About Naveed

Naveed Faizi is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and relationship or family problems. She communicates in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu.

Naveed uses a psychodynamic approach to help people understand patterns that affect how they think and behave. Sessions often look at past experiences and recurring feelings to make sense of current difficulties. This can be helpful for issues such as attachment problems, abandonment fears, or recurring relationship difficulties.

In a session she focuses on listening and talking through what feels most pressing. Conversations aim to make difficult feelings clearer and to spot repeated patterns that cause distress. She also works on practical issues like sleeping problems, coping with life changes, and managing addictive behaviours.

Clients may discuss body image, eating and food-related issues, grief, chronic illness or disability, and communication or commitment problems. Naveed can also talk about parenting strains, divorce and separation, and forgiveness when these come up. She describes work with LGBT concerns and emotional emptiness as part of her practice.

People who choose her often want a mix of exploring deeper causes and dealing with immediate problems. She asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to begin. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How psychodynamic work adapts to online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and repeating patterns. It helps people who notice recurring relationship problems, attachment issues, or persistent anxiety by naming unconscious themes and allowing time to reflect on them.

That approach is often paired with practical conversations about sleep, coping with life changes, and daily stress. Naveed will listen for patterns and use those observations to guide what to focus on; the client and therapist decide together what feels most useful and relevant to work on.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist discusses goals and preferences during the first sessions and suggests ways of working that suit the person. This is a collaborative decision, and adjustments are made as needs change.

Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific options here. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy week and make it easier to join from different locations. Some people prefer a talking session for in-depth reflection while others choose shorter check-ins when they need quick practical support.
