About Arham
Arham Abtahi is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues, career matters and anger. Sessions focus on real-life problems and practical ways to manage them.
Arham uses an integrative, relational approach. She pays attention to how early relationships shape present reactions. That includes looking at attachment patterns and how they influence communication and control issues in adulthood.
Her work draws on client-centred and existential ideas. That means conversations tend to be person-focused and open, while also addressing meaning, values and difficult life choices. Mindfulness methods and motivational interviewing are used to help with emotion regulation and to support behaviour change.
Arham has experience supporting people affected by domestic abuse and childhood sexual abuse, and she includes trauma-informed perspectives when relevant. She also helps with concerns such as abandonment, dissociation, codependency, body image and family of origin problems.
Sessions emphasise collaboration. Clients can expect to talk through current struggles, try practical strategies and reflect on how past patterns affect today. To begin, people follow the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How attachment, client-centred and mindfulness work online
Attachment-based work looks at current patterns that come from early relationships. Online discussions can identify triggers and help people practise different ways of responding to anger and connection problems. Client-centred work focuses on the person's own concerns and goals. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps you make sense of feelings so you can choose what to try next. Mindfulness approaches teach simple attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions in the moment.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss options with the client and decide together what to try first, based on needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find video helpful for face-to-face conversation, while others prefer a phone call for a brief check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can discuss which format would fit practical needs and therapy goals.
