Evidence-based approaches and online care

Fariba works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical strategies and skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. These techniques involve structured methods to address stress, anxiety and coping with life transitions and aim to teach tools clients can use between sessions.

She also uses attachment-informed approaches that explore how early relationship patterns influence current behaviour and emotional responses. This work can be helpful for people dealing with attachment concerns, abandonment issues or relationship difficulties.

Additionally, Fariba draws on a strengths-based perspective that highlights a person’s existing resources and capabilities, helping clients build on what already works for them to meet their goals.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Fariba collaborates with each client to identify the best fit based on individual needs, goals and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to access support around work, family and other commitments. For many people this format increases continuity of care and makes it simpler to engage consistently with a suitably qualified or registered professional or therapist.
