Background and approach

Conversations are straightforward and respectful, with time set aside to reflect on what is most helpful for each person. Fatemeh uses a mix of approaches drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment thinking, and attachment-informed work. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, connect with personal values, and explore how relationship patterns affect wellbeing.

Sessions focus on real-life problems and small, doable changes. She has five years of professional experience and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes clinical work and teaching at Salford University where she has worked as a counsellor, clinical assessor and part-time lecturer.

Many clients begin with an initial conversation to agree goals and a simple plan. Fatemeh adapts the pace and techniques to each person, and she aims to create a calm, steady space for people to work through painful or confusing moments.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, phobias and low mood by shifting attention toward meaningful steps rather than getting stuck on worry.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In sessions the therapist helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours to reduce avoidance and anxious patterns common in phobias and OCD-like concerns.

Attachment-informed work explores how our close relationships shape expectations and responses. This can help when relationship patterns, intimacy issues or past trauma make it hard to connect or feel safe with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. This collaborative process makes it easier to try methods that fit the client’s situation and to adjust if something isn’t helping.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people keep a face-to-face rhythm without travel. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing reflection between sessions and quick check-ins when needed. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around busy lives.
