About Naveed
Naveed Faizi is a counsellor who aims to make early steps feel manageable for people under pressure. She works in plain, steady language and focuses on helping people reduce overwhelming anxiety, improve self‑esteem, and cope with grief or major life changes. Naveed encourages small, practical steps so clients can try new ways of handling difficult feelings.
She draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns that repeat over time.
Background and approach
That approach looks at how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships. Sessions give space to notice recurring feelings and to think about why certain situations trigger strong responses. Naveed has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which reflects recognised professional standards.
She offers sessions in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu for people across the United Kingdom and internationally. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, depression, trauma and abuse, eating and body image issues, addictions, ADHD, and relationship and family difficulties. In conversation she pays attention to what matters most to the client and adapts the pace accordingly.
Practical aims are discussed so therapy stays focused and useful rather than abstract. People can expect respectful, sensitive listening alongside guidance about how patterns of thinking and relating could be different. Naveed provides several online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.
She invites people to consider what would make talking easiest and will work with them to find an approachable way forward.
Psychodynamic insight and flexible online therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on how earlier experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people spot repeated patterns and understand why certain situations trigger strong emotions, which can be useful for anxiety, relationship strain, grief and long‑running worries.In sessions the therapist will listen for recurring themes in thoughts and relationships and gently link these to present problems. This can make it easier to try new responses instead of repeating old ones. The aim is to increase self‑understanding and practical coping over time.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to choose techniques and pacing that match their goals and preferences. Together they will review what is helping and change course if something does not fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversational experience, phone can be lighter on bandwidth or easier during a busy day, and chat or messaging can suit shorter check‑ins or those who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care.
