About Naveed

Naveed Faizi is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating and body image concerns, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, ADHD and codependency. She speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu and accepts international clients.

Naveed uses psychodynamic therapy to help people understand patterns that keep repeating in their relationships and daily life. In sessions she focuses on the feelings, memories and attachments that shape how someone responds to others. That approach is often used when someone wants to understand why they put other people first or struggle to set boundaries.

Her work combines time to talk and reflect with attention to how past experiences influence present behaviour. Sessions look at recurrent themes such as abandonment fears, commitment worries, communication problems and emptiness. She also addresses practical concerns like sleep, eating and coping with life changes.

Naveed aims to keep sessions straightforward and direct. She asks clear questions and helps people notice patterns in small, everyday choices. This can make it easier to try different ways of responding to stressful moments.

If someone wants to begin, they are invited to use the platform’s matching process, complete a short questionnaire and book an initial session. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How psychodynamic work translates to online sessions

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how early relationships and repeated emotional patterns influence current life. It helps people notice why they might keep choosing others' needs first, repeat the same relationship dynamics, or feel stuck in certain roles. The approach often involves gentle exploration of feelings, memories and recurring themes to find practical ways to respond differently.

In practice, psychodynamic work online looks like regular conversations where the therapist and client reflect together on patterns that appear in day to day life. The therapist will check in about goals, listen for recurring themes such as abandonment or communication problems, and suggest small experiments to try between sessions. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process and the therapist will help decide what fits best for the person’s needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor the rhythm and length of sessions to match practical needs while focusing on the patterns someone wants to change.
