About Arfeen

Arfeen Afsar is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and parenting challenges. She also helps individuals facing grief, family conflict and difficulties linked to ADHD.

Her approach is warm and respectful and focused on the person in front of her. Arfeen works in a client-centred way, so sessions start from the client’s own priorities.

Background and approach

She listens closely and follows the pace set by the person seeking help. Conversations are used to clarify what matters most and to find small, practical steps forward. She pays attention to everyday problems such as communication breakdowns, feelings of guilt or shame, isolation and social anxiety.

Sessions aim to make those issues easier to manage by building understanding and practical coping strategies. Parents can bring concerns about the strain of raising children and receive support tailored to their situation. Arfeen adapts her style for different formats including video, phone and text-based sessions.

She explains the process, negotiates goals together and reviews progress as therapy continues. Simple language and short-term goals are common features of her work. People who value a non-judgemental listener and a collaborative way of working often find her approach helpful.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Arfeen focuses on creating a steady, manageable path towards clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.

Ways of working Arfeen names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care through online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement, follows the client’s agenda and helps them find their own solutions. This approach is often chosen for anxiety, stress, grief and relationship concerns because it focuses on what the individual wants to change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the journey. Arfeen will work together with each client to decide what feels most helpful. That collaborative process includes setting goals, checking progress and adjusting the way of working when needed.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation when discussion and non-verbal cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want ongoing brief contact, or need sessions outside usual hours. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family life and other commitments while still getting regular support from a registered professional.
