About Froogh

Froogh Vakili-Khatibloo is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with two decades of experience in psychotherapy and counseling in Ohio.

Background and approach

She works with individuals and couples navigating life transitions, mood concerns, substance use challenges, relationship difficulties, and trauma, drawing on long experience in community mental health and harm reduction practices. Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with interpersonal methods and mindfulness practices to address depression, anxiety, bipolar-related concerns, and other mood disorders.

She also uses motivational interviewing to help clients set goals, shift unhelpful patterns, and move toward desired changes. Trauma work and grief recovery are emphasized through strategies that support resilience and gradual healing.

Vakili-Khatibloo offers career and employment consultation, assistance with coping after job loss, and support around workplace issues. She provides an accepting space for exploration of identity, intimacy, and communication skills, and works with clients on anger management, parenting concerns, sleep difficulties, and many other challenges.

She communicates in English and Persian and is available to international clients.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Froogh often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical strategies for changing emotions and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide clients toward values-driven action and learning to live with difficult feelings rather than trying to eliminate them.

Finding the right approach is presented as a collaborative process. The therapist works together with each person to explore which methods feel most helpful, adjust techniques over time, and set goals that match the client’s needs, preferences, and life circumstances.

Online therapy with Froogh is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work during transitions, and maintain continuity when in-person meetings are not possible.
