About Me
Hi, I am Dr. Chelze Zamani.
My pronouns are she/her/hers. I am a licensed psychotherapist, which means I am a professional who provides therapeutic services to those searching for mental health support. I am also the founder of Forever Caring Mental Health and am excited to support you on this next step and process. I believe in authenticity, inclusion, and healing. I work well with those who have experienced difficult times, been afraid to reach out, and are looking for someone to help them feel seen for who they are. Here to support you and am forever caring in all the spaces in between.
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS!
Here to hold space for you! It has been hard times, to say the least. Take a moment to, pause, and thank yourself for making it this far. If you have found this resource it means that you are looking for that next step towards change. I am passionate in supporting biological, blended, and chosen families. I also enjoy working with parents/caregivers working on developing a more fluid relationship with their children (young or adult). As well as couple's learning how to navigate what a romantic relationship means to them. In addition, I offer support for other healers and therapists in deepening their own connection with their healing journey. Here is what to expect in therapy:
- Contact me for a FREE or donation based 20 minute consultation to get a better sense of my style and who I am as a therapist.
- If you choose to reach out, we can discuss options on service fees and therapeutic options.
- I offer services for families, groups, individuals, caregivers, couples, teens, sib(nib)lings & friendships!
PROFESSIONAL Q & A
Learn More...
Do you have any questions about applying to a Couples/Marriage & Family Therapy graduate school program? Have you wondered about the difference between getting your masters degree versus a doctoral degree within the mental health field? As a first gen professional, I had to research and learn about everything all on my own. Sometimes I missed things and other times I felt deeply grateful for others who were able to help support my professional development along the way. This is why I decided to offer a Professional Q & A for you!

Afghan-mixed group support
6 Weeks Online for $45 per Session
THIS GROUP IS CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS
I have been wanting to offer this for some time now. It is one thing to be Afghan in the U.S. and it is also another experience to be Afghan-Mixed in the U.S. You are not alone in that feeling of not fully belonging and being different. With the U.S. pulling out of Afghanistan anniversary coming up in August, I wanted to create a space to share, connect, and discuss how we have all been sitting with ourselves, our cultures, and our communities. This group is not group therapy, is open to residence 18+ everywhere, and welcomes people of all genders.
Steps to sign up/ask questions:
- Email: zchelze@gmail.com with Subject: Afghan-Mixed Group
- Provide the following info:
- What brings you to this group space?
- What experience have you had thus far with group spaces and mental health services?
- What is your mixed identity?
- What do you hope to gain from this offering?
- Any other info/inquiries you would like to provide me.
After you send this email I will follow up with further information. I look forward to connecting with you!
Land Acknowledgement
I acknowledge that we’re meeting on various stolen Lands that are sacred to several Indigenous Peoples. I thank the Indigenous Peoples for stewarding these Lands for generations. I pay respect to the Elders, past, present, and future. I acknowledge that as a settler, I occupy and participate in exploitation of land that are not mine. I advocate for Land Back and Indigenous sovereignty. With reverence and gratitude, I invite us to meet with the intention to learn, heal, and change, and decolonize our ways of being, and to dismantle colonial systems. May we, as a community, consider our toles in the liberations, and restoration of Land, language, and culture for all Indigenous Peoples and forcefully displaced communities. I pay respect to our ancestors that guide us as we reflect on our responsibilities and impact on this and future generations.
My office is located on the land of: Tongva, Acjachmen (Juaneño), Kizh
“Decolonization brings about the re[m]atriation of Indigenous land and life.”
-Tuck & Yung, Decolonization is not a metaphor
"We don't inherent the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children."
-Indigenous Proverb
Land Back may look like:
•Get to know and connect with local Indigenous communities
•Pay voluntary land taxes: nativegov.org/voluntary-land-taxes
•Restoring land stewardship to Indigenous People, “Give the Land back. All of it” –Cutcha Risling Baldy
•Begin by understanding government & private land ownership. Connect with Landback movements
•Honoring land treaties. Learn about treaties, unceded land, traditional territory, and land claims (See: Indigenous Canada)
•Support Indigenous sovereignty, uplift Indigenous voices and values in current political systems (Indigenoustiktok)
•Protect & restore health of Land, Water, Air, and all life on Land
•Resist climate change & capitalistic Land exploitation
