Online Therapy & Therapy Intensives for Scottsdale Professionals

schedule your free consultation

You’re busy. You’re accomplished. And while you may look like you have it all together on the outside, there’s a part of you that knows something’s not quite right on the inside. 


And now, you feel ready to explore, unpack, heal, and move forward. As a high-achieving professional in Scottsdale, you might not have time to drive across town for therapy—or maybe you simply prefer the privacy and comfort of your own home. No worries—I’ve got you.


I offer virtual therapy and therapy intensives designed with your lifestyle in mind. If the traditional one-hour-a-week model doesn’t feel like enough, I provide extended sessions and intensives that allow for deeper, more focused support on your schedule. My approach honors the full spectrum of who you are—mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually—offering integrative therapy that meets you exactly where you are.


Even with all your success, something inside feels off. Maybe you’ve been feeling anxious or overwhelmed, but you keep pushing through because you’re used to holding it all together. 


Perhaps there’s a lingering sadness or heaviness you can’t quite name. You might feel disconnected—from your body, your emotions, your sense of purpose, or the people around you. Or maybe you’re someone who feels everything all at once and it’s just too much to process on your own.


You may be experiencing racing thoughts, physical tension, or moments where your system shuts down completely. 


Some days you might feel like you’re constantly on edge or over-functioning, while other times you feel frozen, numb, or stuck in place. These nervous system states—fight, flight, freeze, or fawn—are often signs that something deeper is asking to be seen.


Underneath it all, you may be carrying old beliefs that you’re too much, not enough, or that it’s not safe to be vulnerable. These beliefs often stem from past experiences—childhood emotional neglect, high-pressure environments, unresolved trauma, or moments where you had to disconnect from yourself just to keep going. 


Or maybe life looks pretty good on paper—your career is solid, your relationships are stable, and you're doing the inner work. But something still feels stuck. You can sense there’s a next level waiting for you, whether it’s a deeper relationship, a bold career move, or living more fully in alignment with your desires. You’re not in crisis, but you know you’re ready for more. Therapy can be the space where you access that next layer of clarity, confidence, and embodiment.


Whatever your story is, you’re not broken—and you don’t have to figure it out alone. There’s a way forward that’s attuned to your pace, your body, and your truth.



What I Offer:


I specialize in virtual therapy and therapy intensives that are designed for deep, lasting change. My work blends evidence-based modalities with somatic and spiritual practices to help you reconnect with yourself on every level—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.


Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for your system. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all model. I offer 50-minute sessions, extended sessions (90+ minutes), and therapy intensives for those who want to go deeper without the constraints of weekly therapy. Intensives are ideal for navigating big transitions, processing trauma, or integrating psychedelic or plant medicine experiences.


My approach draws from:


  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help resolve stuck memories and patterns
     
  • Somatic Experiencing to release stored tension and restore nervous system regulation
     
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) to compassionately explore and heal your inner parts
     
  • Mindfulness and Breathwork to anchor into presence and support emotional processing
     
  • Psychedelic and Plant Medicine Preparation & Integration to help you land insights from expanded states into real life




 

Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, burnout, trauma, or simply feel ready to live in greater alignment, I offer a grounded, personalized, and compassionate space for healing and would be honored to support you on your journey!

A Little Bit About Me

Sarai Darbandi, Therapist, Coaching, & Breathwork Facilitator

I’ve been in the helping field since 2009, with over a decade of experience working at a community mental health center supporting individuals from all walks of life. After becoming independently licensed, I took a leap of faith and transitioned into private practice—driven by a desire to offer deeper, more personalized care rooted in the approaches that have truly transformed my own life.

What brought me here wasn’t just professional training—it was my own healing journey. Like many of my clients, I’ve navigated the impacts of childhood trauma, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, and nervous system dysregulation. The modalities I use today—like EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, IFS, breathwork, and mindfulness—aren’t just techniques I learned in training. They’re the very practices that helped me not only heal past trauma, but also break through to new levels of alignment, purpose, and wholeness in my life.


I believe healing & transformation is an ongoing process, and I continue to invest in my own personal and professional growth. I’m currently engaged in advanced training and mentorship so I can keep showing up as the most attuned, skillful, and grounded version of myself—as a human and as a therapist.


I look forward to meeting you and serving you!
