About Farhad
Farhad Robinson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, phobias and trauma. He also supports those dealing with depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD and sleep problems. He aims to make conversations feel straightforward and human from the first session.
He works from a client-centred base, which means he listens first and follows what matters to the person in the room. That approach creates space for people to talk about anger, grief, career choices or struggles with self-esteem without feeling rushed or judged.
Background and approach
Farhad also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. That can help spot long-standing habits around attachment, abandonment worries, impulsivity or isolation. Sessions combine gentle curiosity about the past with practical attention to what is happening now.
With three years of practice and the NCPS credential, he aims to tailor sessions to each person. He offers different ways to meet so people can choose what fits their life and needs. The focus is on small, manageable steps that feel realistic and relevant.
People who contact him usually begin with a short matching questionnaire and then book sessions that suit their schedule. He welcomes international clients and holds sessions in English.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Farhad uses a client-centred approach that means sessions begin with listening and follow what the person wants to work on. This style works well online because it focuses on the relationship and on clear, practical goals rather than rigid procedures.He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people recognise recurring patterns and past influences that shape current feelings. That perspective can be useful for issues such as attachment, abandonment concerns, codependency and long-term patterns of avoidance.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Farhad discusses options with each person and adapts methods to their needs, goals and preferences. He will check in about what is working and adjust the focus as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good when people prefer face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone wants a shorter check-in. Live chat or text messaging can fit into busy days and allow ongoing contact between sessions. These options give more flexibility for balancing work, family and other commitments.
