About Sarvin
Sarvin Afarinesh offers a calm, curious presence for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to start. She aims to help people reconnect with themselves and identify what they need to feel more fulfilled. Sarvin writes plainly and invites creative ways of working, such as drawing or writing, when that suits the person. She speaks English and Persian and is based in the United Kingdom.
Sarvin works in an integrative way that brings together psychodynamic, humanistic and existential ideas alongside body‑focused methods. In sessions she pays attention to thoughts, feelings, bodily responses and everyday behaviour. That means conversations may include noticing patterns from the past, exploring present choices, and trying small practical steps between meetings.
She has a particular interest in identity and cultural difference and helps people think about relationships, boundaries and codependency. Sarvin also supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, addiction, grief, low mood and eating or sleeping problems. Her aim is to help people understand themselves more fully and to build confidence in facing life changes.
Creativity and imagination are part of her work when helpful, using objects, writing or simple art to open up new ways of thinking. Sarvin trained in integrative psychotherapy and holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy and other counselling qualifications.
With over a decade of experience she combines reflective conversation and practical steps. She offers online sessions by voice or video call and invites people to explore difficult parts of life in a supportive space.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client‑centred therapy focuses on the person in the room, offering a non‑judgemental space to reflect on feelings and choices; this approach helps with low mood, anxiety and self esteem by prioritising the person’s experience. Existential therapy looks at meaning, values and life direction and can be useful when people face big life changes or uncertainty. Psychodynamic work explores patterns that come from past relationships and how they show up now, which can help with recurring relationship difficulties and attachment concerns.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. Sarvin will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods as the relationship develops. That means therapy can shift between exploring past patterns, practical short‑term steps and body‑based noticing according to what the person needs.
She offers online sessions by video or voice call. Please confirm current session options before booking to match your needs. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around everyday life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check‑in meetings when needed. Many people find the flexibility helps keep therapy consistent alongside work, family and other commitments.
