About Robert
Counsellor Robert Karami is a BACP member with four years of practice in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and coping with life changes. He also pays attention to issues such as attachment, abandonment, body image and workplace difficulties.
Robert uses straightforward talking therapies. Sessions focus on what is causing distress now and on practical ways to manage it. He listens to personal history and looks for patterns that feed into current feelings and reactions.
His approach mixes different methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot and change unhelpful thinking. Client-Centred Therapy means sessions are shaped around the person in front of him. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports making values-based choices even when strong emotions are present.
Robert mentions an interest in trauma-focused and psychodynamic ideas where they help explain recurring problems. He aims to combine short-term tools with longer reflections about relationship patterns and past experiences. This can suit people who want both immediate coping strategies and deeper understanding.
He speaks English and Persian. The profile notes he is based in the United Kingdom and has lived experience of another culture, which he says informs his work. Before booking, check the current session formats and practical arrangements to ensure they suit your needs.
Therapeutic approaches and remote counselling
Robert draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings while taking actions that match what matters to you; it can help when avoidance or uncertainty stop you doing what you value. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers practical steps to reduce anxiety and improve mood.He also uses Client-Centred Therapy, which means the session is shaped around the person and their pace. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods and adapt them to your goals and preferences over time.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered. Please confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find remote counselling useful because it can fit into a lunch break, avoid travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use remote work to keep sessions practical and easier to schedule alongside everyday life.
