Neda Yarahmadi, BACP

Neda Yarahmadi is a counsellor who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits to help people manage stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She works with clients dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns and relationship strains. She holds BACP and has five years of experience supporting people through life changes and mood difficulties.

Neda uses straightforward, conversational sessions that centre on the person's experience. She encourages people to notice unhelpful thinking and everyday routines that keep problems going. Conversations aim to be practical and goal-focused while still making space for difficult feelings.

Her background includes training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and earlier vocational qualifications in therapeutic counselling. Neda draws on attachment-based ideas as well as emotionally-focused and existential perspectives to understand relationship patterns and identity questions. She adapts methods to what each person brings to a session.

Clients commonly bring concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD and difficulties related to family or past abuse. Neda also works with issues like body image, addiction, separation and codependency. The emphasis is on clear steps people can try between sessions and on building steadier coping over time.

Sessions are conducted in English and Neda accepts international clients. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.

How Neda’s approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps when someone wants to understand trust, closeness and repeated relationship problems. Client-centred counselling focuses on what the person brings to the room and offers active listening and reflection to help them find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and routines with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. Plans and techniques are adjusted over time so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a full in-person hour is not possible. It can also make certain exercises and worksheets simpler to share during or between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals, including this counsellor, can discuss what will work best for practical needs and schedules.
