About Neda

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years' experience, Neda Yarahmadi works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, self-esteem and related issues. She also supports people dealing with grief, career strain, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD and a wide range of attachment and personality difficulties.

Neda uses client-centred ideas alongside cognitive behavioural approaches and attachment-focused work. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps as well as exploring patterns in relationships and self-belief. She aims to reduce unhelpful thinking and learn alternatives that fit each person's life.

Her background includes a CPCAB Level 4 diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a postgraduate Level 5 in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, completed in 2017. Those trainings inform her mix of talking therapies and structured techniques.

People come to her to talk through difficult feelings, to make sense of painful relationships, or to manage mood and attention differences in daily life. In sessions she works on identifying repeating patterns, changing negative self-talk, and building small, workable coping strategies.

Neda also offers support around complex presentations such as co-morbidity, dissociation, addiction, and histories of domestic violence. She draws on several therapeutic models to match the approach to the issue being addressed.

To begin, she asks clients to complete a short questionnaire and then plans a first meeting to set goals and practical steps. This helps shape whether more structured CBT, attachment-focused work, or client-centred conversations will be the main focus.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and attachment needs. It helps people understand how early relationships shape present reactions and close connections, which can be useful when intimacy or abandonment issues are present.

Client-centred therapy prioritises the client's perspective and pace. It involves listening closely and following what matters most to the person, useful for building self-esteem and exploring grief or identity questions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and coping skills development.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and life demands and together decide whether more structured CBT, attachment-focused exploration, or client-centred conversations best fit the aims. This is a collaborative decision and may shift over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family time, reduce travel, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats also allow shorter or telephone-based meetings when that better suits someone's day-to-day needs.
