Naveed Faizi, BACP

Naveed Faizi is a counsellor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes. She speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, and is based in the United Kingdom. She uses a psychodynamic approach to help people look at patterns that affect their daily life and relationships.

She works with issues including depression, trauma and abuse, eating and body-image concerns, addictions, grief and sleep problems. Naveed also supports people dealing with parenting strain, relationship difficulties, coping with chronic illness or pain, ADHD and questions around identity and sexual orientation. Her practice pays attention to how past experiences shape current feelings and choices.

Naveed draws on four years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion while tailoring conversations to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on practical understanding and small changes that feel possible.

She encourages honest, steady work and supports people taking the first steps towards change. The work often involves talking through difficult memories, spotting repeating patterns and trying different ways of responding in everyday life. Progress is built one step at a time.

To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How psychodynamic work fits with online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on patterns in feelings and relationships that often come from earlier life experiences. It involves talking through memories, emotions and recurring behaviours to understand why certain reactions happen. This approach can be useful for worries like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship difficulties.

Sessions look at how past experiences link to present difficulties, and the counsellor helps notice repeating themes and unconscious patterns. The therapist and client decide together which areas to focus on and whether to try different ways of responding. This collaborative process helps shape goals and the pace of work.

If you are considering online work, please confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed or meetings that do not require being on camera, which can help people maintain momentum between appointments.
