits include easier scheduling and the ability to practice skills in everyday settings, but confirm exactly which session formats are offered before you schedule.
