Naveed Faizi welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or problems around eating and self-esteem. She offers a calm space to talk, listen and begin to make small, practical changes. Sessions are guided to the individual and paced to what each person needs.

Naveed uses psychodynamic therapy to help people understand how past experiences shape current feelings and patterns. She works to uncover recurring themes that cause pain or get in the way of relationships and daily life.

Background and approach

The aim is to help clients notice these patterns and choose different responses over time. Her background includes professional practice across a range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, addictions, grief and sleep problems. She also supports people facing life transitions, parenting stresses, and issues linked to body image and chronic illness.

Naveed draws on four years of clinical experience to shape sessions around the concerns presented. Naveed is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers therapy in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. People who come to Naveed often start by describing how current difficulties affect daily life. From there she and the client form a plan together that fits goals and practical needs.

The work is steady, conversational, and aimed at clearer understanding and better choices.

Psychodynamic therapy and online support

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how earlier relationships and experiences influence current feelings and choices. It helps people make sense of repeating patterns, emotional reactions and difficulties in relationships by talking through memories and feelings in session.

Sessions may also focus on how trauma or loss shapes day-to-day life, helping clients link past events to present symptoms such as anxiety, low mood or disordered eating. This approach is useful when someone wants to understand the roots of a problem rather than only manage symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether psychodynamic methods fit their needs and goals. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses so adjustments can be made together.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, short live chat or messaging sessions can suit quick check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments, and to access counsellors who speak your language or are based elsewhere in the UK or internationally.
