About Naveed
Naveed Faizi is a counsellor who aims to help people find better rest and manage sleep problems alongside other life stresses. She speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu. Her approach is calm and respectful and she adapts conversations to each person’s needs.
Naveed works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low mood and sleeping difficulties. She also supports people facing trauma, eating and body image issues, addictions, grief and the impact of major life changes. Parenting strain, relationship problems and questions about identity, including LGBT matters, are also within her stated focus.
Her practice is informed by psychodynamic therapy, which looks at patterns from the past that affect how someone feels and sleeps now. Sessions use gentle, reflective conversation to notice recurring themes and emotional reactions. This can help people understand why certain thoughts or habits keep returning.
Naveed has four years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She sees international clients and welcomes speakers of the four languages she uses.
To begin, she asks people to describe the problems they want to change and what better sleep or daily functioning would look like. From there she and the client shape a plan that fits the person’s life and goals.
How psychodynamic work translates to online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and across time. It often involves talking about early experiences and current reactions to notice links between past and present. This approach can help with ongoing sleep troubles that relate to anxiety, unresolved grief or repeating emotional cycles.Conversations in therapy are collaborative. The therapist and client work together to decide which ideas and exercises to try. If an approach does not feel helpful, they review it and adjust the plan to better match the client’s goals and daily life.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and avoiding travel time for appointments. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or more flexible scheduling when needed. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as the therapist's profile does not list specific delivery options.
