About Farhad

Farhad Robinson is a counsellor registered with NCPS with three years' experience working in the United Kingdom. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and codependency among other concerns. He also supports people coping with life changes, ADHD, sleep problems and parenting strain.

Farhad uses a client-centred foundation in his work. That means sessions focus on the person's priorities and experience. He adapts tools from different approaches to fit what a person needs in the room rather than following a single method.

Psychodynamic ideas inform how he looks at patterns from earlier relationships and how these influence current behaviour. These conversations can help with attachment, abandonment worries, and repeated relationship patterns that leave someone putting others first.

In practical terms Farhad talks through feelings, behaviours and repeated responses. He will look at things like control issues, communication problems, dissociation, or impulsivity and link them back to how a person learned to cope. Sessions can include exploring past events, noticing present reactions, and testing different ways of responding.

People who struggle with guilt, shame, isolation or body image are offered a direct, steady working relationship. He also works with those managing bipolar symptoms, co-morbidity and compassion fatigue, and can discuss coaching-style approaches for practical life and career concerns.

To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and books a first session. Farhad then collaborates with them to set goals and decide which approaches to use in following sessions.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's concerns and choices at the heart of sessions. Online work with this approach focuses on what the client brings each week and uses the conversation to set priorities and next steps. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and earlier relationships that shape present behaviour; online sessions using this lens involve reflecting on repeated responses and how past experiences show up now.

Finding the right mix of approaches is usually a collaborative process. Farhad works with people to identify what feels most useful, combining client-centred conversation with psychodynamic exploration as needed. He will check in about goals and adjust the way he works as those goals change.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can help fit sessions into a busy life - it can be easier to schedule a short check-in at lunchtime, reduce travel time, or avoid being on camera when a quieter audio call will do. Registered or accredited professionals often use this flexibility to match sessions to practical needs and commitments.
