CLARITY PSYCHOLOGY
Meet Pari
Choosing a therapist is personal. Beyond experience and training, it's important to find someone you feel comfortable talking with; someone who listens, understands, and meets you where you are.
My hope is that this page gives you a sense of who I am, how I approach therapy, and what working together may feel like.
A little About Me
I'm Pari Semsar, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and the founder of Clarity Psychology in Edina.
I earned my master's degree in counseling from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota and have spent more than ten years supporting adults in a variety of mental health settings.
Today I help adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic stress, burnout, and life transitions through both in-person therapy in Edina and secure online therapy throughout Minnesota.

Sometimes the hardest part isn't what you're feeling; It's simply finding the words.

What You Can Expect
You don't have to come to therapy with the right words or all the answers. You don't even have to know exactly where to begin.
My role is to offer experience, curiosity, and a space where we can understand what's happening together; one conversation at a time.
Over time, many people notice that conversations feel easier, anxious thoughts don't linger as long, relationships feel more manageable, and they respond to life's challenges with greater confidence and flexibility.
My Approach
CBT
Understanding thoughts and behaviors.
ACT
Building psychological flexibility.
EMDR
Healing from trauma.
Trauma-Informed
Safety, trust, and collaboration.
Mindfulness
Staying grounded in the present.
