Neda Yarahmadi
Compassionate, practical therapy for life challenges
About Neda
Neda Yarahmadi uses a client-centred approach to make therapy feel straightforward and human. She listens first and builds on what each person brings to the room. Sessions are practical and focused on everyday change rather than theory alone.
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments that can lift mood or reduce anxiety. Attachment-based work helps when relationships or trust are part of the problem.
Background and approach
Emotionally-focused ideas are used when feelings need a clearer voice. Over five years she has worked with people struggling with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related worries, low self-esteem and grief.
Her practice includes work with ADHD, bipolar concerns and the ripple effects of relationship breakdown. In sessions she breaks problems into manageable steps and co-designs practical coping strategies. Conversations cover what’s happening now, patterns that repeat, and what could be different.
Homework is offered when it helps people to practise outside sessions. Neda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in English and accepts international clients.
Appointments use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that fit their schedule. The focus is on steady progress and finding ways of living that feel more workable.

Sessions & fees
How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work pays attention to patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. Online sessions can use this approach to spot repeated interaction styles and practise new ways of relating. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural experiments. This approach works well in online appointments because exercises and homework can be shared between sessions and reviewed together.The right approach is typically decided together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, try out methods and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process means approaches may be mixed over time to match your goals and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a more face-to-face conversation and working with emotion in the moment. Phone sessions suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, keeping momentum between sessions, or when writing helps you think things through. These options make therapy flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
