About Farhad
Counsellor Farhad Robinson is a UK-based practitioner and is registered with NCPS. He has three years of experience and lists stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD and relationship concerns among his core areas of practice.
Farhad uses a client-centred approach as the base of his work. He draws on psychodynamic ideas alongside other methods to help people talk through patterns, feelings and difficult events. Sessions are conversational and focus on what the person brings to each meeting rather than a fixed script.
He describes his role as attentive and direct when needed. That can mean looking at early experiences and how they affect current relationships, or helping someone notice repeating behaviours and impulses that cause distress. He also works with practical problems such as sleeping difficulties, parenting strain and career stress.
Farhad says he adapts his way of working to the person in front of him. That may include longer reflections on past experience or shorter, action-focused discussions about coping and routines. He also lists additional focuses such as attachment issues, body image, dissociation and isolation.
Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. The profile notes a subscription-based fee model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people are asked to use the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and remote counselling
Farhad works from a client-centred framework which focuses on listening and following what the person brings to the session. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to talk through current problems and to work out practical next steps.He also uses psychodynamic ideas that look at past experience and recurring patterns. That way of working can be useful for relationship difficulties, attachment issues and repeating behaviours that cause distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Farhad will discuss what seems most helpful and try different ways of working based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. It is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
The profile does not specify exact session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need to use lower bandwidth at certain times. Registered or accredited professionals often combine these practical benefits with the chosen therapeutic approach to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns.
