About Naveed

Naveed Faizi is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, sleeping problems, parenting challenges, coping with life changes and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu and international clients are accepted.

She draws on psychodynamic therapy to help people understand patterns that repeat in their relationships and feelings. In practice this means looking at past experiences and how they influence current choices and reactions. Conversations tend to focus on repeating themes, emotional responses and how old hurts show up in everyday life.

In a session she listens for recurring feelings such as abandonment, emptiness or difficulties with attachment. That material is then talked through so it becomes clearer and more manageable. She also works with issues around body image, eating and chronic health problems, and addresses practical concerns such as communication problems, commitment worries and coping after separation.

Naveed aims to create straightforward plans for progressing between sessions. She discusses patterns, possible small changes, and practical ways to test new approaches in day-to-day life. Her background and BACP registration are used to guide the work and to frame ongoing review of goals.

To start, people use the site matching process to schedule a first appointment and agree next steps. The counselling relationship is collaborative and focuses on exploring what matters now and what might come next.

Psychodynamic work and online counselling

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past relationships and early experiences shape current feelings and choices. It focuses on recurring themes such as attachment worries, abandonment fears or patterns that keep repeating. This approach is often useful for people wrestling with identity, emptiness, relationship patterns or long-standing emotional reactions.

In practice the therapist will listen for repeating emotional patterns and then help name them. The process is collaborative and exploratory. Together they will consider whether the psychodynamic approach fits the client's needs, or whether other ways of working should be tried to meet practical goals.

Please confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care when schedules or locations change.
