About Neda

Neda Yarahmadi offers a gentle, practical approach rooted in person-focused and cognitive techniques. She brings five years of counselling experience and works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life changes. Neda's profile notes a focus on trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and attachment-related difficulties, including codependency issues.

She trained in therapeutic counselling and completed postgraduate study in cognitive behavioural therapy. Neda combines client-centred listening with CBT tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational so clients can describe what is happening in day-to-day life.

Her work often includes looking at patterns that repeat in relationships, such as fear of abandonment or difficulty asserting needs. Neda also supports people coping with neurodiversity concerns like autism and ADHD, and with addiction or recovery difficulties. She aims to help clients build clearer boundaries and stronger self-understanding.

Practical strategies and small experiments between sessions are a common part of the process. Neda uses emotion-focused ideas when relationships and closeness are central to the issue. She also draws on existential questions when people are facing big life transitions or doubts about meaning.

People who meet with Neda can expect calm, attentive listening and a focus on skills they can use outside sessions. She encourages collaborative goal-setting and checks in about what is most helpful as work progresses.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early patterns shape current relationships. It looks at how people connect, respond to closeness and react to separation, which can help with intimacy and codependency concerns. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises warm, non-judgemental listening and follows the person's pace. This approach helps people feel heard and to explore what they value without pressure. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works with thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It uses simple experiments and practical strategies for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences, then try methods together to see what helps. That collaborative process means the approach can shift if something else seems more useful as sessions progress.

The practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit into a busy life and reduce travel time. They can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or caring responsibilities and to try short check-ins when needed. The biography does not specify which session formats are provided, so confirm the available options before booking to ensure the format fits individual needs.
