About Fariha

Fariha Hassan offers calm, direct support for people facing stress, anxiety and challenges at home. She introduces straightforward ways to manage strong feelings and to make small, realistic changes. Fariha writes plans with each person, matching steps to what they can manage in daily life.

She has nine years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her work has covered loss and grief, parenting strain, family conflict and self-esteem concerns.

Background and approach

She also helps people dealing with immigration-related stress, feelings of emptiness, and isolation. Sessions focus on what matters right now. Fariha aims to listen without judgement and to help clients name patterns that cause distress.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all programme. Fariha is experienced supporting women, and she pays attention to cultural and multicultural issues that shape people’s lives. She also has experience working with hearing-impaired clients and with people coping after disasters or separation.

Conversations are planned around each person’s goals, whether that is managing anxiety, navigating divorce and separation, rebuilding self-worth, or improving communication. Fariha encourages practical steps and ongoing reflection so change feels achievable.

How Fariha works online

Fariha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques, focusing on practical methods that help people manage symptoms and daily struggles. One common approach she uses involves teaching skills to regulate strong emotions and reduce anxiety through small, repeatable steps that can be practised between sessions. Another focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and replacing them with more balanced alternatives to improve mood and confidence.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about what feels most useful and try different methods to find the best match for their goals and preferences. Sessions are adjusted over time based on progress and what the client finds helpful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel and allowing appointments during a lunch break or between errands. If you plan to work remotely, confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Many people appreciate the convenience of joining from wherever they are, and the therapist will work with practicalities like session length and scheduling to suit everyday routines.
